Good point AntoniaTiger. My bigest hassle as said above is texture. There is a book on digital texturing I can't afford unfortunately. I have searched high and low on the net but not found but one tutorial on how the master 3D CGI artists make real world looking textures... the stuff on the net is mainly oriented to stylized graphic arts stuff. Also I find it difficult to make certain specific shapes in Poser... a the interier of a rectangular shute intersecting a tube for instance... but still what you can do in Poser is amazing. I love the control by dial since I have limited motor control for moving objects/vertices by mouse (Parkinson's). I was so hyped about Metaforms Python tool for Poser to build objects from primatives with fused joins but I find the edge artifacts that are not visible in the promo images basically make the objects unusable though the construction method is great. I got a very nice e-mail from the company in response to my request for help but they said it was just a basic limitation of the vertice generation.
