Modo 301 to add animation

[Adam H. Stewart]

I am in the process of learning Modo 203 - it is sort of breaking my bollox but I feel that it is worth it as the models and renders is produce are pretty damn clean. I just found out through the members forum that the next version will include animation, network rendering and support of point oven animation data. It's sort of mind blowing. They have an animation of Ben Kingsley what was modelled in Modo, detailed in mudbox animated in Maya and then network rendered in modo ( 50 machines per license ) It's pretty exciting because it is a cross platform application so in theory I'd be able to render on the macs in the office.
Here's some stills I pulled from the quicktime :

Yeah I'm pretty impressed by what they did. I love Modo, and with the current Autodesk issues with updates and changing mental ray licensing schemes I think I'll have an alternative to Max/Viz that I enjoy using (finally!).
