I bought Poser 8 back in March just on a whim. I had no idea at the time what it was about or how to go about doing anything. I am one of those few people who can learn something just by watching someone do it, and get an understanding of why they do this instead of that, so I am good about watching tutorials, and I don't think of it as work. It's part of the hobby this has become for me. I am really only limited financially. I can't buy props and characters and all the neat stuff that is on here for sale. I have too many family commitments and not enough free cash. Poser 8 just kind of fell into my lap. I am retired US Navy, and it was on sale in a Navy Exchange in Baharain. I didn't even open it (much like I am doing to Blender right now) for the first couple of months I had it installed on my computer. Once I did, and got passed the initial shock of the interface, I was off and running. I have really only begun to get serious about what I was producing after messing with all the different features and creating Gigabytes of deleted material. Now I am in full swing, and that's why I am on here more than I was when I first signed up. So lets see where the next month or so takes me until I have to get back to sea (I am a merchant seaman after retirement, the sea gets in your blood).
If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
