Postworking  a Poser Render in Photoshop Page 1 This tutorial is designed  to show the postwork process for a rendered Poser image and it assumes  you have a working knowledge of Photoshop or your favorite image editing  program. I don't have any *one* method of postworking an image but tend to experiment with different things  for each image. I'm sure there are many methods to achieving the same goal and this tutorial is not meant to say that my methods are the right  way or the only way, just that these are the steps I took to arrive at  my finished image. Programs/Items used in this Tutorial: Photoshop 6 -- Many of these methods can be followed using Paint Shop Pro 6 or 7.  The commands and names for certain filters may be different and I cannot  help you with those. The important thing is having a program that uses  Layers. Painter 6 Poser Render from the Tutorial on Creating a Complex Scene in Poser I opened the Render 2.tif image and duplicated the render layer, then saved the image as a .psd. Then using Image/Adjust/Brightness/Contrast I moved the sliders until I was satisfied with the effect. Here I duplicated the contrasted layer and started making small fixes. You could  begin your fixes on the contrast layer itself but I like to save at least  one copy of the original render untouched in case I make too many changes  that I end up not liking. It makes it much easier to start over from the  beginning. Using the  dodge tool and a 1 pixel brush I added some highlights to the hair. Using the smudge tool and a 1 pixel brush I pulled out some strands of hair.   Using the  clone brush I cloned part of the back wall to cover the skirt that was sticking up.
