Guides Modeling and painting a Clothes for Daz Genesis 2 female (aka VaM model)

Hello everyone, this is my workflow on how I make my clothes.
The programs I use are
Marvelous Designer/ Clo3d
Adobe Substance Painter
Blender (for off camera retouching)
Daz 3D

Getting the Avatar
There are 2 ways to get the avatar, one is through Vam and the other is through Daz.

Using Daz is simply exporting the Genesis 2 female model, in this mode the model has more density, which is useful when using the highest physics in Marvelous Designer (but requires more resources).

The method of Vam, is exporting the OBJ and MTL, a little more detail in the wiki (Until the end explain this).

I recommend this method because you can use custom morph to make clothes, marvelous designer has an option of Load morph target, so you make a clothes with the default morph and want to make an option of Thick morphs you can export an avatar with the morph Vouluotopse (or male body), besides the genitals are present in the bodies.



Notes from the video
The Tank top is very easy to make, that's why it took me less than 3 minutes to make, I recommend to make simple clothes and then make more complicated designs, as an example my gothic corset top, it took me more time because I used another technique to create the clothes.

I wasted a lot of space in the UV, it can be fixed in Zbrush or Blender, but I like that the UVs are arranged in this way (it is easier to make custom decals without deformations).

The distance between particles I use are between 10 and 7 mm, they create a good density and do not distort the breasts, there is a post I wrote some time ago about clothes that do not make a good collision with sim and breasts.


A good tip to start, is to look for sewing patterns of x element, you can import the image and you can draw on it the design.
