I have Poser 8 and am interested in having more realistic skin tones and appearance than comes with the default Poser skin so I'm wondering what is the best way to go.

Personally I like the renders in Vue better than the renders in Poser so I'm asking you skin experts out there if VSS (BagginsBill - which I've read about) is better than the plugin for Vue, Skin Vue to create more realistic skin, especially for the face?

I have also used the MoTY mats but don't know if I'm really talking about three different solutions.

VSS as I understand it is a lighting plugin for Poser that helps give more realistic skin tones and shading, where I think Skin Vue is an actual material layer for figures in Vue. So, if I'm rendering in Vue then VSS wouldn't do me any good. Is that correct?

Anyway, any enlightenment and clarification would be helpful.
