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.

LyleAryn
Thank you Anita.

She is a very exotic character in a most mysterious and almost frightening setting! So dark and foreboding! What can I say, other than, good job! Most excellent result, my friend! Many fine praises from me to you!
LyleAryn
Thanks, RRD! She's great to work with, with the way her skin catches light. The ideas was for her to mimic the light and dark of the background. Kind of a thematic effect. I hope it worked out.

Nice! I think she neds to do some replanting...
LyleAryn
There is some symbolism at play here. I think, story-wise, this will be her "Last" photo shoot. A bit of a swan song type of thing. It occurred to me this morning that there was more powerful themes at play in relation to the larger story.
If only I could split into three copies and write three books at once...

Striking character...very cool and detailed environment, lovely soft lighting just enough to bring out the details....!!
LyleAryn
Thanks! It wasn't easy, but I'm glad the lighting worked.

She is a most enjoyable character in a really nicely done scene. She has a definite dark side, but then so would I if I was murdered before you started the book.
LyleAryn
Thanks a lot! Yeah... I think part of it is my images tend to be viewed through Lenny's eyes, so of Sasha they tend more towards dark/gothic type stuff.

Great character and setting, love the pose too. The idea of the rose inthe greenhouse is a nice concept. ...though to my eye, a little less "headlamp" and more downlight (given its a glass roof, and with holes) might be worth a try...
LyleAryn
No headlamp, it is a spotlight. But I see what you mean. Maybe I'll try that on the next one. Thanks for the feedback!
