that wont take ten minutes my friend.
I can advise u tho to visit my site.
in the code section department for free db1 codes is a
free script that will render 2d bitmaps from a 3d model.
All u would have to do is make the model in 3d then render him or her out and viola instant perfect 3d looking 2d bitmaps.
give me a credit for the exporter if u use it heaps.
U can access high poly models in this fashion and since poser 3 is free around the net lately u could start with this as a introduction to create the character base shape if your not artistically inclined.
Rendering the images out this way saves tonnes of time if u have to correct or add anything to your model u just build it in 3d and runt he script again.
hope that helps
