Using a real 3D application such as 3DS Max or Lightwave, importing it via 3DXchange then into iCLone. I'm quite sure there's a butt load of videos here in the forum.

Do you need a realistic bear? A teddy bear?
There are a few in the Marketplace. Reallusion sells a "fierce animal" pack with a bear that could be characterized in 3DXchange. The mouth only opens and closes though, no fancy expressions.

If you are old enough you can get 3D Coat for $99 or the Student price is the same. Daz is free. You have to be able to make a bear though. That is where I fall short. Ken

My advice if your just starting out on this path is learn blender, it has all the tools lots of tutorials and is free. You could jump around forever trying to find the right software but in all honesty just spend your time learning one. But your not going to find a quick solution to this.

with a little patience, sculptris, and 3Dxchange 5 - you can do some pretty intense custom models with iclone characters ....i made godzilla that way out of the base characters. I think the big question is what will you consider 'good enough' - that will determine how far you need to go for your character. it could be as simple as getting a pre-made character from the shop that's good enough, or needing to learn an industrial level animation software because you need the toes to move a certain way. it sounds to me that you'd be happy with iclone, sculptris and 3dx5 though.

Ok thank you i saw your'e godzilla and liked that. Iv'e played with sculptris a little bit you said that you can object replace? I didn't know that. that would be the way to go. Am i close to being on the right path You open an avatar in 3dx5 and replace the parts with models made in sculptris as long as they stay within the restraints of the original avatar. I'm not sure how to do an object replace but that would do the job i think. At least until i learn daz. thank you for all your'e help I can't wait to try new stuff

yes, thats pretty much the process.....once in 3DX5, you export the individual part - ie upper, lower, hands face ....and 'tweak' it - as you said within the limits - ( good enough limits to do significant changes ) - then re-import it ......then the level of texture work you modify on it, is yet another level of detail...so a lot can be done in iclone without having to go anywhere else. Daz is cool too...but it has it's own flavor / style - like every other software really - the more brushes you have in your art tools collection, the more freedom you have to express your ideas to how you envision them. - don't get caught up into becoming a brush collector over an artist though - the most important thing is expressing your ideas. Master that first so your own vision is stronger than any tool you can own. Be that person that does such amazing work on an etch-a-sketch that everyone wants one!

Hi i see you can replace the mesh but it has to be the same amount of Vertices I don't know how to do that. maybe there's a vertices converter out there ?
