Already I see some things I need to improve on.<\/p>\n<p>1. First and foremost, I have way too many props, textures and gimcracks in my sets. 2 figures in an average set, which is just a sparsely decorated corner, with maybe 60 props total [mostly books :p] and 3 lights, really slows down my compooper. I can&#8217;t pose characters quickly; there&#8217;s a lag time of several seconds. Also rendering takes too long for my tastes, meaning that it takes 60-180 seconds. I need to relegate as much as possible to the 2-D backdrops except for furniture and 2 books, 1 telephone, 1 doll, 1 mermaid, 1 stuffed animal&#8230;.the absolute essentials. I must resist the temptation to go insane with detail in the sets. They should be very simple, streamlined and highly stylized.<\/p>\n<p>2. The font in the speech bubbles looks horrid. I think it needs to be 9 point BOLD.<\/p>\n<p>That said, I&#8217;m enchanted with how the new medium is working out. I can get much tighter camera angles out of Daz than out of my own physical camera. I can also put the digital dolls in much more realistic, squinched-up postures than I could with my action figs. Plus the digital dolls&#8217; likeness is much closer to what Anneka and Will actually look like. Hooray!!!! Is it strange to say that I am most enchanted with the sagginess and wrinkliness of their faces and the elegance of their hands?<\/p>\n<div class=\"ljcut\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oddpla.net\/blog\/lhf\/1.1\/LHF1.1test-001.JPG\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just tested with posing, setting up, rendering and laying out part of LHF 1.1.
