Technically, the model developed for MakeHuman is: Light and optimized for subdivision surfaces modelling (15,128 vertices). Quads only. The human mesh itself is triangles free, using Catmull-Clark subdivision for extra resolution to base meshes, see also polygon mesh. Only E(5) Pole and the N(3) Pole, without holes and without 6-edge poles.
Poser (and Poser Pro) is a figure posing and rendering 3D computer graphics program distributed by Bondware. [2] Poser is optimized for the 3D modeling of human figures.It enables beginners to produce basic animations and digital images, along with the extensive availability of third-party digital 3D models.
A figure study is a drawing or painting of the human body made in preparation for a more composed or finished work; [1] or to learn drawing and painting techniques in general and the human figure in particular.
