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.

Another cracker! Love your characters, the addition of some background is just icing for a great image.
Very nice work!
LyleAryn
Thanks!

First class work.
LyleAryn
Thank you.
LyleAryn
Thank you very much!

Awesome revision. Definitely needed to see those ears. She's got attitude and nothing screams attitude like a blue haired vixen with a sword in one hand and a flintlock in the other. Now I would suggest that she acquire a boot knife by the next time we get to see her. . Never let em take you to ground without a plan. A totally lovely revamp. Awesome work.
LyleAryn
Thanks. I imagine there's a few other weapons hidden. She does have that coat, and the boots are nice and tall.
So glad you like it. Always good to see you around, my dude.
JohnnyM
Excellent image and well worth the effort you put into it! The attention to the small details really shows! You are certainly right about the ears, they are too nice to cover up! I like it! :-)
LyleAryn
Thank you. I appreciate the feedback.
Belit
She looks great Lyle. I watched your video last night and learned a few things that has helped me ease into my Daz Journey. Thank you.
LyleAryn
Aww, that's a really nice thing to say. I'm glad I was able to help, in some small way.

Another great scene, Lyle, I love the figure and her costume, and I really love how you can look longer at this and peer through the mist and see all the wonderful detail in the background. Great depth. :)
LyleAryn
I really appreciate your feedback, Bella. Thank you for stopping in and leaving a comment.

Well there is no mistaking her now! She looks marvelous!
LyleAryn
Thanks a bunch! Have a great day. So glad you made the time.
Lord_of_CNF
after enjoy your text... step to the image - it's great and you are right, that hair is better also to see the ears now! maybe she need a belt where she can put in her weapons.....
nice work!
LyleAryn
The way the jacket sits made the belt unfeasible. However, I did just pick up the "mesh grabber" tool. So maybe next time. Got a group shot to do soon.
Deva3D
Great image and excellent scene!
LyleAryn
Thanks, Deva!
romangirl
A sexy first mate! Great scene!
LyleAryn
Her and the captain are pretty... Close.
RG19
The extra work paid off!!!! Beautiful colors as well!!!!!!!!
LyleAryn
Thank you. I'm glad you like her.

Lovely revision of the original....and it works very nicely....obviously you could continue to do this indefinitely....as you change one thing other possibilities open up....as with the belt that has been mentioned...sheath belt, shoulder holster....would be interesting to see boots with a heel....quality lighting and render...top notch work...!
LyleAryn
I'm hoping the mesh grabber tool will help with the belt. I worked quite a bit on trying to get one to work. Has to be over the coat to make sense. Might try the shoulder belt that came with the Captain's coat with a sheath.
She's still got her group photo, so at least one more chance to get a belt to work. For here, we'll just say she was in a hurry and just grabbed her sword from the wall.
(I actually have a couple more renders planned with her... Hmm... Hope they're liked when they appear.)
It's sad how often sword props are sold with sheaths to fit them!
Have a good day, and thanks for the feedback.
(As for heels of any sort... Not so practical for the deck of a ship! I got some great boots with heels on them.)
adrie
Another gorgeous render my friend, this character is really amazing.....love it.
LyleAryn
Thank you. I really like her a lot now that I messed with it some more.

SHE WILL SORT THEM OUT

Nice work .
LyleAryn
Thank you. I want to don another scene with her and the Captain, but I got other renders ahead of it. And... A commission! Wow. First one. Hope I do a good job. Have a great weekend.

Great work!!! I like it.
LyleAryn
Thanks!

Excellent image! Excellent work! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
LyleAryn
Thank you very much, ADC. Much obliged.

Awesome scene!
LyleAryn
Thanks. I'm so glad!

Sleep? Wazzat??
Yeah, I really love her look here - fantastic work as always. All that time definitely paid off, my friend!
It's amazing how much time goes into all those little 'tweaks' and getting the details just right. Our work patterns are quite similar.
LyleAryn
Sleep is the thing that lays beyond the dream. Or that's my theory, anyway.
Actually, I'm still awake. From before I posted this. Had a bit of near-sleep dozing, but that's it. SOO TIRED!
Thanks for having a look. I got the fourth member of the crew rendering now. She's taking longer than the other three combines, for some reason. But. I think she'll be worth it. However, I'm hankering to get more work done on my commission (first one, and I wasn't even looking) and really anxious to get started on the fifth member of the crew. Got some older props I'm hoping to make shine. If you look at my twitch, you can see me working on Crew Member Number Four in the previous broadcast.
Don't work yourself too hard.

She can be my Mate, any old time! I like this very much indeed!
LyleAryn
Thank you. Sometimes in life, we just got to go be pirates for a while.

Perfect combination of character, clothing, and atmosphere. I like the way you keep improving your images and thinking them through.
LyleAryn
I'd say that this art style suits my particular combination of mental illnesses perfectly. Thanks for stopping by!

dangerous and sexy, beautiful rendering
LyleAryn
Thank you very much!

very determined warrior but yet very desirable. I am not in a very good mental condition myself of late
LyleAryn
Aww. I will pray for you, my friend. And: You are number 30. That's the most comments I've had on a single piece! Kind of a milestone, I think.
Have a good evening, and thanks for stopping by.
