Description
Lorenzo Bartolomeo Giovanecchi, il duca di Galeassi, is a powerful and cunning lord, not known for scrupulosity or honesty in his dealings. More commonly known as Lorenzo Testarossa, the duke has solidified his stronghold on the region, and has eyes for the lands beyond his borders. Lately, he has heard of a skillful mercenary named Francesco Ramiro in the nearby territory of Antalia. Ramiro is currently in the employ of one of Testarossa's rivals, Don Alfonso dell' Accada. It would be helpful, Testarossa considers, to have Ramiro convert to his cause....and to discover just what Ramiro's links are to the noble della Vedra family. The duke's mind swiftly goes into gear plotting.....
This one is for Leander, whose story and wonderful images from "The Academy" inspired me to create a character tangential to it and also to try to duplicate her marvelous lighting style in DAZ. If you haven't seen her gallery, its worth checking out, Leander2010. I think I have come close to her style....not quite as good as Leander... but getting there. I will let her be the judge. In any case it was a fun image and story to create and I hope you all enjoy it.
PS...the duke is more handsome in full view! :)
PSS...I had this scene fully constructed AND saved and when I tried to render it DAZ crashed. I opened my saved scene and every attempt at rendering crashed. So, the image you are looking at had to be fully recreated from scratch...and thankfully it rendered!!
Thanks for viewing and for all the comments and favs which are deeply appreciated and also give me inspiration!
Thanks also for comments and favs on my previous image "Embracing the Light (for pixeluna and chucknepo)":

In immeasurable talent to make and remake a fine work. We are moving away from classic portrait. It is a wonderful idea to plant all these sets! Congratulations and thank you for the story! I love it!

Recreated from scratch? Kudos to your patience, Marco! This is a wonderful image, especially in full view. Is he reaching toward drawing his sword? The stoniness of his gaze hints at that. Great storyline.

Excellent image my friend.

Awesome awesome render!!!!..next time daz crashes, try reducing the 'bucket size' on your render...from my experience (just look at some of my scenes lol) overloading daz memory will crash it......less bucket size will render a bit longer, but reduce memory usage. :)
