poser 5's rendering engine is actually quite good (if slow)

 

here's a little room i made...original render was at 1600 x 1200 about a year and a half ago.  probably nine lights if i remember correctly.  all textures are photographic. this image took about not quite 10 minutes if i remember correctly because of the curtains.  they are simply poser cloth planes with bits of it stitched together by export and reimported, resting on the curtain rod and clothified.  i used a trick to push the pieces together to get the folds.  i did not make the chairs or the poser box, but everything else.  many mistakes on this but i learned a lot.

 

i love the postwork momodot.
