A BACKSTORY FOR THIS IMAGE AND CHARACTERS.

These long time friends grew up on neighboring farms, their bond forged in the fires of youthful adventures and unyielding loyalty.
The female, Audra, known for her loud, confident demeanor and unparalleled mastery of the Samurai swords, was the warrior every foe feared. Her skills, honed through years of disciplined training, were complemented by her fierce spirit and unwavering determination. From an early age, she embraced the way of the sword, finding a sense of purpose and identity in the ancient art.
Her counterpart, Jaxon, was the slick and suave embodiment of resilience and ingenuity. Dubbed the "James Bond of the Zombie Hunter universe," his charm and tactical brilliance were unmatched. As children, he often led their escapades, guiding them through make-believe missions and daring rescues. His knack for strategy and resourcefulness set him apart, and his ability to navigate even the most perilous situations made him a legend among their peers...a master tactician, always one step ahead of danger.
Time, however, has a way of charting its own course. Their paths eventually diverged, but destiny had other plans. As the world plunged into the chaos of a zombie apocalypse, the old friends were thrust together once more. The familiar landscapes of their youth were now overrun with the undead, and their once-idyllic home became a battleground.
In these dark times, Audra and Jaxon reunited with a shared purpose: to combat the encroaching horror and protect what remained of their world. Their combined skills, honed over years of separate adventures, proved to be a formidable force against the relentless waves of zombies.
Together, they forged a new chapter in their story, one marked by resilience, redemption, and the unbreakable bond of friendship. The world may have changed, but their friendship remained as unyielding as ever, a light in the darkness of the new world.

This scene is in Jaxon's Weapons Warehouse, where he and Audra playfully spar with each other knowing the ensuing Zombie battle may be their last.

The Second screenshot is the edited and cropped version used for the Main image.

The Third screenshot shows the Photoshop / Daz3D workflow set up with both programs open at the same time to get the Pose / lighting on the Character before proceeding to final render. I also use the low res 'Print Screen' image of the character to place in the scene to check pose / lighting etc....this procedure was done with all figures.

The FOURTH image is the full 'Triple Screen' 5760x1080 screenshot as it was taken within BeamNG.....Triple Screen monitors on my Sim Rig

Still a beginner with more practice needed and throughly enjoying this experience.

Thanks for viewing
