to the best of my limited knowledge, terragen won't import any kind of 3d models at this time. It's a dedicated landscape creator. It does, however, create some excellent backdrops for use in poser, bryce, etc. EricofSD... sorry, didn't mean to imply that you were calling me inferior personally. That just seems to be the general feeling of high-end app users toward those of us who are content with progs like Bryce. Not all of them, but quite a few.
