If you import a Poser figure in Carrara, it is not solid at all. If you remove a part of it (I did experiment a lot with it) that is immediately clear, the 'skin' of the figure is ultra-thin. So the hollowing is not what needs to be done. The 'add thickness' is what needs to be done to create the structure that mimics a hollow glass object. In the example you see the orignal Poser figure, imported as 2ds on the left, with a part removed on the right (no brain surgery needed as you see) and in the front a glass head with added thickness. I had to add a very small negative amount because of the small size that Carrara sees Poser. The downfall is ofcourse that you get to see all the inner parts too, like the inside of the mouth and the eye balls of DAZ figures, so might have to remove some parts in the vertex modeller (V<)before the illusion is what you want it to be. You might even get to know the VM rather good before you are satisfied with the results. But that is actually part of the fun. Good luck! P.S. You can call me 'Hoof', everyone else does and I switched to that nickname on a lot of other places..
