inspiration:
Time In A Bottle
-Jim Croce
If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
'Til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with
If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you

Title: Time Kids
Artist: head wax
Category: general
WIP Links: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/3536376/#Comment_3536376
Products Used: K45 and some Digital Carver shaders
Interpretation: The Kid here appears as multiples because he keeps coming back to the same location in time and space but using initial reference points that are cohesive but temporally seperated by milliseconds. He is a product of a series
of interstituals circuloctaed on a Daz Soonhump and a prolapse of Carrara 9, a coherency that took place sometime in the 22nd century under the auspices of the Chinese Government during the presidency
of Donald Trump the 67th.

Products Used: Carrara, Photoshop, After Effects
Used Carrara for everything except had to jump into Photoshop to apply a smooth gradient for the terrain for the castle. I then converted the terrain to a vertex model and added subdivsion and used displacement painting to roghen it up. The background wavy thing was modeled as concentric circles, then applied a Wave Modifier and used a Ripple shader in the alpha channel. Some post work in After Effects.

Would like to add more positive comments on other renders, but will only add one, to Stezza for his portable time machine - a ridiculously fine piece of modeling. If he had posted this in large format, my senses would have been overwhelmed, and I would have been forced to alter my votes. :)
