Yes, i will definately agree with you on that Earl - learn your application's methodologies well.

Although i post an example in the Xara forum (and what a thread THAT is!), i mainly use/prefer C4D myself. That, and Rhino for model building.

Bryce was a gift, and i'm most curious about it's method of texturing - it would appear to use procedural textures by default. And image texturing as an alternative - which it too has a lot of funky limitations in doing.

UV mapping is a great concept. The only problem now is... the current 3D apps out there aren't developed enough to fully implement it's abilities. Would you agree on that?

Oh ya btw Earl... you have some very nice work on that url you posted at the Xara forum (that IS your stuff, right?). That Raptor is excellent! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
