Ok, here's my update. I followed BB idea, and made my own excel sheet and using vbscript,   to datalink live AH data from websites  using an HTML parser, I was able to calculate the best gem to make. there are sites that plot gem prices long term, so it is like real life commodity tracking. Flawless star emeralds were up 20% so these made the best profit. I then started buying flawless squares by buying low (hit search often) , and was making 160k per gem. I would buy enough for 4 gems worth of materials, and crafting was a click fest. In my first 8 gems, I had 1M gold profit, and while watching TV... Took about 30min. So while this works better than the lvl 20 Paragon WD farming, you gain no levels, and game progression. I am getting good gold farming MP 5 inferno, and can yield 30,000g per 5 min run till bags are full of yellow items. So it's about personal style which is better for you...but gem farming and crafting is fine, and I will continue.

One thing of mention, I am not aware of one click batch crafting.

That's excellent to hear. your method sounds methodical, and I will try the spreadsheet approach. I only have 4Mill currently, and have been flipping items just to buy better armour for my toon, and leveling up. Paragon levels are very slow, and exp goes up exponential with levels.

I play as a LVL 70 WD, and have made good profit just farming, sometimes flipping items like you. I would love to hear you ideas. I will look you up next time. I play west coast evenings US.

Actually it does not state you cannot render them using using another program for texturing- or how else are you to develop and map textures? I intend to rig them in poser and render in Octane.  Then again just a test I will not use the figure anyway going fwd besides learning. Ultimately if it ends up as a usable poser figure is important.

Textured in photoshop and zbrush, and even added the panty clothing item.

Face is not 100% since I'm trying to figure out the UV mappings you made.

Rendered in Vray. Will do rigging next and then send to octane for a final render.
