Description Elania reviewed the state of things: The Lizard's main propulsion science lab: destroyed. Their chief scientist: dead. His brilliant team: irradiated and dying. The technology they had stolen from her clan: lost to them, hopefully for some time to come. The rapid expansion of the Lizard's territory had to be checked somehow, or more systems would suffer. She heard clawed footsteps behind her, and the door before her opened...to reveal Lizard warriors, who bared their teeth and charged.

About a 2-hour render in Daz with iRay, and half an hour or so's photoshopping for tone, slightly smoother blur and atmosphere. I have a feeling this could've cooked for another two to four hours, if I'd dialed in more iterations (15,000 was how many it did), to get that buttery smooth atmosphere...
The set is 2OT's  excellent modules using SFMan's  wonderful scifi kit. Lovely shiny metal, great matte rubber and plastic, skylights...so damn cool and easy to use.

Well.. never been that much of an artistic person - I could never draw well like some can.
Spent a little while many years back painting warhammer soldiers and found I could do that fairly well and it helped with the stresses of life and then around 6 months ago I finally decided, after amassing a huge colloction of 3d art such as yours, to have a play with poser (picked up pro 2014 quite cheap) and have just been playing with it and watching youtube vids since.
Now I know more I kinda feel I 'should have' learned daz studio instead and feel I am quite limited by the vic4 models with regards to realism, although I am sure my pc wouldnt cope with rendering them. What kind of pc spec do you think is nessassary ?

Like everything, the better your specs, the less pain. Daz is extremely painful once you get over 5 figures in a scene, but it can help if you've got tons of RAM- I'd put 32GB as a must. The most important thing- especially if you're using iRay- is your video card. It should probably be an nVidia one, the best you can afford.

Thanks for that.
Currently running 8gb ram and a evga 670 :/

Need to save my pennies for an upgrade.

Me too, although she would probably be better served by a suit of heavy armor.
