If you are actually looking for a way to create people just using the booleans objects in Bryce then you may want to take a look at my Astronauts that I use in all my pictures. I created all of those guys just using the booleans objects that come with Bryce. The only cheat that I used was the faces that I found somewhere online over 10 years ago. I wish I could remember where I got those faces becasue they had all the gear that the Apollo astronauts had from the helmet mics to the cap headphones. That did save a lot of time but all the other equipment, helmets, life support backpacks etc where created using booleans objects in Bryce. The biggest headach you will have is articulating those little boolean people to give them a natural pose so they don't look so stiff (especially the hands and fingers). Depending on the scene and what those little guys are doing can take up a lot of time so be prepaired for a lot of test rendering to get these guys just right. PATIENTS is the KEY WORD here, good luck and I hope that what I have said helps. If you like, you can go to my website or just visit my gallery here to see the astronauts that I am refering to.
Good luck as I hope that what I said has helped.
Cheers,
David
