Short answer: Simplistic monsters and people, and even more simplistic trees and such. I'm working on a style that involves heavy use of primitives: Balls, cones, cubes, etc. I've been using trueSpace (an OLD copy of tS... 4.3) to do my modeling and excluding some deformations and boolean-ing they're not going to be very complicated, math-wise, at all. I tried to use Poser to assemble the models but the interface felt too clunky for me (so does tS, I hasten to add... It took me half as much time in Vue Easel as it did in tS to do the same amount of work) and I didn't get very far. Maybe I didn't give it enough of a chance, I may try again at a later date.

 

As far as rendering, my eye isn't experienced enough to be able to tell the difference yet. Vue Easel may not be able to model like I'd wanted, but at least I can still use it as a Stage-Setting-Up program.
