Hello, all! I've been busy with setting up my new work station and getting back into the art groove. I started this a while back (longer than a month I think) and it was mostly to test the lighting, model texture, and camera angles. Last night I bought a ton of new stuff to play with in Daz, so I decided to go through some old renders and find something to finish. I never really had a story for the scene, but came up with one. Considering the character is from a story filled with magic, it only made sense that there are some crazy magical events that take place. Like spellstorms. I liked the idea of storms made of magic, that can cause anything to happen. And it's both beautiful and chaotic. In the scene, my character, Kina, watches the storm pass through, along with her little pal (the butterfly) Toph. Toph can pretty much turn himself into whatever small creature he wants. I thought a butterfly form would really fit well with the scene. I mostly used Flame Painter and Pixeluvo in post, as Photoshop somehow destroyed the actual image. The text on the pages were on a separate layer and whenever I used a gaussian blur or did anything to the layer (like merge it with another), the image was suddenly filled with artifacts and chunks of the image missing. The original PSD was ruined due to accidentally saving it while this was occurring. Luckily, I still had my Flame Painter copy so it wasn't a total loss. I made the loose pages in Blender and imported them into Daz. The actual render looked really nice and I almost used it as the final image (instead of doing post work), but decided I didn't want an overcast, stormy atmosphere. I figured a spellstorm could be just the opposite! Software used: Daz Studio 4.14 Pro, Flame Painter 4, Pixeluvo, Blender GPU: RTX 2060 Logitech G600 Mouse, Huion Kamvas 13
