i would like to see some test with Dawn. G2V6 seems to be just a tad better than G1/V5 but not worth the effort. In my opinion Daz the company is the biggest reason not to use G2V6 and welcome Dawn as an alternative.

right with Poser. Both groups love Dawn. etc, etc.

Im not on either side. But V6 doesnt strike me as perfect either.

Im no expert. As for a general look - This product looks good: { gets away from forced tan/ ruddy look . not rubbery, or fake orange }

Here's my two pennyworth on the subject. If you wish to have realistic renders that looked like real life photographs. It's easy to do and I will tell you exactly how to do it

The fundamental flaw with poser all of their image maps are actually hand drawn so there are only as good as the artist making them.

If you wish to have realistic renders the look like life like.

It's simple use reference photographs from real models

E.g. import real photographs into your image maps.

Yes this will be a little bit of work get realistic skin effects.

And the skin to be achieved in zbrushed with a little bit of work

Exactly!!! I high quality model makes a big difference, Skin tones are always different, and then it comes down to he lighting,... so there is so many possibilities and ways things can turn out. I try to keep the skin texture color the same as the artist intended to, I like SSS... Im obsessed with it... yet every ones got the way they like it. Chopper, I played around with Zbrush the other day.. the basics tutorial creating a character from the ground up and Ohh WOW!!! Im so exited.. I just need a Holiday so that I can have time.. he he he.

Perfect example of what I was talking about.

http://www.triplegangers.com/3d-charact ... sasin.html

basically there are real life 3-D scans of people 75 pounds.

Is quite expensive but what you have to remember you can probably make so many variations
from this it is currently in its 3-D studio Max file format but I'm pretty sure they could be
done for poser. And if I have enough money at the end of my birthday I probably will buy it

to make my own custom sss body maps
