how do they make models for poser and daz3d anyway??

well there's the cheating way and the real one.
The cheating way for Sheeva for instance is to take two characters, overlap them then move one down so the arms come out below the other character's arms, then just texture and manipulate the top body.

the right way is to use a 3d sculpting program to actually make an "Object" that looks like Sheeva then "rig" it so poser recognizes it as a character.
But damned if i know how that works XD

aaah like so , but yea probably some 3D model program and then it's still a ton of work. Well meaby not for those who know how to use it.

hence why i'm hoping to find some XD
