I'm not a high end user but I'm enjoying playing with TG2.So what if it takes a high learning curve-it is at least free to play with.There is plenty of documents to peruse at the NEW planetside forums and loads of folk are freely giving their new TG2 files away so we lesser mortals can learn HOW to do things.There should be plenty of stuff to keep one occupied for years..

by the way I too love Bryce 6 and Daz Studio.Still struggling with Poser 6.,Hexagon2,Shade 7.
