Quote -  Oddly enough, the better-made toony figures have better "soul" than some of the more realistic ones.  This is rampant throughout 3D, though, not just in the Poser gallery.  The less it has to be realistic, the easier it is to make it look, well, full of life.  Humans are just picky.  :lol:

I think that's because when it is obvious you aren't creating something real you are able to put more touches on it, like slightly larger eyes or whatever that give it more personality.  With the realistic stuff you have a smaller margin of error and more difficulty involved in getting it right.  If not it looks like a cheap knockoff where a toony character wouldn't.

WARK!
