For those of you who didn't know (which is likely everyone), the filename for my modded Posette on my machine is "Posette 10x." She got that number because it's the 10th revision.
Anyway, recently on the Rendo boards, Jim Burton posted the following:
Yeah, the Posette doesn't look all that bad with a good texture, but try putting her in some poses like these.
You can dress her up, but you can't take her out. ;-)
And he posted an image of V4 in various poses to go along with it.
Unfortunately, I can't duplicate pose #1, simply because V4 in her default state is anatomically incorrect in the proportions of her arms and legs. For those who have trouble believing this, just lower her arms to her sides and compare her to yourself - the length of her humerus, radius, ulna, tibia, fibula and femur are incorrect as compared to the rest of her body and as measured in head-lengths, and her armpit fold is too high (the pectoral muscle connects lower on the humerus in a real human). Also, post #2 is physically impossible. For those who don't believe me, try it - sit on your rump on the ground with your knee folded so that your ankle touches your hip. That crackling, snapping sound is the ligaments in your knee and hip tearing.
My modded Posette was built with real human bends in mind. In fact, to check her bending, I simply asked my wife to pose for me and took pictures, then fixed up Posette so she'd look the same. As such, she can't get into some of the positions shown in the original image.
However, given those limitations, this is what my modded Posette looks like in poses that are roughly similar:
When I say "my modded Posette has bending comparable to V4", I'm not just talking out my butt.
Stop accepting "it's impossible" for an answer. Demand more for your money. I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. If I can do it, then professional artists can do better.
