Hi there =) !
I have been having fun with 3D since 2005. But have found very little time to play with it because of work. I have been regularly disappearing from Renderosity for years on end over the last 14 years. Got a little more serious about it around 2015. Having created my own character Miho now keeps me busy and totally engrossed in her and her adventures. There are so many more things to learn. Just need to find time for it. I love to render her and hopefully my galleries shows you how passionate I am about rendering her in her different adventures... To really appreciate my renders, you probably will need to read the stories I write. They given the context to my renders. My renders consists of mixture of all sorts of genre - Erotic, sci-fi, fantasy, action, wildlife, etc... basically anything to tell the story about my Miho's adventures...
As for the softwares I use, my primary 3D application is Daz Studio for scene setup. I do my rendering via the Otoy's Octane plugin for Daz Studio. I used ZBrush to create Miho (as a complete character Morph). I also use it for any geometry corrections that I need to make to any element on the scene and for creating custom morphs of items (hair, clothing, props, etc) I have purchased that I find are lacking the required morphs. I also have Vue, Surface Painter, Marvelous Designer, Photoshop CC, Quixel's Megascan Studio, World Creator 2.0 - though I have not used them much. It is something I want to change and start using them for most of my renders.
I don't do postwork to edit my render and enhance them in any way. My aim is to see what I can achieve within the Octane render engine. What you see in my images is what is the output of the Octane plugin. If I do the rare postwork to enhance my renders, I mention it in my 'About this render' section. Yes I do add my copyright message to the render in Photoshop but that I do not consider that as postwork. I do like to share what I did on a render and hopefully it is of some use to you. If you have any questions regarding any of my renders or the techniques that I use, feel free to drop me a Site Mail or ask while commenting on my uploads. I will definitely respond to you.
In my free time I am also aiming to learn to create clothing via Marvelous Designer and ZBrush and also learn modeling in ZBrush. Hopefully within this year (2019).
Do poke around my gallery and leave your thoughts and comments. They are much appreciated.
Take care.
Cheers,
Rajib
