Description Ellie had not had many friends in her 21 or so years of life; almost all of them had been her clone-sisters. The ones she'd grown up alongside, trained with to fight and to kill. Other people were generally regarded with suspicion or contempt. But this girl opposite her had-somehow-earned her trust as they spoke and walked around the base.

She'd been afraid of Ellie, who could sense it- she was used to that. But Red had gained confidence, and was easy to listen to, and a good listener. They wound up at an observation deck, where the air was clean and clear, and the view out to Jupiter was spectacular. It was Red's favourite place, one that she and her friend had discovered by accident when they were younger.

For a moment Ellie forgot about the AI, the mission she'd been given, and almost felt at peace.
"Your name's not really Ellie, is it?", asked Red. "Well, no. Your name's not really Red, is it?", said Ellie. And so they told one another their names. And both sounded strange, from lack of use, from deep unfamiliarity.

Daz 4.10 with iRay. An hour or so's render with Stonemason's excellent set. Used the built-in lights with a little extra either side of each figure for fill light. There's actually a tiny bit of atmos, but so little it's barely noticeable. Red's a G2F figure, Ellie's a G3F body with a Poser model head, re-shaded for Daz and iRay.

Can you tell me what model you use for Ellie?

Yeah! It this one:

It's not very easy to work with, and isn't really a proper Daz model...but it sorta works, as long as I can hide the neck-body join.

Thanks.Β  I take it that you can't just add her head to a G3 or G2 character?

Well, that's what I'm doing, hiding everything but her head, and parenting that to a G3 body.Β

I mean the model isn't G3 or G2 (or G anything) and can't be clothed as normal?

sohighlydubious In reply to TheRogueStudio [2018-07-22 12:46:27 +0000 UTC]

That's right. The body's rigged and everything, and can be posed (I think it's a V4 or g1/2 for rigging) but it's body isΒ its clothes.

I second that bit about the kiss! Given what these girls have been through and how they will likely end it would be almost magical to see them have that moment...

a beautiful piece, love. Intensely moving and elegantly executed

Nah it's OK- it's a moment that's definitely coming up...and I think they're already at that "Oh fuck! I'm falling for this girl" stage...but Ellie's damaged goods and Red is so young and inexperienced that they're both kinda held back. And anticipation is as delicious as denoument, non? Almost, anyhow!

(I'm still confused if the two are in one scene, because the silver-suited is RED and the red-suited is Ellie.... )

Anyway... it's lovely to know they have each other in that kind of nightmarish world they are living in!

So nice to see Ellie regaining trust -- even if it's small. Didn't know this was part of Red's repertoire, but it makes her so much more three-dimensional as a person. The gaze between the two speaks volumes. Really like how much Ellie and Red are in the foreground and while the background isn't washed or significantly defocused, it all falls away. Β
