WOW! I don't know how gals can do those kind of poses in real life, and I have enough problems just tweaking poses I've purchased from someone who knows how to do character poses, to even "think" about creating my own from scratch.

Keep up the good work Mininessie. :)

an ask please! someone knows how to avoid pokethrough in poser? i only know how to do it in Daz


The best way I have found these days is to use the morph tool, it is the pointing hand in the editing tools list. Launch this and then click the create on the top tab. From there you want 'tighten fit' which is the fist item on the bottom row of actions, shown as a dot with four arrows pointing inwards. A panel will open up with the leotard selected in preview you select the goal, in this case Dawn. Poke through margin sets how far you want the clothes to be away from the goal, I would start with 0.0002 for something like this. Radius and Margin just select the size of the brush and how far the mesh will move each stroke.

If the leotard is selected correctly you will now see the mesh turn to black lines and the tool will show a circle with the weight map type colouring, red in the middle, orange, yellow and green showing areas most affected from the middle out. Now just run the tool over any area there is poke through, I normally start from the middle of the exposed area and work out. If the end result is a bit bumpy you can use smooth selection in this tool (iron icon) to smooth it out.

I hope that makes sense and is some help to you.
