It can turn out stunningly detailed textures and loses very little quality from the original photo, the best I've seen in that respect. It is a fully functional sculpting app that rivals Zbrush, only much easier to use.

Too true the topology tool is fantastic, I can't stress that enough :)

Sculpting is great too, I have zb3 as well and 3D Coat is much easier to use with equally great results, well woth the money I think.

For a Poser user is provides so many possibilities from custmising existing content, like giving a texture a personal touch, to creating your own full blown figures textures and all.

I truely believe that it's ease of use opens it up to all levels of skill, and it really doesn't take much playing with before it starts to feel very natural to use.  Something ZB3 never really felt like, for me at least.

Oh and here is a poser render of the vase :) I forgot to add it earlier.
