Marvelous image, very well done!
Thank you so much for stopping by. You do wonderfully detailed work. You are a fine story teller and you graphing panels give those that don't read an opportunity to follow along.
You did just fine. Been doing a little Daz today myself. I should have a new render up in a few hours.
It just takes practice. You already got the eye.
Thank you for stopping by. It has been years for me since I worked in DAZ. I have literally forgotten almost everything so I appreciate your kind words of encouragement. Your latest 'Fashion Comfortable' was a really cool piece.
Nice first Iray effort! Oh you can definitely have fun with Iray, but you'll need to read up on it. Just remember, turn off the camera's headlamp when you render or you will have a face on spotlight throwing your lighting off.
It has been years for me since I worked in DAZ and my addled brain remembers nothing. Like your tip on the Head Lamps 'Duh...' Thank you for stopping by and i look forward to seeing more of your wonderful works..
It looks so good! I love how well the images work in the Environment tab--and you can stuff any image in there, even hand painted ones. Bigger is better for the ones like this, just for resolution. There is a lot to like in DS, even though the materials tab is a little clunky sometimes.
I will definitely look into the DAZ Environment tab. Thank you for the tip. Advanced warning , now i will pester you to explain it to me in terms a 5 year old can understand. Thank you for dropping by.
La fin n'a jamais été aussi proche de nous
EXCELLENT
Ce dont le monde a besoin, c'est de beaucoup d'amour. Ayez de l'espoir, soyez l'espoir. Merci pour la visite. Vous êtes toujours les bienvenus ici.
You can turn down the headlamp so it functions more like a fill light. I can recommend ShibaShake's tutorials on Iray, which are freely available for how to use emissive lights as fills to compliment HDRI lighting. But this is a fine render nevertheless, as you have engaged in storytelling, and that is the most important thing in art. Stay well my friend.
Thanks for the tips. It felt like the first day of school. The transition to the DAZ interface is not bad. There are however a whole lot of aspects about how you do things that i am constantly having to go the tutorials or forums to read up on. Still it is a solid tool that cannot be overlooked.
Beautiful render
Thanks for stopping by. I checked the garden this morning but no luck. None of the bugsnouveau magical bugs were out. I anxiously wait for one to appear.
she is beautiful and very realistic skin/render
Thank you so much. I am really enjoying your wonderful camera adventures. Keep them coming. They are really helpful, especially during these shut down times.
Amazing !!!!
Thank you so much.Your wonderful art was one of the influences that prompted me to attempt DAZ again.
Nicely done, especially for the first time using Iray.
I had done some work in DAZ years ago. So long in fact that this was a complete do-over for me. I had forgotten almost everything about how to navigate the tool. Thanks for stopping by. it is greatly appreciated.
Superb fantasy character and scene, great work!
Merci d'être passé par un pic. Votre travail avec la caméra est merveilleux D'autant plus qu'ici, aux États-Unis, nous sommes presque fermés. Votre objectif est un excellent moyen de passer le temps car nous, les gens, assumons la responsabilité d'arrêter Covid-19. Notre président et son administration nous ont totalement déçus.
Thanks for dropping by an taking a peak. Your camera work is wonderful Especially since here in the U.S. , we are still nearly shut down. Your camera lens is a great way to pass the time as we the people assume responsibility for stopping Covid-19. Our President and his administration have totally failed us.
She's an impressive warrior, and I like the decor, great work !
Thank you for stopping by. You are always welcome. I was touring your gallery recently and I love the way you work with darkened scenes. They add such suspense to the renders. Bravo !
Crap! That weapon could ruin the receivers way. Great expression and outfit. Never used Daz. Would not have a clue on installing content.
Daz has really come a long way. They have a wonderful total encapsulated environment for the render tool that makes product purchase and installation a snap. You never even have to download a zip. Thanks for the comment and for your encouragement.
That looks great. I really like that hair colour with the woman's skin tone - it looks really amazing.
Thank you so much. I appreciate your feed back. The combo of colors is one of a Triadic combinations of colors. I just learned that because of your comment hair color and skin tone. So thank you for helping me to learn something new.
A fine looking render for starting all over again. It will come back to you I'm sure. Nicely accomplished work.
Thanks for the encouragement. Tonight i can use it. Like nothing happened like I thought it would when i was using the Daz Interface. Hey, tomorrow is a new day.
Hearty congratulations on a job well done! I will be rooting for you as I also turned to Daz after a number of frustrating years working in Poser!
I like working in both. For Poser it is the inventory full of goodies I have collected over the years. Thanks to Xdresser all the Stuff carries forward to l’homme and laFemme. For Daz/Iray it is the Render engines quality output + the amazing characters they Keep coming up with. We’ll pass on any tips as I am going to need them. Don’t be surprised if you see a site mail or two asking newbie questions.
Great scene work ! ! !
Thanks for viewing and commenting. I really have enjoyed your wonderful art and have been a fan for a long time.
Nice work. I like the lighting on this. And the rocks in the foreground really adds to the piece!
You did a great job rendering this warrior!
Hello there. I am glad you stopped by. Your latest series of renders tell a great tale and I am following it and loving it.
This is a fantastic looking warrior, just love it. I do nothing with IRAY, dont' understand nothing at all about it and on the other hand I am still working with DAZ3, an oldie like me
I wish you a nice weekend, please continue to stay vigilant and in good health!
Thank you so much. You are always welcome my dear friend. I so love your amazing work.
This is a beautiful fantasy render. :) The thing that stands out to me is the composition. This is so well put together, and the character just draws us in. Great work! :)
Thank you so much. I was by your site earlier. I left a comment that I mean from the bottom of my heart. Be well in all ways and stay safe.
Thank you so much for stopping by. You are always welcome here. I left some comments on your last renders.
A fantastic character and representation!
Wonderful image! Once you get the hang of DS you will love it.
Thank you for stopping by. I have been following you for a while now and totally enjoy your lovely and elegant art style. I look forward to viewing many more from you. Be well and stay safe.
