I aint posted here for a while, Ive had my head in Renpy tutorials for game I'm making, this is one of the breakfast scenes Ive just done. I make my own morphs, skins, and manually adjust the shaders, so its a struggle to get them to look right in outdoor lighting, its for a game so I'm not worried that much about it. amy breaky1.jpg

I believe you may be a bit off the mark with this comment. A HDRI is basically a sphere that surrounds the scene that also acts as a light source. You can change the sharpness / blurriness of the HDRI by playing around with the diameter of the finite sphere (to a limit) or by changing the focal length of the camera (smaller = sharper background).

I took a look at the HDRI series you recommended and from what I can tell it isn't any different from any other HDRI, expect for the supply of a number of buttons to adjust the DAZ camera and environment settings. If you are familiar with these, you are basically paying more for nothing. To demonstrate, I created the following series of renders demonstrating control of HDRI as it relates to depth of field.

Always happy to help. I have also created a number of other guides in the Daz Studio - Tutorials and Tips thread as linked in my signature.

Architectural Iray Shaders provides a wide array of surfaces should you be looking to create building backgrounds.


Yep a absolute normal Physical Camera behavior sold as a Product Feature inside a Preset for those without experience in how to set it up right.

Personally i prefer to create non DOF results more tough and normally use just the normal compression blur ;)

[rant start]
Personaly DOF is a very two sided sword for me styleish yeah but for Porn come on i want to see all the Details all of them every piece of Skin Detail i hate Porn Photographers who use DOF to focus on stuff, i generaly throw those pictures into the trash bin as failures.

2000$ cam 3000$ objective and you create Blur with it inside of a under control Studio environment, master work ;)

Same for all those Igors that have to show their Photoshop Skills to the world making a complete Doll out of a Beauty and smashing a masterful Digital Photographic result into something horrible artificial looking which has no resemblance often to any human at all anymore, also here big applause for all porn post processing specialists.

Place for Both of us (Blue overcast)



Happy new Year everyone :)

This was a colossal headache. 6 characters and I had all sorts of loading issues, memory fail issues, crashes, etc. I can definitely understand why people keep scenes simple for the most part. Ended up having to render in parts and combine in Photoshop. Just wanted to have an image of all the ladies together.

Anyone have any tricks they've run into when rendering with multiple characters on screen at once? I have a 1080 and a 1070, and I know they don't pool vram so I have the 8gigs, but man, feels like after 2-3 characters and you're out of memory and have crashes, slowdowns, etc.

Anyhoo, so which is the lady of your dreams?

What did you use to create the skins for Luna and Keva? They look great!

I really hate viewing this damn thread! LOL. So many fantastic renders, so much good info for improving your own!

I'm looking for a couple of skins for G3F/G8F and hoping someone here can help me.

1. One that has a dark areolas.
2. A skin that has a darker edge to the areola. Like a dark ring around it. Kind of like or , though it's a bit faint.

Barring that, any hints on creating or editing an existing skin. I'm not great with photoshop, but I can follow a tutorial. I've also thought about maybe applying a LIE image. Getting a good natural edge had proven difficult in the past.

Thanks
