Started with a Genesis 8 Female Template.
1st Render of completed model without much light or environment.
In Daz studio, I added a light source, background fog, and a blurred tree line.
Then I added a red rim light.
Post Photoshop, and final render, I added skin shine to simulate sweat.
Tools, assets and techniques used:
Daz3D Studio
Iray
Photoshop
Kayla Genesis 8 Female Template
Aranya Hair
LaPetiteColombe G8F Clothes
Classic Diamond Jewelry
HDRI Environment and Lighting
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 character, add skin texture, etc…
- I either can embed the character into the background or rap the environment around the character, then add lighting.
- Rendering times can take 10 minutes to 2 hours per render.
- Postwork in Photoshop (adding imperfections in the skin, changing atmosphere, creating depth of field, etc…)
Stay frosty people.
