I have never gotten anything usefull from the sketch render in Poser but I wonder if there are other ways to get traditional media effects in rendering? I read that high "radiosity' settings can get a painterly effect but I don't know what this means or if it is doable in Poser. The only techniques I have found for achieving an artistic look is z-tooning as described in the tutorials here and rendering with textures plugged into the ambient channel instead of the surface diffuse as shown above in a render of a scene with no lights in it.
Anyone come up with anything clever? My attempt at a pencil shading shader did not turn out well.
