I have some pics- but not in DC format yet. [img]smile.gif[/img] I'm still learning how to set up the lighting, which is really hard b/c the preview screen and the rendered pic are vastly different on my system (the render is much, much brighter). I did just get a pretty nice looking picture from TwilightKing, though. So, there are at least three of us working on Daz Studio.
If you haven't already, check out the freebie section at the Daz site and the "freepozitory" forum there as well. Renderosity has something like 7000+ freebies for poser which will work with Daz Studio. (Sure, there's almost nothing as far as what you're looking for, but there are a bunch of pretty good swords and axes.)
I'm working on armor props, and if I get anything halfway usable, I'll post on my site.
