I didn't think I'd be able to say it, but it looks like this one has beaten zBrush, for most complicated looking interface, evah!

Still, for something free, it's pretty impressive.

Those sample models are crazy, that guys face, it's smearing!

True, even i have to admit the gui of the app is nasty. But its still an early version of the app, maybe some polycounters should give the makers some feedback for the gui.

Kraftwerk has a very good point - people should try it out, and if it's powerful enough to do what they want it to do, go and talk to the developers - I'm sure they'd be happy to hear from good modellers with suggestions of how to improve the program for usage.

I think almost noone here has Linux installed...

Well, there's a Windows version in the works, it seems. We'll just have to wait before we can try it and give feedback :P

I've tried using it several times. I thought I was getting the Windows version, but it simply will not install. Even with GTK.

I mistook 'binary' for 'windows binary' at first too, since you don't usually see (or notice?) pre-compiled linux binaries unlabled as to what they're compiled for (Ie. .rpm's, debian...), but alas:

Some frequently asked (and answered) questions:
Q: Is there, or will there be, a Windows version?
A: There isn't one yet, but it would be nice if there was. See Windows Development for more information
