Mehndi: Saluda looks great! The only reason I didn't buy the model right off the bat a few weeks ago when I first saw her was because I thought that if all the Vicky morphs work on her, then the vertices count must be the same as the original (the best way out) & the collar/shoulder thing must have been altered using a morph by Jaager (available in one of his body packs?), which I already have used in a couple of Vicky variations, so it's possible I have already tried that morph. Then again, maybe Saluda uses a different one(s). But when I contacted Zygote, I referred indirectly to the morphs that were already out there & mentioned that in my view Zygote's Vicky figure was so strange in the collar/shoulder area that although morphs seem to help somewhat, morphs can't be expected to make Vicky look as good as a whole new figure or at least a major rebuilding of that area. I think that's why Steve in his response implied that Zygote may have something in the wings to correct the problem in a fundamental, polygon way, which would be included in a basic revision of the whole figure that slims Vicky down & fixes the square jaw & other things. But meanwhile, I may go ahead & buy Saluda because it looks like you guys did a great job & Zygote won't have a revised figure until next year. Thanks!
