The Ghost Cat of Pennsylvania

Officially declared extinct in 2018 by US fish and wildlife, the eastern cougar once roamed the forests of Pennsylvania and every state east of the Mississippi.  The last officially documented sighting in Pennsylvania occurred in 1874 in Berks County, however residents still report sightings to this day.  With 2 million acres of pristine and protected forests in the PA Wilds, it's easy to believe this elusive cat, also called the ghost cat, could exist without a confirmed sighting. --- I wanted to do something with the lovely Hivewire Cougar that I picked up after the holidays, and decided to try to recreate a PA landscape with assets I had in my runtime.  I used the included morphs for the Hivewire Big Cat to give the lion a longer, broader face reminiscent of Penn State's Nittany Lion Shrine.

Setup and Rendered in DAZ Studio 4.14 Public Build Beta.  Postwork in Photoshop Elements 8.0.

Sweet Dreams in the Spring Grove

In quest for some solitude, Sarovanya sneaks away from the Elven city and into the surrounding forest. He manages to find a quiet place beside a fallen tree where the warm sun breaks through the canopy and he can doze in peace.

Hivewire3D is offering some awesome freebies for 3D artists to use to spread hope in this time of Coronavirus quarantine.  They are challenging 3D artists to Stay Home and Spread Hope with their work, and have even mad a contest out of it.  This is my first render using some of the lovely freebies they’ve provided.  It is also a celebration of my wood elf character, Sarovanya, who has been with me 17 years this spring!  Here’s to many more!  :)
