Dunno if anyone's still reading this thread, but I hit too many dead ends in my search so I've taken another tack and have taken a couple of Uzilite's packages and tried my hand at trans/tex mapping them into something that looks right. Comments are welcome. Now I need to work on the hair. I've got the Charleston hair and am trying to tweak it in Anim8or, but it's a painful process. if anyone has any suggestions for a more friendly tool for morphing/deforming an existing mesh I'm all ears.

BTW, the white flecks are just artifacts I haven't cleaned up in my trans maps yet.
