Terragen, I haven't tried it, but I've seen people create nice things with it. Bryce is nice, but it's nowhere close to Vue. Bryce is a bit outdated, while it has nice features, it shows it age. To master Bryce you need a lot of skills and effort, I've only see few people do outstanding stuff with Bryce.

Artwork and 3DToons items, create the perfect place for you toon and other figures!

Due to the childish TOS changes, I'm not allowed to link to my other products outside of Rendo anymore :(
