I hate to intrude, but I like how you’re showing us rookies “before & after” shots. "A Passing Fancy" would take hours in CS3 if even possible. (Obviously I can't render quite that good yet! : 0 ! )
If you don’t mind sharing, I'm thinking Photoshop CS3 might finally be out of date for brushes and filters. For post work, you're using “CC” out of the box, or also Adobe or Filter Forge add-ons?
If you don’t care to answer (that’s a trade secret Bruce!) No biggie! : )
Anyway, best wishes on your work. Unless mistaken, remember seeing some of your stuff at New User Challenge. That's wasn't so long ago was it? Picked it up quickly! : )

Hey Bruce, feel free to intrude anytime! No trade secrets, I don't mind sharing at all. I do use the full photoshop CC. I'm going to say that 80% of what I do is inside of photoshop and the rest I use the NIK collection and occasionally filter forge. I use a lot of texture overlays (just textures you can get as free resources and then I use different modes and opacity to blend it all together.) If you have modes available in CS3 you can do most of what I do. The filters I use are just shortcuts mostly, many of them can be done manually inside of photoshop. I just don't have time to do it that way lol.
And yes, its been just a bit over 3 years since I started with Daz Studio, and about 2 years since I started putting it all together in photoshop. Although in all fairness I did have a little bit of experience in photoshop before I started using daz. I chose not to use photoshop with any of my renders for the first year, because I know myself well enough to know that its far too easy to just say, I'll fix it in photoshop, and I really wanted to have a good grasp of at least the basics in daz first.
Krys by Maricus. As always, a stunning character.
This is a good example of how you can change the lighting in photoshop if you decide its not working after you've waited 3 hours for a render to finish. You can always mask out bits of it as well which is what I did here. I did all of my color corrections and then I masked of the parts that I wanted th blue tones to come through. Remember, masking a non destructive way of removing things from the scene and is something I use 99% of the time.
You are so freaking talented Sonja!
I wish I was half as good as you!
Thank you Sapphire, but a lot of it is just lots and lots of practice, and a lot of time spent on tutorials and you tube videos.
Personal art. I've been wanting to do something with AM's Chimpazee for awhile now. This one has been floating around my head for awhile. This is using the Catalyzer, which works much better on my machines than trying to import LAMH hair fibers. Gallery Link
Nove chimps, lovely warm lighting!
Wow ! Sonja, your images are gorgeous. I would actually print/frame a few, like Anastasia. Going to get a Whatburger, Lol ! will return to view your section, since I was away for nearly a year, a lot of images to view.
Thank you! If you would like one without the Sympatico watermark I would be happy to send you a copy.
Hi Sonja, that would be fabulous. Image would have to be large for print shop, 16x20. Guess I could print a smaller one on home printer
You could keep the logo friend, logo looks cool to.
I will get that over to you as soon as I get chance in the next couple of days. I usually do these at a fairly large size. but will double check.
