Can anyone point me to a start to finish tutorial about clothing creation?

Hi. I have decided than in 2018 I would like to build a set of clothing, in order to learn how it is done. I have hexagon, 2.5, blender, adobe cc, and zebrush. Can someone point me to a tutorial? Free would be great, but paid would be ok too.

Thank you!

Funny you should ask .. I wrote this a while back now.

"How to Make Clothing for Poser: a step by step guide". It goes from sketch all the way through to packing and making revisions, with a bunch of chapters on additional subjects like weightmaps, fur trim, props, dynamic clothing and so on. The modeling section was deliberately written to be approachable in any box modeler type program (like Blender). Some chapters were repeated (like uvmapping) to cover differrent types of uvmappers.

For DS content creators you will need to swap in tutorials on DS specific file formats, and processes: Such as DS rigging and morphing, DS shader settings, and DS specific content saving and packing. But it should give you a good structure and overview to start with, as well as a bucnh of conceptual things that are unique to clothing creation.

I suppose I should rewrite for DS one of these days.
