Tales from the Mirror Universe-Past Re-Discovered

Description

Another trip into the Mirror Universe. I strongly recommend downloading for a better copy.

In this issue the extreme nature of the Empire rears its raciest and sexist head.


Also items unique to this novel are:

1) It was entirely posed in DAZ Studio [link] (it's free and that's a good thing!)

2) Ported from DAZ Studio to another Render (drawing) engine for added realism.
Reality 2 for DAZ Studio (yes there are other programs that do the same as this one, but I chose the one with years of experience and a designer that listens to what his customer's want and is willing to help at every possible chance. [link]

3) It was rendered with LuxRender [link] (also free!) Each image took between 6 to 18 hours to render! Where a normal render in DAZ Studio with my personal settings will take 20 to 45 minutes, most people without altered settings take 5 to 10 minutes per render.



This graphic novel is the 5th installment of a 13 issue series. Next issue the peak of Empire's depravity will be met and then begin the slow change of realizeing their extreme nature is killing them. (minor spoiler there!)

Item 1:

Is there a reason that humans are only portrayed by Caucasians? There is a major lack of ethnic diversity in your stories. It isn't just your story, it's everybody's Trek fiction.

It is down right creepy. It is as though Khan's side actually won the Eugenics Wars.

I would recommend googling population numbers to get a better idea of what your percentages should look like.

And the "I have aliens." excuse doesn't work, for me anyway.

If you haven't been able to find any good blacks (and for the most part you won't at DAZ3d). I would recommend:

Lots of great black characters.

Item 2:

Is there a reason everybody is the same height? If you insist on limiting yourself to DAZ characters, take advantage of the proportion morphs in the S4 morph set. (Petite, Short, & Lanky are ones I use for DAZ characters).

Of course, the easiest way to do get characters that don't all look alike is to use different characters.
