I read an article recently that said photorealism is on the way out and a more artistic approach to CG is the next big thing in 3D. It might have been the same one. Looking at it from the photorealism perspective, I agree with the points you've listed in post 7, Anton. I would also add that Poser people's bodies don't move correctly. There's no sag or flow of flesh over the skeleton. You rarely see anybody do a good job of showing muscular strain. Vicki seems to be able to lift a huge sword without tensing her biceps and to dance without relaxing. Also, nobody seems to sweat, at least not in a realistic way. I agree absolutely that most of the Poser pictures here don't have anything much to say. I'd count most of my own in that category, but then I don't pretend to be an artist. Artisan is a word I much prefer for myself.
