I couldn't resist to try to imagine Sidney in a ticklish situation, unlikely though it may be.

I don't even like "Alias", but what you've done is fantastic. A curiosity: How long does it take you to create something like either of the above?

Well, it varies. I have had some that came together in a few hours and others much longer.
For this, creating a Jen Garner character in Poser took me many hours over a few weeks ( not constant work, I went back and forth on it seeing what I liked/didn't about the changes I made). Once happy and I had all the props, then it was a matter of being a director, that took a few hours (with test render, lots of test renders).
Truthfully, putting a scene together can be a couple hours or many hours, depending on several factors, what I want to see, what progam am I porting the poser figures to to render, and how long the renders take. Bryce renders painfully slow, but I've liked many of the the results. Carrara is much much quicker, but with more lights, models and textures it can slow it some. If I keep it in poser, it is simpler. Poser renders somewhat slow at times but does give very nice results.
Sorry this is long winded and not terribly specific. Let me know if you have other questions (maybe I can answer them better).

Suffice it to say (since I am completely ignorant about your medium) that you have a lot of yourself invested in these pieces. Almost makes me want to give Alias another try! Thanks for answering my question . . . which prompts me to ask another: Do you work in this arena, or have goals to do so? Your talent is obvious.

Much thanks, glad you like these pics! Other than my work with MTJ Publishing, I don't do this for a living. Alas, it is just a passionate hobby.

More great images Restif! Once agin thanks for sharing. Really liked the inside info. I've been trying to find more info on how this type of art is created to decide if it's something i wanted to try to learn. So this was appreciated.
Sorry to hear this is more of a hobby with you as i would love to see you start a site that we could join, but i do understand time constraints.

I appreciate you taking time to comment on some of my renders. Glad you like them. I do have several comics I've put together with MTJ Publishing. If I ever do start a site, I'll let everyone know! Thanks again!

Very nice work indeed. I think Jennifer Garner (sob sob) now Afleck is absolutely beautiful. The foot tickling is wonderful but all the scenes with her in sleeveless outfits makes me hope for an underarm tickling scene either for real or in your artwork. :wavingguy
