Description
A lone guard stands at the checkpoint in the early morning fog.

Rendered in Daz Studio 4.8 Pro using the Iray render engine.
Minimal postwork in Photoshop, for contrast only.

For the low light & atmospheric scenes I've had trouble with grainy images like everyone else, but the Iray 3D engine's ability to render atmospheric fog worked perfectly here.
I cranked up the convergence setting to 96% and the render quality to 1.1, then went to bed.

Much thanks to Raw Art 3D for his easy-to-use fog camera which saves so much time, easier than creating your own boxes and materials:

Overall, this one was relatively easy to set up for once.
The environment is just default untouched Iray "Dome and Scene" lighting without even setting anything special (e.g., no HDRI image).
Remapped materials to Iray for the most part, adding mesh lighting onto the Futucar lights, I was very pleased with the effect.
I was a bit worried from the vendor promos that the car would look too plastic, but I love how it looks here.
Maybe the fog actually helped.
