Hi Rod,

I'm a bit confused because you're asking questions about GIRL, who is a very stylised cartoon model, but looking for realistic skin textures? Is that right?

If you're after photorealism then I would suggest buying skin sets made for V3 and just use the V3UV version of GIRL. This gives the advantage of giving you a character you can also use on a V3 model. My favourite texturers in this area are Morris, Rhiannon, ExprssnImg, Ilona, lluque and Shahara.

For hair, again everyone has their favourite merchants and styles. Personally I find the Paradise hair too recognisable, it's just been done to death for me. My favourite hair makers: kozaburo, SWAM, Quarker, Lisbeth. Neftis is also great but her hair is very highpoly and can really slow down renders.
