Two weeks? Are you a savant? LOL

I've been modeling for just over a year and I still feel like a noob ;o).

As for Marvelous Designer: while I've heard it does make nice clothes, I've also heard those clothes are more suited to dynamic cloth since it makes a Delaunay triangle mesh. That would also make it a nightmare to do the uvs. Unless of course the program itself does the uvs. I'd rather map the uvs on a model that's all quads myself ;o).
