I imported parts of the scene into B3D to get an idea of scale and
positioning. I'll leave the model at <0,0,0>, What handiness do you
want? (It can always be changed by scale -1 * x

I got your second thoughts. No point in struggling with PoseRay if
you've not used it before.

Is was wondering if it would've been better if the character was a
lumber jack with the logo slung over his shoulder like an axe ;-)

From the last shot I posted what I'm going for is the camera looking
through the orb/logo -> <0,0,0> (just the other side of the arch
support) ... At that angle the character's face isn't seen much, but
make her somewhere between amazed and awe struck looking at the object

like that! Check out what Sam did for the leaves (backside diffuse) ...
Oh and long-ish hair preference.

ha-ha .. OK yep 2nd model. I think my other follow up set the general
idea, but I'll add that maybe the orb (logo inside) maybe just logo I
want to be just floating above her hands. I'd like to try to get it to
cast some colored light back to her face ... maybe a touch of emission
or something to give it a little glow, or maybe something like you did a
while back with the torch and the Lucy figure.

I think you were just going with your comfort zone using bishop to see
how it looked in the scene ... I think we're past that so poseray with
object centered with y=0 at bottom of character gives me the best
flexibility, if I'm not making you jump through too many hoops ;-)

Ooo! A good idea but then we might be accused of misandry.

OK.

I'll see what I can do.

Since I won't be working in B3D I should be able to do that but it is a
new feature for me.
> Oh and long-ish hair preference.
Now that could be problematic. Poser hair does not translate well into
PovRay. Ne need to find one of the older hair styles that are solid but
doesn't look as if the model is wearing a few pounds of plaster of Paris
on her head. And the hair is generally model specific. But I'll see what
I can do.

Not sure yet. I wait for your model to develop. I think there should not be
too many humans.
By the way, if you are using Jessi, the Kosaburo hair will fit I think.
There is need though to work on the image maps.

Hmmm.... the easiest way is to replace the image_maps for the feathers by a
white/light grey texture. I shall give it a try tomorrow.

Or take the textures that are there and desaturate and lighten them, perhaps.
