Not yet, I have remodeled characters faces and bodies along with their cloths doing this. I even have thought about using the WAVE option to animate cloth movment. I have yet to do it.. How well do most people understand the WAVE option in poser. Would a tutorial on how to use it and what is's commands mean be usefull. Thanks. Deimos.

Here's how to use waves. 1. Select object, and hit Create Wave. 2. Move that little round bubble somewhere near the thing you want to wave at. 3. Try to figure out which way is up for the wave, and discover that waves aren't big on upness. 4. Twiddle with all of the dials trying to figure out what on earth they do and discover that they are linked to a random function that had no earthly correlation with your actions. 5. After several hours of frustration arrive (by chance) at something that resembles quite closely what you want to do... if you just move it up a bit. 6. Remember step 3, just as the wave warps out of all recognition and you moved your camera so can't use undo and what was the dial you just moved anyway... 7. Select the magnet and press delete. It doesn't look to bad like that anyway.
