Cin, i left you a comment about your Snow Queen, after seeing this thread. And i do thank you for being a good sport. It looks like you are about to gather yourself up and go to your next level as an artist. i would suggest that you start playing with more adventurous camera angles and harder poses. Also, look deeper into the details of clothing fit and texturing and bump mapping. Do not be satisfied with corners on hair renders, and things like that (i saw some of those in some of your pics). Anti-alias always. Details, details. Look at pictures of other people you admire, and see what's different about those. One of the challenges of using Poser & 3D generally is to keep the people from looking like dolls. Now, messing with digital dolls is fun, and there's nothing wrong with it, but if one is serious about improving, art-wise, one has to reach further for verisimilitude, and that means introducing the chaotic imperfections that real life contains. A little unevenness in straight lines, a little clutter and mess and dirt. Real people, even gorgeous ones, are a little asymmetrical in their features and how they stand and hold themsleves. Nobody's shoulders are ever level. Feet do not rest symmetrically on the floor. Heads tilt a little. Left and right eyes are never the same amount open. There are small pores and scars on skin. It's not something one should exclaim at, but if they're missing, the picture doesn't breathe and live, however simple or complex it is. Keep posing!! hugs, Nan
