A pixie fairy making a flower grow out of a stone pillar with magic...that was the idea here.

Started with a Genesis 9 Female.

Added stone ruins and a tree.

Added additional vegetation.

Added the semi-completed model, after I morphed the body, changed her position, facial expression, and added clothes.

Added hair, eyebrows and eyelashes, a hair band crown, plus pixie wings

Added pixie sparkles and a flower.

Added texture, light and color.

Final render.

Tools and assets used:

Daz3D Studio, Iray and Photoshop
Genesis 9 Female Template
PreMedena Hair and Crown
Fabiana Dress
Chrysalis Wings
SYMM Hand Sparkles
Plant Flower Solo
Ruins Background
Daz3d and HDRI Lighting

In Summary:

• I start out with a model template and morph the body physically.
• I put the body into a position, change facial expressions, add makeup, dress the model, add skin texture, props, etc…
• I either can embed the character into the background or wrap the environment around the character, then add lighting and camera settings, like depth of field.
• Rendering time was about 6 hours.
• Postwork in Photoshop (adding imperfections in the skin, changing atmosphere and lighting, etc…)

Stay frosty people.
