Thanks for the replies guys (and gals). you've given me a lot to think about.

I had planed on using poser to make a multi media comic strip (images and animations). My setting is going to be a fantasy realm (trolls, dragons, orcs, elves (not the slutty sort) magic and monsters etc etc).

Primarily I'm going to need 3 male and 3 female human characters (+ horses) to start with. Over time (assuming I keep rolling) that will expand to 6 male and females with 4 dark trolls and 3 elves and an assortment of monsters; goat men, scorpion men, cave trolls, humans (Romans), basilisks demons, vampires, zombies etc etc

The backgrounds and sets I think will probably have to be rendered in a different app. I had thought Lightwave. I want good quality forests, city’s, caves and ruins and to be honest I haven’t seen anything in the shop along those lines that I like so I think I am probably going to have to make those. 

Having trawled the store for medieval weapons I found the content on that front a little light on the ground. There isn't enough varity. I can see I'm going to have to make all that sort of stuff too.

I'm going to try and adapt existing clothing to fit my genera or make my own. The armours and clothing I want are fairly specific and need to be grounded in reality. I am thinking Greek, Roman and Persian as a base to work from.

I think I have worked out what NVITWAS stands for and I don’t plan on featuring any of them though there may be an occasional SCVITWAS! After all every female warrior needs at least 1 good quality chain mail bikini. ;)

Thanks
