Description
Hello everyone and thanks for looking...
I was looking through the many files I have buried away in my runtime, and I found a hair texture freebie by Bucketload3D for Quarker's Saffire Fox hair, which is one of my favorite old hair props. So I paired it with Rebelmommy's excellent character, and used Colm's Indirect Lighting Studio, and voila! Unfortunately, since most hair (and eyelashes too) use transparency maps, and since those maps usually take a while to render the shadows through them, this seemed to take forever! Probably about 12 to 14 hours. I just started it rendering and chucked the laptop in a corner somewhere to churn. By contrast, if you uncheck the 'visible in raytracing' button on the properties tab, this same picture rendered in about 15 minutes.
What do you think? I really love hearing your comments.

This is really beautiful, Tom. I also have that hair but never used it for a while, those textures you got are nice, very realistic. Gorgeous portrait!

I love Quarker's Sapphire Fox Hair - this is a beautiful render!
The SF hair is one of the first things I bought and I still use it quite often for it's realism. It may be a dated hairstyle but it renders gorgeously. I've got the Bl3D textures for it as well and they're outstanding, nicely blended highlights, etc. It was well worth waiting for, Tom, she's a beauty. I like her demure stance and large expressive eyes. Very nice.
wonderful portrait!
Very nice work, Tom she is sweet looking

Stunning girl and beautiful hair, well done Tom.. Gorgeous work!!
Lovely render!
Beautiful portrait although 12 hours seems excessive. I guess that is to do with Colm's Indirect Lighting Studio. I cant see it taking that with standard Daz say.
I like her mystery eyes.
A spectacular expression and title my friend, perfect render, well done!
Very pretty! I almost never use raytracing for that very reason;)
