Well, the seductive nature of 3d imagery has pretty much taken over my gallery space for the time being, at least. DAZ Studio has proven to be the tool for producing the kind of images I've been wanting to create for... ever, really.

Thank you for the favorite! You have a nice gallery of work!
You're welcome, and thanks! If you'd like to see some of my other cg work (nudes), check out my alternate page under the name Merak-11.
Thank you so much for the badge.
It's well deserved! I've bought some of your excellent figures, and I'm always amazed at the beautiful skin materials. :)
It makes me so happy to hear this... Thank you kindly.
Thanks for the watch 
Love your stuff. Really. Big fan of sci-fi, horror, fantasy media- that's how I got thru my childhood. I hope you are well.
