Blender 2.8 is looking pretty cool, I've still been getting my head around the new interface and changes to the shortcuts for a bit now.

You might want to also check out the Highlight notes for Daz Studio 4.12 as there is a bit of an overhaul of the animation tools in the next version which may interest you.

One thing I will say is that Blender is a big pond and it will take you quite a while to feel comfortable with it, and it's a pretty big undertaking to make every asset from scratch so you may want to also look at porting your assets through either Poser or DS to be more efficient.

Cool video, thank you. As far as making everything in Blender- true, that's a big job, but I don't have any objection to importing objects. I know that dealing with file formats and conversions can be a headache, but that's true with every program, right? I think that animation is beyond the scope of my ambitions for now.
