The big difference between lighting in poser and bryce is that in bryce you've got the sun (one big white light), while in poser you've got three or more colored lights...that's the defaults. Skin tones seem to look better with tinted lights. You can of course add radial and spotlights to mimic this in bryce, but that will change the lighting on the whole scene... One can adjust the falloff on the lights so that they only strike the subject. A couple of lights with ranged or squared falloff, and a slight tint, would probobly get the effect you're after (DeanCarl mentioned something simular to this, and his renders do look great). One thing I like to do...I don't like bryce's default sky settings. I turn the shadow intensity down from the default 90'ish to around 60 or so, and change the ambiant color (in the skylab, not the matlab) to an offwhite instead of just plain old white. hope that helps....8^)
