Users will learn how to modify faces in the Face Room, the differences between modeled and dynamic hair and how and when to use them, the different types of clothing and how to work with them, and how to use the material room to create and assign different textures. Advanced topics are also covered, including how to model a basic clothing article in Shade, how to UV map and texture it, how to assign groups and materials, and how to make it work in Poser. The final section of the book deals with how to get the must out of the render, and how to use third-party programs to improve renders or composite movies.
