I am the author Lyle Aryn. Writing is my first love, my one true passion. Every since I was able to string a sentence together, it's all I've wanted to do. Websites where you can find my work and more are below.
I started using Daz Studio October 23rd of 2018, just as something to dink around with. I'd been signed up with the sight for a while, and would occasionally remember to check for freebies. I was surprised at what I had when I finally loaded up the program. I just started playing around with it, figuring it out. I'd say about 92% of what I've learned in the program I've learned just by playing around with it.
In December I went from being a dutiful son looking after his mom, to the full-time, no nights or weekends off, caretaker of my Mom. As someone who struggles with depression, anxiety and a mood disorder or two, this change has had a drastic impact on my own personal care and well-being. I turned to my blossoming love of doing digital art as a way to cope with the mountains of stress on my shoulders. I do miniature painting, too. But when you haven't slept in 4 days, handling a brush can be very messy. Not being able to paint to my own personal satisfaction was making this avenue of relaxation increasingly frustrating.
Daz Studio has an undo button that you just don't get with painting miniatures.
As my skill with the program grows, so does my confidence. I did the cover to my fifth novel, "Because the Night" using Daz Studio, as well as new covers for two previous releases. (Though they haven't been updated just yet.)
I'm looking to always improve my artistic work, no matter what the medium, and Daz Studio is no different.

Think it says a lot that you are concerned about leaving comments about other artists' work and replying to those on yours....very, commendable.
LyleAryn
Thank you. It can be a lot of work some days, but I know, as I've experienced, that sometimes one little comment can make a world of difference. I just don't want to get apathetic.

I really like this style! It looks wonderful.
I know what you mean... I have several things going at once at the moment (normal for me...), so I get behind a lot as well. Playing "catch up" right now! LOL
This is an amazing community of incredible talent.. The major studios would be well served to visit here on occasion, methinks..
LyleAryn
I agree! Thanks for the comment. I think right now I'm going to take a break from render-wrassling and go watch a movie.

Different. Kind of like a doodle in a side margin for something bigger...
LyleAryn
Thanks! I was thinking of the T-Rex panels from the old Calvin and Hobbes comics when I was playing with it.
