Thanks all! freyfaxi, I know what you mean but believe me the cuirass model is shaped as stiff as it could be, there is the obligatory bending on the shoulders and abdomen since it's a conforming figure. You can't avoid it in a 3d program without non-collision. The best thing of course would be to have it as a prop so it wouldn't bend but that would make it impossible to work with in Poser and a nightmare to animate. It will take more careful posing to get the effect you're talking about and that in stills only :( That's one of the limitations of Poser and is evident in most chest armor as well. You're very observant, freyfaxi - I've never seen this mentioned before not even in cases where metal armor bends :))
