Oh, that looks plenty good enough.  I'm gonna have to give your method a shot.

     Yeah, each time I complete a significant step, I duplicate the model, then continue development on the dup.  That way, I can revert back to an earlier stage if I need to.

     I've mostly been working on hardware today.  I paid $900 for a refurb workstation with dual X5660 Xeons and an FX3800 Quadro  Has a Win7Pro license.  I bought six 8GB RAM sticks (max the mobo/chipset will read) and it's nearly ready to power up.  This will replace the core i7 machine (which died on me) as my number two workstation.

Poser 12, in feet.
