Quote - I want to do renders that don't scream out "Done in Poser" or "Poser Render" or "Rendered Store-Bought 3D Content".  I want to produce art that makes the viewer interested in the scene and see what the characters in it are doing and how they relate to things and eachother.

But if I come across a render in the gallery of a simple posed figure standing with glazed eyes and a sword bigger that her entire arm, the only think that would interest me about it is if it looks like a photo then.  Because there's nothing else about the render that would hold my interest. 

exactly.
