With everyone scampering for 'realism' these days, why are people stating things about non reality..fantasy, and so on? Fantasy is great, and there is some amazing work going on here with all the products, but why does that have to be the only thing out there? Ya want realism or fantasy?

Im sure there are a majority of people who would like to have regular clothes and so on for their characters.

Yes, there is definitely a void where "normal", "regular", "non fantasy", "casual but not sports/grunge" type clothing is concerned.... a void for that kind of hair as well.

Good luck trying to dress up an older figure. There are no age specific hair styles out there and a year of pleading on the various forums and in this wish list and store forum, have gone unanswered. Instead we're inundated with more updo and upsweep and glamour type styles.  As for clothing, the casual are too casual and the dressy are way over the top. There is no middle ground.

If I ever learn how to model I would concentrate on filling that void because I know in my gut that there is a demand for it.

able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
