Thanks Rickei. I have noticed certain similarities in the programs. I just downloded DAZ/Studio and Blender. I will give them a try. I have not been able to find Bryce 5.5 as a free download but the new version wouldn't break the bank and I may get that. Carrera looks very promising but I'm going to hold off spending that much for now. Mudbox looks great but it's PC only.

At this point I may be better off putting some money into upgrading my computer. I have a pc laptop but I prefer my Mac. It's an older G4, dual 800, 640 megs RAM, a 40 gig HD with 20gigs on an external drive. I'm sure my graphics card should be upgraded. Any suggestions along the hardware front for running these kinds of programs?
