so which would you say is the easier program to face morph with?

hmm... easier?

well, Max compared to Maya, its hard to say...
both work on the same basic principals and generally use the same rules just with different tools and steps to apply them...
what it really comes down to is the model Itself, cause my wolf model is FAR more better built from my years of experience and is MUCH easier to face morph, and as for my dragon model, i will actually have to start the faces all over because i forgot to shape his mouth as CLOSED in the beginning so i could actually make proper morph targets XP
