This is Glamorous Vickie, figure about 98% done. In spite of the high polygon count, I found the mesh easy to work with, unlike Dina's, which sort of drove me crazy (short drive, maybe). A lot of the extra polygons are in the head, which I didn't touch, though. I think her feet came out especially nice, and as V3 already has the nicest hands (IMHO) of any figure the other end sort of matches now! ;-) Here hands and head are the parts with by far the biggest changes from V1. Only thing I did on her hands was scale them a little thiner, her head is also scaled bigger and proportionally thinner- I think 102% in scale and 105% in Y is what I'm going to use for the head. Her bikini is probably going to requre some JCM, too, to work properrly. I think it came out pretty nice, though.

Keerist, Jim - your work always looks so damn solid and realistic. It's a great job

She looks great Jim.

She looks excellent Jim! As your figures always do. (I have SMMV and PU Steph of course) A few opinions in case you're interested :o) a) Upper arms look a bit skinny in relation to rest of (very) well trained body b) Butt is a bit flat c) Tummy/lower ribcage very flat and hard looking. Extreme def. Love those slender ankles! Yummy! :] Fish

Yup - she DOES look very glamorous! :-) -dg

Thanks guys. Yeah, the arms do look a tad thin here, they started out as Stephanie thin (and she does have pretty thin arms), I've already bulked them up, they might need a tad more. That is why I said 98%! Here is the dress that I'm finishing for her, still just a prop now(I wanted to see what the edges looked like.) Notice her arms don't look to thin here (the dress is skin-tight), maybe it is just the angle above. The keyhole is going to be optional, incidently.

That looks fantastic, Jim. Just curious, will there be morphs so the garment fits both your character and stock V3?

The clothing that comes with the figure will be for her only, but when I start doing V3 clothing I'll probably do it like I'm doing my current Vickie stuff, a version for her, with her morphs, a version for the stock figure with the same morphs and the more popular stock figure morphs too. I do separate OBJ files for each, that way there is no built in overhead to get the clothing to the figure it is for. Here is the dress at the very, very first stage of conforming. I think I'm going to have an optional lower section too, to make it really short, as well as this length. There is a suprise in the back, too. ;-)

Low-V-cut peek-a-boo back? we hopes

She's great.... I love all your stuff.... I like hi fashion Vickie as you can give her a normal vickie face... I just bought the Exotica set for SMV! One of the best sets i have ever bought. And PUS is just gorgeos. I like the fact that it looks as if you are taking full advantage of V3's curves, and making her less skinny than smv.. I do like SMV but she's a tad skinny, mind you she is supposed to be a supermodel so i guess that ok... lol This figure looks like she's going to be one of my fav's... Thanks Jim you do an awsome job.... ;) She's looking very Ab Fab so far!! -=SimderZ=- PS... does anyone know if anyone is making actual stockings for V3... I love Billy's Lingerie, but try as i might i can't get the stockings or Bra to fit even with the tailor... x-x-x-x-x

Thanks SimderZ! I don't think your going to get really good fit on any V2 clothing, to tell the truth. It isn't just the different joint parameters and centers, there is also the JCMs that make her pose so nicely, clothing is going to have to have matching JCMs. I pity anybody that makes clothing that dosn't know about doing Joint Controled Morphs!
