How to Create Poser-Ready Props
Poser is a powerful 3D figure design and animation application offered by Smith Micro. Poser comes with a number of 3D figures and props that can be used to create either rendered images or entire animated movies. Users can install additional props and models to the libraries. However, any imported props that you want figures to hold, such as a weapon, will have to be manually positioned each time you use them in Poser, unless you save them as Poser Ready props in the library. The process for doing this is quite simple.
