Blatant misrepresentation. I surprised that no one has called them on it yet. I don't know what they do in France but here in the United States it is defiantly against the law. Several companies have been successfully sued for just this type of misrepresentation. I can just see Eovia in court... "And why did you use the Zbrush and Lightwave models in your Carrara promotion material and not state that it really wasn't your models at all?" "Ahh, sir. We were just, ahh, using the models to show our rendering ability with Carrara." "Then why didn't you just put one of your own models in to render if all you were doing was to show your rendering ability?" Silence falls on the courtroom THE TRUTH The answer to this is obvious. Because the other programs produce far superior models over what we have been able to produce using Carrara and nothing looks better rendered than a greatly produced model. Some will say that given enough time and talent the same caliber of models produced in Lightwave or Zbrush can be produced in Carrara and Eovia was just "saving time" by using the Lightwave and Zbrush models. The story is the same old one I'm sure everyone has heard at one time or another. If you could of, you would of, but you didn't, because you can't!
