Its encouraging to hear from someone doing the same journey in reverse. You obviously know of the difficulty of approaching something thats simple in one format but completely baffling in another. In DS I can simply do whatever I want, so as an example, I put together this image in about 10mins and rendered it in iRay, which took about an hour. To explain my machine does not have Nvidia graphics and could fight its way out of a wet paper bag, so the actual rendering time could be reduced hugely if I spent about a million pounds. One day, maybe I can do something this acceptable in superbly with Poser, I can but hope...
