Description
No difference in shape between this and the last portrait of Deshret al-Fazil. It started as a lighting test with HDRI and his skin and eye color, then turned into a hair test fitting the G2F Ranger Hair to a Genesis 3 Male (I really need to get more hair models for the male figues).I'm not sure why the HDRI reflects such a reddish tint from Deshret's sclera, but it helps, I suppose, with how he has wolf-like amber eyes. And the Conan resemblance wasn't intentional - the Ranger Hair adds that effect - but I decided to roll with it. Antonio Banderas in Desperado was an early visual inspiration for Deshret and Jason Momoa in Conan the Barbarian a more recent one, so yeah, it works - somewhere between those two.
Update: Some minor lighting adjustments were made in PhotoShop.

Thank you. Deshret's one of my favorite original characters, but I just don't do enough with him.

You're welcome! You should use him more...

If I could just get the full scene to work. He's supposed to be standing guard over the girl from Something of Value .

Why? Technical limits holding you back?

Yes. Mostly. I want to use the set from Interrupted and include the other girl, Zarana. I could probably do one with just Zarana in the background, then another with Deshret and Michelle(?) - still not sure on her name - and merge them, but two Genesis 3's and a setting is really hard on my computer. Makes me wish I could still draw like I used to. I'd just sketch the scene and be done with it.

You really should get all of those characters sorted. I'm getting lost...

Sorry about that.
I've been trying to flesh out and organize all the stories and timelines for each of my main characters. Along the way it makes me wonder what a supporting character from one point in time or another should look like, so I wind up playing with DAZ and...
Voila! A random moment gets rendered.
Right now I'm filling in some of the blanks for Deshret's history and looking for a good jumping-on point for short stories starring him. But like Ysabel who's known and loved a lot of men in her time, Deshret has known and loved a lot of women, so it does get confusing trying to keep track of everyone.

I bet there's a place in your head where all of those things get stored and it's a huge mess.
