Very nice Laurie! I've been trying to texture the starlet dress myself, so I know how awkward it is to do, and you've done AMAZINGLY well on these!

Thanks Cin ;-), actually I found the template and model it's self very easy to work with ... no stretch or pull anywhere, even when using the male morphs. The only trick was making sure that I copied the template onto a layer above the base layer and then turn it 45 degrees, (you will need to make the canvas size bigger to do this) .. once you are into the fitting stage just link all the layers together and turn them back 45 degrees .. copy merge this .. then paste it onto the original template and it should be fine. (not that you asked g but maybe it will help ?). The area I had problems was more to do with design and what the dresses would actually looke like , that was were Anton's help was so important, he had a lot of Egyptian textile information and I spent a long time on the phone with him picking his brain.

I'll have to try that rotating trick... that's what's been giving me fits the past few days... I think it was Anna (secretheart) that told me to rotate.. though it could've been Xena, but my brain doesn't often work, so I totally forgot about trying it when I sat down to start working on it.

I am simply overwhelmed with the whole set of Egyptian products that went up at the Platinum Club this week. These textures are so skillfully made that they give the illusion of real fabric. They LOOK like finely pleated linen. Superb work, Laurie! May I ask what textures Victoria 3 is wearing in the promo pictures? Kimberly

Laurie, these are so beautiful, so masterfully detailed, with that inimitable Laurie S touch that is pure elegance personified. As always, only one word truly qualifies - WOW!

Sparrowheart , the gal is the basic V3 texture , one of Anton's V3 makeup textures on the face(nightlife).. and I set the skin tone to #6 (in the V3 map library). The Male has the texture from Anton's V3 male morph pkg and again I set the Skin tone to #6 I think. Hope this helps.
