I WANT! lol

Anyway, it's just a suggestion. I wish I could tell you more about Blender but I really don't have a clue.

I've been looking at 3D Coat.  This month I'm either getting that, or Miki.  :lol:

I haven't seen an equivalent of what Mike1950 is doing in the 3D Coat features, though.  What they call "retopology" isn't the same process which Blender calls by that name.  Mike1950 is able to interactively shrink wrap one mesh around another, controlling how the different areas wrap to one another.  All I see for 3D Coat is the (very worthwhile, in itself!) ability to re-work the structure of a mesh without affecting shape.

Am I missing something?  I hope so!

At this point in my insofar extremely brief modeling ventures, you would know that question much better than I...lol ;o). I just know it does retopology :o).
