I know there's a few tips and tricks, but I'm not adept enough to get into editing cr2 files and stuff like that. I like a straight import of the obj and then set up parent/child relations in the heir editor, then save the figure. With so many parts, (this Cthulhu has about 100 pieces) it gets very time consuming. It's hard to stay focused, you just want to get the figure done. :) davo
