You can get a female model archetype_next right now but only in clear. It comes with a book for ~$40 + shipping from Japanese stores.
>>2257794I've never found 3D packages very useful. They aren't as intuitive as just having a doll. Your brainstorming and practice sessions are going to be frustrating if you spend 2 hours trying to get the mannequin into the perfect pose just because you can, which isn't even what you should be aiming to do. It would be neat if there were an device that could translate your exact hand movements into the virtual space.
