Actually there is TONS of great Japanese props in Poser format- all kinds of traditional and cultural items for Bon Dances, Mochi Making, Tea Ceremonies, Japanese Flower Shop, Sushi Bar, Shinto Shrine, Buddhist Temple, etc. Just go to one of the good Japanese websites and start following the links. But you may have to do a little bit of digging around as they often don't "actively" promote these in English. It is probably because they don't want to have to SUPPORT them- and some people DEMAND that all kinds of things be done for them for a FREE model. Also using a Japanese operating system (Mac or Win) throws in strange characters. (I don't mind doing this since I have worked with Japanese graphics software programs for about 15 years- --but not actively for the past 5 years! Don't IM Me!.) That's why I stopped posting links to these good ones. It's better that the people who REALLY WANT THEM go and find them. Then maybe they will be a little more patient with model makers who often aren't techies and speak very little English.
