The Sketch feature was actually the primary reason I purchased Poser many years ago. I've had the program since it was on Windows, which was Ver 2 I think. But Ver 3 was when the real sketch stuff started showing up when they started showing those weird mechanical characters in sketch mode as a Poser promo. Those characters still come with Poser, I think. Anyway, the Sketch Render feature REALLY takes some time to learn, as the documentation on it is almost ZERO. It has taken me a few years, off and on, to really get a handle on what it does and can do. Frankly, it is a work of GENIUS in my opinion. They are some of the best art painting filters EVER! It goes back to when the Fractal Design folks were working on ideas like Painter 3D, which also was a great idea never quite completed well. Ironically, the Sketch Render feature was once considered the PRIMARY direction and use of the early Poser. Poser was meant to be a studio artist's model. That's also why you have that old goofy stick-figure guy that almost nobody ever uses. But Poser marketing folks quickly learned that NAKED BABES was the hot ticket to selling Poser, and that has become its primary market direction. Because most people have never quite understood or gotten the hang of the sketch render features, Poser 4 and P5 have NEVER corrected some of the technical problems with Sketch Renders, primarily that that can't render larger than your monitor desktop setting. However there are several tricks around that. I think I may have been the first person to inform Metacreations tech support about a work-around, which they usually passed on to those few others that actually had an interest in doing sketch renders. But the programming talent- primarily one or two people with Painter-Fractal Design, all left with the pending desolution of Metacreations, and nobody has ever picked up the ball since. Too, bad, as I still think sketch renders are awesome and could be made into at least a new powerful plug-in for... DAZ STUDIO???
