Taking a walk through the woods yesterday evening, by chance I met this
young lady, and instantly felt inspired to portray her. This is just a
first sketch, and doesn't do her beauty any justice, so stand by for more.
Figure is based on DAZ's Genesis model, using a blend of Young Teens 5
Julie and an adult character plus some modifications of my own; hair
(including hairband) is the gorgeous Udane Hair, and clothing is from
the Elven Warrior set.
Skin and eyes are based on the Victoria 5 Bree texture resources, which
all plugged in neatly into the framework I have been developing for
poser figure textures, indicating that I'm doing the right thing there.
The other textures were auto-converted by PoseRay, which of course also
did tne geometry conversion.
The hair still needs some work (DAZ studio renders indicate that there's
a hell lot of more potential in the texture, and it also deserves some
additional subdividing), as do the clothes textures (which aren't any
better in DAZ studio, but I'm sure I can improve on it using POV-Ray
procedural textures ;-)); I also plan to further modify her iris
texture, and then of course she'll feel more at home in the woods than
in featureless grassy plains.
Subsurface scattering would probably not be necessary for a human
character, but being a half-elf I might want her skin to have some
surrealistic translucency, so I'll give that a try.

Nice. Are you going for the Irish princess look? Isolde, maybe?

Looking very good indeed. Reminds me that I need to try Genesis in Poser
as I have the DSON importer. My todo list is getting pretty long.

No, not a princess. Just the daughter of someone wealthy enough that she
doesn't need to do hard work, and has enough spare time to tend her long
hair and occasionally do a bit of fine stitching work like that headband
of hers (at least I think she made it herself).
But the moment I saw her lovely face framed by that gorgeous red hair I
knew she'd have to wear green clothes from head to toe. She loves green,
you know.

It is a very Irish look, especially with the green livery.
Does/will your beauty have very pale skin?

I don't think so. She's not a pureblood elf, and a very healthy girl, so
except for an uncommon translucency there'll be nothing special about
her complexion.

Well, I thought /this/ one was an exceptionally beautiful image (if it
wasn't for the artifacts in her face; don't blame it on POV-Ray, this
one was rendered using DAZ Studio's built-in renderer) - but... ah well,
just stay by for the render I'm currently running in POV-Ray; from what
I'm seeing in the preview window I guess it /might/ be worth the wait...

Yeah, this one looks amazing, but is even better if I hide her eyes with
my finger... then, suddenly, the skin looks almost real, specially her
lips.

Indeed a very fine image. I know that there are very interesting women in the
woods (more or less) close to your town. I married one of them.

Speaking of eyes: While that render I mentioned before is still running,
I've conjured up a procedural iris texture that will feature in a later
render.

Thanks. I was actually quite surprised how easy it was to achieve.
> Care to share it?
Here it is; note that it is a UV-mapped texture designed to fit the DAZ
Genesis eyes; for other models, the main material (M_Iris) may need some
tweaking. Also note that the DAZ Genesis model has separate geometry for
the iris and the cornea; if this is not the case for your model, you
will also need to tweak the finish.
(Ah, and last not least, the slight "cat's pupil" effect in the image I
posted is in the geometry, not the material.)

That's great, thanks a lot!
I shall try that with the Poser models. They have separate irises too.

Not as easy as I thought (naively) ;-)
This is the best I can do presently using Poser's Simon, by commenting out:
[0.2 P_Iris_Shadowed]
in the material, otherwise the iris becomes totally black. Also, the
texture is not right even then.
This probably has to do with /how/ the iris is uv_mapped in the first
place. I shall have to go back to the figure and work upwards to see
where I need to tweak things.

For testing purposes, I used a fill-in light to lessen the shadows
around the eyes in the preceding image.
To do justice to the model /and/ to Ive's excellent skin texture macro,
this is the image /without/ the fill-in.

The current DAZ people use a UV mapping scheme for the eye textures that
has the irises in the bottom left and bottom right quadrant (each one
almost filling the quadrant entirely), while the sclerae separately
occupy the top left and top right quadrant.
The Poser people (at least G2) instead use a scheme where the irises sit
amid the sclerae in the left and right half of the texture; thus the
irises are at a totally different place, and also a lot smaller.
This might help to get you started:
-----------------------------------------
#declare M_Iris = material {
texture {
pigment {
uv_mapping
spherical
pigment_map {
[0.2 P_Iris_Shadowed]
[0.3 P_Iris_A ]
[0.4 P_Iris_A ]
[0.5 P_Iris_B ]
[0.6 P_Iris_B ]
[0.65 P_Iris_Shadowed]
}
scale 0.5 // <-- each copy of the iris is smaller
translate <1,2,0> // <-- iris centers are at different y
warp { repeat 2*x }
scale 0.25
}
finish { ambient 0 diffuse albedo 0.6 specular albedo 0 emission 0 }
}
}

Thanks Christoph, I think I got it now with the following changes:
//--------------------------------------
#declare M_Iris =
material {
texture {
pigment {
uv_mapping
spherical
pigment_map {
[0.1 P_Iris_Shadowed]
[0.2 P_Iris_A ]
[0.4 P_Iris_A ]
[0.5 P_Iris_B ]
[0.6 P_Iris_B ]
[0.65 P_Iris_Shadowed]
}
scale 0.37
translate <0.99, 2.075, 0>
warp { repeat 2*x }
scale 0.25
}
finish { ambient 0 diffuse albedo 0.6 specular albedo 0 emission 0 }
}
}
//--------------------------------------
While this works for SimonG2, tweaking may be probably be necessary for
the other figures.
Note that a brownish line around the iris may appear. This comes from
the sclera map and shows a little part of the original iris as the iris
mesh does not cover exactly the image (or vice versa). This can
relatively well be solved by scaling down and translating a tiny bit the
pigment in the sclera material. This is done in the present image.

The iris been distinct from the cornea surely play an important role in
the beleivability.

Two more versions. I'm not sure which lighting setup I like better - but
I do know that I'd really love to have MCPov's "render until I'm ok with
the noise" mode of operation right now... and/or faster SSLT, for that
matter.

I would prefer the first (0925) maybe with a tiny bit more fill-in on
the right. The other one is a bit too flat to me. Also, I am not too
sure about the dof in that case. Too extreme for my taste.

Are you kidding?
To me, skin is the only thing that really *needs* subsurface scattering,
especially on the face, which is one of the targets the human eye has been most
used and adjusted to scrutinize on earth under various lighting conditions.
Very nice procedural iris, considering it is an even more demanding challenge in
that respect. Do you mind if I use this Iris texture for the sample texture on
the blender to POV exporter WIKI? or if I have to adapt it as a basis for that.
Faster SSS would be more than awsome, actually a grail for attracting animation
focused users along with motion blur.

Surprisingly enough, the first one uses a HDR light probe of an overcast
sky (albeit in a park with some trees around, so there is /some/
uniformity to the illumination), while the latter one uses a light probe
of a clear sky. (I suspect the creator of the probe didn't include a
shot with a short enough exposure time to capture the true brightness of
the sun; I'll try again with an added light.)

I guess you're right. Then again, the acceptable dof might also depend
on how detailed the background is.

It is mostly the out-of-focus part of the figure itself that I question.
With a more detailed background, I would prefer the figure to be sharp
front to back, or maybe only a little out of focus in the farthest part.

Yes, I love this one. To answer your second message, the 'greenish'
illumination has a real function here I believe. It enhances the red hear.
As for me, this would be final.

It’s one of those images that are worth looking at, as you would look
deeply into a painting.
The hair bothers me but she is Elvin so she doesn’t follow the rules. ;-)
The eyebrows need reddened to match hair, though.

Hm... what's it about the hair that bothers you?

There's a technical problem there: The eyebrows are part of the skin
texture.

I don't think it does. After all, the hair is illuminated by the same
greenish light source as her skin.
> As for me, this would be final.
Not for me. There's the clothes that need some detail in their textures;
the hair that needs subdividing; the eyes that need reflection (I
accidently rendered this image with the eye reflection turned off); and
the background that still waits for some plants to grow.

Where I'm from, there are a larger proportion of red heads than anywhere
else. About 10% of my school class had read hair and about another 10%,
what is described as red hair, elsewhere. The mix of colours looks
unnatural to me. A mix of blond, nut brown and red is too many types.
I've known folk with the same carrot colour in some of the strands and
some with the deep red. But the colour seams to be homogeneous AFAICR.
It would mean changing the colour map which isn't difficult. But I'm
sure you know that.
That is beside the point. She is your fantasy woman so you can give her
what ever hair she likes.

In poser it is easy to select a copy of the image map that has been
modified. And it is obvious where the eyebrows are to paint. I keep the
image open in my image editor, then paint, save then render in poser to
see the effect.

Well, I don't know. Somehow, the hair stands out remarkably by its
contrast with the overall more greenish tones around.

<grin> of course.
Still, I think that not too much background interference is better.

Don't worry - it'll be extremely out of focus.

No need to bother Poser with that (or DAZ studio for that matter -
that's what I use); I can just as easily pull in the texture from
POV-Ray. Actually more easily, because I've already done some tweaking
to the material (mainly finish parameters).
