You will need to use a modeller such as 3DWings or ppmodler. Sorry I cant give
any help on this choice.

If you use 3Dwin to convert the skulls it will separate the component parts.
IIRC earlier versions of PoseRay did this as well, but they only imported obj
files. This messing around is the price we have to pay for not buying commercial
products.
I use both 3DWin and PoseRay as they have different properties that complement
each other. BTW 3DWin is shareware and the demo version does not export
materials. Since the meshes do not come with any this should not be a problem in
this case.
