odf -

I've been trying to work out a spandex morph for hip2, but I still can't seem to get rid of the camel toe effect when the thighs are bent.  I've done as you suggested this time, creating a simple morph which just pulls the inner labia area of the geometry down and, where necessary, forward.  The deltas have no X component at all: I trimmed them with a Python script.  But it still disagrees with the JCM's.

So I decided to try to create a simple catsuit from the Antonia geometry, with a smoothed hip2 as the only alteration to the base geometry.  There was, predictably, still the same problem, since I was still using my morph as the new base hip2.  Because I was working on a new figure, though, I decided to start tinkering with the bend JCM's on hip2.

That's when I noticed that part of the trouble is that the JCM's are set up for a -60 degree bend.  Beyond that, they slowly begin to distort, and by -90 degrees there's some funny stuff happening.  (Which isn't a criticism!  I think this is inevitable distortion.)  I started working on that, and ended up with what might work nicely as a second bend JCM for Antonia.

On the attached image, the current JCM's are applied on the left.  On the right, I have a second JCM which fires from -60 to -90 and which has been developed at the -90 setting.  It seems to offer some decent correction for inevitable distortion in the main bend JCM.

So I thought I'd suggest a second bend JCM for the thigh for Antonia, and see what you thought of the idea.

As far as the catsuit thing goes, man oh man.  The tiny little polys in the inner labia region are tough to clean up!  :lol:

Nudity-flagged for showing the private region of a naked wireframe mesh.  :lol:
