Added a hill and a fence line.

Added the semi-completed models, after I morphed the bodies, changed their positions, facial expressions, and added clothes.

Converted to black and white, then rendered.

Tools and assets used:

Daz3D Studio, Iray and Photoshop
Genesis 9 Female and Male Template
Maverick and Layered Winter Hair
Active Wear and Summer Dress Clothes
Daz3d and HDRI Lighting Background
Haven Park Environment

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 was about 4 hours.
• Postwork in Photoshop (adding imperfections in the skin, changing atmosphere and lighting, etc…)

Stay frosty people.
