Description
Poor thing can't seem to escape my computer monitor. This started out with the idea of making a desktop wallpaper where my model was mashed up against the glass. At first I hunted through my library for a breast squish pose to use but my morph and pose content for V4 is quite limited (and not nearly as organized as all my newer content). I did actually have one but it wasn't stellar.

Then I tried adding geometry smoothing, pushed her up against a plane of glass, and upped the collision levels. That didn't work out too great either. It caused some bizarre stretching when the skin went through the object. It now occurs to me that I might have partially solved that by making the glass thicker.

Eventually I switched to d-formers. Ugh. I'm getting better with them but they are still the most painful thing I've encountered in Daz. Overall though, I'm able to shave off significant amounts of time each time I practice with them.

When the squish looked good, I played with the glass, lighting, and the emissive lights behind her. Preset glass shaders weren't giving me the look I wanted so eventually I created my own from the ground up by fiddling with the dials.

I forced myself to run the final render when I had achieved the effect that I had envisioned. On the road to becoming a more serious artist, I need to start enforcing some deadlines (even if I don't really have any).
