Wow, this discussion keeps getting more and more interesting!

Frenchy, merci beaucoup for the links and tips! I will definitely check them out thoroughly.

Marco, I can fully understand your choice for 3D Coat. It's a powerful ZBrush competitor, and I'm keeping a close eye on it, but I've already invested a lot of $ and time in ZBrush, and last time I tried 3D Coat (a few months ago), I concluded for myself that I still prefer the feel of ZBrush sculpting. It feels more fluid and natural, it's difficult to explain in words. :) But yeah, the ZBrush UI is an odd one, with all the tiny sliders and some other quirks, such as the unusual curves. I'm really looking forward to ZBrush 4R8, which will *finally* have a standard transform gizmo, although I've gotten reasonably used to working with the Transpose tool by now.

Max, you've once again proved your creative coding talent! Thanks a lot for the cool new tool!

Have a great weekend you all,
