Me: I should try to work out dForce.
Also me: But…I should then drown the fabric work in dragons and volcanos.
Obviously.
This one got out of hand, didn’t it? I’m playing about with cropping it for composition. This is the full, uncut image.
The smoke and the volcano are bought stock from Depositphotos. Merlin and his dragon are mine π


So…this outfit was going cheap–and it’s a bit mad–so how could I resist?
Image One: I’m happy with the lighting, though her upper arm and side are a bit wonky looking.
Then I thought…how could I ramp up the madness of the costume? Dragons were out. Hmm… Wings!! Everything is so much better with wings!
And the Demon Queen was born.
Image Two: Unexpectedly, I got a more photorealistic look for this image, which is incongruous for the subject matter (oh, my despairing art lecturers from a million years ago would be pleased with that sentence π ).
I’ve still a long way to go in learning about lighting, obviously…but now there’s dForce stuff going cheap too. And that’s a whole new rabbit hole for me to fall down. Oh dear…

Probably a bit over done…but I couldn’t resist garish with added colour burn smoke π
The sky and smoke are Depositphotos. The glowing, blue alien and temple are mine.

Grumpy Blue here took forever to render. Close-ups always do.
Most of the effects were fixed in Photoshop’s Camera Raw filter. I love that thing. It often changes ‘bleh’ to ‘ooo’ π

Orcs need love too!
I’m mostly happy with the lighting on this one…though I’ll have to revisit her arm as it’s borked. Btw, posing arms and hands is *hard*.Β And I only noticed when I’d finished the Photoshop touches.
Ah well, I know what to look out for next time. Every image is a learning experience π
Bokehs from DesignCuts (I have *a lot* of them!). Rendered figures are mine.

Over the past couple of weeks I–and my Paypal acccount–fell into Daz3D. Wow, is it addictive. I’ve been posting to myΒ Instagram and to Facebook pages for the past week or so…and then I remembered my lonely little blog.
So now my new obsession is here too.
This rendering came about as wild hair and post-apoc clothes were both going cheap in the Daz shop.
So…I like to think that as a way to stay sane in an insane world, my Wasteland Warrior keeps her hair in beautiful condition. And don’t you dare mess with her products!
