The images of the CG Pilot were created in Poser. Which does not have a very strong rendering engine.

Normally what I will do is create the character and import them into Lightwave. I will then assemble the scene and render it in Lightwave instead.

Here are some samples that I've done using Lightwave as the Render engine for my scenes.



I'm still very new to lightwave and haven't messed with the Rendering settings too much. But I will have to say... Lightwave has one of the best "out-of-the-box" rendering engines that I've ever used.

Most other app require a 3rd party rendering engine, like V-Ray to get similar quality.
