Hi folks, Saying that nudity is not art is a bit of a harsh statement, but I can see its validity in this case. It is true that many renders do not make use of naked figures in a very creative way - in fact, many of them are purely gratuitous. The deplorable downside of this is that I usually discover only one artistic nude on average per day, as I browse the galleries. Still, many of us strive to make nudity look artistic and beautiful. There are specific techniques, light effects, points of view and poses that allow people to render superb pictures, not to mention postwork tweaking. In short, there are some eggs that we should keep out of the basket. ;) Cheers, Antonio (a.k.a. Amalthea)
