...very well done. Love the freckled skin. She definitely has that youthful look.
I've spent a lot of time since the Gen4 days trying to perfect younger characters for my story and I am very impressed with this.
Yours looks a bit more adult, like this maybe. If she hadn't pumped up her lips and god knows what maybe.
Thanks
I really like how with iray you can make anything light up with emissions settings . it does make it easier to light a scene. the first render thought i did the lens flares in 12 layer s of photoshop for the effects.
thats is striking. .. the glow of the back light with the latnern light really makes for a dramtic effect. very nice
ha ha thats awesome.
Thanks, Ivy! :)
The lighting was a bit tricky to get the way I wanted, but I kind of like how this one turned out.
Oh, nice, @Divamakeup!
Thank you, KM! :)
Anyone know of a good tutorial for rendering image series? Like if I have a bunch of scenes and I want to batch them to render overnight without having to load them and render manually.
...not sure that can be done with Iray as it would require an external batch process. Unfortunately since Iray is integrated into the Daz programme, the file being rendered needs to remain open until the process is done. LuxRender might allow for batch rendering (not sure if Reality4 supports that though) as it has a separate UI for setting up the process, and will render without the needing scene and Daz programme open, but then you are pretty much back to CPU rendering unless you have an AMD GPU with OpenCL.
Those are nice. They remind me of Atlanta for some reason.
Just a portrait test using the new Georgia figure from OOT and Raiya, and Coln Jackson's Render Studio Iray, which has become my goto for testing out new figures. Man this model is gorgeous. The detail is spectacular! Had to thin the lips and reduce the breasts, but I am very pleased with this purchase.
....yeah I don't kniow what it is with so many characters having thick pouty lips and big breasts. I often find myself downsizing both.
She looks really nice.
That's really good work. Reminds me of "The Bad Seed".
I remain commited to using the new trading floor suit with less buttoned shirts underneath it.
This image is pretty much a direct reference to something that i'm not too sure anyone will recognize. Its also so in my wheelhouse from so many directions. If I went through my gallery and had to pick only one image to represent things that I am interested in doing, this one makes a pretty good case for itself.
Carefree Hair
...I like that hair.
Knittingmommy said: Well, she's adorably cute! I'm a terrible judge of age, but she looks like a young pre-teen or young teen to me. You did a great job with her.
Thank you Knittingmommy. You could be right about the age being a year or two less than my target. Young teen ~13 yo or so is where I was aiming so maybe I will try again. I like however so I'll keep her.

Hi praise indeed. Thank you. I find one of the big problems is getting a suitable texture. Girls skin texture is usually fine-pored and for obvious reasons we only get skin from women at least twice the age of a younger person. Some work better than others.
Reminds me of David Bowie. :)
I'm going to ask a bone-headed question now: How do I upload something to the user galleries?
Reminds me of K.D. Lang, who I've always found particularly stunning.
Now that you mention it... yes. And I can't un-see it lol. I guess I just had Bowie on the Brain when I got up this morning.
Go to your account dasboard by using the drop down list from that little blue man in the top right hand corner, then select Gallery from the list across the top and make a Galler for your self. You also upload pictures to an existing Gallery from there , once you have one set up.
This one has the Carefree hair as well. I had fun setting up this scene and playing with textures.
Bam! Thanks!
And for the thread, Hloomawl, one of my RPG characters. Part of an ongoing project, because minotaurs only seem to come with furry or metal bikinis and strappy shoulderpads.
That's very nice!
Hi,
I just played around with the props of the Lighting Collection product.
Using the torches as the "only" real light source in the set was not the best idea. To let their light lighting the environment I had to set the tonemapping that way, so the flames of the torches were way too much overlighted. The color and individual structure got lost.
So I deceided to use small cylinders as ghostlights to amplify the brightness of the flames. That way it was possible to see the individual structure of the flames while having enough light to make the environment clearly visible.
Hope you like it.
Playing some more
...Zev0 released a skin merchant resource for use with the Growing Up morphs that are more suitable for younger characters. Don't have it yet as it's a rather expensive and I'm on a tight budget.

For now I've been using the Josie 7 base skin in connection with Beautiful Skins for G3F and a lot of playing around with surface channels. Still need tpo wait for Skin Builder Pro 3 so she can have freckles again (only have overlays for Gen4 that won't work because of the change in skin mapping with G3)..
