Actually, I find this modernistic "cartoon characters in a photorealistic environment" style quite unnerving.

No, I don't like it.  Sorry.

It doesn't help the story nor is it especially nice to look at.

It's just a another marketing gimmick to lure movie goers into the cinema.

But then, I also really don't like the new CGI that was created for the 1960's Star Trek TV show, replacing the old special effects:

The only time cartoon + photorealism "works" is when actual humans interact with them in the real world, like in "Roger Rabbit"

*

Besides:

La Femme is not a toon.

A good toon character is not just a figure that aimed at photorealism, but failed.

It is something else.

(And, yes, I've seen the new toon character based on La Femme. Not my cup of tea, as I rather stay with the original GIRL.

But at least she's prettier than the original.)

*

Doesn't mean we can't have nice light or pleasant looking skin or so in toon renders.

But still, full on photorealism with "not quite" photorealistic characters is indeed a waste of time in my opinion.

And it makes the problems of the characters stick out even more.

Whereas I'm way more ready to forgive typical Poser figure shortcomings when the whole render says:

"I'm a Poser render, I am what I am and I don't pretend to be anything more"

*

But do whatever you like in Poser.

 These are YOUR renders, and I don't have to like them.

Just as noone has to like mine. (Besides myself. At least sometimes. Lol)

*

But I still reserve the right to call out poor craftsmanship when I see it.

Especially when people want me to pay real $$$ for it.
