V3 says a fond farewell to Apollo as he heads out for a day of scouting. The key to getting this looking the way I wanted it to was to find the right lighting so the background image and the foreground figures blended well. I selected Mystic Forest MF022 from a freebie pack at RDNA. Then I added a shadow map to one of the lights, and used a tutorial at DAZ for adding dappled shadow to a scene. It was only mildly successful (need to try again with that) and I ended up doing some post work in Photoshop Elements to add more leafy shadows. The only other post work was the use of some PS brushes to add grass around the base of the tree on the right, which is a DAZ fairy forest tree. I hope you like it and, as always, thanks in advance for your comments :) *** Credits Anton's Apollo Maximus with clothing Mylochia's Pullback hair for M3 fit with just a bit of tweaking.
