Don't know what a WAG is, but there are several Poser figure measuring tools in freestuff- feet and meters, plus other measuring tools- saw them the other day, way back about 3/4 of the way in of Poser Free Stuff- then work your way back (Or start at the end and work forward...)

WAG Wild Ass Guess

Well, I know Supermodel Vickie is 36C-23-35, and 5'11" tall, because that is what size I made her- I just "assumed" the regular Vickie is about 5' 11", and and made bands of the above circumfrences and made then her fit 'em. I'd make a WAG that if Vickiw & SM Vickie are 5'11, the Posette is about 5'4", with measurments close to SMV. I would guess that regular Vickie is more like 38-29-39 or so, pretty close to a real world dress size 12. SMV would have to wear a size 8, because of her chest, but her waist and hips are smaller than a size 2. I went to a web site on supermodels to get "real" measurments, and took the liberty of taking 1" off the waist - but supermodels are probably in the 1% group, most young women aren't really built like that, and I wonder how they find clothing that fits!

Thanks Jim, But what do you mean by "made bands of the above circumfrences and mad then fit 'em?" Is that a kind of measuring tool? butch

I figured out how many 3D Max "units" the object file was high, then did the math (you remember pi and all that stuff) and made a set of toruses (tori?) (a stock donut primative in Max) that were that inside circumfrence. Then trying not to loose the length I formed them to about the cross section of the waist, chest and hips. Then I made SMV fit the toruses. Not perfectly exact. but I would guess pretty close- I don't know of any way to get an exact measurement around, none of 'em will hold still for that!
