Quote - Hi together,
have seen that series also ... ok, ages ago ...
I have tried with bodysuite and some other free or bought products.
That looks pretty good! I like the bodysuit mat you have going there!

The belt is going to come separately. I want to add the belt props in there and make it so it's easier to work with. Who knows, someone may want the belt arranged differently? I don't know much about the show other than the fact I had some Dinky metal toys (S.H.A.D.O.W. for one) that I really loved as a kid. :) So, I don't know if they had ray-guns or holsters or other pieces of gear they put on the belt. Maybe there's some sort of space-suit thing they had where the belt might get in the way?
The mesh will be done in a few days, as I have time to work on it. The bodysuit mat might take a couple more, depending on how difficult it is to get the right effect. It shouldn't be too hard but getting it to render "just right" could be a pain. I definitely don't plan on doing a full-body mesh so going with a texture map and transparency (so it can be overlaid on any V4 skin) is my best shot. But, with your work on the bodysuit texture and my mesh, between the two of us we're certain to have something serviceable to offer!
I haven't decided whether or not to do the boots. I may take a stab at it and just include them for anyone who wants something to work with regardless of how bad it is. :)
