Making Skin Textures for G2F & G2M

I've been browsing for a while on some kind of tutorial on making skin textures for GF2 and G2M, but no luck. It seems like there is no kind of tutorial. I've found merchant resources but I'm looking for on how to make skin textures from a model reference photos.
Can anyone help?
Also I know of 3d.sk for model reference photos are there any other websites similar to that?

To make skins you need to be familiar with UV mapping. If you are not, then you should do a few searches on the Web on the subject and familiarize yourself.
Once you understand the basic principle about UV mapping you need to get the UV grid for G2F and G2M. Those should be included in the Genesis package.
Load the UV grid in Photoshop, together with your skin photos and move the bits of images in the right place.
You can also use programs like ZBrush to texture paint a reference image on a 3D model. By exporting G2F from Studio to an OBJ file you can load that model in any texture painting program.
Hope this helps.
