Whew.. that was a lot of reading... and thanks for all the cool comments about my "style"
I have to confess... I do postwork, I take my rendered poser image into PS, lighten it a bit with the 'ImageAdjustmentCurves"... then I remove half the noise from the image using a filter called "neat Image"... and then increased canvas size usually with white or black as the colour. make thumbnail, save both images and post. See and you thought it was all done in poser... got ya!
In so far as getting the face and pose right... pure luck.... but... use good reflective eyes... point them at the camera, and move that mouth around with a puker lips (center and wide)... there really is nothing special that Poser doesn't already provide.
Lighting is based on a good IBL set... yeah, I've changed a few parameters here and there... but after 5-6 years doing this stuff, i should have learnt something eh... nope... still playing... still experimenting.
And... right now... I prefer to do figure images... I do a lot of promotional work for merchants as you all well know... some good... some really crappy... just goes to show I don't know everything. I do love playing with this Poser game though, just don't seem to be able to get a good score everytime.
And there is definately no painting on my images... honestly... I really wouldn't know where to begin painting hair or clothes or the like. Like morphs on a figure, I just spin dials on hair figures and find something I like.
Now I better bugger off and work on another image... yeah... I know... same old, same old... but I like them.
