Quote - > Quote - ODF when you're pretty settled on the base body morph and rig/JCMs I am interested in modeling and rigging some clothing for your figure.  I know exactly what you mean about the JCMs being a brute, having just been looking into that myself.

That would be fantastic. I've seen quite a few of your preview images and was really impressed.

It's definitely a good idea, too, not to rig any conforming clothes until the JCMs are done. I just recently noticed that her pelvic floor was too low, which needed to be fixed in order to get any realistic deformation in that area.

I hope it won't be too hard to transfer those JCMs onto conforming clothes, particularly the multi-stage ones. For example, if you make a conforming bikini bottom, the shape of the crotch will have to follow the bends of the thighs, because that's what the base figure now does.

It all sounds so complicated, though I'd love to learn to model and have wanted to for years now. But coming from exclusively a 2D background I think that hinders me somehow since I don't have trouble laying objects out in 3D space, but I have trouble thinking in 3D space - where to move what vertex or face and so on. It's been really tough trying to transition.

May I ask what program you use to model with odf? I'm sure  you've been asked before. And you do the rigging in Poser itself, correct?

Boy, don't I sound like a newbie now and I've been in the Poser community forever...LOLOL.
