One point that needs to be looked at with making both poser and d/s versions of things for Dawn will be pricing.
Because no matter how you look at it, there will be at least twice as much work. I say "at least" because while we may be comfortable in our software of choice, to make something in a software that we are not so familiar with will be a job and a half to say the least.
So people may have to brace themself that prices for things will likely have to be decently higher to cover all the extra work....and this means the extra time in producing the work. Afterall, that is the main expense in product production. So to pay for all the extra time, the prices will be higher. It is not simply a matter of releasing a poser version for one price and a d/s version seperatly for its own price and hope that will pay off. Because there simply isnt enough people buying sets to balance that off. Plus people will (and they do all the time) complain if they have to buy the "same" set twice for different figures....and lets face it, the d/s dawn is a different figure than the poser dawn. They may have the same mesh, but the development for them will be entirely different and unique to each.
So people should start to brace themselves that the insanely low prices they may have become comfortable with may not work out so well for Dawn if they want dual support.
Just something to keep in mind.
