Great work guys! I sit here in front of my monitor and qawk, at the talent displayed here.

As far as whether to touch up or add to a 3d image using a 2d package, I think is determined on the artist's desired output.

Stills get close inspection by the viewers. Sometimes one will sit and stare at a still image for quite sometime. So enhacements are a good choice.
Animation...everything usually happends so fast that we are not staring at a single image, but are wowed! by the motion. So we can get away without the added detail.

Now when we render out a single frame we take that into PSP, PS6, Painter... ... and enhance the image, and we still have the 3d scene for animation.

I will stop rambling now.
