SS--I'm wondering if you read the entire initial post! I laid out the model and materials to use, and the variables you mentioned are exactly what we need to see exploited as available. Camera angle should be dead on bust. Focal length should be constant or default, because some programs dont even have that option. Whatever way you want to light it, go for it, but remember we are trying to keep detail on the poser figure, not obscure it in shadows. Small, I think you're missing the point, which is which program renders a Poser model with texture the best? Take the model, with the textures, render it, and we'll compare. It's not a symphony, it's just nuts and bolts. -Darth_Logice
