I do my modelling mainly in Wings3D and use Bryce for texturing, lighting setup etc. You may have seen my post here before with setups that take up to 40 hours to render. I got Cinema4D a week ago and I have very mixed feelings for Bryce now. Take a look at the 2 down scaled renders of my wooden toy model below. The first one is Bryce and took 2.5 hours to render (with simulated radiosity/light dome). The 2nd is a C4D render that took 3 minutes with all kinds of options enabled. I know you can't compare them just like that but... And I'm new to that application so I don't know exactly what I have done. :) I don't know if one looks better than the other but that's not the issue here. Whoever develops the next version of Bryce really has to do something about the rendering engine and do something about the lack of hardware support instead of just adding more presets and all kind of generators. Befinning with details in the interface is surely not the way to go (Bryce 6 discussion some time ago). The full size images are accessible from here: http://www.colacola.se/show.asp?pic=6
