I have been using Hash for about 6 months now; it's an excellent program, but a
bit difficult for polygon based modelers to adapt to (I'm a 3DStudion/Lightwave
user by experience). Basically, you have to throw out everything you've learned
about modeling from Lightwave and start with a "splin-based" mindset. =) As
well, Hash has a lot of "unique" animation tools that require some new learning.
IT IS WELL WORTH THE LEARNING CURVE.
Hash's full tutorials are available at the http://www.hash.com site.
