This is not an update
🕑 Added 2019-07-23 21:06:10 +0000 UTCHere I am sitting down, crafting facial expressions when I finally manage a look of exasperation and amusement. Just what did our MC say to her? I'm rather pleased with how this looks so I'm releasing this to everyone as a quick mid-week peek!
This is just a screengrab from DAZ, final render with colour correction will look much better!
Edit: Looking at this again, I realized this might be a great chance to show the sort of things that I look at when crafting an image like this and why it's so time consuming!
- Slight highlight on her lower lip, getting the right angle and amount of light to hit is really hard.
- Reflection on glasses. Some of these are faked with an off screen light source, tuned just to hit that perfectly. Without it the glasses look fake.
- Orange rim light on her shoulders, makes her pop out better from the background, getting that to look right without her skin looking orange is an art unto itself!
- Blue light catching the screen left side of her face, placed wrongly that will fight with the other lights causing unpleasant shadows and skin tones.
That's of course on top of the usual scene lighting, finger posing, expressions and wardrobe and getting that depth of field to look right. I've taken to painting out intersections in Photoshop so that should be less of an issue now.
Most of these are subtle but adds that touch of realism and gives it a more cinematic look. Hopefully this gives a better insight into the process needed to bring this story to life. Every frame a painting indeed!
For the Patreons though, watch this space for a proper update this weekend plus some sexy shots :)

Not sure where to vote, but I always prefer mostly romance with just a bit of corruption to eventually make sex possible. Great story so far. Looking forward to the progression
She in this look is so beautiful lady
