Thanks for the quick responses!

I'm not denying that the economy has taken a bite out of everything, but it's been in the toilet for the past decade while the downturn in the 3D hobbyist market seems to have suddenly come on. Sometimes I wonder if Poser and Daz  Studio have become too complicated for their own good...

Another thing that's been holding me back is that I haven't touched Poser in years. Converting models made in Max to something that's Poser-friendly is turning out to be quite a bit more work than I anticipated. I did put a post in the Jobs Forum, asking for a potential partner to handle the Poser side of things, but I only received one response and that was over a month ago.

On the positive side, I am seeing an opening here for architectural models; most of the really, really good stuff seems to be over at DAZ. (Stonemason, Ness, etc.)

I'm seriously considering putting out my first release as a freebie, just to get some feedback as to what everybody's looking for in detailed set-pieces. Do you guys think that's a wise idea, or should I just send it out to a few select friends for review?
