"Sixus1 is a top vendor."
The only thing that allows Sixus1 to be ranked "top vendor" here is the fact that his "fans/customers" have even less knowledge about human anatomy than he has.
I mean, seriously, even "alien/fantasy" muscle structure should at least follow "some" inner logic, shouldn't it?
Well, perhaps not in Poser-La-La-Land where everything goes and rules and standards be damned.
Just do whatever you want and be happy, eh?
Problem is, while total anarchy makes for an intriguing political concept and inspired some of the best music ever, it doesn't work so well with CGI, as in the end our "art" is just little ones and zeros which happen to follow very strict rules.
For example it is much easier to turn structure into chaos than vice versa.
That means, a perfectly photorealistic mesh is easy to "toonify", but a tooned mesh is impossible to turn into a photorealistic
human avatar.
So OF COURSE you start building your mesh with perfect photorealism in mind and worry about a "Toon morph" later rather than doing it the other way round.
That's the problem here. Everyone wants to be a PROPER ARTIST with a capital "A".
But what we need(ed) were ARTISANS, not ARTISTS.
Craftsmen who know their craft and just do what needs to be done without big f*cking egos getting constantly into the way.
But you have to excuse me now.
No more time to play with you as I'm now...
