HI there guys, just say how cool this forum is and everyone who posts here is doing a sterling job, the images that just keep coming and coming and are great.

My observation is that (an I dont use Poser so please correct me) there is never any weight to the models that are posed, yes the muscles seem flexed and the toes are bent, but wouldnt a model if standing on her toes have strained sinews in here feet and the ball of the foot be squashed out somewhat.

Also with portraits especially close up there seems to a depth of field issue, I dont simply mean blurring out parts of the image with Photoshop but actually rendering the image as if taken with camera lens (portraits normally with 105mm or above) to flatten the features of the model in question, my reason or this is they always seem very in your face the noses always seem prominent and there seems to be no flattening according to focal length or compressed depth of field, I feel it is this that lets allot of this wonderful work down.

Does anyone know if it sis possible to achieve something like this as it is this that puts me off trying something for myself.

Please help if you can.

Keep up the good work

As to the focal length issue, you can adjust the focal lenght of Poser cameras, that's easy. It's just that some people forget to do that.

Many thanks you just hit the nail on the head, some works are in my opinion ruined by not adding the focal length , now i can offer more constructive criticism.
