I totally love M2. There is something classic about him. And, yes, he is easy to work with.
Personally, I have had no luck trying to convert textures between M2 and M3 with the UTC at Daz. I love some of my M2 textures and wanted to use them on M3, but it never worked for me.
These are the realistic textures that I love, in order:
King (link above)
Theo ( I bought mine here)
Antonio ( a wonderfully expressive character! very well done and a great package that includes poses and facila expressions - very worth it).
Wolfgang (I bought mine here. He is a unique character - a stocky guy that could be a villian or a king. Wonderful and unique character.)
and Zane
Enjoy!
