Hi ToLou, If you want to make your own models, Poser isn't a modeling program. Some nice stuff can be made in Bryce, but that isn't really a modeling program either. For modeling, you'll want to look to Ray Dream/Carrara, Strata 3D, Truespace, Lightwave, Cinema 4D, Amorphium, Amapi, 3ds Max, Maya... There are also some freeware modelers around, like Blender, Anim8or and others. Check the 3D Applications forum for more specifics. Most of the upper modeling programs also contain animation elements, so it's possible you'll be able to find one program to do it all for you. Or you might make models in one, then animate them in A:M. Lots of possibilities. :) Varian
