I would like to help out if I can - I'm fairly green, but learning fast.

(You posted this in the Poser Python forum too - if there are scripts involved, I can test them on Mac OS X with P7 SR3 and P Pro SR1).

Good luck with your product! I love Aiko and I can't wait to see what it is that you have done.

Hi ray, here is the first render with you set in Carrara 6 Pro. I am using my new HDRI pack and SSS in Aiko skin.

That looks great, good job Marcelo! 😄
I think I applied Poser materials to the holster instead of an actual map, I'll whip something up for that.

Nice logo in the background. 😉

Thanks Ray.. I used some Carrara shaders here to simulate better metals, not big deal.

"Go ahead, punk, make my day..."

I finally managed to get my first render finished... I have another big render running in my Firefly queue, and it's slowing things down a bit.
There appears to be an unwelded seam along the edge of the sword. I did not untick smooth polys, so you could see it.
Will try out all the other textures tomorrow evening - it's way past my bedtime and teddy is hopping mad at me now.

I noticed something last night on the above render, but forgot to mention it... the red side boot straps are poking through the black top straps on the outside of the boots. Is that because they are intended to be alternatives, rather than being used together?

Well I checked the sword today and there are no unwelded verts there, I pulled and tugged on edges/verts/etc and could not find anything undone... but I do see from your render what you are talking about. I tried adding some edge lines to help keep it under control though.
As far as the boot straps (sides and top) yes they are meant to be installed seperately, so your boots would either have top straps or side straps...I was trying to give you options to choose from.

I sent you an email, mainly about the gun parenting to the holster. Did I explain the problem okay?
