NURBs and splines both have a much softer look than meshes using polygonal vertices, because they're based on geometric curves or patches instead of little sharp polygons... :-> Organic metaball-type modeling can get you the same rounded, soft kind of look (like in Amorphium or Nendo, or using the Blubble plugin with Ray Dream Studio, to cite three fairly cheap applications.) -Nemo (not a modeler. Don't even play one on TV.)
