If I might take the original question one step further. What are the chances for a successful animation in taking CL or Daz millenium figures into a program like MotionBuilder (or a major 3d app) and installing a new bone rig and skinning? Having spent nearly half a day in C4d doing an eyesocket in hypernurbs with point to mesh, the idea of modeling an entire realistic figure is proving a little daunting. (This isn't a defamation of the program, but an indication of my own inexperience:) One other apparent advantage that Poser has is the possiblity of a varied wardrobe, hair, and accessories ( proprietary or 3rd party) which can be readily changed and adapted. manowar
