>>What is it, exactly?
Basically, it's a spline-based freeform modeling IPAS; it's based on creating
and then deforming primatives into the shapes you want. It has a lot of
deformation tools, several levels of control points for deformations (coarse,
fine, and grafts for very detailed work). It does export meshes w/lofted
mapping coords., and it's method of doing things is very analogous to 3ds's, so
it's been easy to pick up and work with. All in all, I really like it; it works
quickly and makes organics a snap. That's a 'nutshell' description of it.

PS. Of the two pictures, CLCKWORK.JPG is the better of the two; there are a few
lighting anomolies, but they're there on purpose.
