4.0 out of 5 stars
Practical Poser 7,
This review is from: Practical Poser 7 (Graphics Series) (Paperback)
I'm about a quarter of the way through this book. So far, it has all the detail I'm looking for.
The biggest knock I have against it is, on the back of the book, it says the CD has "all the files for the tutorials, including necessary Poser content, textures, and images". THAT IS A LIE. I had to write to the publisher to find out that you do, indeed, have to purchase content, if you want to use the same content that is used in the tutorials.

Practical Poser 7,
This review is from: Practical Poser 7 (Graphics Series) (Paperback)
Authors should use Adobe Tutorials as a model. Practical Poser 7 is a text for reading, not a tutorial for doing. It is not self contained with all materials needed to do the tutorials. It is also obviously keyed to stimulate purchases from Content Paradise. Needs considerable improvement. Not intuitive.

Intermediate to Advanced Level Book,
By
This review is from: Practical Poser 7 (Graphics Series) (Paperback)
This book is listed as a beginning to intermediate level book. I think it's actually a little higher than that. It presumes that you have at least reviewed the Reference Manual, and hopefully worked through the Tutorial Manual. This is a tutorial style book. It takes you through a series of steps that will teach you more about the design of a person than you imagined.
After going through this book, I'm not going to say that the people making the next Harry Potter movie will jump at the chance to hire you, but I will say that you'll know a hell of a lot more about the computer creation of characters than you did when you started. The key is to make characters look real. And here the authors point out little things like what do the fingers do in the hand that isn't reaching for something. And how do you make the torso bend with the body so that it looks real. All in all, quite an exceptional book that I highly recommend. These people know what they are doing and know how to write about it. The CD supplied with the book has a wealth of material including: All the files used in the book and all of the images Numerous Poser figures from a variety of sources UV Mapper Software (Classic version) Additional material from previous versions of this book
