Description
Actually I wanted to show you something else today, a picture I am quite enthusiastic about. Unfortunately I had to realize that the typical render time of 7h overnight is not enough and now I have to look when I can run it ~12h or so. It is simply too "dark", iray needs eternally.Therefore there is now another perspective of a picture from last year. Here's first picture:

Inspired by a scene from the book which I read years ago: "Die Orks" (the Orcs).
Models & Assets by Daz3D etc.
Composing, render (Iray) & postwork by me
Tools: Daz3d Studio 4.9 & Photoshop CC

Pure awesomeness, love the camera angle and how it really enhances the danger and mood. So many great details in this scene

Probably would be better that way, although death might also have its merits in this way.

Tolle Arbeit.

Dankeschön!
Aber warum nicht? Wenn man schon sterben muss, wieso nicht durch ein Succubus?

Also so gesagt.... Dann möchte ich mehrmals sterben...

Thank you very much.
Yes, in the book I believe an orc or troll shaman sacrifices a human in this way. Must have been very memorable, because it must have been 15 years ago when I read it.

That's a shame about the limits of Iray, but this is great. The lighting is excellent, but it's that perspective that really stands out. The composition adds so much to the theme.

Yes, but I like the "realistic" look of iray much better, so I have to go through it somehow. Probably get a render while I'm working, then I'll be able to do 12-16h.
I'm glad you like it so much.

Awesome Succubus scene. Love the perspective of this picture; and the previous one. Like how the guy is chained up, on the sacrificial table: and his expression says everything, as the succubus is about to deliver a fatal blow, with her knife. Also, like the bones scattered around of her victims; and the book of magic, also nearby. Well done!

Thank you very much!
In the book that inspired me, I believe it was an old female orc or troll shaman who sacrificed a human in this way. Must have been very memorable, because it must have been 15 years ago when I read it.

It is great when books, films, or games inspire us, to do art; as this book, has inspired you, to make the Succubus scene!
I have seen a few Succubus artworks before on Deviant Art or Facebook, but there are many, which sort of show the character in a more friendly and kind way, instead of cruel.
But, in reality. They are meant to be demon women, who make love to their victims and then literally suck the life force out of them. So, I think the idea of the sacrificial table and knife works very well, with this type of character.
Wishing you a great Monday and a productive week!

Yes, basically we are inspired by all impressions, but in the end we usually don't know exactly what the idea was made up of in the end. In that case, it was clear to me.
As a small easter egg, the man on the table is the unofficial DAZ model that Geralt is supposed to represent from the Witcher series. So the one who kills the succubi in the books and games. I only changed his hair.
Thanks, I wish you a nice week too!

That sounds cool, to put in your own Witcher Easter egg, into the artwork. I like playing the Life is Strange games; and they tend to put a lot of Easter eggs in too of different tv programmes or games.
Have a lovely Tuesday and an excellent week!

Life is Strange was really great, too. I wonder what the second part is about and if I can identify with it. But I'll wait until all the episodes are out.

Life is Strange 2 is meant to be in the same universe, but with different character. There is a currently a free demo out called 'The awesome adventures of Captain Spirt', where you play a 10 year old child, who imagines himself as a superhero. I haven't finished playing it yet, but it reminds me of my childhood. Also, cool, when you see his powers animated; and then later realise; that it is all in the kids imagination. I'm hoping at the end of the story, he might actually get real powers though. But, we will have to see. Some people in my LIS group think that the new story might be about the Chris, after he has grown up.
Have a great Thursday!

I played the free mini-game right on the day it came out. It's only two hours.
However, there were a few hints in the game that might also point to other possible topics.
We will see. I could identify well with Max, so I'm not sure if part 2 touches me as well or not.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
If you haven't played all the episodes of Life is Strange, then I suggest you do. It get pretty crazy towards the end; and a lot of developments, in the storyline.
Yes, I was a bit swayed, with it not having Max in it, as she was my favourite character of the game, with her rewind quality. But, I think this kid called Chris is pretty cool, as a character. I am hoping that his imagined super powers will become real, in Life is Strange 2, as I believe the demo is meant to attach somehow to the new story.
I hope you have had a great week. Wishing you a fun Saturday and a lovely weekend!

Yes, I have played all Life is Strange episodes and the prequel. Unfortunately, only once.
Max was introverted and a photographer, which suits me a little, so I liked her even more and could identify with her.
Then we are curious about part 2 and what it will be about. But like I said, I'm not buying it until all the episodes are out. The cliffhanger are too exciting for me.
Thanks, have a nice week.

It is always worth playing the games again. Because sometimes, you notice Easter eggs, or different dialogue, from changing your actions. I also like the theories, which fans would come out with; concerning the characters. I always wanted Life is strange to continue, where it left off. When Max smiled at Chloe funeral, at the end of the game. It could have just been her seeing the butterfly; and knowing that Chloe was well, in another existence. But, I always wondered, if she had thought up another way, where she could save Arcadia Bay; and also Chloe. I thought Life is strange 2 could have been Max using her powers more proficiently; with more experience of time travel. And, that Samuel would be like the father of time. Who would become like the Yoda to Luke in Star Wars. But, he would tell Max, how she could change things, without causing the chaos effect. But, it looks like there are new characters. I have noticed the odd like Easter Egg in the demo of 'The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, which point back to Blackwell, or Chloe and Rachel, when they went off on the train. So, even if the characters are all knew. I am sure, they will be mentions of Chloe and Max in there, somewhere.
I never really understood, why there wasn't three options though. You could have saved both Arcadia Bay and Chloe; if only you could have used the dark room. Because, we know from a letter; that it was a storm bunker, underground. So, they could have all just gone there, instead of the dinner; and survived the destruction; if things went back to normal, after the storm had passed.
I think I will do the same. And, wait until the full Life is strange episodes are out. I will just have to make sure; that I don't get any spoilers from the people in my LIS group, while I wait!
Have a lovely Monday and a great week!

I have quite a few games on the ToDo list, so I rarely get to play one game twice.
So I only knew the other end, I chose Chloe. I read what the alternative was afterwards.
I don't think they wanted a third possibility, so no "happy end" to give the decisions more weight.
Basically it was almost disappointing that, as so often in games, you have to decide at the very end and all the decisions before that have little or no effect.
Luckily I'm not in any Facebook groups or similar, so hopefully the spoiler danger is not so big for me. This is more dangerous with various TV series, as my colleagues there talk far too often.

Yes, I guess it is difficult to fit in games: and then have the time, to replay them.
It was a bit annoying; that there was only two choice, so everything you had done beforehand; didn't really matter. Despite them telling you; that your choice had consequences. Although, I didn't want to do it, I had to sacrifice Chloe, as I had to put the old strategy. Of one, to save a whole town. But, on my first play through, I wanted to save Chloe, and Arcadia Bay; and even Rachel, by using my time travel powers. But, sadly that was not to be. If I ever find a way, to mod the game, I might make my own animation up. How I would have liked to see it end!
It is good, if you aren't in any LIS Facebook groups. But, yes. It is all too easy, for someone to spill the beans, on what is happening on a TV programme, when you need to catch up on it! Enjoy your day!

Na dann erfüllt es ja seinen Zweck. Die Szene aus dem Buch die als Inspiration diente, hatte ich auch noch nach ~15 Jahren im Kopf.

Interessantes Buch! Aber nicht Herr der Ringe, oder?

Nein, HdR ist nicht so "brutal" bzw. ich bin auch kein großer Fan davon. Die Filme sind schön anzusehen, aber die Bücher fand ich schrecklich zu lesen. Andererseits hat er das Fantasy-Genre geprägt (um nicht erfunden zu sagen) wie kein anderer.
Bin mir gerade selbst nicht sicher, entweder war es: "Die Orks" oder "Die Trolle". Aber beides keine Buchreihen die man unbedingt gelesen haben muss, vor allem letztere, hab Band 2 nie beendet.

Ich schau mal, die Bücher stehen bei meinem Sohn zu m Regal. HdR könnte man nur in der Ausgabe als grünes Taschenbuch lesen. Die Übersetzung ist gut zu lesen.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Die grüne habe ich auch gelesen, aber irgendwie kann ich den Hype darum nicht nachvollziehen, da habe ich eindeutig bessere Fantasy-Reihen gelesen.
Aber ich kann den Büchern aus der Perspektive, wann und wie sie geschrieben wurden und dass sie Fantasy Genre quasi gebohren haben, großen Respekt entgegen bringen. Auch für die Mühe die er sich für die elbische Sprache gemacht hat. Aber was den Hype angeht, halte ich es für ein wenig "verklärte Nostalgie".

Das liegt bestimmt daran, das Du schon viel Ähnliches gelesen hast. Damals war das echt Neu.

Das kommt davon 
Klasse Perspektive und du hast dir wirklich Mühe mit den Details gegeben!
Was die Renderzeit angeht... 12 Stunden hab ich auch regelmässig... eher mehr bei den finalen Versionen.
Bei Iray lassen sich die Lichtquellen heller stellen, manchmal hilft das (+ nachher in PS über den Raw-Filter Belichtung runter), aber es ist immer eine Überwindung stundenlang 'falsch' zu rendern in der Hoffnung das Postwork wird es dann richten

Dankeschön!
Gegenüber der ersten Perspektive fallen mir von oben leider 1-2 Dinge mehr auf, die mich im nachhinein stören. Hab aber mal wieder glaub 4 Perspektiven gerendert, da ich mich nicht für eine entscheiden konnte.
Lasse mein PC ungern laufen wenn ich nicht zuhause bin und da ich daheim fast nur am PC hocke, kann ich das Rendern eigentlich nur immer die ~7h über Nacht laufen lassen. Brauch also eig. einen eigenen Render PC, auf eine Cloud Lösung wie bei anderen 3D Programme kann man vermutlich vergeblich warten. Müssten dann ja je nach Projekt aufgrund der Abhängigkeiten automatisch ein sehr umfangreiches Paket an Texturen und Objekten zusammengestellt werden.
Aktuell render ich meist mit 4000px Kantenlänge und breche es aus Zeitmangel oft zu früh ab. In "Internetgröße" fällt es dann weniger auf, dass es noch zu stark rauscht und gedruckt, vor allem auf Echtofotpapier fällt so was nicht mehr so arg ins Gewicht.
Auch was die Iray Einstellungen angeht, da hatte ich am Anfang viel experimentiert (/gelesen) und hab seit dem "die eine Einstellung" die ich kaum noch anfasse. Ich weiß, dass man da eig. je nach Bild / Motive rumspielen könnte/sollte.
Das mit den helleren Lichtquellen funktionier bestimmt gut, zumindest bei manchen Motiven und in beschränktem Rahmen. So lang nix komplett überbrennt. Jetzt lass ich es wohl die Tage erst einmal 0-18 Uhr laufen und hoffe PC geht nicht in Flammen auf oder so was verrücktes.

P.S. HDR Film oder Buch ist natürlich etwas Geschmackssache... aber ich finde Tolkien viel verdaulicher als z.B. Herbert oder Asimov ...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ich bin vermutlich zu jung, für die alten Romane und deren Schreibstil. Wobei ich HDR immerhin komplett gelesen habe, was man von manch anderen "großen Reihen" nicht sagen kann. Zum Beispiel: "Das Schwert der Wahrheit", kam nie über das zweite Buch hinaus. Mein Fantasy Favorit ist (neben Das Lied von Eis und Feuer) weiterhin "Das Spiel der Götter" wie es im deutschen heißt. Auch wenn ich weiterhin angepisst bin, dass die letzten Bücher des abgeschlossenen Zykluses seit unzähligen Jahren überfällig sind, was die deutsche Übersetzung angeht => weil der Übersetzer wohl pers. Probleme hatte. Und die Romane sind zu komplex für mein bescheidenes Englisch. Wobei es dieses Jahr angeblich weitergeht... aber müsste erst die zig tausend Seiten lesen um wieder drin zu sein.
