It also depends on why you are using the software and if your 'art' has a purpose.  I have always had a fairly good imagination but lack any skills with pencil and paper.  OK maybe I could get better with some training and a lot of time but if I want to get my imagination into the real world I am not going to better Poser with my set of pencils.  Much better for me to spend the time trying to build the character and textures I need than trying to draw. 

I have had photography as a hobby for over thirty years and I enjoy it but without a vast budget I am not going to be able to photograph the Sci-Fi images I have in my mind.  I am also not looking for Photo Realistic in Poser but more a 'believable' image.  No one will look at any of my Poser renders and think 'that may be a photograph, but I hope some might look and think 'someone or a place like that could exist'.   Mind you with most my characters at a relative 5' 1" with a thin but athletic body no one is going to think statuesque, but then that is not my aim.  There are plenty of renders out there to meet that need.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
