Lovely girl! I'm so impressed and envious. I love magnets. Took me a long time to wrap my feeble brain around them and I'm still not really good like some. But, most of my products have been altered a bit with magnets. I can add a tiny nose tweak to a full new look as I did for Jessi. I never would have used that figure if I couldn't have changed her to my taste. And it was all with magnets. Some days are terrible and I can't do anything and forget everything I have learned. Other days are wonderful and I morph and alter and save and use on other figures and do hair and have a ball. Once had to fix an inverted something that "just happened" in anim8or and that was neat, finding that I could actually fix something that I had broken. But it's when I'm morphing with the dials and look and see that I would like the upper lip a little fuller. And there's no dial to do that. All I have to do is pull out a magnet, fool around a little and, voila!, there it is. It's a good thing. And Mike3 has the flattest cheekbones on the planet and I can add a magnet, mirror it with Python that I found here, pull the cheekbones out a bit and save him and use that model for all future Mikes. So cool. Of course, this is coming from someone who doesn't know how to use a 3D program very well. Always planning to learn and never finding the time. So to be able to change what I want without ever leaving Poser is just perfect. And much less expensive unless you use a free program!
