Hi John, Thanks for the response. No, they don't use Poser. I am fairly intermidate with Poser. So AM shouldn't be a problem. Been through some of the tutorials. Here is a link to some of my work. The Horespower Ads were hired to do the owner. Look for the Harrelson Ford spots. www.vogelproductions.com/twc.htm

I was looking to replace Poser with A:M. If the boss doesn't order it, I will.

We have one client that just doesn't look good on camera. So the Caricature is perfect.

Sure is. You can use decals to get it done. I would imagine you'll want to set up a custom system where you can grab a photo and bring it in on demand. Depending on the level of quality you are after you may or may not need to touch up the decal in a graphics program like GIMP or Photoshop. There are models on the Extra DVD that comes with A:M where you could add your faces to the existing decal and then deform the model to the desired caricature. For absolute best quality in your model (especially for animation) you'll want to just model and decal your caricature from scratch. In any case A:M gives you the tools to do the job. AWESOME! Thanks Rodney! Really appreciate that fast feedback!

Hi all, I am thinking about buying AM. Love what I see so far. I have been using POSER and from the looks of things AM is much faster and better at everything. Hand down! I am most interested in taking client's faces and sticking them in Caricature 3D commericals. Here is an example. http://www.horsepowerads.com/ In Poser there is a feature that allows you to take a front photo and side photo and the program will map them into a new face for your model. Is there a feature like that in AM? Thanks for the help! GREAT forum too! -TV
