I'd have to agree there isn't alot of photrealism found here . Not the end-all to look professional,but I love a nice photoreal render  -considering how impressive a nice photoreal render looks , surprising it isn't used more.

I looked page after page with not a single photoreal render- I know they arethere somewhere.. Nice if there were more, in addition to other image qualities.

There is little love for poser at most higher end websites/forums. Once you enter that group, you will likely take some heat of you use Poser, & likely work on teams with modellers, etc. . Poser users tend to be hobbyist.

I don't agree with such discrimination. I see few models as good or better than Poser/Daz models IMO- of course professionals do awesome work- but they get the most quality from their creations & could do equally awesome work with Poser models. The Poser/Daz libraries of poses, props, clothing in Poser/Daz is mind boggling. Seems saving all that trouble modelling would free users to greater things.

 

Render times for photorealism is torture- & there are so many other time consuming aspects of 3D.  I see Vray 2.0 is using gpu power now. Hope to use this soon.
