Hello Experts!

I am new to Daz but not necessarily new to 3D or photography. As a designer I have a client who is is need of 3D Medical type illustrations. (see samples I attached) I realize this is a specialized service offered by a particular type of artist but form what I have seen I believe I can accomplish what I need within the DAZ app.

Attached is a sample from an artist I found through a google search and the other image is one I made myself in DAZ. I only need the body not bones, muscles... etc.

I made mine by purchasing the Anatomy 4 Bundle. Loading a male character, adjusting the muscle tones to what we wanted and coloring the figure black. Then I added lighting it as I would in the photo shoot, using spot lights with blue color to highlight the edges. Of course my image still more fine tweaks this was my first attempt after watching a week of tutorials.

My Issue is that we need many close ups of different parts of the body (e.g. Knee, Elbow, Ankle... etc). But I would need to reposition the lights each time the figure moves and the camera angle changes, just as I would in a photshoot.

Is there a way to color my figure and/or environment lighting so I do not have change all the lighting around each time and achieve this effect?

    This seems to be exactly what I need but difficult to get the settings to work like they should. Even when I use the presets I dont think it's supposed to look this way and very difficult to find any tutorials.

    Ask in the new user forum for instructions/tutorials. Unfortunately, learning DS is all trial/error. Good luck friend.
