Poser 8

- Is output readily accepted by stock sites?
- Is there a copyright issue about the derivative images made with a 3D model?
- What is the learning curve before you can come up with decent illustrations?

There are already a heap of poser and daz images on micro sites. you'd need to check them all to see if you a doubling up on existing sites.
Daz3d has a forum that my help.

You could user poser art to create something and trace it to create you own image. I have found a great tracer you can sit on your lap and trace stuff.

Thanks for the reply. Actually people told me later on the DT forum they prefer DAZ for 3D and not Poser since the latter has a rather confused user interface. I used Daz for a while 4 years ago, but I have been too busy recently to dig in it again. What I need is a 48hrs day.  ;)

Is there any info or tutorials on "tracing"? I know, I know, I should   ;D

1 All depends on content and skill level, meaning an overall quality thing. Some Poser and Daz stuff looks really bad if you are less than skilled at lighting.

2. Copyright - Daz states in their terms that any of the models and clothing items sold there can be used for commercial output. At Renderosity, I believe all paid models are good for commercial renders (you'd be wise to double check), but it all boils down to how the license is written. On the few things I have purchased from Renderosity, commercial renders are fine. But for Free items at Renderosity, a lot of authors of freebies restrict commercial use. I picked up some nice free abstract backgrounds there that are cleared for commercial use, but a free set of flowers for Vue 3D I got were for personal use only. Read each individual license, or the terms on the site from which you are DLing.

3. Learning curve - hard to say. 3D came very easy for me, but some people just never get it. The worst thing about Poser is the content management system - sometimes it's more frustrating than learning the actual program. Daz is sort of like the baby version of Poser. If you got the hang of Daz quickly, it should make the learning curve easier.

Hope this helps you out.

I use Daz Studio. License is ok for all 3D models which you buy from them. I have little problem when Shutterstock reject some renders where was rendered people, they want from me model release. I wrote him link to Daz web site where is license. Shutterstock read Daz studio license and write me that all is ok I may submit rendered models and was approved without model release.

Yes you can use Daz3D for clipart.
I think I would ask each artist at Renderosity just to be safe, same with Content Paradise and Runtimedna.
You could also use some Photoshop filters to make them a little more unique?
