Description
Honestly I don't know about this one, hopefully I'm not too depressed :)
Originally this was a texturing exercise on her skin (SSS and specular effects). This turned out well as such, but then the antialiasing of the hair strands left a lot to be wished for, and then...Sometimes things like this can happen when the image takes over and demands a certain route.
But basically I quite like it, otherwise I wouldn't post it :)
Vue 8.4 Complete render, very little postwork on the render, the tacky framing is Photoshop.
V4 & hair from DAZ.

*** EDIT ***
From suggestions by the viewers, I made the background framing darker...

Decided version 1 was better anyway :)

looks good her skin is slightly pale but overall good work
A lovely portrait - hair in Vue doesn't always work the way you want it too - lovely skin tattooing - great pose and expression
Superior work, great job, it all works well together,
And it's very nice! Bravo
It's a great render and a wonderful portrait!
your being much to hard on you!! It's beautiful excellent and lovely !!
Great portrait!!!
Very thoughtful image,I think the image would have worked better without the light wood background.The figure is well posed.good work.
Beautiful textures and lovely pose/expression.
Gorgeous render!!!!
lovely portrait!
Hey Lars....this is a nice work that I would change the wood texture to something older maybe...a darker weather worn..maybe a bit of ivy. I think this deserves it....it's really a nice work.
wonderful work !
~Very beautifully done!~
most excellent and very beautiful well done my friend
I really like the expression, lighting is pretty good and overall a very nice image!
Beautiful work. Her demeanor seems to be one of amusement. Lovely expression.
Good pose, great color. You might want to consider using Corvas' Simple Details to make V4's shoulders more real. Its quite inexpensive.
Excellent portrait. Gorgeous detail
The texturing and lighting turned out really well. Yeah I think I'm hooked on DS for figure renders. And with the reality plugin and lux renderer... photorealism is that much closer.
Excellent portrait and details
Very nice portrait : I like the expression on the character's face ! :)
Great portrait, her expression is wonderful!
This is beautiful. Wonderful portrait!
Wonderful and realistic!
Beautiful!
I don't see anything wrong with this one at all! She seems to be deeply contemplating something amusing. Outstanding work!
Awesome render. Im new to vue so I didn't think vue could do this sort of work. This is really awesome!. Cheers Scott.
Fantastic portrait - I'm glad you posted it.
