You could try this item from DAZ - http://www.daz3d.com/baroque-grandeur-service-set
Or there are some free props on Share CG that might work. You have to register.
Tinkering never ends.
The only thing I noticed was that the lighting on the main female character seems to be a bit stronger on her torso than on her face. It's a minor thing, but the viewer's eyes tend to be drawn towards the light.
In terms of the wine glasses, there are many ways to approach that...definitely the easiest would be to load glasses that are already set up to look as if they contain wine. But if you'd rather work with the glasses you have, you could add wine in postwork, or insert some sort of prop into the glasses to represent wine...
@Kismet - Thx for the link.
@Scott - After reading your comment and taking a closer look at it, I agree my eye is drawn to the man and her belly. I will try to improve on that.
as for the wine in the glasses - I made a small cylinder primitive and applied a liquid texture. The glasses are kind of a crystal , so not totally see thru, it looks alright.
I will repost with the wine in glasses and the lighting change.
Thx again to you all.
I got wine in the glasses now. I adjusted the lighting to bring out her face a bit more. I will of course make the final render 800X450.
I think I am finished. Again thank you to all of you for your suggestions and help. I am new to this whole forum thing.
I find the feedback I get invaluable. Someone always points out something I didn't see or if I have a problem has a helpful suggestion.
Do keep in mind though that the final say is yours. It is your render telling your story.
Nicely done.
Thank you Kismet
This is my attempt so far but I think something is a bit off about it and I just can't quite place it.
Any constructive criticism is welcomed
Perhaps you could put an invisible object somewhere in front of them and use the "point at" feature for each of their eyes to make it look like they are not just blankly staring into space.
Just a little reminder if you haven't put your entry in the contest entry thread, please don't forget to do so as the contest is winding to an end (there's exactly a week left) :)
I think it may be the eyes again. I would say maybe have her eyes looking down (sad) or upward (more hopeful) or completely closed even possibly to help add to whatever feeling you are going for (it always amazes me just how much eye position can change the mood of an image :))
I put the pink haired girl a bit closer, and added a slight bounce light.
Here is the latest version.
Title: New Year's Get Together
DAZ 4.6 Pro Beta
whoha, lovely renders this month ! great job all of you :)
Personally I have had less time than usual, but I finally got time to put together something that resembles my new year celebration *smiles lightly* Putting it in here since I am sure it is far from perfect, and there is still a couple of days left :)
Lonesome New Year
Lovely render Carola.
Not how I spent New Year this year!
"A New Year for two lonely people". DS 4.6.
I would have to create a render of me asleep in bed to show how I've spent the last few New Year's. ;-)
Don't forget to put your final images in the contest submission threads everyone :) Only 5 more days to get your entries in! :)
