Quote - Thanks for your replies yet again guys...
Morkonan: My main figure right now is Victoria V4.2, with Miki 2 and Terai Yuki 2 running slightly distant joint seconds... I find V4 great to use even though my current system only allows me to use one figure and basic sets in my Poser 6 workspace before the system crashes?!? Heavy poly count I guess!?!
Most of my Poser 6 crashes were due to really bad memory management on the part of Poser.. P6 just didn't seem to do a good job at working very hard. P7 isn't a whole lot better most of the time but a restart or occassional reboot seems to help clear it up a lot.
Quote - I don't as yet have a purchased catsuit/bodysuit for V4 - but I've tried using V4s body parts matted with wooly and spandex type materials, with not too good results (I'll try adding an image of my feeble tryout - but be forwarned, I am a beginner). Sci-fi Heroine Outfit aremor

That's nice! You did a good job at getting that 60's feel so don't sell yourself short. A bump/displacement map for the sort of corduroy/frilly fabric texture would complete that outfit you've already done!
I'm a beginner as well. But, I'll see if I can come up with something. It may take awhile though. I'll prob start off with doing just a second-skin type texture for the fabric part of the outfit along with suitable displacement map to get that ribbed look to the weave. Then, model the rest. But, if I'm feeling particularly adventurous, I may try a bodysuit. Warning: I enjoy 3D modelling but haven't done a lot of clothing type models. I know how though so that's not a problem. I just haven't had a lot of practice in fine-tuning for conforming to a figure. That's an art in itself.
Anyway, I'll see what I can come up with. I can't promise when/if it will be done.. but, hey... it's free.. especially if I never finish it. ;)
