Art of the Promo

I was thinking about promo images, that we're all looking at every day as we visit here, and then figured, I'm certain other people have other similar favorites. And so I figure a gallery of your absolute favorite promo images from your favorite artists that can be seen as works of art in themselves would be a fun gallery. Post em if you've got em.

There's so many, hard to pick!
cool thread. I like the product renders where there are more than one character and there is a story or something going on in the scene other than just the character standing there looking sexy
Here are three I downloaded because I liked 'em a lot. There are lots of characters interacting and doing stuff. I think they are quite well done.
I have to agree with you that the promos that tell a story do tend to be alot of fun.
Hah! yes Firstbastion. That first image with the car in the lake is laughs!
I also have a couple of favorites although it isn't by any length a full list :)
95% of Ron's promos are usually very inspiring.
you're right! Every time I think of Ron's store, I think of the great promo art. The ones I remember are grunge and milk, but the water ones are cool too.
Oh man, how did I miss that Eve promo? That is a hoot. You don't see renders like that every day.
No, you don't :) It is actually a joke on some of earlier Uzilite's own promos (Hardcore, I think?) but it was still exceptionally funny :)
It is almost like Hawkeye Initiative but years before it ^_^
It is on my wishlist now. Just for the chutzpah. I love anything that isn't the typical pretty-gal promo.
rofl@ sniffling bus-boy not included
The promo art for "Jack of Hearts" also has some great renders. Love the sense of perspective, and the cool looking characters.
Wish I could discover which artists make all those wonderful promos.
A lot of the promo artwork for products that are purchased by DAZ and sold as "DAZ Original" were done by an artist that goes by the name of JoeLeGecko. Most of the other promos seen in the store are by the PA's who make the products and promos themselves.

A little bit of thread resuscitation, there's something surprisingly cool and cinematic about the genesis mouse promo.
Really like this autumn country road by HowieFarkes and and timeless beauty is exactly that from Mindvision. Great promos!
Some fantastic promos here, that Eve one gave me a laugh and Howie Farkes is just amazing at everything he does.
Here's one I love from AgeofArmour.
I thought this was a cool bit of promo art. Made me look up the firefighter and add him to my wishlist!
I have a large collection of Promo images, but this one came to my mind immediately.
Nightsong definitely is one of the masters in Poserdom. She's done some outstanding renders,
This Stonemason environment is pretty cool.
Age of Armour promo for the new spotlight.
I like it when promos hint at a bit of storytelling and emotion. All the "Aiko Loves Freak" promos have a sense of story and presence.

Great bunch of images you've added.
Speaking of Alphaseed/AerySoul , who makes some awesome promo shots, one that sticks to memory was one for Desiree hair, which due to TOS , I can't post. It's a hair promo, but the promo is a full nude of Alice wearing the hair. Great hair with some excellent movement morphs, guess that's a way how to sell stuff.
I really like the sleek look of this bike, and the D|S promo with the SSS and hilights is very nice. This other promo by RawArt is totally fun, "comeon, give old Frankie here a hug" ;-)
