    Very nice. I love the iphone...

    And I notice her, ah... talents... aren't quite so robust as some of your other images. (snicker)

    As I don't have any Gen2 or 3 products this is Genesis rendered in Daz Studio/Iray with using 3 Spot lights and 1 distant light for the back lighting. For my first portrait I don't think it came out that bad.

  • RogerbeeRogerbee Posts: 4,460

    Yeah, that's really nice. I haven't done much with lights other than HDR's.

    CHEERS!

  • Oso3DOso3D Posts: 15,100

    Szark: Very nice overall, and I particularly like the hair.

    As for lights, it's one of those things a lot of us sort of breeze past, but it can make such a difference. Heh. But yeah, I usually just use one of Mec4D's portrait HDRs.

    Where do you get them from? I wasn't using Iray when her birthday thread was active so I missed all the freebies she had.

    CHEERS!

  • SzarkSzark Posts: 10,634

    Rogerbee and timmins.william thanks

    I tried a studio HDRI first but it washed out the detail so I went with a 3 point light rig instead

    That is an understatement in my estimation. Very nice render. May I ask what you used for shaders on Genesis and the hair. Both are excellent. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks Jack

    I just used Iray Uber Shader Metalicity/Roughness on everything. I will take some screen shots of the settings later. I did use DT's Interjection SSS strength maps in the Translucency Weight channel. The Skin texture set came with SSS colour maps so they went into the SSS colour channel

    Szark, I think she turned out GREAT! The hair is fabulous, too.

  • SzarkSzark Posts: 10,634

    thanks barbult

    Very nicely done,

    I don't think I'll be upping anything till I have a GPU taking the strain.

    CHEERS!

    Thank you.

    I envy you your upcoming purchase. I'm not sure I can put an Nvidia card in my HP. And the cost of one is definitely not in the budget. Especially if I keep buying DAZ products! lol

    And you buy a card then want  need to buy more Daz products to test it /nod

    Yes, that will doubtless happen. I expect G3M/M7 will be out before I get a new card.

    CHEERS!

     

    I've been putting it off; there is the risk that faster renders will mean buy more product to test; the alternative is that i'll be waiting less time for renders so spend less time looking for stuff to buy. :)

    Indeed it is; I like the slight gap on the teeth too, adds some believability to the scene.

    Thanks. This is why Sharing helps us all learn. If I make money on something I won't share though. :)

    you're right, but this can be fixed easily:

    Interesting, I wouldn't have thought to use that Top Coat Thin Film, I based what I did on Mec4D's settings.

    CHEERS!

  • RogerbeeRogerbee Posts: 4,460

    Ok, I tried Top Coat Thin Film on Darius with the same setting and only noticed a very slight difference in the skin tone. Here he is anyway..

    CHEERS!

    It depends on the lighting. HDRI's won't show the difference. Use some spots and change the thickness to 400 NM and see the difference. In fact sebum has a wave length of 400 to 600 NM which I tried but the colour was too intense. I need to play with Top Coat and Gloss strengths to get a fine balance without the Top Coat giving a vivid colour.

     

    Also I noticed the HDRI's I have give less highlights than spots do.
