This is by no means a dig at Renderosity - I cut my teeth here and learnt loads over ten years, and Renderosity has always been that; a great community for 3D beginners & developing amateurs. However, it used to be a place where seriously good (ie regularly photorealistic) stuff was posted but this seems to be getting more rare.

So my question is, does anyone have any idea where the best artists have moved onto? I mean, what's the natural progression from here?

 

If I'm wrong, give me some recent examples of photorealism please! Hope this thread doesn't get moderated into oblivion; I think it's a fair question and to claim that R'osity is where it's at for the top-end Poser work online would simply be incorrect. If this is a controversial point which has been done to death recently, or you'd like to offer a suggestion for where the best people have gone, please feel free to PM me!

Thanks, PN.
