I have male and female Kendo and martial arts uniforms but I'm unfamiliar with exactly what a budo outfit would look like. Do you have a picture?

thanks, the outfit im looking for is the kendo outfit. i searched ur site but couldnt find it. i went to Free Stuff> Archives but clouldnt find anything related to Kendo or martial art outfit. can u tell me again?

you can try piecing one together with objects from freestuff and your own textures.

Phil's Kendo/Martial set isn't a freebie so you'll need to check his non freebie section. It's quite a nice set though. Has both M3 and V3 versions for "standard" martial arts clothing as well as Kendo gear.

Budo and Kendo outfits are basically identical. The "wardrobe" is a gi (top and bottom), obi, and hakama pants. Wear one every week for Iaido practice. The difference is that Kendo also has protective armor reminiscent of the yoroi worn by Samurai. PhilC's is very well done and worth the reasonable cost! :)

You can see hakima pants, etc. with textures at http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=504608&Start=1&Artist=Ethesis&ByArtist=Yes The real problem is getting good bottoms for women. Too many are just skin tights, not traditional looking at all (the one in my image is not a traditional texture, but ...). I couldn't find good hakima pants for a female figure and finally gave up on the quest. http://market.renderosity.com/softgood.ez?Who=communion is where I got the male outfit. I'll have to look at Phil's

Phil's are V3/M2 -- but the hakima pants are not bifurcated. On the other hand, it is a complete kendo uniform, with Shia, and very nicely done. http://istore.mikrotec.com/philc/index1.html?page=catalog&trackerid=1881228683&category=a&vid=795014998&pid=1264876215&oldvid=2143420604

Thanks. Yes I used some artistic licence on the hakima. If I had modeled it bifurcated it would be almost impossible to stop the mesh from intersecting resulting in ugly lines. I hence opted for a flowing "skirt" with multiple folds. The visual effect in all but the most extreme poses will I feel me quite adequate.

And believe me, PhilC, it is difficult to keep them from "intersecting" in real life as well! :0) When going into seiza (kneeling position), one must swipe the inside of each hakama leg back and out to avoid all sorts of entanglement. One thing that I cannot tell from your hakama is whether it has the 2/3 pleats on the front. These pleats, 3 on the right and 2 on the left, represent five virtues.

Although I have never undertaken any martial arts training I was very mindful that the traditions and spirit of the sport should be respected. I do not claim to be totally accurate in every respect. My research naturally found variations in styles. At the time I did receive excellent input from some very knowledgeable folks for which I was most grateful. I incorporated their suggestions into the design. So yes it does have the five folds.

Very cool! A person who knows how to research! :0) Now I'll have to put my money where my typing fingers are and purchase this product from you. If you know me, anything Japanese is of interest to me, so...
