In Summary:
- I start out with a character template and morph the body physically.
- I put the body into a particular position, change facial expressions, add makeup, etc…
- I dress the character. Most are 3rd party clothes that I morph and mix.
- I either can embed the character into the background or create the character first and embed the background. Most are 3rd party, some backgrounds I create myself or merge different types of backgrounds together.
- Some backgrounds come with lighting, some don't and I have to create them.
- Rendering times can take 10 minutes to 2 hours per render.
- Also, I can change the render specifications, to give the atmosphere different characteristics, like haze or humidity.
- Postwork in Photoshop
Stay frosty people.
