Description
Yet another black and white of an earlier image (color version here).
I usually spend a lot of time fixing joints, clothing poke-thru, weird shadows, etc., so I feel better about throwing all this time down the Poser hole if I sometimes can get two images out of one render...
Usually, if a render comes out well, I will fix all the above crap first, before I apply any kind of contrast, color tweaks, filters, cropping, or whatever. So then I have a "fixed" image that I can play with, come back to later to try it in BW, or combine with other images, without having to do all the fixes again.
I highly recommend the Virtual Photographer plugin for postwork, particularly black and white stuff. Very easy to use. I usually blend a BW pic with a sepia layer at about 85% or so.

Stupendous image. What are you using for the gloves? Are they second skins (with a bump or displacement map, I assume)?

The black and white image is so rich feeling. The specularity of the eyes, lips and jewelery are perfect! I would however work a little postwork on the hair by her left shoulder. too even in my opinion. But I do love this image.

I think that B/W images are always looking more photoreal than the best colored one. Awesome portrait!!
