Thanks GKDantas! Thats great info. What you said about polygonal hair modeling kind of confused me though. Can you clarify the first two sentences? What program would be ideal to create hair and clothes on?

I understand what you mean now about the Dynamic hair. It makes sense why it wouldnt be transferable.

I have lots of questions that I want to ask I hope you dont mind. Zbrush can be used to create just about anything. but how does lets say for example. You create a shirt off of a V4 model using an extrude function, then save the object. How does that object go to be able to be easily snapped on to a V4 model in DS/Poser/Carrara as well as morphed according to the figure?

How do texture maps get created?

I have access to lynda.com (video learning site) and they have a Zbrush and Carrara essentials. Ive spent many hours going through the Carrara essentials video so I'm now somewhat comfortable in Carrara, but still feel like I've barely scratched the surface on the possibilities.

Theres a guy on here who's renders simply blow me away. Id love to create stuff like that. Blackhearted, the guy who does the Girl Next Door product. His renders are absolutely amazing. Does he sculpt the model, rig it, add morphs and map it? Or is that created using a base model through morphs available on Poser? Sorry if I'm overloading you with questions. So much to learn, so little time. Thanks again
