HELP!!! Rendering with Canvases

idolbaby19

Hello,

 

Just came back from rendering with DAZ 3D. I've recently been using and figuring out how the canvases work (so far, I only know Beaty and nodes). I wanted to make a paper doll-like 2D assets by rendering first a base character without any hair nor clothes. However, whenever I tried rendering the clothes and the hair on the character, the result is that, the clothes and hair is fine, but the shadow that they should be casting on the base character's skin is not showing at all...

What can I do about this problem? I want the hair and the clothes to include the shadow that they would cast on the base character's skin so that whenever I try putting the clothes/hair on, the shadow is also seen on the base character's skin. TIA!

Try rendering a Shadow canvas for the clothes (and figure?) and then layer it, in multiply mode, below the clothes/hair.
