Description
Continuing to work through this wonderful texture pack from renapd, this is the fourth of six textures in the pack.
This time I rendered in DS 4.6 using the HDR Pro Pack from Dimension Theory (DAZ) for both the backdrop and the lighting. Really high quality stuff, IMHO.
The total render time was 3 min 54 seconds and I think the lighting and realism is pretty damn good. I am going to try the same scene setup rendered in Reality to see the difference, but that will have to wait...

Marvelous character ! WOnderfully done .
Thank you very much
Great integration with the background...the reflection in the sword blade works very well!
Thank you, but the background is part of the render, so no integration involved. Check out the HDR Pro sets from Dimension Theory, they provide the lighting and the dome with the background image.. very cool product.
Well done.
Thank you very much
I'm with grafikeer on this one. Love the overall presentation!!!!!
Thank you very much Dave.
Splendid and brilliant done my friend!!!Bravissimo!V:DDD.Hugsxx Whylma
Thank you very much Whylma
Nicely lit to integrate with the background! Excellent character study.
Thank you, but see my comment on grafkeer's comment about the lighting and background integration, I cannot take the credit for that part..
The total render time was 3 min 54 seconds...certainly, but with what kind of machine-software(s) ? :-p Nevertheless it's a stunning render with reflections at their top !
Thanks for the positive feedback! To answer your question: i5 Intel processor @ 3.1 GHz (4 core) 16 GB RAM Daz Studio 4.6 3Delight Render engine.
Fine, great metal Shader.
Thanks Julien, the metal shader is very good, that is the Real Metals for DS by DzFire. Works really well as long as you have a good environment to provide the reflection.
