Re: Skin Texturing
-----------------------------------
For a while :mmmh:  I've been thinking that P4 figures need good textures, similar to M3/V3's. 

I know there's the Vicky Buster texture for P4F, & a PosetteV3wwg version which can use V3's textures (hi-res or standard, I'm not sure)... but I think P4 figures need their own set, including P4 children :binky2: . 

I'm not sure, but I think that it's ahjah's morph I came across for an African ethnic face for Posette (I think I saw it in Anywoman & Neaena as well), & when I first dialled it I thought "Wow, this African morph is so cool :clap: ! Thank's ahjah :thumbup: ! Awesome, I've always wanted an ethnic morph for P4 which improved on the base African character packaged with Poser 4 Pro Pack :yeah: !" 

Then I realised, what's needed in addition to this lovely African morph is a realistic ethnic texture :icescream: . 

I searched for some books on 3D texturing which I'd like to go through on my learning journey :pottytrain4:  & I hope I'll be able to make realistic textures like some of my more talented & experienced counterparts.

I don't understand shaders yet (not their purpose nor how they function). 

But some of the pictures in the gallery have really cool textures & bump maps & I'd like to produce some of own like that :einstein: .
