    I thought the wedding cake you used looked excellent. You've done an excellent job getting the slice to look like it belongs to that cake as well. Shame about the wedding cake topper, but you've done a great job with the images regardless. Same-sex wedding toppers (and weddings) will hopefully be common place in the future anyway - and hopefully well before their time.

    Boyd and Owen look happy with their wedding cake. And wedding.

    This is actually a remake of an earlier one, that I have in the gallery using most of the same props, but a newer improved Boyd.

     

    love the lighting and brilliant color here!!

    It takes a while for the guys to make it to the altar. Although they are a couple for years and Boyd is quite eager to marry Owen, Owen requires time to recover from his last mission and Boyd doesn’t want to push Owen. He wants Owen to want to get married as much as he does so he is willing to wait and do some old fashioned courting in the meantime.

    Owen for the most part in love with Boyd... he was willing to marry him before he gets the body and  is attracted to his new body even though he really is BIG. He wants Boyd, but he has concerns that Boyd has not had his human body long enough to get married... so,he puts on the brakes a little.. probably for both of their sakes.

    thanks. My favorite emissive light on the door is responsible. I just added the emissive red orange light to the door behind Boyd and it lights the room well. =)

    So Peyton hair... Anyone bought it? I can't really see the hairline on the guy version.... The promos have it really dark. https://www.daz3d.com/peyton-hair-for-genesis-8

    We have had a few male releases somewhat buried amongst the Mika stuff and the female releases today.

    One is Recreation Poses which seem to go with Prison Yard.... I did buy them, but don't have Prison yard, so maybe I'll use the at the gym instead. https://www.daz3d.com/recreation-hour-poses

    There is also Killmonger hair. The hair itself looks great, but I had a bit of trouble with the beard portion. I'll have to play more with it. https://www.daz3d.com/killmonger-hair-and-beard-for-genesis-3-and-8

    Then there is Billbob outfit and the mullet style hair. The pants and shirt itself will be useful for renders....https://www.daz3d.com/billy-bob-outfit-for-genesis-8-male-s

    I also recently have been using the H&C trench coat outfit, and it is super nice. https://www.daz3d.com/hc-trench-coat-outfit-for-genesis-8-males  The promos don't do this one justice. Too bad, it has no extra textures, but that's what we bought the suit texture set for!

    This hair also has a unisex male version, but I'm not sure how I like it based on the promos if anyone has it, let me know: https://www.daz3d.com/morena-hair-for-genesis-3-and-8

    Lee Bowes-Russell  on Patreon also has a nice set of male clothing, and a character for Patrons available. I signed up, and the pants and shirt outfit is very nice.

    Prison Yard is 60% off with PC+ purchase. It is documented in Jack's "used to be Thursday" thread and probably the newsletter.

  • Serene NightSerene Night Posts: 17,651

    D’oh. It didn’t come up on sale for me because.... I already own it. Lol.

    Osher hair, looks really good on Boyd I think.

    Oh that Osher hair is just gorgeous on him- it really accents his perfect profile. Dang, now I have to get that hair!

  • barbultbarbult Posts: 24,248

    I think it makes him look much younger.

    Aww... Thanks

    Boyd was always meant to have long hair, but the lack of good hairlines on the men's ponytails kind of made it hard to find a style I could stand looking at. Many ponys for dudes have the female hairlines or something akin to an elvis look with a weird popadour thing going on. Having had long hair most of my life I know that gravity doesn't allow you to have a huge bouffant do, and a ponytail at the same time without a lot of styling and spray.

    Osher's hair is on sale right now... 54% off.

    Owen likes the long hair- a lot. He thinks Boyds face is handsome, why cover it up? He will never admit it since it will hurt Boyd's feelings but he doesn't like the soul patch..... cheeky

    Here, Owen and Boyd ride Boyd's motorcyle.

    Its a night scene, so it took a ton of time to render... They both like to be in the drivers seat so they take turns.

    Topaz Studio's Urban Glow will give a nice bloom to your bike's headlights.

    I notice the wind in Boyd's hair, the dust kicked up by the tires, and the dog in the shadows. I love the little details you always add. Owen needs a tighter grip on Boyd, and Boyd's hand doesn't appear to be gripping anything. His hand looks empty to me.

    That’s good feedback. I actually corrected Owen’s  hands but for some reason edited the wrong one. Oops. I shall  correct that.

    Okay, here I have revised  this. I didn't re-do the whole thing... Just a spot render here and there.... Heh. =-)

    Here is a quick render of the two recent purchases. Owen's wearing the H&C Checkered Shirt outift for Genesis 8 Males. Boyd is wearing the Billy Bob shirt and jeans.

    I really like both outfits... The H&C outfit is nice and cleancut. From some angles it can look a bit high waisted. It needs a lowrise morph I think.

    The Billy Bob outfit looks nice, and has a great waistline. There is some modelled wrinkles on the legs-that llooked a bit funky on Boyd when he was sitting. I will have to investigate it a bit more.

    The motorcycle and men chatting look so natural!

    Hell, I agree. XD

    This...This I like for many, many reasons.  I'll definitely agree that the hair does accent his facial structure extremely well (and I'm partial to long hair on my men ;) ), but the warmth of the lighting and the intimacy of the pose between them is fantastic.

    Nicely done on the bike renders as well!

    Thanks! I do admit that image resonates with me too! thanks for the nice comments.

  • ArtsyDragonArtsyDragon Posts: 682

    Another wonderful image to enjoy while waking up. I'm always excited to see what new vingettes are posted here. Thank you for all your hard work, @Serene Night.

    Really like the bike scene. I didn't see it before you fixed it so can't comment on any changes but I do like how it finally turned out.

  • Serene NightSerene Night Posts: 17,651

    There were no bike riding poses for this set. So I reused  the yamaki rapture ones but the handle bars are much higher on this bike and Owen is much shorter than ...Mr. Michaels so had to improvise and have him peer around  but the scene is a bit dark so had trouble seeing the hands were slightly off.

    Owen pauses for a drink, and I got to practice my painterly technique on him and Boyd.

    This one I tried using a canvas, and a regular morguefile photo altered in photoshop in the background. I think it turned out well.

    Boyd with long hair, I like it!  Love the motorcycle render, but all of them are fun.

    Yes, I have to admit long hair it suits Boyd, sometimes long hair is not so suitable.

    Hah... glad Boyd’s long hair is popular. Boyd changes his look from time to time, but since Owen likes it long it is likely to stay that way longer than other styles.

    Owen doesn’t change his hair much, I’ll have to see what it looks like long. He is drafted young and  isn’t allowed to alter his appearance. Maybe when he is out of the military he will grow it out.

    3 male outfits released today and a hair. Was this a failed male teen pro bundle? At any rate, I'll pick up the clothing and the hair to support men's content creators.

    I can't really use the teen boys though... I hardly ever render kids... So no sale on that for me.

    I have to agree that the longer hair makes Boyd look younger. But the style really does suit him in those renders. Lovely work as usual.
