Zomg! I finally finished the main part of my shoe sculpty! As I wrote in my previous post, I have been experimenting with Mango's Sculptie Generator - and I am proud to say that I have made a successful sculpted prim with it! :D This is HUGE for me, because I have been wanting so badly to make shoes - and couldn't understand how to do it with outside programs. ^.^
Mango's Sculptie Generator is amazing. Like omg. I was shocked at how easy it actually was to make what I wanted to. It was incredibly time consuming though (took me 4 days - working on it non-stop), with learning experimenting on the way, but it was easy. This didn't have instructions - as I previously mentioned before - but I really only had a problem with taking the snapshot of the sculpt map. I sent a notecard to Mango, and he explained how to do it - and it worked great ^.^
I smoothed the sculpt in SculptyPaint when I finished it in-world, to get most of the jagged edges off, but I think it looks amazing for my first sculptie with this program. I am so proud of it. :D
.... Now I don't really know what I am supposed to do with it. O.o

I have been watching with interest these past two posts because I've got some things I want to make that are sculptie pieces as part of a shirt and it's sooo hard to create it out of program and then upload, test and see, try to figure out what to change, upload again, etc. This looks perfect for what I need: to create the basic mesh in world, but do fine tuning in sculpty paint.
thanks for sharing your process!! :)

Definitely - if there was one program I'd recommend (either outside SL or in-world) - its Mango's Sculptie Generator. Even though it doesn't come with instructions, as long as you watch the video, you will understand how it works.
And for the price (a little over $1000L), its fantastic. :D
Also - its good to note that if you should have questions - Mango will answer them. I couldn't figure out how to take the snapshot, and after I sent him a notecard, he responded and told me how to do it within the hour. ^.^
