I just had a look at the Blacksmith series and honestly it did not look very promising at all !

Blacksmith 3D Demos

Probably would be better making new dolls from scratch rather then to convert them from older models. some of these packages presented for v4 can be very complex not just consisting of 1 texture that is applied but many side features. Second skins, eyes, lips, make up etc. Also I can not imagine that this feature would offer an optimized setup for the all new material settings needed in Poser 12

so why not bring out new stuff, new Ideas, for a all new program, with all new features. Others are capable of doing it so why not in here.
