That's a good idea...

The implication is that what is on Carrara's site, in their ads and on the box that contains Carrara, was actually modeled in Carrara. Unfortunately, I don't think that would be an accurate assumption.

Just about anything going to press has to be tweaked and color corrected (usually in PhotoShop). That is normal production procedure regardless of how the art was created.

Something that says "made with Carrara" but was actually modeled in another 3D program (like Z-Brush) should clearly be marked as such. Rendering is great, but the modeling is the heart and birth of a project.

I'm pretty sure that the pirate they are using in their email promos for Carrara upgrades was not modeled in Carrara. I wish someone would tell me I'm wrong, because it is awesome work. (Looks like the work of Marcel Laverdet to me... perhaps I should email him and get the straight scoop about his work appearing in the Carrara promotions.)
