John, MetaREYES is available through Schreiber Instruments (800.252.1024). As far as difficulty of modeling goes, it's pretty subjective. Take a look at METAP2.JPG, NEWHUG.ZIP, and TREXMB.ZIP here in the forum – they should give you a good idea of what's possible with metaballs. Once you get a feel for metaballs, I think you can model anything with great confidence and ease, but you have to get up to that point <g>. I wish it were easier that that ?<g> I know there are some clip-models out there of various types of humans – People for People and Kinemodelz are two that come to mind. However, I don't know much more than their names – maybe someone else could jump in here? I hope this helps point you in the right direction. -Kyle
