Hi,

I'm a bit sorry Michael, I didn't want to say anything about how I would approach the problem and influence anyone by doing so. Basically, I would approach this kind of work by a divide and conquer strategy. By this I mean I would break the model apart and of course I would use Moi for all non-organic work a bit like you suggested here. Until recently, I would have said that I would have tried to create the rough shape of each element of the model most likely in Moi, bring it in some other app and add details there using various technique like say displacement mapping, box modeling, sub-dividing, sculpting etc.

But now, I don't see myself moving vertices around all day for weeks if not months each time and for each little item in a project. I know enough about myself, to know that I wouldn't be satisfied with my work if I where to use box modeling as my main tool, add to this that my hands aren't as steady as they use to be.

Maybe there is a way in between?

Thanks, I'm very greatful for the links, I learned a lot,
Felix
