LOL I just found an old 3D program i had wayyyyy back when.
It's called virtual reality studio, and back in the day i thought this was the end all, be all to 3d modeling. In europe it was called 3D construction kit and is made by domark(ping!) I'll try to upload some pics later (no scanner).

Yeah the good old day's. But you have to remember that then years ago the 3D programs (if available) were top notch !

I can say for certain that 10 years in the future when we all are working with Maya X - VR we will think back to this time knowing that we had the latets Maya 4.5 with the new fluid System.... wow.... !! user added image

And did we not have some great time with our 4.5, creating new water pictures, movies...
