Adventures In XNA Posing Entry 73: Shadow Depth & Lighting Edition

Hello everyone and welcome to an early afternoon entry. This week, I decided to get some of my earlier pictures I took and compare side-by-side with these new pics I took with increased shadow depth and adjusted lighting. Take a look yourself and see the differences:

The bottom pics are the first untouched ones while the tops are the newly adjusted ones. take a good look at these and tell if you like the shadow depth pictures much better.

Thats it for this week, at finally an earlier date. I'm currently downloading alot of new models so expect many pics next week (especially now that my assignments are being done much earlier.) See you next week.

Adventures In XNA Posing Entry 72: Weapons Edition

Greetings and welcome to an afternoon edition. Lets waste no time and squeeze in some new pictures this week:

Sword fight (The Walk)

Decided to go for the sword story I had started earlier, but start it in a interesting way. It'll get interesting from here.

The Hammer (Part 1)

So after remembering that I had shao Kahn's Hammer, I decided to turn that into an interesting storyline itself. Where it goes on from here, well you'll be staying tuned for it thats for sure.

Thats it for me today, With this week's schedule, I'll be able to do more pictures next week. See you next time.

Adventures In XNA Posing Entry 71: Short Evening Edition

Welcome to an kinda late evening edition and unfortunately a short one at that. With school back in session, my time to make these is now about limited. Anyhow, lets soldier and start with a question:

Shadow Depth

So for the first time, I've actually begun to play around alot with the Shadow depth today and decided to test this with several pictures at varying degrees:

High

Mid

Low

Depending on how popular they are, I'll likely go with that amount of Shadow depth for future pictures.

School Girls (Lili & Asuka)

And to commemorate the first two weeks of  school, here's two themed pictures featuring two of everyone's favorite students. 

And thats in for now, again I'd really appreciate some feedback on the Shadow of depth pictures as it'll determine the direction for me to go with my pictures from now on. Hopefully I can find some time between my assignments to sqeeze in more pictures. See you next week.

Adventures In XNA Posing Entry 70: Labor Day Edition

Welcome to the 70th entry, on a monday evening that falls on Labor day. Admittingly this was going to go up earlier, but a few difficulties made that impossible. Anyhow, a huge amount of content for today has been made featuring both new and previously forgotten models. So lets get to it:

 Julia Cowgirl Bikini

At long last (and at a interesting timing), the model has finally been uploaded and ready for download on my deviantart account. Its a proud moment and its only the start of many more inspired retextures

Comparison: Pedrocroft Vs changinformica

So I came across a new Julia TTT2 model only to realize I already had a model. So that prompted me to get these and take a closer look. The one on the left is the one by changinformica and the one on the right is by Pedrocroft. After looking at both, the only thing that really seperates them is one being abit lighter in colors. Apart from that, both are really good models so its abit impossible to say which is better. I guess really it all comes down to what you prefer because to me, they are very good quality models.

Kazuya Suit

After only finding T6 models, I finally stubled across a TTT2 model and its far more detailed then said models. Of course it doesn't take much to pose him with a look that is all business because he just exudes a mood that's just that.

Anna Business Queen

Unknown to me, I appearently downloaded this when I got the Nina Buisiness Queen model and just now discovered it. Looks like I now have toe potential for some quite interesting and possibly humourous pics of the two competing for what else...Business.

Jade and Jonah Shepard (Dress)

At long last, my custom Shepards are back and in Dress form. These will be having a custom design put on them and I possibly might open up to request for retexturing other custom shepards.

And thats it for this week. Apoligies for lateness but at least its posted still in the daytime and not nightitme. Of course with this being the first monday of september, that means summer is officially over so let's enjoy the last summer themed image, featuring a Lara Bikini model I forgot about:

See you next Time.

Adventures In XNA Posing Entry 69: Sunday night edition.

Welcome to an entry that finally makes it back to a sunday.  I'll admit the content is very short, but its here so lets get it over with:

Asuka Bedwear (WIP)

This is a custom I started on doing months ago, but never got alot done with. Admittingly its essentially a recolor of her bikini, but I always thought with a color change it could actually become what she wears to bed. Not sure what else to do but I'll keep working on it.

Lili on the computer

 So I just randomly threw this together and wasn't expecting anything. However, I actually liked how it turned out and after seeing a forum I'm on going completely nuts regarding some news, I decided to make a meme out of it:

Feel free to use this whenever your local forums have a freakout of massive proportions.

Thats it for me tonight, next week will be much earlier and alot more content. See you next time.

Adventures In XNA Posing Entry 68: Monday Evening Edition

Welcome to unfortunately another late entry. Again, I've just gotten carried with things and add the fact that now Online appears to be working well with my PS3, I've just completely forgot all about this. Anyhow, onto the pics:

First pics for an poster I originally was working on and now that I have found them, I'm actually going back to work on them.

Mudcrab legs

Found these some time ago and am completely unsure how to use it. Its nicely made, but it has no bones so its somewhat limited. I can only assume you'd only use this to dress a seafood theme plate otherwise its abit limited as a prop.

Felicia (Darkstalkers)

One of childhood memories (from a show I may or may not have been too young to watch) is this characther so when I came across this model, I had to download it. Didn't do much posing I'll admit as I did this in a hurry yesterday (only to just give up), but I overall love it. Possibility is what this characther has in spades, even the wiskers are movable. I definately have to do  more posing with this model.

Jun Piano Stadium Performance

After doing the rock stage and finding a stadium model I downloaded a year ago, I decided to try this out. Made this on Saturday so I wasn't as much in a hurry but given that I couldn't get rid of some objects on it, I was also limited in where I could move the piano or Jun so only these shots were managed. With the limits I had, I think it turned out great. 

Eliza Couch pose

Another one that was made in a hurry just to get things going, this was slated to have more pics, but this was all I managed. I believe I make many more better pics.

Thats it for this week, again I apoligize as I just haven't had my focus on this at all two weeks in a row. I mean it this time when I say that the next entry will be back on Sunday. Until then, see you next time.

Adventures In XNA Posing Entry 67: Two days late edition

I just would like to apoligize for posting this so late. I just didn't have anything done for sunday and completely forgot about it yesterday so here's unfortunately a very lacking entry.

So thats it for today. As I post this, I'm actually working on pics for this sunday  so there won't be another entry this bad. See you next time.
