Ashley, I don;t say this with any malice but I think you're in the wrong forum. If you really feel as you say in your posts it's time to put Poser away and go play with the "big boys", Lightwave, 3DMax etc. I think you'll be happy with them.

One thing about Poser... It's a generalizing program, models and clothing premade and using a rigging system about a decade old, means it's not really capable of the type of work seen in those renders, altho I know several artist that can come very close to it,and they really should be priased for thier work.

In the case of most of those renders tho, each was made individually, meaning it is in a set pose and sculptured to be EXACTLY what you seen in the picture. Poser uses a group of General use models made to be (pretty much) an average. In addition they must move and conform to an INFINATE number of poses, shapes and sizes. And have I mentioned Poser's rigginf sytem is a DECADE out of date!

Heck, given the handicaps, I personally think anyone that can get a resonable looking render out of poser deserves MORE credit than someone using a $1000+ ablet, to sculpt a blob into a single specific shape in a program running from $20000 to $10000! Of course none of those "ARTISTS" will ever admit that.
