    In principle, yes - aside from HD morphs, which you wouldn't want for toons anyway I would think, all the tools you need to set up content in DS are prt of the applications. However, you would need other applications (modellers for creating now models, possibly sculpting applications for morph creation, image editor for texture creation). There are free options (Hexagon or Blender, Sculptris, GIMP) for those parts of the process, but most peole find it preferrable to use add-on content for at least part of the process. You can of course check the Freebies forum here to see what others have created and shared.

    aha i got it .. so right now am using maya and zbrush .. am very good using them .. so i can make a base model there and import it to daz so i can start using that sliders to start changing the shape there like it's a base model installed with the program ?

    No.... You'd have to import the base model (G8 for example) into ZBrush or Maya, create your morphs there, reimport them into DAZ Studio, use the "Create morph" funtion to create a morph that then has a slider if you tell it that it needs a slider.

    EDIT: IF you create an original character, then you'd still have to go through the "Morph creation" stage, as far as I remember.

    You could make a completely new model, but then you would have to rig it in Daz Studio to turn it into a figure.

    In general you need to do the rigging in the application in which you will be using the content I'm afraid.
