I model in Lightwave 9.6 and just downloaded the newest version of Silo. I have found that I really like Silo and plan on doing all of my modeling with it for now. I am currently considering buying 3d-coat and would really appreciate any input you have about it, good and bad. Any input you have on other comparable programs would also be appreciated.

For the purpose of this question, let’s assume that I have just created a dress and a chair in Silo. I plan to use them in Poser.  I am not particularly happy with the polygon layout I have come up with for either the dress or the chair. I would like to use 3d-coat to improve the layout of the polygons with Retopo and then UV map and texture both objects. Is this feasible and what has your experience been with 3D-coat.

I would like to thank you in advance for your help.
