As many of you know, I tend to buy just about everything. I have just about all the models available, except for one. And those of you that even remotely follow my work know which ones i have. If it works, and can be adjusted I'll use it.With that said, here's my thoughts. The models that are currently available, are IMHO worth having. Each has a quailty about then and each is able to do one thing the others cannot. Each also has things that don't work so well or look all that great. And that's fine, it makes me learn more about poser, wavefront objects, 3ds files. Granted, I have only posted one image of Dina, or in my case (Erin) but that is because i do my best to get a particular model to look non-stock, that way I can say i did more than arrange flowers. but that's the challenge. Anyone can run poser and anyone can use the models as they arrive. That's why there are MT to change that, and thanks to TRAVLER for making the secrects of making them less formitable. IMHO what makes a great model is the level of support, from the vendor, to other users. The more people that try to do something with a model, the better chance for more and continued improvement. That's why there is EVE, PWFG. And as I see it, DAZ gives great support,Dcort gives great support,Jim Burton gives great support. Then there is all the users who experiment and tweak, and then share what they did. So, my point ultimatley is this. If you are a poser/bryce/LW/MAX that like to tinker and tweak and work and making a model look as good looking as you me her to be. Then Dina is a model you should seriously consider getting. for she is a sturdy model with as much potential as all the other model available. But if you are the user that will not attempt to alter a character, and expect perfection right out of the zip file or exe, thne wait for the big boss up above to get into digital rendering applications, for as far as i know only the great maker can do perfection.
