    It might be a custom light set not on the market... idk, but if it's a light set for purchase, I would like to know too.

    It looks like a Daz Studio render using the built in Uber light system. I downloaded these for Daz Studio.....

    and this...

    They're both free and produce excellent results, very similar to the Promo artwork you mentioned.

    I don't think the same results can be achieved using the Poser renderer.

    When I click on your link it takes me products for sale in the store - not free downloads.

    Isikol I think those renders were done by Randall Lloyd and I think he used Uber environment with a HDRI and 1 -3 distant lights (in DS)

    No Randals no longer with Daz as far as I know.
    He was behind the M5 launch so I think that the Promos are most likely by him.

    Does it HAVE to be Poser? Can I wow you with DS4.5?


    (Now that I look at your DA gallery. it looks like I might not b able to wow you with a real male model and a professionally lit studio. lol)

    I don't mind. Have you asked Hellboy about lighting for M5? He does excellent work.

    His name is actually HellboySoto on DV: http://hellboysoto.deviantart.com/

    Apologies scorpio64dragon, I though they were free.

    Actually, I thought the lighting used is more of http://www.daz3d.com/shop/core-lighting-2 by Lantios or http://www.daz3d.com/shop/core-lighting-1.

    Randall did a video on how he did the lighting for M5 with IBL lighting and posted it about the time of M5's release. I downloaded it then but I don't have the url. I remember he said it would be part of a tutorial section on the new forum. Found it 'Creating Simple Imaged Based Lighting [IBL] in Daz Studio 4', looks like it was on Vimeo website, as the file saved as [Vimeo]. I don't know but I hope something similar would work in Poser?

    Does it need to be m5 rendered? (I don't have this model)

    I highly recommend trying out Alfaseed's lights
    (a scene for download free, here: http://alfaseed.deviantart.com/gallery/32201301#/d5eriag)

    They make great IBL lights.

    The effect light causes depends hugely on skin material, and so it's difficult to create just a light set - if you were to use it on a different model, it may look different.

    I did experiment with my own set (I wouldn't be myself if I didn't) and rendered the scene with Indirect Light turned on. It is - I know - not a recreation of the promo and the figure is different, the texture is different... If you want to try out this lightset, let me know. No money involved ;)

    I've included three renders for comparison purposes: the light set stays the same, just the texture/material on the figure changes. The difference is surprising at times.
