User gets Poser11, looks for commercial content support for these figures, there isn't because the figure is an MR and if you want something you need to do it yourself.
That's the fault of the vendors. The MR is specifically for vendors to take advantage of. If they choose not to it's no one's fault but their own. I fail to see the logic in that statement.
There are other people working on figures. It doesn't have to come from SM. There are a number of artists around here who could build a good commercial support network for whatever they might produce just based on the success of their previous work. SM provided Pauline and soon to be Paul - as an attempt to give content artists a blank canvas to build whatever figure they want to build without having to start from absolute scratch or worry about licensing restrictions and copyrights, etc. It's not possible to meet everyone's expectations in what makes the perfect figure. That's where a true content artist gets to step in and build whatever they want from that base starting point and grow a following around their work. I agree she could be better, and a lot of testers tried to get her to a better state but deadlines are deadlines. There are a number of people who seem to like Pauline more than previous SM figures. And they've taken several steps with P11 to make content creation easier, which could just as easily have been what was meant by the 'content is king' phrase. Since it was never actually elaborated on it's anyone's guess what was really intended by it.
