well the figure just bloomed in front of me as i was creating it. I was trying to regain the feather effects i did in toxica II when i decided to make a figure out of it. In fact the whole figure is made up of just one little ball. A lot of deform lol.
3ds max 6 jan, not bryce lol. Well you should check out bryce. Its easy to learn and creates some of the most smooth and shiny renders there is. For the more complex scene i would recomend Cinema 4d or 3ds max
well, DANG! lol, weird word , its worth it, if you'd like to create 3d, i guess those progs i've listed is the most used ones, bryce is the most easy one. 3ds perhaps the hardest.
But hell jan, come on, id like to see you do some 3d
