Clicky Presets

in Art Studio
I love working on character creation and painstakingly decorating sets to reflect whatever I have in mind, but even getting the morphs just how I want them for a single character can take hours, not to mention the time spent using tools like skin builder. But sometimes I just want something quick and not so dirty, which is when I bust out the presets. I think sometimes presets can get a bad rap, or maybe that's just my guilt at how easy it is. But these can be SO beautiful! So I wanted to start a thread where other people can share their own preset heavy renders. This one had minimal changes to it, mostly just pose tweaks and a single shader change. I also did a tiny bit of postwork on it.

    One more. Also, I'm definitely not trying to say that either method is better than the other!

    I am right now working on a preset heavy project as soon as it is done I will post it here.

    BTW I love your second quicky preset render.

    I like both renders, but particularly the the second one.  It's lovely.

    I wonder if posters might include info regarding what presets they used in their pics.  That could prove useful.

    Thank you! Here is a list of products used in each. Please forgive my lack of proper links- I'm still very much a forum newbie.

    First render: The private garden by Stonemason.

    Topmodel Updo Hair and OOT Hairblending 2.0 for Genesis 3 Female(s) by OOT

    Ooh, I didn't mean to make you list everything you used.  I thought you meant presets - like certain lights and such - i.e., one click solutions.  Sorry about that!

    It's fine. The stonemason garden had a camera preset that turned out to be very useful. The hi drama lights by vyktohria have turned out to be incredibly useful to highlight eyes. Overall, I think I'm often surprised by what presets I use the most. The artists definitely deserve some props for their work. I don't mind listing them. Though, perhaps in the future (on this thread), things like pose and lights should take center stage.

    I actually like the first one better than the second, it makes me want to go relax and snooze. VERY nicely done! And welcome to the Art Studio.

    To do a link, simply highlight the words with your mouse, then go up to the link icon above your textbox and click it. Enter the URL for Link Info. Then for Target select New Window_ Blank so it opens in another window.

    The first piece I posted kept quitting before it even reached 1%! Was beyond annoying! I understand. :[
  • SaphirewildSaphirewild Posts: 6,667

    Heck I have even had a couple reach 49% and up and quit on me, talk about the air being blue green and assorted colors lol.
