Ah, it's pretty3d's hifantasy pirat ... fine, fine, that boots didn't look as long in the promo picture.
Ok, I'm in the try to do such turn-overs as morphs to existing. Thats useful time by time.
But it's not as easy as I thought cause morphs are working linear on one hand and on the other it can't be done by magnets on the fly. So it must be done in a modeller by mirroring or such. And than it's not easy to beware the number of vertices. So my last try mixed up completely in poser ... but comes time comes morph ... 👍

B.t.w. the grade of reflection should not depend on the model but more on the particular settings in the shader tree. So I see no reason why idler's fine boots should be more/better reflective than pretty3d's. :unsure:

Yeah, V4 is really a super lovely model for doing closeup's and portraits ... but she's overloaded with morphs and magnets, that also are needed in their clothings. And that's in whole is a real memory killer. In my first picture are 2 V4, 2 V3 and one P4 besides the tavern props and that's on the edge for my 2 gig memory.
So in crowded scenery I prefer mostly P4 Posette ... in the second pic are only P4 figures and thats ok with the details. Think I have to do a figure setup once with a P4 and a V4 with nearly similar body settings. So than in the distance could use P4 and for a closeup use V4 better. :rolleyes:

Hm, that latex shader is nice ... but are you sure that pirates are provided with that material ... I think cotton, wool and such materials have been more common in that times ... 😕
Ok, latex might be good against salty sea water, but under caribean sun ... not the best smelling idea ... :ohmy:

Tomorrow I will post some poses for that gun's and rowing a boat ... all P4 but no problem with a little tweaking to use them with other figures. Have to redoe their png's first ... and than I will rework that sabber and belt, so next weekend it will be finished ... :closedeyes:

As far as the moonbase outfit is concerned ... I'm looking also for that but Morkonan seems to be inactive since december 20th ... might be on holidays or perhaps overloaded with ordinary daily work ... don'T know ... let's wait and see ... :sad:
