Posette was going on and on all day about how her contract states she''s supposed to get a close-up shot such and such percentage of the time, and that if I didn''t oblige she was going to call her lawyer. Of course I want her to be happy (and her lawyer scares me) so here''s what we came up with.
As I am striving to improve my skill levels, constructive criticism about any aspect of this image is welcomed.
Rendered in Poser 4 with minor post-work in Paint Shop Pro 6 (fixed stray pixels, enhanced contrast, and added a very slight red tint because Posette was looking too pale under the blue lights I used).
This image really started out as something completely different and more complex, and except for generally being a close-up of Posette''s face doesn''t resemble at all what I originally set out to make. However as I was fooling around it seemed that this was working out better than the original idea so I rendered it (in the Poser studio, Posette is actually on her back staring up at the ceiling here, and the green background is the floor). I had great and unexpected difficulty getting Posette''s eyelashes to look acceptable for this shot (I spent as much time fooling around with her eyelashes as I did working on every other phase of the scene put together). In this final version I''m not really happy with her eyebrow areas either, but attempting to fix it post-render made it look even worse.
