I'm blown away with the possibilities, that's why Carrara caught my eye. I plan on buying it next month. Still new to Poser but not new to MetaC stuff. I find poser to be very easy to use and am digging into the heirarchy editor and cr2 files already. Interesting thing is that you can add bones in the Poser Pro Pack to existing models. The compatability of C2 to Poser/Bryce is outstanding and short of any serious disaster reports, I've settled on C2 for my first purchase modeler. The freebies like Metasequoia are great but limited and its time to get with the program.
