Creating complex outfits in Daz Studio requires extra levels of knowledge and experience. It isn't easy to find a "How to" guide on creating good quality long dresses, full length skirts, long sleeved or multi-layered outfits.

This five part tutorial series creates these types of outfits in detail. It shows you in step by step fashion. In addition there's tuition on creating matching jewellery to boot!

In this first part we take you right the way through from early design considerations to step by step work in polygon/box modelling.

Used in this tutorial: Daz Studio 4.9 Pro and Hexagon for modelling.

Presented by Arki (Kim Schneider) who has been a long term vendor of complex garments at the Daz 3D store and previously at Runtime DNA.
