I do a lot of duo poses in which one character is wrestling with another. I know about collision detection, etc. What I'm wondering is if there is any way to make one character "solid" so that the other character's limbs could touch but not penetrate the first character. I'm probably just dreaming, but that would make things a good deal easier.

I know I can change the display of character parts, or even an entire character, to wireframe, outline, and so forth. And, of course, I can use various cameras and angles to guide me in posing. 

Have I not noticed or realized something? Is there a quicker way to do duel-character poses?
