Many years ago, I came cross videos of practitioners of aesthetic callisthenics - like jugglers who are also artistic performers. One prop they used was the bugengg or S-curve. I decided to model the S-curve prop and made a short animation in Poser software.
(This video is very lo-res, sorry. It was made a long time ago and my hardware could not support a large animation render back in those days.)
I modelled the S-curve in SketchUp, finished in Shade3D version 10, then imported it into Poser software.
I entitled this one "Good Help Is Hard To Find These Days"
ABOVE and BELOW: Forgotten by the 3D CG community. I tried to make him into a game-style hero below.
(ABOVE:) I modelled and textured for practice. I really needed night-time high-rise cityscapes back in the day but no one seemd to have created them, so I had to learn how to make my own.
A Poser Prop Set created by Juniper Chew, September 2013
This set includes a baked Chinese cookie in the shape of a pig, usually sold during the Mid-Autumn Festival of the Chinese Lunar Calendar. Shopkeepers will sell the pig cookie in a miniature traditional pig cage (was made of colourful wicker long ago; these days, made of red plastic). In earlier times, real pigs were transported to market in traditional cages just like these.
I created the miniature cage in Sketchup 8 and finished it in Shade 10. I created texture for it using GIMP and paintDotNet. I finished up the cage with material settings in Poser Pro 2014.
I created the pig cookie using SculptGL and Hexagon. I finished it up in Poser Pro 2014 using two rounds of magnet deformations.
The cage is parented to the cookie. I have not re-sized the prop set to Poser people dimensions. Please adjust the size to about 30 cm or about 5 inches relative to your Poser people. This is a palm-size snack for children.
Ikemen (イケメン ) is Japanese slang for cool-looking guy. I tried to make the brutish and inelegant features of the PHMale a little more Ilemen-like, using Poser.
This was a sweatdrop render. The scene was set up and rendered using Poser software. Detailed informtation aboutt he scene is on the image itself.
I added a post-render border using Fotor.
I tried to get the effect inside Poser, by adjusting textures, lighting, and render settings. More details are on the image itself. Back in those days, the software did not have the same rendering functions as Poser Pro 11 and higher, so it was not as easy to get this type of Non-Photorealistic render.
I created the skull headpiece for her. I created a custom face texture and facial features for the figure. I used 3rd-party contents as well.
This figure appears not to be available anymore. I purchased the product from Renderosity, and from my records, this render was done in 2013.
Yeah, the fan art bot name is Fuchikoma. I assembled the poses and scene. It is supposed to be a twilight scene, so the light is a bit weird. Composed and rendered using Poser software.
Composed and rendered by Juniper Chew using Poser Pro 2012, 2013_03_24. Near_Me figure by Smith Micro. Hatsune Miku character clothing set by Casiopea. Kagai Rin character clothing set by Casiopea. FairyTail by Anton and Majik, custom shaders by me. Stage from Sketchup 3DWarehouse. Music notes textures created using ParticleView.
She's typically anime style... I made her into an adventurer. I may want to tune this image later.
I found these while trawling my older projects for upload to this part of my website. I have uploaded a collage version to my Pixiv gallery.
I know that this figure definitely required clothing and accessories which had to be re-fitted for her rigging and shape. Somehow, all those years ago, I managed to put together this scene with her in it. Pirate Aniko... I may want to try tuning this image.
I don't remember why I even made her like a space cadet... haha... Neither do I recall why this render has a messy border...
This is a figure licensed (c) Gugenka from CS-REPOERTERS.INC/YUNO
I imported the FBX into Poser and adjusted the materials. I posed the figure and rendered in Poser. I removed the socks.
Eve is a rigged figure by J Gonzales and is found at Mixamo. I added an animation and exported as FBX. I imported the FBX into Poser software. More people should use FBX in Poser softare, in my opinion.
