Queen Lianna, daughter of the Morrigan, rules with a fierce grace that belies her feminine exterior. Her eyes, a stormy blend of wisdom, love, and sorrow. They speak of battles fought and loved ones lost. Her spirit is an intricate tapestry woven with threads of wisdom, courage, compassion, and an unyielding sense of justice. She leads her people not just with the strength of her sword, but with the depth of her soul, understanding that true power comes from maintaining balance while embracing both the light and the shadows within. Image Info: The image was set up and rendered in DS 4.23.0.4 Beta. I started this image several months ago as a swimwear pinup style render. I had two "completed" versions with different swimsuits, but I never felt like posting them. Then Stangefate and Roguey got their new product "Duskbound" in the DAZ store, and the image I really wanted to create was born. I changed everything in the scene except for Lianna and her hair and it finally felt "right" The lighting is an HDRI from Click N' Render IBL with the addition of a few point light as rim lights and a very slight fill light from the camera headlamp (offset to the right of the image). I usually use spotlight for rim lighting, but for this image I wanted to add the light (not white) to the background elements as well. Post work was confined to just adding a bit of vignette, and a bit of unsharp mask (the unsharp mask was done on a second layer set to around 35% opacity to soften the effect). Of course the signature was added in post as well. Thanks for stopping by!! PS: Please be sure to view the image at full resolution to see all the details.
