[QUOTE="Kilmore, post: 525459, member: 5226"] I admit I may sound a little harsh sometimes, but it certainly isn't because I enjoy cutting people to pieces. Unfortunately, even the best criticism hurts, and I admit I'm not the best at giving it. And I really don't feel that not saying anything if not saying anything nice is going to help anybody. I do have to say (from what I know about it) that Poser requires AT LEAST as much talent, artistry and work to create a successful picture, if not more! That's why I'm impressed with your work in this gallery. It just seems to me that a lot of people just don't get that. In a lot of cases what I've seen, some people sink a few weeks or more into the program and expect it to churn out a Rembrant for them. Maybe they're just trying to scratch that itch. More power to them. Maybe they are learning more about design as they go. That's great. I'm just going to have to see that little spark lit up before I start paying attention. Anyways, I'm looking back at my original post, and hm... I didn't express myself very well, did I? My apologies. Now to the new pics! I think you are really showing what you can do with these programs, and what they can do for you. I love the dramatic lighting. I especially like the lively characterizations of the figures. Definitely more flesh and blood than most Poser renderings I've seen. One little problem with "Keeper of the Gate", with all the little details and the different colors, it does seem a little kaleidoscopic and hard to read. But I'm thinking you probably had to shrink it to post it in here, and that probably didn't help. I was never aware of the sketch feature in Poser. Um, I'm not sure it could be of much use to me, though. It would probably drive me nuts trying to get it right while I could just knock it out in a few minutes on pencil and paper. [/QUOTE]
