Quote - *Anton: Cool. That face is postworked though. You can see the facial compositing/retouching especially around the  mouth, nose, and eyes. Beautiful image regardless.

ice-boy: i also think that there was some photoshop work done. if not then this is IMO the best poser render in the history of poser renders :).

Since I never do postwork (too lazy) I'm not sensitive to the shenanigans that go on, so I didn't notice what you guys did until you told me. I had to zoom the render to see the edits. I see some mismatch around the eye crinkles, the nostril/cheek join, and the mouth corners.

The neckline on the sweater was post as well to make it look ragged.  You can see (on the right side, viewer's right) where the cloth pattern gets abruptly cut off.  There's also a few places where it's blatantly obvious that smudge was used to make the ragged edge (the light coloured strips that make abrupt 90 degree turns out to points).

Not that I'm complaining about postwork at all: I usually do it myself.  What this does demonstrate, however, is the interesting psychological effect that people who do postwork have a good chance of picking it up immediately in other's work, almost instinctively.
