Sounds familiar, huh? The bell is a model I made myself; the image was composed and rendered in Poser, with final work done in Photopaint to enhance the lighting (the reflections are real, though ) Tubular Belle 2006 (nudity) Since I was going for a pin-up look, I modified the Virgin logo to evoke the signature of Vargas, one of the best-known of the pin-up artists.

Tracey, I always wondered what you looked like. Am really looking forward to more such poses in the future. -------------- "In the land of the Dacotahs, Where the Falls of Minnehaha Flash and gleam among the oak-trees, Laugh and leap into the valley." - Song of Hiawatha Back to top

Ptrope Group: Members Posts: 10 Joined: May 2004 Posted: Aug. 10 2006, 23:17 TubularBelle, you're more than welcome to use that as your avatar - I'd be honored. I haven't been around here much in the past year, and didn't know you were here until I looked at one of my old threads in this very same forum and saw your post there . As I said, I had done this idea back in 2003, when I wasn't quite as skilled as I've become since, and I just decided to revisit the image; it's a happy coincidence to find you here, as well . BTW, here is the original 2003 version: Tubular Belle 2003 Back to top
