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.

Yup! Got to love getting new clothes, right? And she transferred so well! I kinda don't think I'll ever need to pic up Girl 8...

She is a quite fun character. Most definitely use her in some other Genres. Itβs fun to see you having fun with the character. Very nice work.
LyleAryn
Thanks. She's just too much fun to let sit by the wayside, even if I don't finish her book. I think I will, though. Honestly, I really got to get back to writing. I've been pushing myself to be more "visible" to my friends, and I know I haven't been in the right headspace to write. But... I think this week I'll be pushing myself to get the novel I'm working on done, maybe through some words Velvet's way, and get ready to start Book Four of my Fantasy series.

She's looking great, my friend! Sweet work.
I hear ya on the writing - too fresh stuff.. I have soooo many ideas I could incorporate into the TNA story, but I need to sort out a bunch of it and figure out where to put it, or if to even use it at all. Some of the stuff I've already written seems..... Shall we say ... a bit too close to reality lately..
LyleAryn
Yeah, I hear that. Often if I feel strongly about a world event, I'll write something of an essay about it, and let it sit. So many times, something that seems SOOOO important today becomes irrelevant in a week or two.
I also try to keep real-world stuff out of my fiction. I write mostly lesbian characters, but I've made it a point to not push the narrative into whatever buzz-trend is going on when I'm writing it. I focus, instead, on the relationships themselves. I didn't start writing such work to make a statement. I like to think that ten years from now, it will still read the same, rather than having relied upon real-world issues.
The other thing is to be careful not to rush off on every Shiny New Idea, lol. Best to let some of them simmer a while.

Does she need reworking? This is awesome!
LyleAryn
Come to think of it, I think you're right! Thanks for the feedback!
