I created this book in twenty-fours, start to finish—complete with cover! To save time I used Poser 4 as Poser 5 characters with their dynamic hair and clothing take up to two minutes to render (time counts in a 24/24 marathon) and sometimes it takes multiple renders to get the panel right. You may note that clothing fits a little oddly and colors are sometimes not well matched. Again, this is time critical stuff I could not afford to worry about. To do good 3D work, you spenjd a lot of time in post—and I had not that luxury. Still, this was a nifty little story that has taken on quite a life of its own…hope you enjoy it!!!
