The Antonia Polygon Project is a Poser community development and distribution initiative. The team is made up of those who want to participate, and meets mainly at PoserPlace, referenced in my signature. Different projects will have teams that will be composed of varying mixes of participants. Key to the work at PoserPlace is focus, so, arguments about applications, the business practices of various developers, figures not under development, and other distractions are excluded. Participation is expected to be positive.

After the release of Antonia Polygon ~ WM, and the Yuletide content release for Antonia, the next figure project will likely involve the release of a rig with weight-maps for a popular legacy figure. This will require an entirely different distribution approach in order to protect the intellectual property rights of the owner. I do not know if a rig with weight-maps will be released for the male counterpart of that figure or not.

PoserPlace is the home base for Diogenes/Phantom3D, who is the developer of Brad, and a central participant in our projects. Brad is on the projects agenda. Right now, Diogenes is considering releasing the work he does on Brad in a tutorial format in order to apprentice people in advanced Poser compliant mesh design, rigging, and weight-mapping. NO PROMISES on this. Diogenes is considering it.

All of these projects are bridges to a line of figures that will be designed to be fully Poser compliant, and to use the many neglected features of the newest versions of Poser. S/M, be on notice that we intend to push Poser to its limits.
