The Dark Lord of the Sith

I created a similar scene to this way back in 2018. I recently overhauled the Darth Vader armor I had with all new Superfly materials in the new Poser 13 just to see if I could. Once I did create an awesome new shader setup for Vader’s armor, I had to come up with something to do with it. I kept been trying to think of a new scene but kept coming up empty, creatively speaking. I then remembered that scene I had created back in 2018 and decided to create a brand-new redux of it using all my new toys. This version is far more dramatic, and I think it just looks better overall. 

The lighting is a mix of emission shaders on various parts of the set and his lightsaber plus a global HDRI. I overhauled every single material for the setting and Vader with new Superfly materials for Poser 13. In postwork, I enhanced the red glow of his lightsaber to look more like the movies and added some steam to the bottom of the scene. I then played around with the colors, contrast, and such in Lightroom until I created what you see here.
