Quote - Aeilkema, time after time I look at your stuff and think your toony style is really the best way to go with 3d art. I am too far committed to the semi-realism style.....But I love the simplicity and the storybook quality you get with your toons.

Oh, thanks for the compliment :) I'm the other way around then you are, I'm so far into toons with Poser, that it's hard to me to break free from it. Even my realistic stuff somehow turns toony in Poser.

I do more realistic stuff as well, for that I do use Vue. When it comes to realism, Vue and I are just good a match as me with Poser and toons. I'm happy with having these 2 apps, when it comes to toon look, Vue can come close, but it can't beat Poser and I do think when it comes to realism it's the other way around.

Don't be fooled though by the simplistic looking toon style. People often think it's easy to accomplish, but in this case looks are deceiving :) It took me a while to get it all as I wanted it to be and with a lot of my sets I make sure the customer does get the same light sets I've used for it.

 

Quote - If I want realism I'll use a camera. You never see a person taking a picture with a camera to see how toony he can make it look.

Actually I do.... not kidding but I do take photographs with a toon filter on my mobile phone once in a while. Just to get a different perspective on things and see who I can use it in my 3D art. Not often, but there are times I do that. It's not something common to do though :)

Artwork and 3DToons items, create the perfect place for you toon and other figures!
