I'm certainly wouldn't say Im transitioning to Modo, but I totally believe in their dedication and vision and Brad has to be one of if not THE most communicative leaders and that counts for a lot in my book. They listen and react properly and are forward thinking. Modo currently lacks hugely compared to Softimage for the work I do, but I was using it as a renderer before moving to Arnold. I enjoyed Modo rendering, to be honest, but nothing could compete with Arnold directly in Xsi. I do feel like the time is coming when modo is going to get more interesting to animators and riggers, but for me I think it's a way off. I need ice too much. Anyway. I'm upgrading my modo licence , if mainly so I can get mesh fusion, but also because who knows? If they are going interesting places in the future, I don't want to be completely rusty. Oh and the renderer is better at interiors than Arnold and a lot cheaper to run so I may reintroduce it for the odd job.
