When you accidentally dForce your model instead of her dress. 

I would be lying if I said I hadn't done this.

I am generally doing it less often though...

I didn't even see what you posted, so no worries.

 

WELP.  In the occasion of this being Spooky Season, I did something a little horrible.

Or maybe a lot horrible.

James Bennington Throttlewood, usually called JB by people who know him. He's Edgar's second cousin, and yes... he IS a human-pig hybrid.

Well, they do say men are pigs. But in some cases it seems a little more literal.

We'll not talk about poisoned M&Ms, but JB is proud to be a pig. He originates from a parallel dimention (similar to Veil in your story) where magical beings and humans mingle together in the 80s cartoon version of the middle ages. JB's family are pig farmers, but instead of raising piglets for meat they train them to sniff out truffles and other valuable things found in nature. After having done something to really, and I mean really cheese off the Queen of a local Fairy Court, JB got exiled to another dimention for seven years. He asked the Queen if he could bring with him a group of piglets he was raising, and she obliged. On arriving in his new home world, JB discovered that his piglets had become four little boys - human except for having portruding noses and pointed ears. Then he discovered that his own face had gained the same features! The wicked Fairy Queen had played a trick on him, by splicing his DNA with that of the piglets.  But she had also given him a new family.

As for why JB's relative Edgar also has a flat, upturned nose, well.... He may not be unacquainted with a certain Fairy Queen himself.

Wow, it's been a long time with no activity here on my part. I actually don't think I've ever been gone for that long before. Working on a book project, and being hooked on a retro video game, just stole my time. ANYwho, I was feeling the urge to dial some peeps again, and decided to be ambitious. Maybe, just maybe, I could finally succeed in creating a passing model of Annie's sister Natalie. You know what, I think I did! Have a super low-effort render. 
 

Now I need to catch up on friends' threads!

This is another render that came to be almost by accident. I usually light everything with HDRIs, but I was looking at pictures in the gallery done by peeps who actually understand lighting, and I went in with copycat intentions. But then I noticed how nicely the moon reflected in her eyes, and I said "Nevermind, I'mma do a TigerAnne classic." 

I spent way too much time making a non-descript background. Then I rendered the scene four times, with tiny adjustments. Finally I slapped a lot of different filters on the one that came out marginally best, and uploaded the two versions I liked best after comparing them all. The model is Natalie once again, wearing the same shirt even. She's still a work in progress.

Is it strand-based hair? if so add more seed to it I use at least about 10,000 seed for a super head of hair, might be much but it looks good in the end. Ur  art is good, and funny, If your judging it on appearance, it's 99% in the lighting, adjust lighting and you can turn any of ur art into daz masterpieces, but they still are masterpieces, not all artists have the same views.

I don't think so. It's the Flora Hair by Windfield. If a hair product is strandbased it usually says in the description. I think it's fibermesh with really good textures.

Well, thank you!

Just a example about what I said about lighting, your picture above, with different lighting...
