It's very reminiscent of the artwork done for the promo of RealFlow 2.5, except
in much fuglier... sorry but those colours are plain wrong, the shading is very
dubious and and... bweurgh... and what's with this "i am 4"??? Didn't we all
pay out Alias when they had that really laim "I am" campaign? Or as Alias laid
off their marketing people SI jumped on this "great" opportunity, grabbed them
and decided to rehash exactly the same crap? Add to that that really immature
XSIvsMaya page... What's up Montreal? Something smells off... it's time XSI
kicked butt because it now can, and demonstrated its creativity and capability
to innovate... not by dumping all over their competition...

doesn't look so metabally to me-
those me-company illustrations seem hand-modeled, or maybe they really
took soft|3d for metaballing.

yes, metaballs would have been nice in 4.0, just for the sake of it so
we can all stop whining not having them. i guess softimage has some
reason not included it even in earlier versions.
