There's an amazing artist here who's mastered Superfly very well, his renders are super-cool: https://www.renderosity.com/rr/mod/gallery/?uid=NobbyC

... and he just switched to rendering in Blender lol

People render in all sorts of things, Blender have the benefit that Octane come free with it as far as I know. Actually I render far more in Vray than Superfly, but I still use Poser a lot, because its so easy to work with figures in it, and when Im done I just export the figure to 3ds max and render there. It, very common in discussion here on Renderosity to read how people talking down certain programs due to one thing and therefore reach the conclusion that something else is just better in every single way. But reality is that most people that use 3D applications, switches between them for various reasons. Some might like to model in one program, animate in another, do UVs in a third, to then combine it all and render it in yet another program, to then finish it all in PS :). They all serve some sort of step in whatever workflow people catch on to over time and that they prefer. And given that blender is free means that people don't have to learn blender if they don't want to, but can simply do as me, pose and make the scene in Poser export to Blender and render using Octane, and simply learn how to do that. That doesn't mean that Poser is useless, it just fills one step in the process of making whatever you like, in the end its the final image or animation that is important, not how or which programs you used to get there :)

And people shouldn't feel bad about using premade props, people do this all the time, they just don't take credit for having created them.
