The thing about 3D is that it is d"#Īmn difficult to learn! And software with more options and possibilities is always harder to learn. No matter workflow.
Chuckle.. My friend could hardly be called a non-pro. He's an established traditional artist and a non-digital animator (for lack of a better term). I've been trying to convince him to open his own website and show his stuff on the net. He declines saying unscrupulous people might get ideas and shatter the uniqueness of his art. He was able to master Wings3d and he's on his way to becoming a Hexagon expert taking advantage of Hex 2's advanced organic features. Soon I'm going to see his models rendered and animated in Carrara.

Okay, assuming that there is this great divide between pros and non-pros. Aren't you guys doing any math at all? Fact is non-pros far outnumber pros. A third-party developer of a parametric solid modeling app once said that beginners are the lifeblood of any software company. Without them you'd soon be out of business. If Carrara 6 happens to come out strong, XSI would soon be out of business. They'd better do something about its ridiculous interface/workflow. Yeah, that's how fragile the situation is for these vintage apps.
