Creating stylized/toon morphs
I posted this in the wrong section before.
I'm having trouble shaping the character's eyes in using zbrush to make them look toony like the morphs here: https://www.daz3d.com/cartoonized-for-genesis-8-male https://www.daz3d.com/cartoonized-for-genesis-8-female https://www.daz3d.com/toon-boy-and-boyish-dforce-outfit-for-genesis-8-male https://www.daz3d.com/toon-girl-and-girlish-outfit-for-genesis-8-females https://www.daz3d.com/toon-hero-for-genesis-8-male https://www.daz3d.com/toon-princess-for-genesis-8-female There were not any videos on youtube for this, so I got by with shane olson's zbrush series. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMjnnUF3eJFdf6Lyh_ZfTUJ7_zccZpgLk But I still have problems with reshaping the eyes. Would using a modeling program like hexagon for the eyes and sulpting the head make this easier?

You're on the right way by doing it via ZBrush... resize / reshape the eyeballs, irises, as well as sculpt the orbital area, GoZ back to DS as a morph, build a single head morph if you'd like to, tweak the rigging and freeze the morph, make corrective morphs for eyes related facial expressions, yada yada.
So what're the problems you have on earth ?
I dind't think to do this for some reason. I just sculpted the skin around the eyes themselves and was wondering what I was doing wrong.
Yea, on G8, it's a bit cumbersome as Eyes are not separated, so you have to sculpt them carefully and elegantly by using Mask... while it'll be easier with doing such a job on G9 as Eyes is a separate conformed figure.
Another shortcut may be: if you own some products like https://www.daz3d.com/genesis-8-female-head-morphs, you can firstly dial the Eyes related morphs (Eyes Size, Iris / Lacrimal Size, Pupils Dilate, etc. ) before GoZ. That'll help with saving some time and effort in terms of sculpting.
