Well, for a newbie, you're off to a fantasmic start. Great image. 1 you can use channels, like in this screen shot. Notice that A and B are in different locations on the button bars. Experiment. 2. Use the skylab for fog and postwork the wind stuff. 3. Poser 4 can be bought on www.daz3d.com for about $200 or so and it comes with a 'voucher' for a $30 discount on the daz models. Its a great program. You don't need pro pack. You can upgrade to Poser 5 for about $180 but I don't recommend that at this stage. Get used to P4 first. Do some research. Look at the price of P4 at www.curiouslabs.com and look at the price here. You might even look at www.ebay.com but be careful about what they are selling (some good deals on unopened boxes, some rip offs on used and registered stuff). Good luck and hope to see more of your stuff.
