Well I have assigned the UV's into a map that can be easily quartered. And I have set the UV's so that the different parts have easy coordinate numbers to enter into the UV fields for Poser.

I think I am getting this second skin worked out. I dumped the idea of having it all welded and just went with a close tight skin.It covers the entire body if you wish, everything except inner orifices.

Here's a pic with just some quick nodes over just the torso and legs. The green showing through is the underlying skin. It all comes out to 33K polys with the second skin. Not low poly but not overly excessive.

Edit:  You know I didn't even know there were two more replys to this thread, I had not read. Didn't get any bots. Sorry, didn't mean to ignore anyone.

cheers.
