Also, I really don't see anyone leaving a program to use Ryan and Alyson, sorry. Other figures with new technology? Possibly.
Not really the point I was making about Alyson, Ryan and Miki. And to be honest Alyson and Ryan are pretty much tied to Poser 8. Something i just read recently by Steve Cooper on the Poser blog gives me a little insight as to how they perceive the figures for Poser vs. the Mil 4 figures anyway.
But yeah, DAZ says that they've been in talks with SM. I'm assuming thats been a two way street.
What'd he say?
He said: "When sculpting the figures we used Freedom of Teach's excellent human models as a reference for proportion, bone protuberances, and musculature. Are they perfect? Considering that we created full collection in an incredibly tight time-frame, no. But they really work well, are very mutable and very closely follow real-world proportions. There are without a doubt some limitations in how the figures can pose, as is with most 3D figures. We are confident we've achieved a high point with the new Poser 8 figures."
