Bianca's acolytes

Don't get too excited about this particular part, this crowd scene was a huge pain to work with and I don't have a whole lot to show for it. On the plus side, I'm trying to wrap up this part in as few renders as I can, which leaves more space for Bianca to grow a whole lot bigger!

Again getting good results that match perfectly is not easy to do even if you do it in low res and upscale

Redfiredog

what about downscaling the renders like make them low res then upscaling the results

Damn, they’re so tiny compared to her towering above them. Love it 👍🏼

Yeah and there are a few shots where I do that, but it tends to feel empty if you only do that. Kind of like this: https://twitter.com/nathanfielder/status/620060895209779200

Actually matching the angle and lighting to the point where it looks good is tough! Not to mention that you want continuity with the other renders where you can see the crowd.

For Bianca's pov, you might be able to just Photoshop in a stock crowd photo and have an AI try to fix the join.

You could show the density of crowd with only like 3 people if you use a pov in the crowd.

It's also possible that I'm being too hard on myself here. There are a lot of other sequences in comics that I've made that I thought were bad at the time, but most people liked, and a lot of the time I think they look fine looking back on them later. I just want to manage expectations!

Redfiredog

Yes, and I used those tricks, but even then DAZ struggles with a lot of high-quality characters I'll look into using Genesis 3 instead of Genesis 8 but I don't have a whole lot of poses or materials for them

Redfiredog

Is there a way to do it that doesn't show many people at once to make it more doable? Are there tricks for background crowds that you have seen or used elsewhere?

But this scene seems most exciting tho :(
