Interesting. Thank you! That is helpful for me. I guess I'll start by checking whether Blender's 3D painting features are good. Blender is powerful, but not always accessible, what with the weird interface and so many "secret" features that you can't find without a decoder ring.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
