Started with a Genesis 8 Female Template.

Added a crystal ball.

Added the completed model, after I morphed the body, added hair, makeup, changed her position, facial expression, and added clothes.

First render.

Added rain and moisture to the skin, second render.

Tools and assets used:

Daz3D Studio, Iray
Genesis 8 Female Template
Hotba Hair
Untamed Kitty Clothes
Ultimate Moisture Shell
HDRI Lighting
FGG Crystal Ball
Background

In Summary:

• I start out with a model template and morph the body physically.
• I put the body into a position, change facial expressions, add makeup, dress the model, add skin texture, props, etc…
• I either can embed the character into the background or wrap the environment around the character, then add lighting and camera settings, like depth of field.
• Rendering times can take 10 minutes to 2 hours per render.

Stay frosty people.
