Dragon Menace

*******

Inspired by first TPK (Total Party Kill) in my Ad&d gaming group 1995. Story behind it is that we were trying to help villagers that suffering attacks by strange creatures. Those were six ogre magis with polymorphing ability that had young corrupted bronze dragon. We met them all together in an old dwarven mine in the throne room.

Wanderer · May 2018

I have one other question. I know I asked something similar before about using shaders from the same pack or assets from the same product, but what about a figure? If I use a figure from a store product, does each use of that figure count toward the 5 paid item limit? I'm just trying not to break any rules.

My guess would be no. The counts are for the number of products used in your image - the number of times a particular product is used within the image isn't important. So if you take V8 and use her five times in your scene, that's one paid item, not five. Similarly, if you dress each one in the same wilmap dress, that's one freebie, not five.

Thank you! I appreciate your help (and your art--April showers, bring her a towel still makes me chuckle).

I guess that answers my other question as well since it looks like maybe someone deleted it, and that would mean the item I linked to must be pirated. (Sorry for that then.) Some websites seem fairly legit, so one must be careful.

I tweaked a few materials here and there. All done within Daz Studio. No post work except for the watermark.

Wanderer · May 2018

Okay, here is my 1st entry for the month. I think there are lots of lovely images already.

Software: Daz Studio for almost all of it. A bit done in Anim8or. Another bit altered slightly in PSP or Photoshop (I honestly don't remember which one did the trick).

Title: The Referee's Error

"Well, what do you know, Grymfurax, Slayer of Worlds--You did get a natural 20 on that roll. Silly me. It was good of you to ur... er... nudge me to take a second look. So, now that you have surprised the entire intrepid band of adv-insolent intruders, what are you going to do next?"

The humor of this piece relies on some tropes familiar to players of RPG's: the natural 20, perhaps best explained here, the phrase "intrepid band of adventurers," first use of which--so far as I know, appears here in 1889 (often, but not always prefaced with "When last we left our... "), and the type of player who always has to be right, even when the die roll says otherwise. To all of you, I dedicate this work. Please note: In case it isn't obvious, the die roll in the image cannot possibly be a natural 20.

Paid:
1. Shaders for miniatures, gemstone dragon eyes, eyeglasses (except for lens),firebowls, dungeon room, and table from https://www.daz3d.com/mec4d-pbs-shaders-vol-2-for-iray
2. Ollie 8 from https://www.daz3d.com/ollie-8

Please note: The artist of the fantasy miniatures used in the image has released something like 300 free miniatures over at Shapeways. He was happy with my image and gave me his approval, so long as I'm not using them commercially. He requested that I share a link to his Patreon account, which for his generosity is a small reward. I wanted to tell others because these are simply beautiful. Please consider visiting his Patreon account here and checking out his other work at Shapeways.

Wanderer · May 2018

Okay, so I posted this image in my thread 15 minutes after posting it here. I'm afraid I may have disqualified it. If so, I apologize.

chris-2599934 · May 2018

RPGs for giant wyrms, eh, Wanderer? That could catch on! I suggest you call it "Dragons and Dungeons"

Wanderer · May 2018

Hahaha... well, that's not a bad idea. Even giant wyrms need to relax in between slaying worlds, sipping tea, and all the other wonderful things I see them doing in these lovely images. I can't wait to have a wall of cool images like yours to feature in my signature. That tin-man is really excellent. Singing in the rain really deserved that honor, too. I like that ship at sea as well. They're all good, but those are my favorites. And OMG, I think I just realized... I think we both used the same hairs for our couples. Did you also change her hair to a darker color? I didn't see that before, but now it looks like I just copied you. Oh well, how many decent free hairs are out there for these figures?

nomad-ads_8ecd56922e · May 2018

Upon seeing "Even giant wyrms need to relax in between slaying worlds, sipping tea..." the first thing I thought of was THIS! :D :D :D

Wanderer · May 2018

Sort of death metal with tea; I think Grymfurax would be most delighted by the prospect. And I got a laugh out of it in spite of myself. Thank you for sharing, Nomad.

Wanderer · May 2018

I really hope I didn't ruin it by posting in my thread, but if so I'm still happy with the image.

OrionPax09 · May 2018

Software: Daz Studio for almost all of it. A bit done in Anim8or. Another bit altered slightly in PSP or Photoshop (I honestly don't remember which one did the trick).

Title: The Referee's Error

"Well, what do you know, Grymfurax, Slayer of Worlds--You did get a natural 20 on that roll. Silly me. It was good of you to ur... er... nudge me to take a second look. So, now that you have surprised the entire intrepid band of adv-insolent intruders, what are you going to do next?"

The humor of this piece relies on some tropes familiar to players of RPG's: the natural 20, perhaps best explained here, the phrase "intrepid band of adventurers," first use of which--so far as I know, appears here in 1889 (often, but not always prefaced with "When last we left our... "), and the type of player who always has to be right, even when the die roll says otherwise. To all of you, I dedicate this work. Please note: In case it isn't obvious, the die roll in the image cannot possibly be a natural 20.

Please note: The artist of the fantasy miniatures used in the image has released something like 300 free miniatures over at Shapeways. He was happy with my image and gave me his approval, so long as I'm not using them commercially. He requested that I share a link to his Patreon account, which for his generosity is a small reward. I wanted to tell others because these are simply beautiful. Please consider visiting his Patreon account here and checking out his other work at Shapeways.

Okay, so I posted this image in my thread 15 minutes after posting it here. I'm afraid I may have disqualified it. If so, I apologize.

You are fine @Wanderer

Smoorg told his "step-daughter" Myra that he was being very generous in allowing her to marry. She knew it was a lie and that he only wanted the big dowry that a wealthy son-in-law could offer. And also, there was the small matter of the suitors being reptiles...
