3D-Daz Daz3d Art - Show Us Your DazSkill

Updated photorealism attempt.

I’ve started using the bump and normal maps in a displacement node in Cycles, rather than plugging them into the bump node. Using Subdiv 2 export gives enough polygons for the maps to have a nice effect on the model without requiring adaptive subdivision, which can increase render times.

I’m pretty happy with this shader, because I think it’s really helping to get rid of the too-smooth mannequin look Daz often suffers from.

EDIT: Added another image.

Hi everyone

Im still quite bit new to daz but I've been practising for a couple of week and this will be my first render I have uploaded, I still need learn to better control lighting in scenes but hope you guys like the render. Any tips or recommendations would be appreciated

I suggest no light directly upfront on the character. That makes it look flat. Try a 45 degree angle from your camera and place the light a bit up top to shine from above or a bit from the side.

Now that I’ve gotten these shaders working how I like them, I’ve entered production for a game. Hoping to have a 0.1 out within the next couple of weeks. View attachment 667043

Looks terrific

I'm also a bit of a noob at Daz, but my suggestion for lighting:
Don't use spotlights, pointlights or distant-lights to light your scene, unless you really know what you're doing.
Use surface lights:
Go to Create -> new primitive and select 'plane'
Select the plane.. go to 'surfaces'... find Emissions and turn that on. This will make the plane give light.
Use the temperature for intensity of the colour of the light (low is more reddish-light... high is more white-light)
and the Lumen and Intenisty is more for how bright it is.
Then just place the Plane with the paremetres tab where you want it and how to angle it

I like these lights the best since they are more sublte to use than Spot/point lights.
Also... don't forget to turn the enviroment-lights off:
Render settings tab.... find the 'Enviroments'
Turn the Eviroment Intensity, Map and Lighting Resolution all the way to 0. All three just to be safe to have only your new lights in the scene and not the overall enviroment lights.

I agree. Though, you can use a mixture of both actually for better results. Spotlights/pointlights are usefull enough. Distant lights.. nah. Don't like them. But you have to know how to use them. play with the properties. You can have subtle results also.

I first started using primitives also. Then i tried to learn how to control the spotlights to my benefit. Took some effort but not more than the primitives. Because with the primitives you also need to experiment a lot. How far will you put the surfuce. What shape you want. The angle. Still there is a lot of experiment to do.

Also, the temperature is a bit difficult to manage if you don't know how it works. Low temp gives off a yellow light. Not reddish exactly. Low temp lights are usually used in living rooms or bedrooms, cause you have to have warmth in your lighting. High temp lights are used in large rooms, like schools, hospitals, kitchens (

One thing everyone can do is actually find a photo (either your photo or on the internet

Hi there,

Here are some of my first Daz images. I had some trouble with this background, the red wall kept giving a lot of artifacts, but for a first try I think they are not bad. I welcome any critique, because I would like to learn

First post here. Spent way too much time fussing with lighting but I think it turned out okay.
