RPG Art


GearHeading


This was done for the Traveller Gearhead Webring.  I started with skeleton figure.  The wrench object is from Zygote's Parts & Props package.  I increased the scale of the wrench and moved it in place.  The graph paper background is part of the standard Poser3 package.


GEARHEAD #2

This was also done for the Traveller Gearhead Webring. I found the 3-D gear and imported it into Poser. A little movement and making other body parts non-visable, and then export.
Spartan Logo

Logo I knocked together using props from the Poser Forum. It's for Steele's Spartans. That is one of the mercenary groups in our Battletech Campaign.

Some guy who calls himself "SpartanThunder" was using this as his icon for some football forum. Not that I really mind, but he could at least host the image locally and give me some credit for designing the image on his page.  Since he wasn't hosting the image locally, I renamed the copy I use at my site and replaced the image he was linking to with one of two Rhinos having sex.
Well, lather me up and call me Charlie! The fornicating San Jose State Sports Fan site is using the image.

Yet, they scarfed the Steele's Spartans logo from my site, and stuck on theirs with not even a mention of where they got the logo from and not even a request to me for my "prior written permission."  They ended up having a slick image made, based on mine, and using that.  Of course, they never responded to my emails about the use of my image.
