toying around with making characters in character creator. rendered with the iray renderer, which makes a HUGE difference. picked up the gladiator combo pack, my first clothing set for cc3, and so far its great. i cant stress enough how much i am enjoying the reallusion family of products, between poser and daz which i have used for years, there just isnt any comparison. pros and cons and personal preference to each of course, but cc3/iclone are just amazing. not to push anything on people, but i highly recommend the "Ultimate Digital Human Creation Bundle". headshot may be useful, but not critical, and you may not "need" iclone or 3dxchange, but you will "want" cc3.
