I have been reading thru the threads discussing Reality 3. There have been a lot of comparing it with other products and a lot of focus on the time it takes to do a render.

I don't think anyone is dead wrong and should keep their views to themselves.

Just remember that there are no two artist alike. What fits for one person may not fit another. For me Reality provides me with the right tool for what I want to do with my work.

As for comparing Reality with other products. For the price and the end results? Hands down Reality provides more bang for the buck...so to speak. You can spend a lot money on other products and end up with great results or spend less than a $100.00 and get really great results.

As for having the tools you need to learn Reality? I learned more from Reality forums and Paolo's videos than I did with learning Daz or Poser. Artist tend to keep secrets to themselves...I don't though.

I do commish work and I don't charge any extra for my work created with Reality, its up to the artist what he wants to charge for his work.

I keep saying proof is in the pudding...and I am not a well known artist or even a published one...but I do believe you can see what you can do with Reality from my gallery.
