Quote - If your head model is not very detailed you can try UV map with Roadkill and Wings. First you should unfold face in Roadkill and later adjust in Wings.
I always had problem with details in Roadkill, then I adjust map in another software which let me manipulate not only with verticles, but with polygons or edges. UV mapper let you do it, but you cannot translate with number value. Moreover selection is difficult.
I didn't have any problems at all with the UV mapping of the head. My only problem is creating the texture for it. The pics that I used were not very detailed, they were taken with a cell phone camera. I asked my wife to take some good portrait and profile shots with our good digital camera and email them to me. So once I get those, then I will start the grueling process of mapping the texture.
I will then export SydneyG2 into wings and replace her head with my own, and then practice rigging her in Poser. I have read a lot on rigging in Poser, and I know I am going to have a few problems when I start out, since I have never done it, and I don't really know where to start.
If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
