Should Poser have a contest like reallusion iclone contest ?

At first glance this seems like a good challenge. However, keep in mind that in this contest the software provides all the tools needed to fulfill the contest requirements. The participants won't have to do any actual modeling or morphing in a modelling program or texture creating in an image editing application if I've read it correctly. "Freely manipulate shapes, adjust age, skin, attire, and fabrics on the fly"

To make it as close as possible to this one would need to limit themselves to the Poser figures that are compatible with the Face Room and can be manipulated that way. I don't think details can be added to textures within Poser using only the software itself so that would not be the same. With people buying morph packs and textures or merchant resources to create a character the contest would not be the same.

I would like to see diverse characters created in Poser, though. A few years ago Renderosity had a contest for Miss Renderosity which was something like that as people had to create their own contestant but that was limited to "beauty queens". What about having separate challenges for children, teens, middle-aged and old characters as well as fantasy/mythological characters? The rules, of course, would have to allow for resources to be used but not ready-made, store bought or free characters.

We have Iclone 6 and the Character creator app but not installed until some hardware upgrades are made,

With the new Character creator program ,Reallusion has wisely decided to give Iclone users an internal option for making our own custom realtime characters without dependency on Daz figure imports. and it was well timed as Genesis 3 broke Direct compatibility with Iclone. As to the OP's question Kalypso is correct that poser could not have a similar contest as Most poser users use Daz V4 and third party commercial characters and the native SM figure ship with very little customization options built in.

Forget all about reallusion.

Think Poser or Renderosity should have a contest for CGI Artist to make Poser characters ?
