I know this is a stupid noob question, but i really want to know how the Pros make poser models - figures and props.
I am dangerous enough to get most clothing and hair conformed to figures, which took me quite a while to learn. ^_^
Now I would like to know how the real pros make characters, clothing and props.
As far as i understand Poser you can not model stuff in poser, you import meshes made with other 3D programs, right? At least i havent found the secret "model" button in Poser (Still using Poser 5 though).
So how are these made? How did they make these great models like Victoria, Michael and so?
Are these modeled in 3D Studio max or maya, then imported to poser? Do people make these from scratch or do you start with the P4 skeleton or so?
Even if i import an object into poser i dont know how to tell poser like "This is the head, this the neck" and so on.
How do you make a model like a knights armour as clothing? Or just a simple T-Shirt?
I have found many tutorials but only about topics i wasn't really looking for, like how to pose a char, how to edit face expressions and so on.
Maybe someone can tell me how the good models are made, or is it a secret? And if some exist, then please recommend some tutorials. I reaqlly wanna know if i got what it takes to make some really neat Poser props (Figures will probably be too hard to do i guess).
If i get something nice done, I will post some freebies. ^_^ Thanks in advance if you can give a reply to any of my many questions!!!
