No, I haven't figured it out yet.  I was hoping it was the commercial version of Wings, since that's where I intended to fit it in my workflow.  But I haven't spent much time with it either.  Despite buying Carrara6, Hex and Truespace7, and getting the zBrush 3 upgrade, I did my last project entirely in Poser7, Wings, UVMapper, Ultimate Paint and Satori Photo simply because I'm used to them.

Blender failed my most importabt test, and that's if I can do anything with it without reading how.  I couldn't.  From the first time I ran it and said to myself  "Why am I looking down on a purple cube?" I knew it was a little different.  I check blendernation a few times a week, even bought an excellent book on character animation using blender.  I thought I could learn the hardest, strangest parts of it, but I could never even get comfortable just changing my viewpoint.  It wants me to have a hand on the keyboard at all times and uses the mouse in a totally alien way.  I wish Kai Krause would overhaul their UI so I could actually use the thing!
