Do you all remember why Poser was created? To help the traditional artist draw correct figures, right? I know we have gone well beyond that with the program nowadays. However, my mom is an artist. She loves to paint. When I was showing her what I could do with Poser, she got excited about being able to pose the human and animal figures to see just how that hand really looks from different views. Especially viewed up close. So we started looking at the different versions of Poser available. I'm looking for your experiences with the different versions to use as an electronic artists mannequin. Some considerations: She really liked the completeness of the millenium figures. For example the bone structure showing better in the hands. We looked at Poser Artist. Only $109. She was comfotable with that price, but will it do well with the Mil figures? On the other hand with the changes in Poser 6 comming out, would it be better? Although she thought $250 was a little steep. What do you think?

might be better to ask this in poser forum. this is forum for 3d studio max.

Yea, sorry about that. I was in the poser forum. Somehow this crossposted into the 3DS forum. Not really sure how that happened.
