Poser is to the 3-D artist as the camera is to a professional photographer! Does that mean during the 10 years I spent as a professional photographer I never created one piece of art? My photographs were published in magazines, on posters, on T-shirts, and in concert programs. I reject your thought process and while I don't mean to be rude because you do have the right ro ask and think what you want, I find your argument wholly without merit. I also feel somewhat insulted at the notion that composition does not create art, to me composition is the cornerstone of art. Without composition you have only factual representation of a subject, there's no context to factual representation so there is no art. Hence the name Com--Pose--ition, I don't believe you have to create an object from nothing in order to be an artist, to me that's a modeler. Are some models artwork, yes, just as those who POSE the models and RENDER a photograph of that com-POSE-ition is an artist as well. Enough said, I hope!
