Description
Just doing a bit of playing with lighting tonight....
A little while back, Tara (auntietk) posted a wonderful photo of a window HERE. I commented about what a wonderful background it would make, and a few days later, it was waiting for me in my inbox!
After a couple of really intense weeks at work, and a few network problems, I've finally had time to play with this wonderful photo a bit! Thanks for letting my play with this, Tara!
The Character is 'Honey' by Vex. I set up the lighting on Honey while looking at Tara's photo on my other computer. It's a fairly simple setup - only 4 lights. I was trying to simulate how she would look if she was actually there. Custom mat for her tank top by me.
We're going to be heading for the Arkansas Ozarks next week on vacation! I'll be taking the laptop, so I'll be able to keep up with everyone, and post a few photos of our trip - so in a sense I'll get to take all my Rendo friends along ;-)
I'll also be doing a bit of work on Chapter 2 of the TNA Girls.
Thanks so much for all the wonderful comments, ratings and faves! You guys ROCK!

Something quite different and a great experiment in technique. The way the mottled light plays on her jeans is exceptional well done. And her shoulders hang naturally.

My Wife would kill me if I took a computer with us on vacation - lol ... I acturally have spent way too much time on the computer this last month, my eyes even hurt - lol ... cool picture, I too have always liked those blocks of glass in windows - don't know why, but ever since I was a kid I loved them - lol

Beautiful work!

I think it matches pretty well actually. I might have made her side nearest the window a touch brighter and the other side a touch darker but that's just me :)

Wowww!!! This is awesome! I'm going to send it to my friend whose window this is. He'll be totally impressed, as am I! He's an AC/DC fan, and likes to look at pretty girls. He'll never see that corner in his house the same way again! LOL! I just now saw this ... sorry to be so slow! Fantastic work ... the light on her jeans is amazing ... heck ... the whole light setup is perfect! You can use my work any time, my friend. Just say the word! :)

Perfecto Rod. The lighting picks up the light coming through the glass blocks and I am sure you don't often get to work with glass blocks these days. So good....

Nice image. You were right, the window does make a great background. Also, great job with implementing the figure to the photograph, the lighting fits just perfectly.
