Please tell me that one of us did not do the crappy base dork illustrations in the eliza dukshu maxim on the newstands this month.

I think one of their own staff does that stuff since the dork seems to appear there on a regular basis, though I have no idea if they are a member here.

Maxim's art staff regularly uses Poser; however, I have yet to see any custom morphs, clothes, faces, hair, etc. on any of them. It's pitiable to say the least. FWIW I haven't seen any non-newbie renders of P4 characters in any popular media. It's almost as if the art directors were putting their feet down on any downloadable content on the grounds we'd sue. The one time I saw a pregnant belly on one of their posettes the render was cartoon with line, strongly suggesting the artist did the belly post-production in Photoshop where an image with flat tones is easily retouched.

because any one suing would just be blowing the opportunities for all of us.
