Poolside Selfie

3D Render by JADICUS

There were already plenty of swimsuits in this challenge... but what's one more? emote

I couldn't resist.

No... that's not a photo. emote

And no... she's not a real person either. If you thought otherwise, then I guess I achieved exactly what I set out to do.

This piece was an exercise in chasing realism. My goal was to capture the feeling of a casual vacation selfie taken by the pool. Inspired by the polished, glamorous look often seen on Instagram, I focused on wide-angle smartphone perspective, natural lighting, skin realism, and believable materials to make it feel more like a photograph than a 3D render.

Created entirely in DAZ Studio without the use of generative AI. This render evolved over several days through countless refinements and re-renders until it finally matched the look I had in mind.

It was a fun break from my usual sci-fi work. Hope you enjoy it!
