Well, let's see some cucumbers



My Lempicka



Mycetrioli


----- WUZ DAT? -----

I am not sure about the sense of all this, but since I'm producing (what I think are) nice Poser images and stories, let's present (a small choice of) them.

The First one, "Mylempicka", is an attempt to recreate the Tamara de Lempicka magic.
The second one is from a personal science fiction series: "Mycetrioli" (literally: "My cucumbers").

----- WUZ GOING ON? -----

I won't even try to explain what's going on in both stories. Suffice to say that My beautiful Lempicka must arise from her grave and has to crawl for life, hungry for only two things: old vinyl records of Donovan Leich and fresh human brains!
While in the Mycetrioli science fiction cycle, cucumbers turn really bad, and our scantily clothed martyresses and assorted holy women have to endure not only continuous pollination harassment, but also all the usual nasty parthenocarpic humiliations and flowering degradation practices that such fruity cucurbitaceae almost always force onto innocent bystanders.


----- HOW DID DO? -----

All images were made with Poser using either the G2 figures, or mike, or Victoria 4 ("Vicky 4" by daz3d): software and software characters that anyone with brain level 'cucumber' could find on the web for free, but that we all should instead buy.
If you don't want to buy software, instead of stealing it, just ditch windows and use linux (as by all means you should do indeed, for the speed, for the power and for the total control), and in that case, in order to recreate this kind of stuff, you could run -with wine- either poser 4 or poser 5 (both now in the "abandonware" limbo, and thus easily available on the web).
Alternatively you may even go "full linux" and use the promising 'makehuman' (and of course the powerful blender) instead. Once you learn how to use the gimp and (especially) blender, you'll beat the pants off any zombie still happily paying through his nose in order to use commercial appz à la photoshop, or max3d & maya.
