Looks like Amanda Seyfried
Comparison I found here
http://www.tokkoro.com/picsup/2830428-women-blonde-amanda-seyfried-closeup-portrait___people-wallpapers.jpgOh let me tell you about that site and synfulmindz. If it sees you coming from a site that pirates his stuff or however he gathers IP's, he will block you from looking at the site. You will get a nice little message at the top about stealing his stuff. There is no membership required to view any of the items, but if you are redirected and not able to view, he has an IP redirection listed for your IP. I found this out a long while ago.
And thanks to @norbertz for the hint for Sweet Candy
Okay, Okay, Okay.....you can quit searching now...I found it. A little search on his site led me to this...
https://www.synfulmindz.com/catalog/sweet-candy-genesis-3v7-p-1070.html.Your welcome, yes 1000 internets for me....ra ra ra, fireworks shoot in the air, hearts are a flutter.
I wouldn't give it that long, after a few seconds it will be in the matrix, sucked in by the vile scum of the webs looking to make a quick buck.
@apollo To answer your question, 3Delight is still in production, but less by Daz itself. The one included in Daz is over 2 to 3 years old. The new shader wowie is working on will include Kettu's script for scripted 3delight rendering, which makes use of more stuff that 3delight can use than by the crippled 3delight Daz has now.
One reason why Daz chose iray was for the majority of the users want just a 1-click solution to render without any actual work or understanding of the program itself. It caters to that one specific demographic. They do not want to fiddle with everything such as settings or anything that requires mental thought.
3Delight could be SO much more, but Daz crippled a majority of what the renderer is capable of. It has SO much more potential. You look at Maya's 3Delight, it has emission that is just like iray, make an object light up, give off light blah blah blah. Where is it for Daz? They could care less. They have basically given up on 3Delight as far as I can see. They have found their 1-click solution, and people will pay for it. Just like their models, sex sells, make a quick buck. Make something else sexier, make another quick buck, over and over and over.
But for the people that use 3Delight, it can do most anything iray can if you tweak everything. If you use the settings out of the box, you will get crapped on. Nothing that is default settings is worth using. If you are content with just meh, then default is for you, otherwise learn more about it, embrace it, and 3delight can produce results just like iray or better.
I would also suggest reading Kettu's Subsurface guide for 3delight as well:
http://www.sharecg.com/v/76566/related/3/PDF-Tutorial/Subsurface-Scattering-in-3Delight-for-DSAlso, I suggest
https://zonegfx.com/lumina-materials-library/. This is also made by wowie from Daz. It is ubersurface2 presets for glass, metal, painted metal. I like them, they are my go to for metals and glass. Also if you have trouble getting realistic glass or metal, You will need a skydome if you have problems, you have to have something to reflect.Also, wowie will be coming out with a new shader for 3delight here real soon, you can see some examples in this thread. It is called aweSurface and has settings like iray does, also I think it also has where like a plane can have 2 different diffuse textures, like one on the front and different on the back.
Yes I have used IBL Master. I like it, it is faster than the other lights. And if anyone hasn't "Fixed" AOA's lights to render faster, there is an article by Kettu that fixes the problem at : https://mustakettu85.wordpress.com/2016/09/10/shader-mixer-applied-crash-course-pt-1/
You use that on all the shader that does not have opacity, such as skin mouth or whatever. You just save it as shader preset, and then click on all surfaces you want with the fixed shader and click on that shader and it will apply the fixed shader, you will see a difference.
I had this happen before, but I had to alter the title for it to show up, because it never will. Your request should show up right after you post it. Thats What I had to to do for it to show up.
One way to load it is https://zonegfx.com/ibl-master-for-daz-studio/ works well with hdri, for iray and 3delight, follow the instructions, you are good to go.
