The 10th image for the 2023 Halloween Countdown
The 10th prompt, "Shadow" could be anything. I knew I wanted something shadowy and located the assets through my normal method of checking what is out there on the Daz store. I find this much faster than looking through my library. If they ever make a keyword search for the library, maybe that would work, but for now, I believe it is only searchable by the asset name.
I found the asset SY Shadow for Genesis 8 and 8.1, by Sickleyield and thought I'd give that a shot. I remember I wanted a key character who was perhaps controlling these shadow figures, thus the woman was introduced and it did add more to the image - probably because then there was something human in it even if sinister.
Once the camera and lighting was in place, then I tested in Iray preview.
That really brought it to life and let me know it was working. Then off to the final render.
And finally, the touch of magic in Photoshop and Lightroom before posting to Instagram.
I think she might be sending those guys after us, so we better bail...
