Started with a Genesis 8 Female Templates.

Added an apartment environment.

Added a bed and food tray.

Added the completed model, after I morphed the body, changed her position, facial expression, and added a nighty.

Added texture to the scene.

Final render.

Tools and assets used:

Daz3D Studio, Iray and Photoshop
Genesis 8 Female Template
2021-07 Hair
XF Embroidery Clothes
HDRI Lighting
Winter Vacation 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 can take 10 minutes to 2 hours per render.
• Postwork in Photoshop (adding imperfections in the skin, changing atmosphere and lighting, etc…)

Stay frosty people.
