I'm not much of an artist, but throwing in my two cents anyhow. I've used Poser a couple of times to set up a difficult pose/angle I was trying to draw. The actual drawing was done freehand. I'd actually suggest Poser5 or above, as adding a little clothing -- poorly conforming or not -- makes it easier to figure in the rough locations of hems and so forth. I believe the cloth engine could also generate the rough flow of drapery (drapery being one of my betnoirs!) And I definately agree with the caveats expressed so elegantly above. Don't try this unless you already have a decent grasp of anatomy (preferably have some life-drawing classes behind you as well). Not only do Poser characters fail to simulate the proper flow of musculature or the shifting landmarks of bone, but many of the pre-made poses are anatomically ridiculous; reversed arms, 190' twists, and a failure to conserve balance, follow an action line, or introduce a proper contraposto. One thing not noted above is that the basic lighting is also possible to find via Poser. Actually, in a recent drawing I set up an off-camera Mike strictly as a shadow-caster; I needed to see how a looming shadow fell across the scene.
