I have been using poser for more than a year and I want to start making my own clothes? What tools do I need? I own Poser 5. Can I do with just that? Thanks in advance, Khelben

I would be very intrested in this as well. I have a copy of 3ds Max 5, True Space 4, Photoshop and Vue. Anybody know where we can find a good clothing making tutorial? Thank you. Mako.

Unless you only intend to modify existing clothing by means of morphs, textures, and transmaps, you're probably going to need a 3D modeling program. These can range from expensive, professional applications like Max, Maya, and Lightwave, to mid-level apps like trueSpace, to simple freeware/shareware apps like MilkShape, Wings 3D, and Anim8or.
PhilC sells a highly-recommended tutorial CD that will walk you through every step of the clothes-making process (both conforming and dynamic clothing). He uses trueSpace in his examples.

Hey Don't forget Rhino 2.0 it's also a good modeling program.
Ask me a question, and I'll give you an answer.
