A work in Progress, this one is about 30% complete as far as the modeling goes.

Added the elbow pads and tried a simple texture on there. Probably won't be in the final materials.

nice she is

I can't see the pictures in this thread - strange...

I had to refresh the page a couple times to see them myself and I'm the one who posted them!!!

That is strange. Thought maybe it was just my internet connection...

Ah, ok. Looking good.

The jumpsuit is pretty much done. Although I am contemplating putting a zipper in where it opens at the top. Next will either be the gloves or boots. The gun belt will be last.

It's about the suit, not the figure, right? This is a N.R Suit, not a N.R. Character. Just to make sure ;)

uhhh N.R.???

Oh... duh... Natasha.

Yeah, it's about the suit.

I lied. Did the gun belt.

Boots are done. I am still trying to decide if I am going to make the gloves or not. I don't think I want to release this one.

Unless someone really needs it.

View from the back. I am going to change the material zones for the elbow guards. Other than that, this is pretty much it.

Let me know if you want this. I'll see about getting it ready if there is enough interest.

This thread sat here for about 8 hours without a response. I'd say that's a pretty good indicator no one wants this costume.

This is a great suit, sometimes you can't take the silence as a negative. I am interested in anything for the default folks.

I have just never been one to take silence as anything else. If I don't want something, or don't know the answer to a question, I don't speak up.

But anyway, the suit does pretty well as a dynamic clothing prop. I am not going through the trouble of rigging it right now.

Last render of this suit.

This is a great suit, sometimes you can't take the silence as a negative. I am interested in anything for the default folks.

How else am I supposed to take it? Especially in light of the fact that I put in writing a request to let me know if you want it. If no one does that, then the answer is no. There are currently 2500 'artists' online right now. This thread is flowing down to the bottom of the page like a river on a flood swell. That says no interest.

     Are those sky blue parts luminous, cousin?

     Are those sky blue parts luminous, cousin?

Yeah, but I don't have your skills. I want to make them look like neon, but all I did was bump up the ambient.

I thought at one time you gave me a shader for this, but for some reason when I look at where I keep all of those, it's not there.

See, this is it...

 I want to make them look like neon

     I think I can arrange that. :D   When it's ready,  I'll try to add concealed IDL emitters so that it will actually glow in Firefly renders. Assuming I can get the emitter rigging to match the suit. ; )      I don't think a shader on the visible neon will do it;  you'll need a second (emitter) mesh.

Site mail me. I don't know if I was smart enough to save your email address. I'll send you the mesh.

I did still have your email address. I sent you the suit.

Sent.  You'll need to check the site mail because the little notification icon doesn't work since the new website change.

Oooops.  Cross-posted.  OK, I'll take a lot at this in Silo, make a prototype emitter system, and then do some render tests in Poser.

The suit is not UV mapped yet, and the shaders on there are procedural. I will get around to mapping it eventually.

For the post above with the texture on it, that one was mapped, but I got rid of it because it was super poly heavy; like 90k...

I am getting her face closer to what I want for this character.

 Keeping this one in plain sight. Just in case someone says "HEY! I've been looking for that!!!"

I love the Poser 10 morph brush. There was a lot of poke through here. Not anymore!

 Roxie A.K.A. Natasha Romanoff looks good Rokket

 Natasha Romanoff, aka The Black Widow!

I am waiting for my cousin, Seachnasaigh to give me an emitter package for the neon stripes on her uniform, and then I will rig it and put it in the freebies. 

  I'm working on it right now! :D   I'm setting up a proof-of-concept scene, making sure the emitter array can move with the suit, and then I'll need to run some test renders to get the emitters adjusted in intensity.

 Cool. Take your time. I am still working out some of the bugs with this suit. I am UV mapping everything and creating textures for the gun belt. It will be awhile before I am ready to rig it.

allright:

I have to tell you, that I feel a bit sorry about, that nobody seems to notice your work. You did a great job, and I known as a Roxie supporter apreciate, what you've created. It's a pitty, that Roxie isn't much supported in the comunity anyway, allthough I've noticed that her popularity has yet increased a bit.

I can only speak for myself: It's not you. It's just your timing, that is not that well chosen. DAZStudio is out with IRAY and G3Females, so I think lot's of people are (like I do) distracted from Poser by checking out DS and the new girls. (g)

About Roxie, I'm done with her. I've tried to get the best out of her, that I can do. But does anybody care? I don't know. I cannot complain about the download statistics of my SexyRoxy freebie, but I've never seen any renders using her. I've hardley seen any renders using Roxie at all. -Except in forum posts

There are hardley any Roxie Characters available, and beside my SexyRoxy I know of only one other Roxie Character, that realy make look Roxie different. Any other character look pretty much like the stock Roxie, so hardley a variation.

So keep in mind, realy great work. And to make a "black widow" suit is really a cool idea. Thanks for posting. :)

Timberwolf, did you ever fix your Sexy Roxie morphs to work with Roxie1.1?  I have them, but also have Roxie1.1 so they don't work on her.

rokket, I'm sorry people are being so obtuse.  I love Roxie and created quite a bit for her.

What that got me was laughed out of the room.

I know how you are feeling right now, and I could say I want your clothing here for her, but I created a bodysuit like this for her a year ago.  I just never bothered even trying to release it for her.  It would just garner more point and laugh out of this crowd.

Creating for anyone but at the alter of the Vicky Shrine does this - makes people point and laugh.

And this is exactly why I gave up vendoring.  I only create for underused figures and don't feel like being mocked and belittled for doing so.

Good luck.

On a "positive" note, just keep using the figures that make you happy.

http://www.sharecg.com/v/76305/browse/11/Poser/SexyRoxy

Has there been any version newer than 1.01 ???

If there has been and they didn't change geometrie, it should still work.

I have the first one. I didn't know there was a 1.01 or anything else for Roxie. Is that part of one of the SR's?

Yeah, it's time to get thick skinned again. I shouldn't let this bother me so much. I know the Poser crowd is all Vicki happy. I've seen it in the freebies section. Someone will post 2 or 3 poses that anyone can create if they take a few minutes to figure out her rig, and get 2500 downloads in a few days. I will spend a week or more making a very detailed, very time consuming costume (like the Halo rig I did for Miki 4) and get 250 downloads in a year's time. I know. I should be more relaxed about it. But up until I discovered they were giving away a V4 bundle (I missed the opportunity to get M4) I didn't even own her. So I am behind the times. I don't care. I create what makes me happy. I create things for friends who can't create for themselves and don't want to spend the money for yet another V/M morph or costume. It's the modeling that makes me happy, not the end result. I could spend two weeks modeling a lamp and get more charged out of that then doing a render of V4 that gets me 10,000 hits in 3 days. That's me. I will continue to do what I do even if it's not appreciated by the masses. If 78 people have downloaded my work, great. Although, come to think of it, beyond hborre posting a render he did of my Miki Halo suit, I've never seen ANYTHING I have modeled in a render here or anywhere.... 

Yes, the "SexyRoxy Update" is the morph target for Roxie with the transmapped lashes as part of her head-mesh.

(Please be aware: For both characters, you'll need to adjust the eyeballs by using the translate dials.)

 If I do post this, I guess we will know by how many downloads it gets.

My MOS suit for Tyler is a niche. Nobody uses him or Ryan much anymore. But I do know that people are still making things for him. I uploaded it because someone wanted that suit for a comic they were working on. The best bending figure I had in my runtime who also had some really good muscle morphs was Tyler. So I made this suit for one person. As of this writing it has been downloaded 81 times in about 17 days (I am in the Philippines so I am 15-16 hours ahead of the US). Not bad for something I only did expecting one or maybe two people to download.

I've also noticed that there are VERY few people who pay any attention to my posts. There is a very small core group who respond to anything I say or any work I post. I am pretty much ok with that as long as I see more than 2 or 3 downloads of anything I create. The fact that anyone is downloading anything of mine gives me a thrill beyond anything you can think of. I started out downloading all these things I thought I might need, and as it turns out, when I learned how to use Wings and Blender, I deleted 90% of it because I created something better myself. It all works out.

I am only doing this to please one person: me. I realize that now. If no one wants my stuff, so be it. V4 still loves them.

I am going to get it. I like using morphs because they add spice to my renders. It's always nice when I can get something unexpected out of this.  

Now if someone could come up with a decent Scarlett Johansson morph for her, that would be awesome. I am getting close, but there is only so much her built in morphs and the face room can do. I haven't figured out how to make a morph that actually works when it's done, so I have to do things the hard way. 

a Scarlett Johansson morph for Roxie would be rally cool :)

     I support Roxie.  I support Rokket, too.  :D

     I would be interested in the Halo outfit for Miki.

     Here's the test render;  we got neon lighting for Natasha Romanoff!

  Rokket, I'll do the OBJ extraction bit and pack both your suit and the unseen IDL emitter system up in runtime order.  I did them as dynamic (all constrained), but you could set the emitter up as a conforming figure.  The emitter needs to either be a separate figure from the suit or have separate body part names, so that you can un-tick the visible in camera box for the emitter.

     You have to render with IDL for it to cast light.  In the test render, note the blue light on Natasha's left cheek,  the light from her left knee pad shining on her right hand,  and light from her right knee pad shining on the pavement.  The emitter light-casting strength is adjustable by changing the emitter's ambient value.

 Cousin, that looks absolutely PERFECT. I can't wait to see it. Yeah, it will all be rigged. There isn't too much call these days for dynamic cloth. I guess most people don't like messing with it; but to me, it's a much better way to go, especially for animation.

Thank you for your hard work. You just don't know how much I appreciate you.

Miki's HALO armor: http://www.renderosity.com/mod/freestuff/?item_id=71848 

     Aha!  Got the Halo armor for Miki.  I had downloaded that before, but lost the machine it was on due to lightning.  I had a big (105lb) battery/surge unit, but if the lightning strike is close, a surge protector will be overwhelmed.  It destroyed the batt/surge unit itself, also;  it blew out some of the printed circuit paths on the motherboard without blowing any of the UPS' fuses or circuit breakers.  One bank of batteries looks OK, the batteries in the other bank are swollen and have even split open the casings.

     Emitter prop & OBJ has been sent via e-mail.

 And I got them and answered your second email. Thank you so much for your excellent work. As soon as I get everything figured out, I will rig it and then put it in the freestuff for everyone to play with.

You're one in a million! 

 Damn my internet connection! I keep getting an invalid file error! Grrrrrrr.

I will try to download it later. It was crawling at 7 to 9 KB per second, and stopped at 1.53MB.

Been having issues like this all day. I don't know why. 

 Well....

I went outside and vented my frustrations on a stray cat. I missed the little bugger but I got to see him (or her, I don't know) run like I shot at it.

I then went back in the house and rebooted my wifi router and my laptop.

I am back in business.

I have never rigged a suit with hidden emitters before. Will I have to give them a separate rig that conforms to the suit, or will they just stay where they are when I rig the suit?

I am going to assume the emitters are parented to the suit at present, and shouldn't be a problem with the rig.

I am still playing with rendering it. I am changing around some of the textures (not much, just making the honeycomb a little smaller).

News when there is something to report. A few days maybe. 

     I had the emitters as a separate prop;  the suit and the emitter were each dynamically simmed.  The reason for separate props was so that the emitter's properties could be set to be not visible in camera (and not cast shadows).

     To set them up as conforming figure(s), you would need to give the emitter separate body part names so that they would have their own properties, or make the suit one figure and the emitter another conforming figure;  that would also provide the emitter with its own properties.

     The suit obviously needs to be visible in camera, but the emitter must be not visible in camera.

 Ah, ok then. I have some work to do! This is going to be interesting.

 This is how I had envisioned the suit to look. Your texturing is so much better than mine.
