Liz the Soldier

Liz the Soldier

Here’s Liz depicted as a soldier. I’m particularly happy with the way this image turned out. Hopefully other people will agree and it’s not just because I dropped myself on my head when I was little, again when I was a teenager, and not to mention all the other concussions I’ve given myself… I digress, I probably had too much coffee and cacao this morning… It’s got me feeling like I just wanna party!

Sneak Preview: Liz the Warrior

Warrior Liz

This is the first picture of Liz with her very own custom skin textures! I created her custom body morph and Shox-Design created her skin textures (although I actually painted the warrior makeup shown in this image). This is my first time collaborating with another artist, so far it’s been awesome! I look forward to working with Shox-Design more!!!

Yet another image of Liz… This time I rendered her with Teen Josie 7’s skin. I also tried a little different lighting scheme then what I would typically do.

Let me know what you think!

A Tribute to Psylocke

Liz As Psylocke 01

This is my character Liz (pic 1, pic 2) that I have been working on portrayed as Psylocke. I’m a big fan of Marvel Comics superheros! I had a lot of fun working on this character and the scenes I’ve rendered her in, so far. I think the superhero genre might be one of my main focuses from here on out.

Let me know who your favorite superheros are and if there’s any you would like to see portrayed in my render style!

Liz Pic 2 of 2

This is a character I’ve been working on, with Victoria 7’s skin. She’s supposed to be a supermodel/superhero. I sculpted her in ZBrush from Daz’s Genesis 3 Female. She’s my first attempt at making a character in ZBrush. So far, I’m really enjoying sculpting in ZBrush and want to do a lot more of it :D. Please let me know what you think of her!

As of right now I’m considering her body and face shapes final. I worked on her face some more after posting the first pix of her on DeviantArt (laylo3d.deviantart.com), so her face is actually a little different in these pictures.

Now I’ll see about skin mats for her.

ASN 4’s Gonna Getcha!

ASN 4's Gonna Getcha!

I thought this robot, ASN 4, was super cool, so I picked it up recently during March Madness from Daz. This is the first render I’ve put together using it, so far. It’s not 100% what I was going for, but I think it’s about as close as I can get staying strictly within Daz Studio.
