OK, we will continue with our queen statue today, so why chit-chat, let’s get going.
This is something I tried to make as someone made an art request on Dundjinni Forum, and I thought it would be something fun to test.
I got tons of stuff for DAZ 3D, and this was a chance to try to use some of all those downloaded freebies.
So, I’ve succeeded with something I set out to do, which was much harder that I first thought. Much harder because I didn’t have the right tools and didn’t fully understand the intricate file structures of a posable poser file, but, here is how I did it, using the tools at hand, mostly DAZ Studio3.
For my underground cave, I need some broken pieces of walls, brick walls, and I’ve been using some pieces I’ve rendered with Carrara 8 from the Temple Ruins set, but I needed something different.
Now I will show something that we hopefully have played, as it will be a spoiler, or could be. We’re gonna make two things today, and I will try not to spoil too much if we haven’t played this yet. I need something strange, occult or magical, some kind of bowl with a burning magical fire in it.
I needed some wall mounted lights for the map, electric lamps that look modern but still not too modern. I think they look too modern for 1930, but I wasn’t around at the time and finding picture of wall mounted lamps from that time was really hard.
For a map I’m working on, I need a small ventilation tower, is tower the right word? Anyway, something that sits on the ground enabling air to move down to the underground tunnels. I’ve decided to give Carrara 8 a real go today, and make an object using it from scratch.
So we got some great railroad tracks that we want to make even better. Today we will do that. I think we can make them look really great.
As I’m working on the adventure “Wicked Times: London Calling” for Operation:Fallen Reich, which has the London Underground as a place of fun, I needed some new railroad tracks. I’ve used Carls FilterForge filter before, but I though it was time to make them i 3D.

For a map I’m working on, I needed a nice wall to surround a garden, so I decided to make one.
Have you ever heard that line before from me?
