hi everyone. i'm really new to this. I made this character the other night. My problem is really with clothing. I dont nkow too much about how to make it. Maybe someone could help me out here? I'm trying to make a Buddhist robe of sorts for her. on a side note someone let me know how this pic looks. i'm only a few weeks into using this stuff. thanks for the help in advance! :)

You might want to take a look at Royloo's stuff over at 3DCommune. He has a shaolin monk's outfit for Michael the shape of which would work for a robe for your character. I do Tibetan Buddism and they are sleeveless with a swap on one shoulder. Look up the Dalai Lama on Google and those picts should show you. Yes, the nun's wear the same things. However, historically, the robes varied, Japanese nuns wore dull kimonos and didn't shave their heads, they cut them into kind of roaring 20's bobs. This is very early. Now, all the monks and nuns seem to wear sleeveless shapeless robes with a drape on one side. In either saffron Yellow or orangeish red, or a combination of the two. White, as you know is a Death color in the East [in some places-- black seems to be the death color in Tibet] Emily

I forgot to add, you have a lovely texture there. Emily

thanks emily...ummm. i'm buddhist too. heh i know about the clothing....lol....its just doing it on the character. :) yes...no white robes. it symbolizes death. : ) I just dont know how to make them in poser. i'll check out the shoalin link..see what that guy has. metta.

oh....lol.....thanks. you snuck in as i was responding to your response, now another response. i can send you the larger version its a bit more beautiful than this small one. i'm glad you like the texture. not sure if you know any chinese but that is the JEWEL IS IN THE LOTUS. (om mani pade me hum) :)

That is very beautiful image. I've seen royloos outfit and it looks very good. Thank you for indicating it's for Mike. I didn't know that before.

He has a P4 version as well and a kind of similar type thingey-- technical term-- for Vicki and Posette. I like the line he's putting out, it's very different. Not to mention that slit in the tunic is molto sexy. I think it nearly goes to the waist. Emily

yeah its not bad at all.....but i'm confused...i'm using DAZ' s Stephanie model......what is that considered? a p4 ? or aposette? or what? this is where i get lost now........HELP!

Stephanie can fit Victoria's (Vicki's) clothing.

hmmmmmmmmmm. yeah? then what the hell did i just do......i thought i got someting for a p4 woman...thats where i'm gonna hve probs right? using p4 clothing on Stephanie? poor thing must be chilly.

The term "P4 Woman" referst to the standard poser women, which came with poser itself. Victoria and Stephanie are made with different joints for more realistic poses, so they neeed clothes with that joints too. So "for p4 woman" and "for vicky/stephanie" is not intechangable.

Posette is the nickname for the standard P4 woman. Dork is the nickname for the standard P4 man. Em

i thought dork was the standard for the idiot that doesnt know the difference between posette and p4 . :)
