Description

They were waiting for her around the corner of the building that led to the White Lily.

It was a bar she owned and was named after her own name. Torrential rain would have helped if the ones after her were human, but to borgs... it hindered herself.

Actually I have not written the story yet. Probably will concentrate on it when I am done with Chapter 2 of Robot City.

I would like to thank Stunning Jelly Fish for the White Lily digital artwork plastered on the wall. (my daughter)

Hope you all enjoy the Action Scene and if you look closely you will see lots of gems in the pict.

Work was done in Daz Studio Pro and Rendered in I-Ray

Postwork for all the rain-droplets and spatter were done using Ron's brushes deviney , (Get them here - www.daz3d.com/deviney )

The Postwork for AMBUSHHi there,I had been meaning to do a Postwork Journal for some time, and as always... something would always get in the way. So I decided that I should do one on the latest work submitted.As with any works I do... it starts out with the characters in my story and what kind of action and scene that she or he would be in. Here I already had a character's basic background and name, but I needed a character to play her. I chose... Chiyo by Raiya as my base model which I converted from Gen3 model. Base skin texture used was from... Lyra by BluejaunteGYN-02 by @DAVEYABBO was an excellent choice coz I had just bought that model and was itchin to use...and for the last one I used another of his... GYN-01.The scene was set in Stonemason's Urban Future 05... I mean comeon! Stonemason is one of my favourite model maker of scenes. Mr Mason or is that Ms Mason? Not too sure but sure love the meticulous effort made for every cityscape put out.Poses and render techniques I think everyone has their own way of doing it as well as choices of robes and other props/products/models used so I will not dwell too much on them.Only one thing I will say is that I normally take a long time to see how I find the lighting or camera angles by doing quick renders first. Through initial process of elimination; the final angle will undergo longer renders to see how it turned out. If I don't like it... it is back to making minor changes either in the lighting or camera angle generally. Rarely do I go full cast change...For this scene, I did foreground render and background render separately. The reason for this choice was because of what I intended to do for the scene and how I wanted to manipulate some of the renders.This is the Raw Background scene just after render (IRAY in Daz Studio Pro 4.12)In Photoshop using layers of Shadows n Highlight followed by Vignette effect... The effect enhanced the look of the Background.Adding a self-made picture always personalises your scene... but sometimes it can also work with the story of the character. So, I requested (instagram:stunning_jellyfish) - to help paint a White Lily for me... a water color effect of the lily.As the name of the Assassin is the White Lily... I thought it added a nice touch.Next, I added Ron's rain effects for the background...And then again enhanced the effect.It was now time to work on the foreground...I gave the raw render a Path blur effect, then reduced the effect with mask. This allowed details to show through and thereby allowing the scene to look dynamic. I took the liberty of adding the Daz Studio logo to signify it was made in Daz Studio... but weathered the effect to not look too blatant.Notice also the pose of the props were done in order to give that feel of dynamism... I hope I managed to portray it in my finished work??? lol! PLEASE AGREE! ;)NOW was where I enjoy dabbling with PS when dealing with post-work!White Lily has stabbed her with her right hand and blocked the GYN-02's blade attack with the left hand. Lily's left hand has also pumped several rounds to its head. I wanted to show that effect. So I worked on the Helm first.I added black line and white then used Nudge to blend the effect.At the same time added Ron's scratches and gave the effect of plate looking worn.Then it was time to show the effects of firing a gun in close quarters as imagined by me.Layers of debris bit, sparks and firing light, gun-smoke did the trick.Adding to this, I followed up with blood spatter, bullet shells and smoke!This same scene with a background...You see the beautiful flying bullet shells that were not props, but using Ron's brushes.And with that, all that remained now was to add Rain to the foreground and give the effect as though they are fighting in the rain! I added all those effect of water splashing on the surface as well as water running down their legs; steam effect off the streets... and then,the Final composition.Thank you for visiting and reading my journal.Thank @deviney for all his wonderful brushes. (U can get it here https://www.daz3d.com/deviney )I sincerely hope that my style of work helps make you do one with your own style mixed to it and happy Post Work!Take Care - SVF my friend.Yaz

Thank you
