Thanks heaps Wasbip :)

Bravo to JoLab alright...great products.

I use the Octane 1.2 plugin for DAZ Studio, I am very fond of it :D
Your octane's parameters are great.Reflection of the character and Modular Ruins are so beautifull.  Do you change the shader's parameters in daz or octane plug?

Can you share a screen captured ?

Another thing about your tutorial in DAzstudio.com: (sorry but i can't send i private message)
www.daz3d.com/portrait-lightin…
Page 6/24 new parameter appear in the last version of daz...in the render setting/3Delight   ->Gamma Correction  (to have a good result unchek Gamma Correction).That's all.

Thanks heaps for the feedback mate. All materials are modified in Octane if required.

I can do one better than a screen shot, the wheels are turning and I will be producing a YouTube Vid that will go through my workflow.
A few steps have already been taking in preparation...a month or two required for completion.

Thanks for the heads up about the Gamma Correction, I never use it myself.
Whaoo !
I'm impatient.

Hopefully I can make the wait worthwhile ;)
A simple screen capture will be cool. I know you need time to make others beautiful creations.
If you need some help...but i don't see how,don't hesitate.

That's the problem, a simple screen capture will not be enough.
Normally I select certain materials and change them to a Gloss Materiel then set about adjusting Roughness / Bump - but that is just the start, a lot depends on your Lighting set Up too.
Its the process that's important not the settings.

I don't want to rush into this, it will be my first Video tutorial and it needs to be done properly, I still need to find the right software for screen capture.
This needs to be professional and set the precedence for future work.
software for screen capture:
I use snagit and it's very efficient (cost 50$) :

(my example in forum:www.3d-diablotine.com/viewtopi…

For video capture i use the professional software camtasia:
