devil's,

That was an amazing explanation of ZBrush and the role it plays. You are sensing exactly what is going on at my son's school. I'll quiz him closer. Thanks for the true clarity.

Yes, I attended several XSI usergroup meetings here in Los Angeles with Blur people in attendance. It was FaceRobot that pulled me in. The app is obviously mind-boggling for anyone focused on human interaction and facial emotion. I understand the positioning and pricing of the the product......it is intended to replace hundreds of thousands of dollars in salary in big production settings. No problem. Suffice it to say, it is not for artists and small studios.

But Blur using XSI for animation sandwiched between Max and Max....I guess that path can be smooth and getting smoother with Alias owning both.

Thanks for the info and oh by the way your gallery is terrif. I like WiseGuy the best.
