Thanks Mark-

The NPR stuff I'm doing in Carrara is more "painterly"-  you can get some really great effects once you get a "handle" on the brushes.-- I've arrived at a similiar "post-Production" method- which involves running the brush effects, and then doing a Photo-Realistic render- and using Photoshop's History Brush to paint through- and paint OUT, the black blobs...

I've explored using UV Mapper Pro, Morphs in Poser, bringing in M3 as a native Cz2 file, tranposer Pzz file, CAR file, converting to vertix, etc... and it's not worth the trouble. Unfortunately nothing I've tried or seen does what I wanted- so I'm going with the Photoshop method as that is where I am the most comfortable anyway in the way I work on art projects.

My other Carrara NPR tests with cars, buildings, animals, etc have been really great as far as I'm concerned- the brushes are amazingly like watercolors, oils or acrylic painting effects- especially because they are actually painted in 3D- the brush strokes conform to the figures like how artists really paint- unlike all the other 2D painting filter effects.

I only wish that the Eovia software team could expand upon these NPR effects even further. I am hoping they will be supporting a file export for Piranesi in the future. However- I am able to get some "Piranesi" type renders out of the Carrara NPR feature already...
