You are better than me in Poser. I don't create complete scenes with this app. From time to time I need some rendered objects. Like dragons, buildings or space ships.
I create complex scenes because I can't digital paint or do complex postwork to save myself. I'm starting to practice more though, I can only do so much without expanding my tool set.
Poser isn't exactly cheap, but it's a lot less expensive than programs like 3D Studio, Maya, Lightwave or C4D. PLus, they sometimes offer deals. There are two versions, Poser 9, and Poser Pro 2012. 9 is the cheaper of the two, but it has a few less features.
Um...supposed to be, but I think it's really open to debate. As far as I know, Maya is favoured for film work, and Studio Max is often the choice for gaming studios. I've seen C4D stuff, and it looks fantastic as well. But any of those will produce fantastic results if you know what you're doing. I'd love to get my mitts on any one of them, but they all have 4 figure price tags.
$3000 or more, I haven't checked in a while. At one time 3D Studio was $5000 here in Canada, and C4D was $4000. Lightwave is only around $1400, and Zbrush is $700. (cool program and very different in operation.)
There's also Blender, free, but it has a learning curve that goes straight up if you catch my drift.
That's the one I have! It's better than my old one, it's twice the size and I don't have to go hunting for AAAA batteries. Still...drawing on a tablet feels weird, I prefer drawinhg on good old fashioned paper.
I know what you mean. I'm really good at traditional art, so I'm wanting a Cintiq so I can be just as good at digital. But the thing costs SO much money.
Just to outfit a decent rendering machine is $3000, add on a ciniq and Adobe and the price is redonculous! If I was selling poser content, then I could justify it as a long term expense, but not otherwise.
About $7,700 with tax for the rendering, the Cintiq Touch and Photoshop CS6. That's wonderful *rolls eyes* now if it was affordable and not cost the amount of a used car; it would be fine.

This is amazing! Was this done in a 3D program?
Mar 1st ReplyMadbat
Yes, This was done in Poser Pro 2012 (by Smith Micro). It has a decent rendering engine, plus a wide community of users and content.

Is Maya supposed to be one of the best?

Dang, $3,000? I have a friend who owns Maya, it's cool for movies. Makes everything easier.

Lolz, so much money for things nowadays. A Cintique could be bought for that much.
Mar 1st ReplyMadbat
then there's the....what...$900 for photoshop cs6...ack!

These people know how to make the bucks. It's disgusting and ingenious.

Yup, that's about what I had my system priced out at here. Heck you can get a fairly decent pc for what a cintiq costs.
Mar 4th ReplyLightBurst
Mac Pro is probably the best.
