Its not like point and click.  I recommend bagginsBill's P8 Soft Studio lighting sample scene...drop in V4 and render.  Then start analyzing it all.  You'll be amazed at how nice it is out of the box.  If you have a good skin texture, hit it with EZSkin before render as well.

It's as close to a "Make Art" button as you will get.  Then read, render, read, render, and repeat many, many times.

Poser, DS, Carrara, Lux, Blender, Octane, etc...in the hands of a master, they all can produce really "real" results.  :)
