Just a quick image in honour of the Hallowe'en season, at which time it was first displayed. Plus, I had accumulated all these "cool ghouls" on my PC, and I needed a place/excuse to show 'em off!

Not that the little'un is thanking me for those "Ghoulies and Ghosties and Long-Legged beasties...", I'm sure!

Updated 2001.10 My lament about the original image was that the standard Poser 4 Child was showing his age, compared to the much nicer 'Millennium-class' models (Victoria and Michael) used for the other figures featured in the image. In the summer of 2001, the first of the Millennium Children was released by DAZ 3d. As Halloween approached, I decided to revisit the earlier image, using this more advanced child model. I also decided to recreate the image in Vue d'Esprit 4, instead of Bryce, just for a change... I could have produced an enhanced version in Bryce 5, I'm sure; but Vue still has a definite edge in 'non-woody' plants - weeds, rushes, ferns, etc; and way cool lighting effects!
