I can't figure it out... I would like to render a person in DAZ Studio and then put him into a render. But, he is sitting on the ground and I would like the grass blades to actually obscure part of his body. As you may imagine, just pasting the person in, produces completely unnatural effect - as if they were stickers put over an image.
Since a fashion for stick figures has recently sprung up, (nudge, nudge) I also include a simple drawing on what I want to achieve in my render. The question is, if there is any way in TG to actually do something like masking the objects out using other objects, with relation to distance?

What I did so far, was to produce the so called "extra output images", that give a nice alpha channel coverage of whatever object you want. This works great if your camera is more or less leveled and you can clearly define the vegetation outlines. This time however, my camera is at a slight angle and I use grass patches that make it impossible to clearly identify the "border" of grass blades...
