Ok I read through a couple of tutorials about making clothing and each one referred to using another 3d program to do so. I don't have any other programs (and poser just put a big dent in the funds). Is there any way I can make clothing items without using another program? i wanted to make some old style Japanese clothing figures.

You, can do a limited amount of modeling in Poser with primitives. However if you want to make props and clothing you need a modeling program. There are some good free modelers out there. Clothing modeling is not something you can do over night though. It takes a lot of practice. You might want to start out more simply, making thing like props. Not to discourage you. Some of the free modelers:Anim8tor,Strata3d,Blender and I think they are giving away an older version of Amapi. I'm sure there are more out there. hope this helps

Get the free Amapi. Link is in th eAmapi forum. Another really good free one is OpenFX...www.openfx.org.

And there have been a number of clothing tutorials run in the Amapi forum here. It's a very suportive crowd. And Anim8or has quite a follwing at a price that can't be beat - free. jon
