Entry #16
Title: Future Selfie
Artist: UnifiedBrain
WIP link: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/4969096/#Comment_4969096
Credits/Comments: Back in the 70's, people started using office copiers for naughty purposes. Some things will likely never change. :)
This is V4 and a texture from the Genesis Supersuit applied to the V4 Bodysuit. The equipment is Petipet's PSI MedBay. Robots are a product called Alien-bot. Apparently, it is no longer in the store.
Processes include Carrara Text, Carrara Natural Functions - Water:Ripples, Sparrowhawke Edge falloff shader, and GMIC.
No postwork.
Entry #17
Title: Tractor Bait
Artist: UnifiedBrain
WIP link: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/4980966/#Comment_4980966
Credits/Comments: Characters are V5 and M4. Clothing is Jeanz for Genesis, and Town and Country for Genesis. The barn area is a combination of i13 Modern Barn (for IRAY), and Barn Yard (an older product). The tractor is Tractor F9N.
Processes include Carrara Text, Carrara Light Cone, Carrara Displacement, and GMIC. Because displacement in the scene exceeded my memory (8GB), I had to split it in 2 and combine it in PSE. It took less than a minute to do so. With one gig more of memory, there would have been no postwork.

Title: A final drag before killing Dorothy
Artist: UnifiedBrain
WIP link: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/4999056/#Comment_4999056

Title: Banzai Bandit - are those rocks or crocs ?!!!
Artist: Bunyip02
Comments - I had an exceptionally hard time choosing. Contributors really pushed all my buttons this time. I'm a huge fan of various Toon/NPR images, and folks did a great job. I always like an image that tells a story, and y'all told some great ones. And then there is film noir, and the Wizard of Oz - in the same freakin' render! But choose we must, so I did. Salute to all participants.
