Artist's Comments
Part of the 100 Challenge, namely 9. Drive. And yes, I didn't take the definition I'm sure was planned when that list came about. I'm just chaotic like that.
 This one came from an idea that the incomparable  gave to me, and as soon as she suggested it, it lodged itself into the evil recesses of my head and demanded to be made. The poor cute lil fairy (especially the curled-toe socks and wings) is a major tip of the cap to  , whose work is all kinds of awesome. If you don't think so, I'm afraid I'll have to kick you in the back of the head until you think otherwise. Hope ya like it, too, Snow!The details: the car came from a source I can't find anymore (which likely means they have been brokered by Daz), and of course Bob the Retarded Basilisk is from Daz, with some tweaks to make him goofy courtesy o' me. Other artists who contributed their work to my sordid sense of statuification were Goldtassel and SWAM, Linwhite and Flirty. The characters were posed in Poser, then textured and rendered in Cinema 4D. So who's driving? And how did our cute little fairy friend become a hood ornament? That's a story I leave to your imaginations.... although I wouldn't turn down anyone writing it.  |

Still looks good regardless
*shudders*
That's our Bob!
Beautifully done! I love the whole set up and the way you've lit this and done the shaders! The petrified fairy made me laugh out loud immediately, knowing you like I do, I figured, poor little thing, wonder if Argo nailed her somehow when he was in Faery and stuck her on his car when he made it back to mortal lands? My sniggering scared my cat.
Yup, all Bob needs is some goggles and a scarf and he can look like the Dog... er Basilisk Who Wouldn't Be... (Farley Mowat reference there)
What can I say other than BOoOOoOooOoOB!

I thought about making her look a little more fearful, cuz that's sorta my trademarked thing, but a couple people mentioned that I've done so many of those that they'd like to see some other expressions once in a while. So this one had very little clue she was being targetted until she was already a hood ornament, I guess.

And yeah, it would be just terrible if Bob accidentally petrified some bikini-wearing cuties when the car bypassed a beach or something, huh?

I did like the way the lights worked out, too. C4D is a straight wonder for doing lights... I know there are systems (3DS Max, Maya, possibly even Truespace) that have better lighting systems, but I love the lights C4D does... spots, distants, tubes, omnis, areas, and negative lights, and there are so many ways to tweak each one. It's an amazing program, and I'm hoping to get the Vue plugins for it soon.
But you really can't go too wrong in a pic that has Bob in it. Especially with a formerly-moving model in there, too.
Glad ya like it!!!

And of COURSE I love it! You have a way of presenting scenes and characters that have a very special 'something'- character as well as humour. You always SEEM to casually throw something in that's exceedingly clever and always appropriate to the mood and (yes I'll use the same word) characters portrayed. Between Bob's expression and the fairy's presence... yup... that's an Argo Touch, I'm tellin ya!
HUGZ!

I absolutely love this pic for everything from the paint job of the car, the puzzled look on the faerie to the empty headed gaze of the world's most favored retarded Basilisk!
