How to fit lots of hi-res poser characters into one scene file. Tutorial series.
This series goes through how to create low poly but high(ish) resolution figures and how to animate them.
It’s a follow on series from my low poly poser figures series which was geared towards background figures.
Now we are back with the close up series. Similar techniques but we’ve upped out game.
Please like the series for more like this.

Great thanks for the tutorials. Carrara pro 64 has some very nice features and is cheap enough for regular users to have access to a fully functioning 3D program. I just hope Daz add Nvidia Iray support to Carrara soon! Carrara is a real 3D program unlike Daz Studio which is just a platform to sell their 3d Models. Octane likewise is too expensive for my budget but the renders are amazing and it is faster than Nvidia Iray. I have a Nvidia GTX 780 with 6gb of Video ram and Iray works well with this card. Got card refurbished and it suits me just fine.
