Description
Since nudie pinups seem to be less distasteful than they once might have been I dragged out another pinup from the texture experiment days. While arguably a little racy, I find pinups useful to test newly purchased or created characters and HDRIs before investing time into more complicated asset and texture bashes. In that way they are much like my aviation pieces...
In this one a Nordic beauty from days past is distracted by something or another on the shore of a wooded lake. She's a tweaked mix from an Adam Thwaites model and uses his textures which are superb and can offer wonderful variations to custom characters.
This is as naughty as I will dare on Rendo. Might do more unclad ladies, but for now it's back to more story based scenes...

such a stunning outdoor pinup of her/ wow!!
jdwtrxk
Thanks eekdog - as always with me it's all up to choices rather than talent :)
makennedy
Very Nice!
jdwtrxk
Thanks makennedy - she was fun to spin up.
mifdesign

jdwtrxk
Thanks mif - was fun.

Female nudes have always been the norm here as long as I have been visiting this site! You present this Nordic beauty in a most favorable light! Very well done my friend! Bravo!
jdwtrxk
Thanks radar - wasn't sure about this one, but it's sorta interesting to have two scenes up at once - Beauty and the Beast. Beauty seems the favored.
PhthaloBlue
Beautiful pinup - great skin textures,pose, and lighting!
jdwtrxk
Thanks Blue - Thwaites has tremendous textures that can be easily switched to a custom character or another asset with good to great results. I have a collection of his characters for that purpose and use them more often than not on my own customs.
katyee
I really like this for the genuine touch... The shadows and lighting are amazing... Her hands are so realistic... okay lol... tell me all your lighting techniques..
jdwtrxk
Thanks katyee. Her hands have added vascularity from an asset in DAZ. Lighting was a simple set from Adam Thwaites that came with the base character and eliminates the headlamp. The rest was positioning the HDRI and little tweaking in exposure. For outdoor scenes a good HDRI is tough to beat.

Nice render! She has a beautiful face. Love all the details such as the vascularity morphs (I use them as well from time to time, but waaaay too less) and the body hairs on ther arms, which became pretty much a standard in my renders same as some peach fuzz, which often is barely visible, but can add a tremendous amount of realism. I suppose you used exnems bodyhairs product here.
Well done!
jdwtrxk
Thanks Furnose - she is a cutie. I did very little to her shape, drooping these a little here, moving this a little there, and then blending in a little from a few other figures. I don't think I had Shape Creator back then. I highly recommend SC for making original characters or just playing mix and match for grins and hoping for an interesting surprise.
Hair is Banded braids - a pretty good asset despite its age. The lay of the front braids suggest the hair fits poorly; it's a pretty clean auto fit on most any character without adjustments.
Textures are Adam's from 'the box'. Few are as good, and none are better, at least in my limited experience.
Body hair is Exnem's except for the nether regions, which are Tempesta's. Bot were softened a little using Opacity. LightBlue has newer sets on the naughty site for both that are quite good but a little more work to fit. As I do a lot of 'period' pieces and 'historicals', I sorta need this stuff for some scenes, as well as vascularity given that few outside the ruling classes were except from lift and pull. Hands, feet, and lower arms are a must to some degree regardless, except most children. Males more than females, of course..
Peach fuzz is pretty good too for close up portraits. I seldom use it, but probably will if I do more portraits. Always more fun with completely custom characters, especially if they are from your own prose, graphic, or gaming work.
Can't say enough for good HDRIs. Renderhub has some pretty good free ones, and in here, Shaaramuse's are well worth the money. I believe this scene used one of Shaara's.

This is absolutely gorgeous work!
jdwtrxk
Thanks starship - most of the credit goes to the asset creators.
pchef
indeed, she is a beauty. Nice render
jdwtrxk
Thanks pchef - she is a sweetie.
Stormrider75
Hi, i´m a big fan of photorealism... Very well done! Bodyhair, pubic and the skin, awesome details :) Top lighting, everything fits here...
Greetings Stormrider75
jdwtrxk
Thanks Stormrider - this gal was intended for a more involved period piece if her test run worked and ended up in the test run only. Hence the hair...:)
MollyFootman
I can't really add to the criticism above except to say I agree that is is a very well done nude. The human body has always been food for artists and this is the kind of female body that most will agree is beautiful and you've rendered it well here. Small imperfections of the skin and the vascularity of the hands and forearms are the kinds of detail that helps makes a digital representation seem real and are very well executed. Thank you for sharing, my dear!
Molly
jdwtrxk
Thanks Molly - plopped this one in when the post-app scene drove me nuts. Ended up changing the setting on the latter and it rendered without grain in less than 2 minutes.
Rendo booted it because there was a figure in a noose I bought on Rendo....
TwiztidKidd
What a charming and lovely character! A lovely expression and beautiful eyes too.
Are you on DeviantArt also? I'm ready to watch more of her there LOL!
jdwtrxk
Thanks Twiztid though Deviant is a great site. You have me thinking on it :)
Richardphotos
she certainly is a beauty and a wonderful pose/lighting
jdwtrxk
Thanks Richard - had good stuff to work with.
Inawati
Beautiful character and render.
jdwtrxk
Thanks Inawati - she was fun to set up.
BellaDark
I really love the natural light here. Beautiful skin on the figure too. :)
jdwtrxk
Thanks Bella - just needed a simple rotation of character and a great HDRI and removing the4 headlamp.
mickale
wow, she's stunning! very well done.
jdwtrxk
Thanks mickale - she was a pleasure to work up.
VDH
Superb pin-up, nice sensual pose !!
jdwtrxk
Thanks VDH it all sorta fell into place,
gaius Online Now!
Even if she looks shy and sweet, she's very sexy !
jdwtrxk
Thanks gaius - she has us all fooled :)
virginiese
The light is just perfect ! Very realistic render ! Congrats !
jdwtrxk
Thanks virginiese - the HDRI gets the credit. All i did was rotate and adjust the sunlight...
JohnnyM
Your beautiful Nordic beauty should be glad she has you as her talented artist, for you have done such an excellent job in highlighting her beauty with your expert use of lighting and just the right amount of shadows in all the right places my friend! Excellent work and so well done! :-)
jdwtrxk
Thanks Johnny but I'd be less than honest to claim to be anything more than a determined "asset utilizer". Sorta like an applicator as opposed to a painter :)
paul_gormley
super quality skin textures and hair, the realism the forearm hair and pubic hair give is quite amazing, and as Katyee said, the hand is sooo real
jdwtrxk
Thanks paul - lots of good texture and hair bits out there and many of the later can be quite convincing with a little blending, softening etc. The character's OOB textures alone were superb.
UteBigSmile
This is a totally beautiful graphic, posted cleanly (even without clothes), there is nothing to complain about!
jdwtrxk
Thanks Ute - I had a good character to work with :)
