Posting "Contemplation" on facebook now.

oh cool! I have to admit I have been doing more (not all) images "square" for you to be able to fit them in the limits of where you want to post/share them !:)

I got all mixed up posting that, and had to clarify it...but I'm so happy I can now use Sora... the dialing I did was really very subtle and she should pose fine, while all the clothing will now follow what I did! :)

and TAAA DAA! I DIALED Sora's body out (had to make the whole body -1.00 to negate the Sora body morph) Then I RE-DIALED Dawn's body into the Sora shapes/sizes and NOW I can have "Sora" wear anything! (and also used a tiny bit of X scaling)... Can't show her body 'naked' but it's 99.9% shaped like Sora!! But hey, where there is will there is a way!! :)

So I went to google and asked: do anime characters use guns? Seems they do, so I'm going to buy the MadGhost Sawed Off Shotgun, hope it works with the HW gun poses... all 'cause there are shot gun shells on Sora's belt....! (tried to make them invisible, but there is no belt under... I do wish there was a 'belt only' version, I love that belt!)

Cool render, Traci! Don't worry about Anime - Sora is not exactly in that style. That would be beyond Dawn's geometry scope. Nothing to worry about. ^^

A traditional Anime head is most definitely within the geometry scope of Dawn. You may remember that Sparky had at one point started creating a traditional anime character from Dawn. We didn't want to tread on her efforts and I personally like a more stylized look, so we created Sora. You may also recall that I morphed the many and varied creature heads for Dawn, Dusk and Baby Luna that are far more extreme that any traditional anime style head and body.

I was referring to traditional "flat" Anime eyes, which is not about size or shape, but structure. Aiko had big eyes, but that alone doesn't make Anime style. Disney uses big eyes, and it's not Anime. I don't think spherical eyes can produce traditional Anime style, and I have shown examples of what happens when it was tried. It requires a more flat eye structure, and Dawn can't go that way.

BTW, what happened to Sparky's project?

The spherical eyes can also take morphs to flatten just fine.

Not sure about Sparky, will have to reach out to her and see what's up.
