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.

It's like she's decorated for Christmas!

She's certainly (a) present! Thanks.

Very pretty, it makes us think of Christmas before time... LOL.

Looks like everything turned out well for you...this render looks awesome! Take care and rest that arm! :-)
LyleAryn
Thank you! The best thing I can do is just keep on trucking. And try not to miss the sights along the way.

She might think that soon is Christmas, is she???? Leave the Christmas stuff and take care of your arm, it can take a long time until it is OK again!
LyleAryn
I hear ya. It's pretty weak today, but... I've had one thing after another get in the way of getting any writing done, and by golly I'm going to write today!
My sister calls them "fairy lights" and she'll use 'em year round. I kind of was going for a pride-themed render. I guess too many people just associate the lights with Christmas. Hmm. Well, I'll do another later with a more typical light set-up so we can see all the other details. She's got rainbow hair! Wooo!
Happy Sunday to you.

amazing render my friend ... i love the lights and she looks totally awesome
LyleAryn
Thank you. I really like Vasillisa. She's got a distinctive look, and though they're hard to work with, pouty lips that make my heart do the flip-flop.
hashdoc
she looks amazing in this lighting!
LyleAryn
Thanks! I think every character I purchased from Renderosity was done more or less on a whim. And I like each of them. I just sorta forget to render them up, since my Smart Content figure collection is so extensive.
I've got too many models... (And I don't think I've bought my last, either!)

I know a similar scene, every year I struggle with the Cristbaum lighting.LOL Wonderful image,beautiful done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LyleAryn
Thank you. I wanted to adjust the lights into more of a rainbow pattern, or at least red/dark pink/pink/white. But there was no easy way to set that up. (SO MANY SURFACE NODES!) So I stuck with the default "Purple" and used my spotlights to bring more pink into the image. This meant washing out the colors in her hair, but even so. I think it turned out really nice.
I might play with the colors at another time. It's not difficult, just time consuming. And, even if I don't, I really like the image.

Beautiful lighting a wonderful image my friend :)
LyleAryn
Thank a lot! Happy Sunday!
STEVIEUKWONDER
Such a happy bunny! Nice work here!
LyleAryn
Thanks! She is pretty sweet, ain't she?
Radar_rad-dude
A fine looking character. Well achieved!
LyleAryn
Thank you. My favorite impulse purchase!

Back when I was shooting models (with a camera... LOL), I wanted to do something like this - preferably with a nude model - but never had the opportunity. This is great!
Now, I'm gonna have to give this a shot in Poser.... 😉
LyleAryn
I figured I'd done enough nudes lately I'd let her have clothes on this time.
FurNose
Looks great! Reminds me a bit to my christmas render ("The season of lights") with cathy from 2016
LyleAryn
Nice! Yeah, I think I accidentally made Christmas art. Here I thought the shorts and t-shirt and rainbow colors and pink colors would make it appropriate for #pridemonth
-Wolfie-
Awesome lighting! I'm super happy you're having fun with my Roxx Hair, and the way I set up the surfaces! Makes it all worth while. lol
LyleAryn
Yes! Thank you. I wish more hair sets were set up like this.
