Hi Anton! I have bought AM (at introduction), along with some support products (face_off's realism kit at introduction, the Cole morphs at the occasion of the recent RDNA sale,...). I have not, however, bought clothes for him. And this is despite the fact that the Epic Clothing are (for the most part, anyway), exactly the kind of things I am looking for (things I can use to make RPG illustrations). Why is that? Beyond the steep price (the price is fair, but smaller bundles would be easier to swallow), the main reason, for me, was that they were not dynamic. As far as I can tell from the product description they are conforming only, and it is not clear if they can be made dynamic (I have read there are obstructions for some clothes, though I do not know if they apply to the Epic Clothing), or, more to the point, if I could transform them, given my rather limited capacity in that regard. Why have I found that important? Because, to me, AM represents the current pinnacle of realism, in Poser terms. Why then settle for articles which are undoubtedly nice, but not themselves the pinnacle of what I could use with my current program? I know dynamic clothing has been portrayed as not selling as well as conforming cloths (if only the number of users with P5 or P6 only is but a fraction of the whole Poser market), but I believe the best deserves the best. I fervently hope you will indeed produce a female counterpart to AM (I can only hope that I read your declaration "I said Apollo will be my one and only independent human figure. I never said I wasn't making anymore figures." (post 71) as meaning you might produce Venus, but as a cooperation). I know if you do I will buy it (as soon as I can afford it, hopefully upon release). Merci Hubert Holin
