I've hear a little about "postwork" and as the name indicates it would be work that's done on an image after it's rendered in Poser. I've heard postwork talked about in reference to hair and usually using Photoshop. I was wondering what some other things people do with postwork are and what some other programs people use are? Thankz Kid Kaoz

Besides hair, some people do clothes in post and fix bad joints on poser figures, add highlights, smoothing of edges and reflextions. Besides Photoshop wich is a high end program, Paint Shop Pro is a good low budget paint program and can do most of what Photoshop can do.

Some of the really good artists here will actually put clothing on the figures in postwork... check the tutorials section... a few of them posted how they do it there...
It's also very commonly done to "clean up" images (get rid of unwanted folds at joints and so forth)...
Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro are probably the most common programs for it, but really, most any graphics editor can be used... if you want a good free one, try Gimp...

Here is an example of a pre and postworked image. I added hair, background, effects, jointfixes, lighting enhancements, you name it.

(oh, to answer your second question..) To postwork this image I used Bryce (sky), Photoshop (joint fixes, color adjustments, water, fire), and Painter (hair, texturing, lighting enhancements)

I posted above about shadows. The hair in that image is untouched but the shadows were done postwork. I think Photoshop is the best tool you can have for postwork, especially if you get a few filters. However, due to the cost, some choose to use Paint Shop Pro and some choose to use freeware paint programs like Gimp or Dogwaffle or Ultimate Paint. If you scan the bryce gallery on 3dcommune for works by ocddoug, you'll be delighted. He uses B4 and freeware paint. So its not the program but more the artist. That said, imagine what Doug could do with the right tools!!! Just so you know, I tend to post images here that are not post worked. I like the feedback. When they are post worked they go in my portfolio. Doesn't matter how you got there, if the final image excites your viewers, you did it.
