Today’s image – an attempt at modelling my wife in DAZ Studio

New digital artwork – Trouble in Elfland
Hi all, spent much of last week writing my textbook. But on Saturday started
Import 3D Fuse character into Photoshop
Hi folks, This is just a bit more experimentation and I thought you may want to tag along. So in my last post I created a character in Adobe Fuse and failed to import it into DAZ Studio. However documentation suggested that I could import it into the 3D functionality of Adobe Photoshop. I looked around YouTube and found this good tutorial by Victoria Pavlov. So I thought that I
Mutterings about Luxrender shadows compared to Iray
Ignore the post’s header picture. It’s an oldy that I used because I had nothing relevant and because I felt a bit like a mushroom today as I typed away in semi gloom. Anyway, on to today’s post.

This was frustrated for a week when my PostgreSQL database (the thing that manages all my content in DAZ) decided suddenly not to work. Stupid message about not being able
Using Lightroom on my digital art

Playing with Photoshop and a Black Forest photo
For no apparent reason I found myself doodling with Lightroom and Photoshop while processing my Black Forest photos. I guess I’ve had a few things on my mind recently.
