Changed it up with black nylons and sneakers. Had to come out of them later though as the temp rose above 90, whew!

Intro (chanted, ritual, slow build)
Raise the banner
Feel the ground
Stone remembers
We are crowned
Verse 1 (marching, heavy)
Carved in steel and winter flame
Names endure, outlast the pain
Every scar a spoken vow
We stand as one, here and now
Runes are burning in the night
Guiding hands that held the line
Not forgotten, not erased
Every fall became our place
Pre-Chorus (building tension)
Hear the drums beneath the stone
Every step we’re not alone
Chorus (anthem, powerful, chant-ready)
THIS IS OUR KINGDOM
BUILT FROM THE PAST
WEAR THE MEMORY
FORGED TO LAST
NO SURRENDER
NO REGRET
THE CROWN IS HEAVY
BUT WE DON’T BEND
Post-Chorus (call & response, playful but strong)
HEY! — Remember!
HEY! — Stand tall!
HEY! — Together!
WE WILL NOT FALL
Verse 2 (faster, more kinetic)
From the fire, from the snow
From the blood of long ago
Voices rise, old and new
What they died for — we continue
Not a throne of gold or lies
But iron will and open eyes
History is not a chain
It’s the strength inside our name
Bridge (breakdown → ritual chant)
Strike the stone
Mark the ground
Speak the names
Hear the sound
(half-time, deep)
Memory is power
Power is the crown
Final Chorus (max energy)
THIS IS OUR KINGDOM
NO TIME ERASED
WE CARRY THE ASH
WE KEEP THE FLAME
NO FORGETTING
NO GOODBYE
WE RULE THE NOW
THEY NEVER DIE
Outro (chant fading, epic)
Carved in us
Eternal sign
Past and future
Intertwined

Imported to Lightroom, then 'edit copy in Photoshop' selected. Colorperfect filter applied in Photoshop then saved. Colour, sharpness and N/R applied in Lightroom.
"It is said that the sorceress of the Dusk Order can be found in every major kingdom known to man, where they bide their time pursuing their myriad agendas."
Work in Progress Notation: One of the most frustrating things, if unavoidable, is detail degradation. It can be very disheartening to spend a lot of time working on small details that dissolve when transferred to SL.
The images on the left are the base texture renders in Zbrush (Which means that it is just the texture in fullbright, no actual light or shadow rendering.) Even here, a lot of detail is lost from the original. The image on the right is in Second Life, where another chunk of details have been smoothed away and lost.
Comes with the territory, but it can be frustrating sometimes! If something important is lost however, that is a very good time to open the texture back up in photoshop for some detailing to bring out those important details.
