may be, because its so difficile to find objects with very realistic detaills, and if i found it, its not free,
as I am not a professional so I use only the free obj
but with photoshop i can use the realistic photos but it will be very hard to put them in the 3d scene with different tilt . i have used it but with another program
its can be some times very interessting to combin (2d with 3D) but it hard
this is a few tests between 2D and 3D with animation. can give some idea !!!!!
i know the bad quality, but its only to qive an idea to combin 2d with 3d scene
