Description: Created as a submission for the RenderHub Graffiti Contest, this cyberpunk-inspired artwork was rendered in DAZ 3D and completed with post-processing in Photoshop. The scene captures a futuristic city alley where neon lights reflect off weathered metal, gritty textures, and high-tech enhancements. A female character in a sleek, futuristic bodysuit stands boldly in front of a heavily-armored mech symbolizing control, alliance, and power in a dystopian world. The graffiti element is featured prominently in vivid pink at the foreground with the tag "RENDERHUB", merging digital art with urban rebellion. Breakdown of Workflow: Modeling & Layout: Built and posed in DAZ 3D. Wireframe Render: Captures the structural depth and technical build of the scene. Clay Render: Showcases the lighting and material blocking without textures. Photoshop Graffiti Pass: Added the graffiti elements using brushes and blending techniques. Post-Processing: Final compositing, color grading, glow effects, reflections, and depth adjustments done in Photoshop for a cinematic finish. This render is a visual celebration of tech, creativity, and resistance core themes of urban sci-fi and graffiti culture.
