I am the author Lyle Aryn. Writing is my first love, my one true passion. Every since I was able to string a sentence together, it's all I've wanted to do. Websites where you can find my work and more are below.
I started using Daz Studio October 23rd of 2018, just as something to dink around with. I'd been signed up with the sight for a while, and would occasionally remember to check for freebies. I was surprised at what I had when I finally loaded up the program. I just started playing around with it, figuring it out. I'd say about 92% of what I've learned in the program I've learned just by playing around with it.
In December I went from being a dutiful son looking after his mom, to the full-time, no nights or weekends off, caretaker of my Mom. As someone who struggles with depression, anxiety and a mood disorder or two, this change has had a drastic impact on my own personal care and well-being. I turned to my blossoming love of doing digital art as a way to cope with the mountains of stress on my shoulders. I do miniature painting, too. But when you haven't slept in 4 days, handling a brush can be very messy. Not being able to paint to my own personal satisfaction was making this avenue of relaxation increasingly frustrating.
Daz Studio has an undo button that you just don't get with painting miniatures.
As my skill with the program grows, so does my confidence. I did the cover to my fifth novel, "Because the Night" using Daz Studio, as well as new covers for two previous releases. (Though they haven't been updated just yet.)
I'm looking to always improve my artistic work, no matter what the medium, and Daz Studio is no different.

Superb neon glow. Great render and prop use.
LyleAryn
Thank you. I like how the light manages to bounce up enough from the floor to light her face subtly.
Darkglass
Very cool....great use of colour...and some nice shadow and light play.....!!
LyleAryn
Thanks! I'm glad those things were noticed. I went from envisioning a complicated scene, to a subtle one. Subtle can be quite difficult. I also wanted to make sure that the sphere was the only light in the room so I didn't end up spending umpteen hours adjusting luminosity levels.

very seductive pinup and class lighting
LyleAryn
Ah, yes. Thanks. So, to break it down, if you've been watching the gallery: This is Sasha. She was Lenny's SO. By the time my book ends, she had been murdered and has been dead for some time. She worked in a modeling agency, where she mentored Rachel. The same agency hired Amira. (The two with the car.) Part of Lenny's arc is moving past her grief to explore a relationship with Skye (She with the pink hair.)
I'm glad you like. I imagine most pics I do of Sasha will be on this nature, since they'll probably be photographs placed around Lenny's house.

Magnificent lighting and fantastic results for this photo shoot! Most excellent example of your fine creative mind!
LyleAryn
Thank you! Using Daz studio has become almost like when I sit and write. I just start by loading a character and follow it where it takes me. Sometimes, like this time, I'll have a goal. Sometimes I'm trying to illustrate a scene. But always I try to step out of the way of whatever artistic muse decides to work through me.

Lovely of you to say. Thank you very much.

You know what's interesting? The feathers and the tulip are all in contact with the ground plane.
I don't know how the shadows formed that way, but I think it looks cool. So there.
