I've got to admit, nothing I've seen about Pauline so far impresses me. The character by Lululee looks great, until you look at the shoulders, and they seem to have a ballooning issue similar to V4 (actually worse than V4). There was also a good render by BaginsBill, but that's about it. Unfortunately, the other renders I've seen simply don't leave me feeling good about the figure. The feet/heels definitely look wrong, or maybe just unattractive and disproportionate?

Hopefully things will change for the better before Pauline and Paul are released. Maybe it's just a case of several poor renders so far, and Pauline will actually look better in the hands of some of the great poser artists? Unfortunately, right now it looks like Pauline in on the same track as Roxie, rush the figure out the door with known issues, and expect the "community" to fix her - we can see how well that worked for Roxie. At any rate, it will be interesting to see what the final versions looks like.

I also hope it's just the skill level of the beta testers, because I haven't see many (4 or 5??) great Cycles (Superfly) renders yet. I hope this is just because lighting is soooo much different with Superfly that long time Poser users haven't figured it out yet. My first Iray render was definitely better than most of what I've seen so far. I just hope that Cycles integration in Poser is as easy to use and get great results from as Iray is in DS.
