The picture has been made in Poser 9, I've made the background with Bryce,the columns and background props in 3DS and the T-shirt its made in Hexagon. I've modified Dawn slightly using my own morphs made with Hexagon too, just a couple of details to make Dawn a bit different in my render, she looks pretty well without modifications. No postwork with image editors. From the begining the idea was showing Dawn standing still so the figure could be seen completely, I looked for a nice and simple background not capturing all the attention. I can't calculate how long it took in total because I had some problems with the lighting and rendering. It was very hard to achieve the light set I was looking for and not burning the image with the sunlight coming from the back.
