Fluorescent - Beauty of Woman's Body Contest - WEEK #198

I gave myself the following criteria…create nude portrait, a single frontal light source...with a glowing pendant. I wasn't sure whether yellow or white light was better, so I did both. And this render was the result.

This render is an entry to the Beauty of Woman's Body Contest - WEEK #198
Thank you to @axeman and World of Xpilar for hosting this contest.

Started with a Genesis 8 Female Template.

Added a chair.

After I completed the model (morphed and position the body), I added her to the scene with the fluorescent lighting.

Add a texture and color.

Tools, assets and techniques used:

Daz3D Studio, Iray and Photoshop
Genesis 8 Female Template
RN Kayla Hair and Necklace
SE Chair
Fluorescent Lighting
Black Background

In Summary:

• I start out with a model template and morph the body physically.
• I put the body into a position, change facial expressions, add makeup, dress the model, add skin texture, props, etc…
• I either can embed the character into the background or wrap the environment around the character, then add lighting and camera settings, like depth of field.
• Rendering times can take 10 minutes to 2 hours per render.
• Postwork in Photoshop (adding imperfections in the skin, changing atmosphere, creating depth of field, etc…)

Stay frosty people.
