I need to wake up for work in about 4h so I didn't have the time to let the render finish. But an early WIP render fits with the early WIP character.

That's a first draft, lots will change over time, but after Siobhan and her monochromatic preferences, meet Celia. One that will probably show a preference for neon, punchy colours and clean, elegant compositions.

Any suggestions are always welcomed, but the base will stay as-is. At least until I finish playing with the sliders and have a more complete view of the character.

PS. This by no means is an indicator I'm done with Siobhan or her monochrome style. But I wanted a new character to play with and try new things.

Lighting and color are a bitch in this scene and I SO wish I had a graphics card with more than 6 GB RAM. To stay true to the original mood and tone setting of the HAB 017 set I didn't put in extra lights or remove walls and ceiling, and that creates a funky bunch of challenges, lol o_O:D Here's the first result that didn't give me a completely unhealthy pulse.

Two more portraits. Still working on details, but getting close. Criticism welcome.
Girl is cute. The man looks like someone who's asking to get his ass kicked. Don't know why, just the feeling I get. :ROFLMAO:

But in all seriousness I like them and since you're going for portrait may I suggest you either rotate the heads or the light? I think you're going for a butterfly effect but it looks relatively flat. It'd be much more interesting to let the shadows show the forms.

Personally I'd pose the heads instead of changing the lights. That way you avoid the dead look of the eyes. If you prefer to change the lights though, I'd have the eyes point at an empty either at the top right or bottom right of the portraits, depending on the feeling you want to give to the characters.

I'd give more details but I'm on the phone at a break from work so I really can't. If you want me to, I'll be able to do so in a handful of hours from now.

This is my first ever render using Daz 3D, and I was absolutely blown away by how much easier it was than I thought!

I remember going through some Blender tutorials many years ago and giving up after realising how much I'll need to learn before I can create a decent 3D model of a human being.

Criticisms and recommendations on how I should improve are very welcome!
