For tda42 with the eyelash thing, if you don't want to use extra props in your scene another option would be some of the free
Posette textures at
Nod's World that have lash transmaps right on the texture map. Just set the object color for the lash to black, transparency max to 100, and use the texture map as a transmap. There are varying degrees of quality, but the best lash transmap I found is on a texture called "Ashleytex" on the above site, about three or four pages back into the textures area. Whenever I make a new texture for
Posette I just cut and paste the lash area off the Ashley texture map onto my new texture.
