Description
Doing homework with a friend is so much more fun than suffering alone!============
I re-rendered this pic two times, couldn't get the lighting right. It still has some flaws - the image is a bit too grainy for my tastes. But I was getting tired of working on a single pic for so long.
Created in Daz Studio. Rendered in Luxrender.

Luxrender can be a pain to light in. In blender I now make all my different light sections into their own light groups before exporting.
Also do you use Linear or Reinhard for your Tone Mapping?
I think I need to learn more about Daz and how to see if its possible to make my characters in it. heck of a lot easier than trying to model the human form in Blender. how much customizing can you do to characters in Daz? like to make Filan id clearly need blue skin and to extend the ears.

I use Linear, it's much more flexible
It is of course easier to work with characters in Daz, because you work with pre-created high-quality models. You only modify them to your liking using morphs, changing body shapes and facial features. I know for sure that there are morphs available for pointy ears, and there's also a good selection of textures for the characters - it is also not too hard to change the color of existing texture.

Ahh cool are there good tutorials out there for daz? And how is it at importing models as I make quite a bit in blender. I guess you use the reality plugin to export to luxrender?

The manual covers all the basics needed to get started. There's also a bunch of tutorials on daz3d.com that describe some specific tasks: [link]
Daz can import .obj files, so I believe you should have no trouble bringing in stuff from Blender. I haven't tried it myself, but I heard about people doing it.
To export a scene into Luxrender you will need the Reality plugin. It is still not too accurate when it comes to guessing the converted glossiness values and will need some help with setting up the materials, though.
