I really like that wood texture! You did a really nice job of it!

Thank you! When I fire the puter up again I think I'll use a less copper shader for metal, a bronze would be better. I keep looking at the bright metal and going "hmmmm".

Cool! I really like seeing what other people do with my stuff.

In other news, I am attempting one more shot at the tunic before I give up on it and just release the parts that do work as an outfit for Dawn. The boots are really, really cool. I was very lucky in that they look just like the real thing, except there is no lace in the back.

The tunic is a pain. Poser doesn't like layered clothing in cloth sims. If I rig it I may have better luck. I can do a hybrid where the bottom parts are dynamic so they look more natural. I guess I could put bones in them for posing, but I've seen capes that do that and they look not-so-good. I will give it one last shot, then I will give it up. I like the rest of the outfit, so I'll rig those and then put it on ShareCG and here.

Rokket, I've seen a lot of items released as hybrids in the past, and I suspect that what you describe might be part of the reason.

Regardless of which way you go with the outfit, it does look nice. I think you've done some really great work on it.

3-4 hours?! Sheesh, if I don't get a good 9-10 I'm not fit to speak to, coffee or no coffee! And this time I'm going. Night.
