It is wrong to compare Judy with V3! V3 is a high resolution figure though Judy is much lower... The posibbilities of a Figures are based on the mesh resolution. Till now only Dina and Steph Petite can be compared to V3 However V3RR is the gold solution for low resourses plus you can use everything made for original V3! As for the tools of an artist? It depends on the money you want/can to spend! I mostly use freebies and I cover most of my needs,there are many excelent free textures out there and basic clothes! If you dont have time converting textures for one figure to another buy Universal Texture Converter,excelent tool! As for clothes,P5 cloth room can be a great tool too.. If you don have time first search if what you want exists for free and if not buy it...If you don't have money make it! pitklad
