The result looks half-decent (and could probably be much better if made by person with actual talent as opposed to, well, me), but the mesh is unnecessarily complicated. All in all it could be useable if you know what you're doing. I'm going to stop experimenting with it for now.
Wow, thanks, I didn't expect this much interest! Actually, the final mesh looked a bit clumsy to me as well, so I was already planning on trying another approach. But I kind of liked the spiky look, and I wanted to give it it's fifteen seconds of fame before scrapping it.
Thanks for pointing me towards MakeClothes, I hadn't even thought as far as making clothes and hair interchangeable between different characters. I'll give it a try!
