I'm a night-owl by nature. Inspired by a dramatic full moon night sky and some items in my Daz Studio runtime that I hadn't used...voila! Rendered via Iray in Daz 4.8 version. Many products gave their lives for this image. (if it's not noted WHERE they came from, then they're at Daz; the Renderosity & other store items specify the store.) The Setting... is one of the Iray HDR environments in Apocalyptic Plant Outdoor Set 1 by Dumor3D which I "remodeled" by adding stuff from various products: a foreground parking area (a scaled/flattened primitive dressed in the texture--with the curb part cut off--from Les Romantiques for Cheirocrates; a wall (rotated to lie flat) & assorted bits from Stonemason's Rubble 3 Modern Ruins; a slab from AntFarm's 13th Floor set; Traveler's Ground Litter Series Pebbles vol2; debris/rubble scatter & old overturned chair from West Park Treatment Room Specimen; leaf piles/scatters from Stonemason's The Pool House; miscellaneous plants & weeds from Predatron's Pred Pack Tall Weeds; storage barrel from Rusty Junk Set 1 by DryJack at ShareCG.com. The Moon & Sky... the sky in the Apocalyptic Plant Outdoor set HDRI environment was heavily covered by sweeping banks of cloud layers. I suspect the image was photographed in day and was toned to make it a night scene; there was a burned-out white disc visible in the HDRI sky which was either the moon or, if I'm guessing right, the sun. This was the light source in the HDRI. I "remodeled" the HDRI sky same way I did the landscape: with props. The moon is DC Glowmoon by Gareee, with the parts to show moon phases and the "glow" halo & other part set to invisible, so only the actual moon globe itself was used, placed waaay up & back in scene, and matching size & placement of original white disc (moon/sun?) in HDR image. I set the moon alight by making it emissive & the glow on the moon is a result of the emissive light, the Bloom filter settings for Iray engine, and the thinnest layers of clouds in front of moon object. Cloud arrangements of HDRI sky "remodeled" by adding various Iray Clouds by Stonemason around the sky as wanted & adjusting opacity, size etc to taste. (PS: so happy I bought those, because, the love!) The HDRI and the emissive moon illuminate the scene; the only other lights involved are little ones I parented to the courtesy lamps in the door consoles and under dash of the car. The Car... 1961 Lincoln Continental 4 door convertible, famous design icon, this model by Nationale7 at Renderosity.com and is stated as "Poser-only". It works fine in Daz, it turned out, but of course glass, chrome, car paint are things that often don't translate correctly from Poser engine-specific, so when I bought this and saw it (in pre-Iray days) in 3Delight it looked really bad on placing it in a scene. I re-materialized it for 3Delight and wow! Then I re-materialized later for Iray when it came around and..even more love! The wire-wheel rims, I cut one off of the Limo Prince car at Daz by running it through the chop-shop (Hexagon), then imported and scaled & placed and added chrome shader, then instanced and placed the other 3 wheels. The tires, I made custom whitewalls in photoshop to ape those premium brands with the whitewall and a thinner gold stripe, to replace the original very wide 1961 style whitewalls. New paint, leather, carpet & License plate; added actual lights to the courtesy lamp/dash lamps, and added screws from Tools & Toolbox by Valandar to the door jambs, license plate, headlamp buckets, & a little piece from Nurnies, Greebles and Parts v1 by DZ Fire to the door sill end where the window stops to look like the gasket/stop part on the actual car. The striker and latch plates were actually already on the model (points to National7 for details that matter!). The woodgrain looks lovely to me, and I don't recall even messing with those materials, except on the steering wheel which looked too light and too brite orangey, so I darkened it in the surface settings. I'm very very pleased I took a chance on buying this car to use in Daz, despite it being sold as a "poser only" product, because I love it, but beware, some poser items really do not work in Daz: example, I bought a PT Cruiser by another vendor on Renderosity, and the doors & hatch don't open, they stretch like membranes or something, very strange. So, obvious limits to usefulness there. The Guy... AlphaMale M5 by StudioArtVartanian from Renderosity on a Michael 5 figure with a tweaked mix of the AlphaM & M5 body morphs. I conceived this image initially with him standing there naked, clothes strewn on & in the yacht, and this texture was my pick because he's very tanned from waist up, but completely winter-pale waist down which made a great visual. Of course, I had groan-inducing working names for image in mind such as "The Night of the Double Full Moons," and "Two Moon Junction." Yeah. But the Iray Renders & the Michael & Friends forums at Daz inspired me to want to post something there (where I also posted this), and that whole nudity thing they have, about, uh, hating it, so. Shoes (plural-- I hate the fact that a separate product, just a pair of shoes by themselves, is made withthe 2 shoes as one object, so you can't have just 1 in a scene, or turn 1 of them sideways or on its side, because they both rotate etc. Bad product maker! Although they do look great!) are Hiking Shoes by Kool, dimly visible on floor of car in front of passenger seat. Red shirt ( ha ha!) thrown at his feet on car is from Simply Casual Boxers & Shirts G2M by Slosh (love those); blue cloth draped over driver seat back is a towel from Bath Wear G2M by Dumor3D which in my original idea of picture was going to be the jeans the naked guy had shucked, and so I'd applied a shader and arranged it to suggest a pair of jeans-- Oops, I sort of forgot and left them draped there after I'd made him put on the pants from Odd Wear for Genesis by XXXYYY, so who knows what they are now. OH--maybe the photographer's pants, he's off-camera & totally could be naked, even in SFW gallery! Bracelets from OnyTribal G2F by AeonSoul (bought at RDNA) with the horn elements turned off (very handy set of necklaces & bracelets in this item that look good on M or F models); Desir Hair by AeonSoul (bought at RDNA). There may be other incidental bits of products used in scene and forgotten but I think this is a fairly complete casualty list. :)
