Description
This was done in Poser4 with some minor post in Photoshop5. I used Blackhearted's Angelyna, Daz3D Adventurers clothing, Vairesh Andromeda hair from Daz3d, and a sword that a friend gave me (not sure of where it is from, but I will give credit if you contact me). The background picture is from Slim Productions Studio. Shademaster's free plugin for a place to start with the lighting was an incredible time saver. Additional lighting was done in Photoshop. I can't decide if I like "real-looking" or "3D", so this was an experiment.

You did a great job matching the lighting of the Poser figure to the background. ^_^ But is the golden/yellowish tint on her face from the lighting, too? It doesn't seem like her face should look that tinted...
I agree. That was one of the things I had trouble with. The face texture I started with seemed to be always darker than I wanted. Eventually, I gave up to start another project and I'm learning how to make my own textures. I think I might buy Poser5 because of the features on this I have read about.
It actually looks like she is standing there, well done on the post effects too, very subtle and not excagerated.
