medmon... i was sitting here thinking one day.  dangerous i know. but i was transmapping and texturing hongyu's bikini.  spent a lot of time pondering the mesh of it and figuring out how it was made.  then i went to another 3d site that sells really hi-res and realistic cars.  those cars, take the 2012 vette i was drooling over, were selling for like a hundred bucks a pop.  seeing the mesh of one of their freebies, i can see why.  the had to be pretty damned difficult to make and took some skill and artistry. and they didn't even come with textures other than the dashboards and lights and maybe the wheels if they were feeling up to it.  rest of the stuff you had to texture yourself.  then i go back to hongyu's bikini.  now... granted.. it took some skill to make and to make look nice; but, i figured if it's selling for less than 10 bucks on rendo.. then compared to that vette.. it must be pretty easy to make.  fast forward to the beginning of my attempts at modeling.. my mindset was.. with the help of a few tutes to get me off and running.. this clothing creation deal shouldn't be beyond my abilities and then i can stop altering other ppl's stuff and start making things exactly the way i want them to look.
