Helena, resting her might saber on her shoulders, ghabanas flying in the background, staring into the hot dusty desert of her home planet of Bysintine 5.
I wanted to give this a "movie poster" vibe.
Started with a Genesis 8 Female Template.
Added a rocky cave environment.
Added the completed model, after I morphed the body, gave her a scar, makeup, changed her position, facial expression, and added clothes.
Added hair and additional clothes.
Added a saber and head amulet.
Added an alien desert planet background...then rendered it.
Tools and assets used:
Daz3D Studio, Iray
Genesis 8 Female Template
Arwen Hair
B25ST Clothes, Albion Saber
Temple Cave Environment
HDRI Alien Planet Background
In Summary:
- I start out with a model template and morph the body physically.
- I put the body into a position, change facial expressions, add makeup, dress the model, add skin texture, props, etc…
- I either can embed the character into the background or wrap the environment around the character, then add lighting and camera settings, like depth of field.
- Rendering times can take 10 minutes to 2 hours per render.
Stay frosty people.
