I saw an ad in a computer magazine and because I have never spent time learning to draw the human form (I spent time learning animals) I thought it would be a good way to learn computer graphics and to learn more about drawing human form. When I got it I could make some pretty awkward things happen like the head fold back, arms to twist around, I was pretty frustrated with how slow the render time was on my computer and how hard it was to get the dang people to move. I went back and spent time on the manual, but did upgrade to 3 with much more success. Then I found the forums and saw what everyone else was able to do so I began to try to learn all the techniques.
