This is finally just about done. This is not the dress in Blue Velvet, I started a over again, as I wasn't 100% happy with that one. As anyone who has tried the Formal Dress that is included with Poser knows, Poser has problems with dresses, especially long dresses, especially long tight dresses! As making it loose wasn't an option for me, I played around with recutting the conforming figure everyway I could think of, and including magnets, I finally decided to include invisable shins, and this is a workable solution, as well as letting the Posette stick her shapely leg out the side slit. It will also ship with two magnets installed, for further control (the shins can't bend the lower hip). It might just be possable to do a walk cycle for her, if she takes smallish steps. Oh yes- I hoped to include hair, too, but this still has a long way to go, but it will also ship with all new, greatly improved high heels, and the jewelry, and glove cuffs. It should be up at BBay in a couple of days, all I've got to do is put the Zip togeather and write the read-me's.

Scarab- They are separate props, I found if you do a morph you have problems with the texture maps, as the vertices are moved so far the texture is sort of streched, and it changes color. The only solution I found is either put new shoulders in the model or have a separte prop for the cuffs, and include a texture map that changes the color of the arms to match- it is going to ship with a figure texture map as shown, and another with black gloves- it is a simple job to fill the correct area with the color on any figure texture. I mapped the cuffs to a unused spot in the regular p4 nude map, to simplify things.

That dress...those heels...those legs...almost looks like raven haired Jessica Rabbit (from Who Framed Roger Rabbit) Nice work. Boy Zygote really let the ball drop on the clothes, good thing the indy artists are picking it up and running very far with it!
