Im a reformed Poserholic :) I still use it but I have more fun with my new addicition.  Making models.  Sometimes for use with Poser (usually clothes) sometimes just from scratch.  Poser got me onto that stuff, cos I didn't like the limitations I got buying and using other peoples stuff.

One package that might interest you is ZBrush, its a wonderful tool and is probably as close to 3d sculpting as you can get.  If you went to the link above you can see one or two of my amateurish attempts with it.

And many thanks to Irish for linking to my site :) it's nice to see its used by someone.

As to VF I really wanted it to be great and it is pretty good :) but it has fallen by the wayside for me.  It's handy for making somethign quickly but it can be fiddly.  I find getting symatry a real problem, but that might just be me.  So if anyone is gonna go for somethign like this, support Philc and get his.  I say this for two reasons, 1. you gotta back the underdog and 2, I've had a couple of applications off of him and they have been very good, and well supported.

John.
