Recently I used Poser to render some people for a holiday brochure, heavily retouched them in Photoshop, and the result was so realistic my customer thought I had hired female models. I did not want to admit at the time they were computer generated, so I said yes, they were real people and they cost a fortune to hire. He was impressed with my brochure layout and design, and paid me on the spot. He then wrote me a 2nd cheque for $700 to cover the models fees. Needless to say I was very happy.
I have learned its possible to make good money from Poser, as long as my output (renders) are retouched so as to no longer look poser generated, especially when using them in flyers and brouchures. Its takes a lot of Photoshop work, but as I`ve been using Photoshop since version 2, its 2nd nature to me. As a previous thread mentioned, no hassle of the models not turning up or throwing a fit.
I hope this thread inspires more people to make money from poser.
