I tested phdubrov's latest product and just wanted to praise the craftsmanship and hard work that went into this set.

It really unleashes some Superfly capabilites for us all without tearing our hair out.

While I like the backdrop of the room here, I always felt that 3D furniture looks like 3D Furniture – plastic and uncomfortable. So, I set out to experiment with the Photoreal shaders to see if I could
transform it into something more realistic.
Rendered in Poser 11 Superfly with default lighting and original settings.

And, then rendered in Poser 11 Superfly with default lighting, after adding Photoreal to some of the objects in the room.

phd Photoreal SuperFly vol.1 is in the store!

Special thanks to @CWRW @Glitterati3D @NapalmArsenal for testing, proofreading, advices and incredible patience!
Fair warning: this product is complex. It comes with 58 pages PDF manual, and it needs this volume of documentation.
But IMO the possibility to make new SF material or convert older FF shader in 2-10 minutes is worth it.
This product will probably need support, so I created support thread in Using 3D content/Poser/Shaders.

And honestly, all content development not for the faint of heart ;)

For sure! What's so great is that with the supportive community here, people who want to, can get help not only from you in that thread, but from others who are using this cool product!!

Brilliant
I look forward to picking this up at some point; aside from the shader collection Vincebagna released over at DAZ of all places, SuperFly has been astonishingly poorly supported since its release. I think sadly a lot of people are intimidated by it, which is a shame--I think it's easily the most revolutionary feature added to Poser since Poser 9 finally got around to giving us real SSS. :D

Carnation Superfly Addon is in the store - as a Sweat Deal and as a part of the Carnation Value Stack with Lisa's Botanicals Carnation and my Carnation Iray Addon.
It is not just materials pack - everything is packed as ready-to-use preloads with applied Superfly shaders. Every flower in every color (and there are two bonus colors too!), every plant and every prop :)

@Miss B as you could see, I already have Starweed materials ready. What I don't decide yet if it will be one or two sets. It will probably depend on a number of preloads I'll include, and I don't know what's better - 2 Sweat Deals or one bigger set.:drawing:
