its not that you have to blend your stock (fuck calling it render... its not even a render) its that the way most people do their bgs blending it in with the bg looks alot better. if your goot at blending you can make the stock look as if its in a three dimensional world. most times it gives the sig depth... something that people usually miss on small peices. this looks cool. Has a very cool ambience, and has a very smooth style that you'd usually see in much larger peices. however... its very very boring. nothing to look at really. good, but boring.
