Blender is my modelling program and I actually use it a lot. I may go back to it eventually for rendering and such, but not now.  I never had any intention of building a figure from scratch. Clothes and props yes, not figures. That would be insane.

Hi Nanette... I actually found this post a bit amusing... please don't take offence, because it certainly isn't meant that way. SM advertised Poser would be easy, and you found the contrary to be true. However, NO one told you Blender was going to be easy, and you seem to find it quite usable. I'm contrasting that with the usual bleats and groans about Blender's "impossible" interface.

I found Blender a bit daunting at first. I found Poser a bit daunting at first. I use both of them a lot. I'm just glad no one told me Blender was a walk in the park... I would have chalked up my struggles to me being too dumb and would have stopped using it. People did say Blender was a bit different but to stick with it and it would grow on me. Perhaps SM might use the same strategy with Poser.

But then, how many copies would they sell?
