Sci-fi Scene Building: Exploring Sci-fi Art Creation in Daz Studio

Science fiction art has developed a visual language of its own as rich and varied as the genre’s narrative themes.

Digital art allows us to go far beyond the narrow range of imagery that existed over 50 years ago. Think silver space suits, ray guns, Flash Gordon fizzing spaceships, green monsters (why green?), and women in distress from said monsters.

In this tutorial workshop video, Linwelly, who has created a huge set of renders for her sci-fi online graphic novel, Taiduo, shows the best of her sci-fi art designed and rendered from Daz Studio.

She’ll be talking about these points:

• 
  
• Studying sci-fi images: what makes them sci-fi & why are they special
  
• Elements of sci-fi
  
• Understanding sci-fi scene building
  
• Scene breakdowns
  
• Means to success: the 3D toolbox – applications
  
• Renders in space – a special mission
  
• A Daz Studio scene with many options
  
• Tone mapping and settings
  
• Vendor recommendations
  
• The video includes captions and an integrated search on any word or caption spoken during the presentation.
  

There's also a community section to this workshop with various Daz Studio artists sharing their sci-fi creations and recommended assets.
