Description

 
On a long and lonesome highway
East of Omaha
You can listen to the engine ..
Moanin' out his one note song
You can think about the woman or the girl
You knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering ..
The way they always do ..
When you're ridin' sixteen hours ..
And there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin'
You just wish the trip was through

Out there in the spotlight
You're a million miles away
And every ounce of energy
You try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body
Like the music that you play
Later in the evening
As you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers
Ringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette,
Rememberin' what she said . . .

Out here I am ..
On the road again
There I am ..
Up on the stage
Here I go ..
Playin' star again
There I go ..
Turn the page

—Bob Seger




Don't wait for something to happen this weekend. Go make it happen!
Do something amazing .. then come back and show us!

With warmth,

Terry

Yet another beauty who looks so soft and sexy in the light..perfect is a word that comes to mind...moments shared and the song and your poem were icing on the cake!

Well, it's no secret that soft n' sexy is a very reliable inspiration for my imagery.  

Yeah, thank God for women!.. or this would be a terribly meagre gallery exhibition.   

You might be surprised how young I was when I wrote this verse.  Sometimes I yearn to get back to him .. sit down a while and talk of all that was yet to pass and has passed during the years; for, as Seger wrote, there are moments when 'I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then'.

But as it goes .. we're just runnin' against the wind.

Thank you for your bright words, Brenda!

With warmth ...

I'm pretty sure "Oh my!" were the exact words that escaped my mouth when I first saw the original render for this portrait.

This remains one of the renders I am most happiest with .. even two years on.  She was burned in the first edition of Poser Pro.  I seriously doubt I could produce finer results in the P'Pro'12 if I tried.

It's the combination of satisfying results which tickles my ass.  The skin, of course, gets to happy first.  How often we dream of getting to this very texture .. where the pores are 'just right'!  Then the hair came out so feathery light .. as if Poser used Pantene Plus to wash it.     But the real deal clincher for me are her lips.  There are "Fixes" for every flaw in V4 nowadays .. but no one has yet crafted a fix for her mouth.  You know what I mean .. the default 'duck lips.'  As a Merchant you know .. you have to 'knead' the 'quack' out of the morph.  In this render .. there's no trace of that flaw.  Granted, Shiloh is crafted for Steffi' IV, but she's still V4 at heart.

The frozen moment of passion and longing is what led me back to this 'ancient' bit of verse.  "As we took what time would give."  To this day .. I don't know a better way to live.

With dear warmth ...
