I don't know if I like this lighting, it seems TOO white and flat - no depth to it. Doesn't flatter your brilliant work, but you were trying out stuff, so I guess that's cool, but no, don't like this lighting too well - he looks like he'll be trying out for a part in Twilight - LOL, hey, but maybe that was your intent. wink
magnus073
I think the lighting looks good, and enjoy your work
Mec4D
Thanks Guys, yes MK this was my intention to get the flat portrait look , that's how the older film photos looks like ... it is not colorful that was my another intention , to get the cool space light , that is pure white plus i reduced a bit the saturation too ...just want to have it different and as you said trying things out.. :)

Nice lighting. I got a Poser Pro but have yet to upgrade to Poser Pro 2010... Can't tell the different yet as I had hardly get on to Poser Pro to do rendering. Do you think it is worth the upgrade?
Mec4D
Yes it is worth the upgrade... but it take me a while to get used to the new library and other stuff ...
Kindredsoul
wow this is very realistic for Poser...I always thought Poser rendering engine is bad, but not this.
