Shall i once again cover myself in Kevlar?  Sure....... why not.

Someone's bound by nature to take offence to it, so I might as well.   

Yes, Yes I'm glad.   (not throwing a party........ but close).    Thank you Renderosity, for sparing me the 800,000,000th Daz figure someone played with the dials with in a canned pose and Koz hair.  Now I can focus my attention to the nudes where someone has gasp found dials other than for "breast size 8".

Its not worth me looking at pictures , full thumbs or crops, if I cant make an honest comment like "an expression would be nice?".

The irony of this place, does at times, start to get to me.   People check they want comments, but if its not "oh awesome!" your trolling.  Experienced artists can't make any helpful critisizms without getting bonked in the head for it or ripped apart.      We are supposed to post art that only "we like" in creating it......... yet, the entire populace posting, has the unspoken desire to be seen and heard through their art.

If you want hits (people looking at it), thats bad.....  WHY??   Isn't that the whole point, to be seen and known?  Is there something wrong with wanting to be a respected and enjoyed artist?  There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to be famous, you know.   Everyone who posts an image here, in effect and basis, thats exactly what they want.   If art was just for themselves, no one would give a hoot about what thumb it had, and would keep it tucked away on their hard drive for their own personal enjoyment.......... not share it with the public en-mass.

Jen X is correct in several aspects I'm afraid.  Other than a handful of sites, you'll get massacred out there if you post poser renders as "art".    I've seen it day in and day out where poser users get eaten alive by the masses, for accidentally calling a render a "painting" even if 90 percent of the thing is hand painted.  The "illusion" of the "make art" button.   I know where this comes from.

The absolute FLOOD of Naked v3 renders with the same face, same hair, gi-normous boobs......... that BLANK stare where someone turned their eyes to the side...... just a hair as if that encompasses all of human expression.   Same textures, same outfits and little than better default lighting.   If you don't believe me, have a look out there and you'll see what I mean, its not here, its EVERYWHERE!  (savoir faire is everywhere!!).   When these pictures are presented en-mass, it becomes a joke.

In the rest of the world of art sites:  Naked poser figure = Cant paint clothes.

Thats a crying shame, considering just yesterday in the gallery new was a b/w image of a nude, in dramatic lighting.  I nearly cried it was so beautiful, and at first, i thought it was a photograph.  I knew, as i lingered a long time on it the exceptional curves, how many hours it took the composer to singularly pose every joint down to the toes and fingers.   Hours of work.  Hours.  Placing every single light perfectly......... the balance, the harmony and the architectural symmetry.   Just...... Mind boggling.

This, this respect of the beauty of the womanly figure, I will defend.
