Something else I wanted to mention. I just purchased (2months ago) an app called 3D Coat, it has a really easy to use set of retopology tools great for making clothes, it also is a 3D paint app like body paint, it also can make displacement and normals maps it handles millions of poly's, and here is the rub, it has a full set of morphing brushes ect, and can also export the mesh back to its original vertex order so the mesh is good to use for morphs. All this and more for only 140.00 super deal!
I have not had time yet to really check it out yet but from what I did play with, I felt lucky to get something this great for so cheap. Also you can get the free trial to play with. just Google 3DCoat and you can find the site. I think this app may turn out to be better than Zbrush for morphs if for no other reason than the ability to export original vertex orders.
the UI is alot like blacksmith 3D and I know you Bastblack use blacksmith 3D so it may be something to check out.
cheers, Mike.
