I'm mostly into just Scifi Illustration, but who knows, I might delve into animation later, and I would definitely use Carrara over poser just for this.

But currently I chose Carrara because it's ability to combine my Starships (truespace cob files) with my poser figures and my armor/weapons created in Hexagon.

I didnt see any improvement with truespace 7.5 in the ability to work together with my other programs as well as Carrara does.

so this is why I jumped ship to this software. I even paid a little more than upgrading truespace 6.6 to 7.5 , but the compatability factor makes it worth it.
