This stuff is modeled in Hexagon, and rendered in Modo.....

Those are very nice. One question though. Why not just model stuff in Modo? Personal preference?

Yes indeed. A long while ago he was using Amapi. Hexagon was the natural transition after Amapi, with numerous tools and features similar. I guess once you learn a tool that does well for what you need, once you have a good workflow, there's no need to re-invent the wheel. So he still uses Hexagon for modeling new characters/critters/props, and renders in Modo. The end product goes to large printers for vinyl decals. These are mainly made for vinyl stickers.
