Tarsa from the back. I depicted her in a raw form...where she is spontaneously combusting into flames...with fire tracks along her body.

Using Daz3d Studio and Photoshop

Started with a Genesis 9 Female Template.

Added the semi-completed model, after I morphed the body and changed her position.

Added hair.

Added texture, light and color

Added fire tracks along her body.

Added additional fire with point light to give it illumination.

Added a desert background with sun, then rendered.

Tools and assets used:

Daz3D Studio, Iray and Photoshop
Genesis 9 Female Template
Hotba Hair
Female Aura Shell
KAFF Small Bare Fire with point lights
Daz3d and HDRI Lighting Background
Desert Environment

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 was about 10 hours.
• Postwork in Photoshop (adding imperfections in the skin, changing atmosphere and lighting, etc…)

Stay frosty people.
