Description
Cut. That is the first principle. – The Path. Author unattributed.

When faced with overwhelming opposition, doctrine demands you act. Turn their focus inward and let their strength be your strength. Confusion and surprise can be your greatest allies. - Tactics and Doctrine, Fieiran SoM 5th edition.

***

This is a bonus scene, birthed of the description of Beatha in Barracks Escape . I hadn’t really planned for this scene (the original set is buried in the background, but this part of the set was empty when I created it). I had quite a bit of fun with this one. Getting interacting poses between characters is a challenge. I'm sure I have some of the balance wrong but rule-of-cool applies I think. I also had to gut the textures on the figures and set to get this under my 4 GB budget (I have a 6GB card, but with Daz overhead and just OS needs I find 4-4.5 is my limit for a rendered scene). What I’m really impressed with is the texture fidelity on the tactical outfit even when halved.

A serious shout out to the creator of this sweet little free script, found on the Daz forums: www.daz3d.com/forums/discussio…

Very few complex scenes make the cut without running the resizer and resize selector on at least a few of the objects.

There is at least one more scene in this set, which will be accompanied by some more storytelling. For now please enjoy this lovely shot of Beatha making her enemies regret their life choices.

If you are interested in following along, I have prepared a timeline for the storyboards here: Storyboard Timeline .
