Mike, <<1.0 of the MetaReyes product is $500, but 2.0 will be coming out within weeks>> I assume that v2.0 is the same price because the upgrade from 1.0 for registered users is free. <<Skin uses the concept of sliced objects>> true, but you can also use one mesh to define the skin object – I created various morph positions of the 'skin head' i did, and it worked great. the mesh is in lib #1. << using the Smooth routine (which comes with Bones Pro) for a similar approach to MetaBalls>> Smooth works beautifully with a metaball-generated mesh, I used the two routines in conjunction to create my Face Hugger. -Kyle
