I don't find modeling in Bryce very intuitive. I find it's great for simple modeling but other than that I find it slow and cumbersome and your scene can become cluttered beyond recognition quite fast and when it does, you need to resort to coloring, hiding and naming schemes to try and keep it all together. Can sometimes be quite bewildering. Of course, if you have nothing else at your disposal then you make due with what you have at hand. I've long ago stopped considering if I should model something in Bryce or in another package. To me, time is of the essence and if an item can be modeled in Bryce quick enough without having to transfer over to another program, like a simple book, a ball, a fast wheel, a pyramid, a simple cabinet, shelves, doors and things of that simple nature then I model them in Bryce. Anything more complicated, I'm off to another program where it can be done quicker and with more control knowing that Bryce was never meant to be a modeling program. I can appreciate and respect those that find no time constraints and find it a challenge to sit there and prove that something can be modeled in Bryce. I can see that as a labor of love and it says a lot about the perseverance of the person. It's like putting together a 2 thousand-piece jigsaw puzzle. My hats off to them but I have no such self imposed ambitions in my sights.
