Im trying to make a character called Drizzt (and some others)from the Forgotten Realms books. my problem is that I cant seem to find the right type of cothing for him(medevil type clothes, cloaks scalemail etc.). I dont have any expirience in poser I just started with it and love it. I have been to just about every poser site but cant find the right stuff ,Ive dowloaded just about everything I could find. I do own 3d Studio Max r3 and Ray Dream Studio 5 but I dont have any idea how to use them to make my own stuff (but Im trying to learn)any info or help would be greatly apprieciated:)

There just aren't enough Medieval things around. All period costumes are sadly scant. I'd like to see more. Melanie

heya; there are a bunch of clothes at poserworld, as well. most clothing is 'normal/modern,' but i think some things of these can be disguised as medieval clothing with the right texture (and maybe trans) maps. for example, there's no reason a t-shirt, with maybe a lengthening morph/magnet, can't be tex-mapped as chainmail.

Bloodsong is right, nearly all my clothes that I use on my fantasy characters are just standard P4 with bump maps, textures and trans maps - see my post "Elf in Winter" a few pages back... Would love to see Drizzt when he is finished, I've been working on a dark elf too, but I can't get the skin tones right. Interested to see want you come up with. all the best, Dal

I haven't been able to make a decent drow either. Check out the image on my homepage under Members. It's is my first Poser character, but I don't like the iamge much. Drizzt would be an awesome character to make. Clothes are a problem, though. There is a Darth Maul character out there somewhere with good clothes to start with, but I couldn't get them to conform correctly. What about Guenhwyvar? Good luck!
