Description

"I never was comfortable standing in the limelight. But it would have been rude to just brush them off."


---

I am not completely satisfied with this piece. I tried combining several different techniques to compile a much busier scene than I usually do. But! I will go cross-eyed if I try to fiddle with it any more. Here we have Spencer aka Silverknight, being a bit shy in the face of praise for defeated a terrible beastie that is now being inspected by scientists. For science. Because reasons.

Well done! A scene this complex in Daz is *seriously* difficult!

Yeah, this one took a while. But it taught me a lot. I've been working with techniques I learned from doing this ever since.

You've done extremely well considering how busy the scene is. I'm lucky to manage to get three figures into any scene, and getting actual scenery and props into it at the same time is a bonus! I count at least 11 figures in yours, and each of them has tangible shadows that correspond with the light and with each other. I've not managed that. This is way above my own skill set!

Aww! Well, I wouldn't say it's above your skills. It's merely a different use of the same program. Thank you so much!

It looks to me liek I can squeeze four figures into a single scene before my PC cries out for mercy, and that's as long as they're all wearing pretty much the same outfit. I did do one image a while ago with a lot of characters but my skills with photoshop are not that good for compositing multiple figures into a single image. That's why I'm so impressed by yours - you've done a great jon.

Silverknight shines out like a diamond on goat's ass. I like his look...heroic but his face leads me to think he's a little reserved. It would be difficult to have so much detail, Baylien, and situations not get frustrating to a degree. There's a lot to absorb here. Don't beat yourself up too much. You put so much creativity in your scenes and I think it really shows, even here.

Thank you! I learned a few things, as I do with most projects. I try to keep things detailed because I like details. So I'm glad you enjoy then! As for my super dork here, he was described as a golden retriever by a friend. He's a good bean. He tries his best and gets shy and nervous with a bunch of attention. Lol

My kind of hero: larger than life, but still human.

Ohh nice work! How did you make this scene? It is so nice!

Baylien In reply to Hijaden [2019-07-02 02:18:10 +0000 UTC]

I had to make it in stages. The background was rendered as stand alone. I then incorporated billboards, some of the people are billboards. Part of the crowd was rendered individually on a clear background. Finally the hero, Silverknight, was rendered on his own. I then put everything together in Photoshop.

Ah, thanks for the explanation! Did you use the Canvas option in DAZ to do the while in making those renders?

Baylien In reply to Hijaden [2019-07-02 18:57:55 +0000 UTC]

I don't fully grasp the canvas rendering. I've tried it before and it doesn't turn out well for me. I may need to revisit it.

Same here, it is an interesting feature, but I does lack instructions on how to use it. It's sad since It should be a great help rendering out more complex scenes.

Haha, yes. This took me about a week to complete. Working on it slowly.
