Hey, I thought we're not allowed to talk about pirate textures and stuff in here B^)

I have a feeling there will be more new stuff more often in the PC after the one year anniversary, but I don't know if I can say why I think that, so just take my word as an armourer that there's a decent fair chance of that.

Heh. mm. heh he he heh mm he. He said 'hard'. runs even faster than geep --------------------------------------> Graham Norton

Don't worry, translated into Japanese and back through babelfish that comes out as 'Cripes, the - I as for me think that really we want concerning this, but but I desire the fact that those which you do not think that I... would like to have the Japanese person happen, can say.... as for that there is no there?'.

To add to the Anime-ish recommendations, there's a character named 'Maeve' in the RMP. It's a 'lips anime' type, but it definitely has a very cartoony/drawn look, and it's a V2 character. I picked it up because it looks elmost exactly like several of my wife's drawings. On the downside, the packaging is rather horrible, as it's loaded initially from a PZ3 file with all the lighting and pose set and such, and you have to do some work to put it in a CR2 in a default pose, and more work to transfer the actual morphs and stuff over (though that's true of all V2 morph stuff).

Status: Osode, Kote, and Kabuto morphs done (as well as some little morphs to flip up the tassels on the domaru). Also made the Wakizashi (odd, as I thought I has already made it) from the katana, and the wakizashi scabbard form the katana scabbard, which means they'll share UVs making texturing them to match a snap. And I made some tsuba and pommel shape morphs for the katana (which deltas will also be usable on the wakizashi to that kills two birds with one stone).

I think I am going to bug Daniel to get the UVs for M3 so's I can just make this a texture map and maybe an un-ribbing morph, since they go underneath everything.

Psst, since they are only black and white, GIFs would be smaller and you wouldn't have image loss.

To do list (it will be good to have this in a place that can't get coffee spilled on it):

• Sode morphs (thinner, taper bottom, taper top, bend, zaggy, curved)
• Kabuto morphs (smaller
• Katana scabbard texturing
• Wakizashi texturing
• Wakizashi scabbard texturing
• Katana Belt (wakizashi tucks into belt in the front)
• Smart-prop setting for katana, wakizashi for hand (I built them originally for M2, so there's a slight difference)
• Smart-prop setting for katana, wakizashi in scabbard
• Smart prop setting for katana scabbard, wakizashi scabbard tied/tucked in belt
• Gunsen texturing
• Smart prop setting for gunsen for hand
• Shigetou no yumi (bow) modelling
• Shigetou no yumi texturing
• Shigetou no yumi bend morphs
• Soya (Arrows) modelling and texturing
• Quarrel modelling and texturing

And the MAYBE if I have time and inclination list: - Wakibiki (L and R) modelling and texturing

• Maekusazuri (boxy leg stuff like big square haidate)
• Alternate lacing patterns (colours and actual lacing techniques)
• Alternate silk patterns
• Some MAT poses for alternate textures
• A few samurai Poses (though those aren't one of my fortes)

Heh. All within the week. Lucky I have the weapons modelled (the gunsen has posable ribbons, even!).

Only problem I'm having -- one that may dissuade me from making it -- is I am not seeing anything that indicates HOW it's worn (and I don't just want to make it up). I mean, I can see that it's strapped over the opposite shoulder like a purse in the city with a short strap, but I can't se if it goes UNDER the do or OVER the do... if it goes UNDER, it'll be hard to make, if it goes OVER it'll look like a purse. Perhaps I should just include a sketch of this thingy for people to reference when making textures if it goes under, and refer them to LIttle_Dragon for Poser-ready Tinky-Winky teletubby accessories otherwise B^) J/K I think I should get my ass to work on the scabbard stuff and get the original scope completed, then decide if I want to add a prt I don't know enough about.

Just out of curiosity -- and as a merchant I can ask this question from an informed basis... Why would you wever want to delete something? Even if it were to go into the loft or warehouse or whatever, you're not paying anything to be selling it. Only reasons I can see ever to remov something from sale permanently are to upgrade it or to move it to some other site and make it exclusive there. If it's on so many people's wishlists, don't delete it. Let them buy it or put it on sale so they are prompted to move on it.

For the $20 range it's going to be a great deal HEY! I said don't quote me on that, and there you go quoting me B^) With DAZ stuff we brokers don't just set a price. We set a price and Daniel says 'how about higher' or 'how about lower', and we add a few dollars or subtract a few dollars, and so on until we get to the price he was thinking B^) I was just guessing the $20 range because most clothing sets are about that. But I'm hoping it is a great value even if it gets upped to $30 or something, and of course if it goes down to $15 then I spose it'll be an even better value. Okay, I go shut up now and work.

And all the ticklish samurai have already committed seppuku.
