"Drac and The Bryster have shown that Bryce and Wings can do basically the same thing, even if the timescale is wildly different." Hmmm. I wouldn't go that far actually, because the modeling capacity of Bryce is rather primitive compared to what Wings (or any decent spline/sub-d modeling tool) can help you accomplish. Sure, given a talented boolean modeler like Bryster obviously is, many things are possible, but still many aren't... at least not to the same degree of ease and detail and flexibility. Organic modeling of any kind can be sort of difficult and unintuitive in Bryce, given you only have booleans, primitives, and metaballs to work with. For example, how would one go about "boolean" modeling a realistic human head/body in Bryce that is flexible enough for animation and morph acceptance? This is an example of something that can be done very well in Wings using sub-D box-modeling techniques, but not realistically possible in Bryce. ;-) Speaking from a strictly architectural point of view, however, Bryce is capable of modeling just about any structure, as Bryster has demonstrated.
