				For anyone interested in painting these textures or any other paint related imagery and you have a tight budget I highly recommend that you use this free open source software: 
The Gimp http://www.gimp.org/ for paint software.
You can use it with most operating systems:

If you want to generate models please check out this software:
http://www.izware.com/nendo/ 
This software is a mini version of Mirai arguably the best polygon software available (more than 15 years of real-world, in-the-trenches development).
These are the CLONE3D image links:

Thanks!

				Great! We all love Nadia. Is it true what I heard that her breasts can be morphed to any size? [:0]

				Nendo is a really nice modeller but for those on a tight budget there is a work alike version called Wings 3D for free.
More serious modellers might wish to check out Rhino 3D. It has a lot of great features yet won't break the bank like 3DS Max or Maya.
Good points Mr. Mind.

				Nendo is only 49 dollars...! 
Though it is a cut down version of Mirai you can get pretty far. 
Rhino3D is more of a product for industrial designers... plus it's strength is as a nurbs modeler. 
I like Izware's software because I know the guys who started the company and it is an offshoot of my first professional CGI software made by the Symbolics Corporation way back in the mid 1980's.

				I've owned Nendo for several years and it was $99.00 then.
I've modeled a lot of items with Nendo, Rhino, 3DMax, TrueSpace
and many others but for character creation a polygon modeller
seems to be the preferred choice of experts.
