Quote - Is there anyone that doesn't do postwork and still gets great renders?

 

The only postiwork I generally do is compositing several renders, since Poser throws a fit at the stuff I throw at it.  Whether or not I get good renders is entirely up to the viewer.  I'm generally happy with the results, though.

Here's where I get tagged as a postwork hater...

For me, there are two separate parts to my work.  Stuff I do for pay and stuff I do for me.  When it comes to paid work, I'll use everything at my disposal, of which Poser is usually a very small part.  

The majority of my paid work comes from a combination of Photoshop, hand drawn images and photographs.  My personal work - especially here - is in Poser.  I try to wring the very best out of Poser that I can, mainly because it's a challenge to get something out of my imagination onto the screen.  Most times I could probably paint the damn thing quicker.  Now, I could do a basic render in Poser then tart it up in Photoshop but where's the fun in that?  I'd rather learn all the tricks to get the best out of my little low end 3D app than spend most of my time painting over the picture.  I'd get bored to death.  Finally, I get satisfaction from knowing I've pushed Poser a little bit further, none of which I'd have been able to do otherwise.
