Description
After a long day, the girls decide to take a nap on the couch.
I was having some trouble getting Lola's hair to not clip through her hand, so I ended up rendering it twice - once without the hair and then using the eraser tool. I think it turned out well.
One single spotlight, a sofa that came with the "Modern Barn Conversion" set and clothes. Lola's wearing the awesome bra from Innocent Underwear by chasfh. Poor girl. She never wears anything just to be "sexy." And the one time she puts one something sexy, Misty falls asleep!
Their story is, ultimately, tragic. Misty had been hiding just how bad her cancer is, and even though she's warm an affectionate, she doesn't commit to a romantic relationship with Lola until it's almost too late. She believes that it would be "better for Lola" that way. That somehow it would make her eventual loss hurt less. Which drives their friend Lenny nuts.
I think one of the things that I've been exploring really well with the book is the idea that we should express our feelings to those we care about. Whether a friend, a lover, a coworker, a teacher. It doesn't matter. Life is WAAAY too short to not express our loves.
Not the most impressive render, but it's the best I could come up with on my poor tired brain! I hope you will enjoy it , all the same.

excellent
Thank you!
very well.
Thanks!
Excellent result ! Some time ago the 3D software doesn't let us do what we would like to do. You found the solution, it's a great idea
Thank you. Been so busy lately, so spending too much time on a render feels... well, not as relaxed! Today I'm working on getting my book ready to launch on the 31st and avoiding Daz Studio. Of course, I gotta reply to all these comments before I get started! Part of my daily routine now.
A siesta with your 2nd self? Your new image is wonderfully done! 😘
Thank you. I think my next one will be featuring Lenny again. Been working on the book, so they're both heavy on my mind.
Wonderful image my friend :)
Aww. Thank you!
great results on your effort on this render.
Thanks, eekdog!
nice scene
Thanks! Hope your Saturday is productive and happy!
Simply beautiful! Excellent work!
Yeah, they're a lovely couple.
Beautiful. Love the subtle, soft lighting, really sets the mood...
Pretty much was Lola was going for, only Misty fell asleep. Aww.
Thanks for the feedback!
Well done.
It was a pain in the butt to take care of the reflections on Lola's glasses, though. I managed it eventually!
A very tender and moving piece of art, sir. The soft, warm, low intensity light really enhances the warm feeling of calm and closeness here. Well done, my friend!
And you are right - life is too short and as we've seen, too uncertain, to keep that love to one's self.
Thanks! For sure. Better to say something lest you face a growing mountain of regrets.
Excellent work! You are right about the fact that, life is too short! I believe one should not worry about petty things and instead concentrate on living life to the fullest! Only then will you start to experience your life to its full potential! Very well done! I like it! :-)
Thank you! I'm glad you like it. It's something I try to live my life by these days. Getting to that point where when you lose touch with someone, it tends to turn into a permanent situation.
A most interesting and sad story for these two beautiful characters! Marvelous work! Bravo.
Thank you. It's certainly a subject I've not tackled too much before.
I just finished editing the first book of the series, too! Like, about ten minutes ago.
You are so correct my friend. When we only can keep the past in our heart and our future is unknown...communicating and feeling in the moment is of the essence. A very fine render. BTW, your post trick, I know well. It can save a lot of grief from bad behavior in rendering. Well done.
Thanks! If it didn't take much render time, it ends up being a pretty decent trick. If the render took 20 hours... I just groan.
Beautiful sentiment and render. Good message to spread as well!
Thanks, Panda. Definitely something I believe in.
Nicely done!
Thank you. I really do like how it turned out. Some of my favorite characters.
wonderful
Thanks!
very nice!
Thank you!
