Description
Well i finally managed a render with reality, please note though ,this is not a complete render, it is only 1.5 hours old so to speak and already i like it....there are a few blemishes and not sure about the shadows from the hair or the gloss finish on the hair texture.
Already i can see that you need good quality textures on a figure to get the most from reality, this is also a 32bit render, two point lights(ibl setting ) and a plain background colour..
I will post the full version when i have given it a few more hours in the oven...oh and one thing more...don't have a screen saver running at the same time, it takes ages to get the desktop back up once the saver kicks in !!!! lol and i have a dual core processor at the moment and 3 gig ram..it sure is a hungry prog !!

She looks indeed beautiful, great work.
Excellent first try of reality ! The result is stunning, can't wait to see it after more hours ! And you managed to have highlights in the eyes :-)
It looks great! Thank you for the information!
Wow it looks superb !!
very attractive character
very beautiful !!
3gb ram I am jealous, lol. I must admit though for a work in progress it is quite fantastic. Lovely expression and I cannot wait to see the finished work.
it's looking good. can't wait to see the finished product !
Looks promising.
Beautiful portrait and great lighting !!!
Very Lovely!
She is lovely Nice work
She looks great! the eyes are amazing, really. i dont know if your looking for constructive criticism or not but i always appreciate it so here goes. the glossiness of her hair is a minor issue, good clean strong hair should have shine to it(dont mean to sound like a pantene commercial;) but i would be more concerned about the rough shadow sawtooth effect on her (stage)left shoulder, and im assuming this was a product of reality but there seems to be a small issue with the trans maps on her hair showing through, you can faintly see the actual hair object towards the hair tips, but dont take any of this as a personal attack on your or anything, new unforeseen issues always come up when using/learning new programs, it all a part of the process of bettering our art and ourselves as artists. the first time i rendered an image in max i didnt know anything about making the textures work or trans maps so the image came out looking like crap, of course back then i thought it was awesome lol! other than that the textures and eyes are absolutely phenominal and i know the final image will look amazing.
I'm looking forward to seeing the final render of this very nice portrait! Being only a little poserist, I can't give you any advice about the use of reality;- ) ! I like the eyes and the expression. This is going to be great! Cheers Odile
Great render my Friend!!!
A very good portrait. Also I think the shine of the hair a bit too strong - but the end result is certainly perfectly! Great eyes!
i go along with mike,although i dont pay soo much attention to the technical details. i must feel a work speaking to me and giving me something and then i go look for the techh/spercs but thats me the weird doc lol.
Beautiful work.
Mate, you need more RAM!! Ya, I learned the whole screensaver lesson months ago! Keep at it :)
Very lovely work on this Ian I think she is looking wonderful and I look forward to seeing the finished work.. Well done!!
Beautiful!
Well Ian my friend she's Alive Alive Ha! Awesome look amazing skin tone and eyes!! With such a warm look and feel you can't help but love it!!
wonderful render!!
very well done!!
great start, love that small ray of lighting hitting from the left, very nice touch
You've done a wonderful work, Ian. It does take a lot of time to render a realistic image even with Poser, the lighting and render settings are two important factors to consider but the results are amazing. The waiting part is the one that sucks most.
Great render!!!
