I really like this one!
Camera angle, colors, character, atmosphere...
You can tell a whole story using just this scene.

No offense mate but if I may ask, there is a story why you're consistently using this poser, right? Please don't take this the wrong way but is the face model your mother's, aunt's or your wife?
I reckon there has to be deeper meaning.

...not bad at all, man! Nice posing, nice ambient. The lighting is an HDRI with a sunset, or is it the default skydome in DAZ?

...he's trying to make that character looking like his wife, if i didn't get it wrong... that's probably explaining his will for it to be perfect...

@Vanaduke : I don't take offense
because you are right, this model is based on a real person, my wife for instance with all the imperfection that are bound to reality (she is 37 years old). The base figure is a plain G3F morphed using morph dials (there are more or less 230 different morph dials used ). The skin is custom based on photography and enhanced with

...I use her as some kind of muse to perfect my knowledge of DAZ... Using a real person as model help to avoid walking in the uncanny valley. I would like to be as realistic as possible (with added fantay for sure
)...
Hello everyone
i'm brand new here . and hardly trying to create good renders for VN (an other one). here's one of the main character . any (constructive) opinions would be appreciate or i'm on the good way ? the image is rendered at 4k using iray. glad if it would be used as a wallpaper :angel: . for the background it's the generic daz studio , hdri used is Skies of iRadiance Sunset HDRIs for Iray
i also don't have a perfect english so i do apologize if i write wrong sometimes.
thanks in advance

The render is quite good (maybe a little too colorfull for my taste but that is personal), the only thinks I may note is the black color of her left glove seems too washed (I suppose it is caused by the postwork process) and the odd posing angle of the tail (and near the tail there is something that I cannot identify). I drawed in red the zone that "disturb" me.
Sorry for the poor Engish but I am not a native of that language (I am a French speaker
)... But anyway you are definitively on the right way....You don't have permission to view the spoiler content.

@mcmaniarender redone , i removed the glossiness of the gloves and replace the tails + made it less colorful ( as you're french i owe you this at least) after the final render is photoshop and i still try to play with the filters and other noise reduction to make it (i hope) even better.
thanks a lot for your advices

I am currently working on some characters for future renders (spoiler below) and was wondering what some of you are using for applying tattoos to models. I've done it previously by editing the texture map, however was seeking a simpler solution using an overlay. Any recommendations that would suit G8F models would be appreciated.
Edit: Thanks mcmania - think I have worked out how to make it work using LIE. Might take me a while to create properly as I am planning an arm sleeve which will take some manipulation in GIMP. Updated the image with some random poses with some additional model tweaks.

Hi @Xavster,
Personally I use the Layered Image Editor (L.I.E.) integrated to Daz to apply custom tattoos (like the tribal dragon tattoo on my model) otherwise there are commercial pack using this overlays system on DAZ (I.E.

).For custom tattoos I applyed this kind of workflow:
- (black tribal tattoos) : I look for a tribal tattoo clipart on google image then I use Vector Magic Desktop Edition to convert it in vector to enhance its definition and export the result as a XVG file (this format is supported by gimp).
- I use GIMP to manipulate the tattoo furthermore (like adding an alpha channel).
- on DAZ, I add the created bitmap as a layer on the base and transluancy maps using the layered image editor.
- you can even save the result to reuse it on any other iray model using "File>Save as..>Layered Image(s) Preset" option
I hope it help...
