Capturing poses and exporting into photoshop?

williams.3386

Hey everyone! Lemme start off by sayin' this is a pretty cool community here. On my first post I got a wealth of information and as of today I feel like im clicking around in Daz like a dang pro! It's actually quite a simple program that has way more to offer than I expected. But anyways...heres my issue:

My goal is to use Daz as a perspective tool for a comic I plan on creating in Photoshop/Illustrator. I wanted to quickly pose characters as a solid reference that I could potentially trace over if needed (cheating i know!) I found that after posing the characters I could render them but it never renders at the angle I set the camera like I'd like. what am I doing wrong?

Also, if anyone has any better idea's on how a project like this could work, lemme know!!!

nevermind disregaurd this i figured it out i shall refrain from asking stupid questions from this point forwards!

There are no stupid questions -- would you mind explaining what you discovered, in case someone else has the same problem?

Mike's correct about there being no stupid questions. I'd also like to know what you discovered, but I'd also like to ask why you feel you need to "sketch over" a render you did in DS, or is it because of the camera angle not coming out the way you want?

The reason I ask is, I know of a couple of folks, not sure if there here on this forum or not, who use Poser and DS to render scenes they then put together in Photoshop (or possibly Gimp), but they use the renders themselves. I think all they add in post work are speech bubbles. If you haven't considered that, you should. I even think there's an app, or possibly a set of templates for Photoshop, that you could use to set up each page with a number of renders on it.
