Hello again!
Lately I am investing my time on gathering new assets and trying new poses and expressions by myself.
I know I'm repeating myself with this lighting and studio setup, but somehow Coral wants to model like this more. I can't get enough of trying on outfits, heheh.
Maybe next time I'd try a different lighting setup, a darker one, maybe.
Open for criticism as always, hope you like her new outfits ^^
PS - I still don't do any postwork ~frankly I am not experienced enough to do quality postwork even though I can use photoshop, lightroom, etc. I guess it is still early a bit. It feels challenging to get raw renders that look good. I see some users here also don't do any postwork and get legendary results. I hope one day I'll be experienced like them and create much more beautiful renders of Coral.
Just wow. Really liking second one. Green is definitely her colour and the outfit choices in the both images are just right. Considering your previous posts too, I think the time you spend on trying different outfits for her really pays off.
Can't skip mentioning the expressions on both renders. She really poses and gives expressions like a real model. You've said that you are repeating yourself with the studio setup and lighting. Can't say anything about the lighting but the studio setup feels like where she really belongs as a beautiful model.
Just like one of the guys here said, the vignette use is amazing too. Really manages to emphasize her and give depth to the overall image.
Also I really support your decision on skipping the postwork. I'm doing that too. I think the studio has a lot to offer even without postwork applied on the renders. With clever light placement and a couple of tweaks, one can achieve the postworked look they desire or at least come really close to it. I really think chasing that is a great challenge which truly lets you develop a lot more on the long run.
If this is what you can do with a studio environment and basic lighting, I can't wait to see what you will come up with when you decide to do ones with intricate environments. No pressure though, baby steps. You are already doing great. I'm sure you will do ''legendary'' stuff in the future if you insist on calling what you are already doing here ''not-legendary'' hahah.
You've mentioned that you are a newcomer but your use of colour and light is really good. Might I ask if you have any prior experience in visual arts? What you are doing feels like the work of someone who is into photography, painting or both.
Anyway, sorry about the long post. Please don't shy away from showing your beautiful girl more often.
PS: Can't wait what you'll come up with the darker setup you've mentioned either.
TLDR; You good. Renders good. Coral good. Progress good. Me likes. Me wants more.
