Sounds like a plan. M4 stuff is probably still in high demand. There seems to be an interest in L'Homme stuff.

I've been working on La Femme quite a bit, there's things I like about the figure more than V4 from a morphing stand point and there's things that I don't like. I could elaborate at length but nah. Critiques of La Femme and L'Homme are scarce. I think most people that don't like the figures have been silent just because, well, if you can't say something nice ( silence ) and things have been ugly in the past with new figure bashing. In general there's a feeling that Poserdom is circling it's wagons.

As far as products? There's some nice stuff, seems like a lot less. Genesis definitely gets the lions share. I'll be blunt and say that a lot of the things I'm seeing for LF LH are plain butt ugly. Baked in specular, ugly morphs, but I'll zip it up because why bother with trash talking... I think it's just growing pains as a new wave of artists comes of age with a new figure. And a relaxing of talent standards simply because all the talent has gone elsewhere. What really concerns me is that LF and LH are just like all the rest of the Poser flagship figures, no longevity. Time will tell. As a Poser user who likes to tinker more than render I'm not overly concerned, I'm sure the software will be around for a while more. Even if development were to cease tomorrow there would still be a legion of diehard users for years to come. Take Carrara, Bryce, and Hexagon as examples.

All very wise, I think.

I know what you mean about the temporariness of the Poser people. I thought Simon was great...
