This is my first time ever trying a body texture or adapting one, so be sorta' gentle *G*. I took Anton Kiesel's Tina (hope he won't be too upset) and adapted it. Truly, it isn't too bad to do this from the old textures, I discovered. I didn't finish it, but will (there's not a back done--or hands, feet) and I need to redo the crotch area again. I also notice that the left eye isn't quite right. The first time I did it I left the eyes in, but that didn't work. I painted out the eyeballs with a flesh color and that seemed to work. I'm not quite sure of the transparencies for the eyes and would appreciate someone explaining what's happening there. I didn't see a transmap for the eyes--though I haven't explored everything. I know for sure the face needs morphs--I wanted to do something with her nose and there's no way unless I learn to use the magnets. All in all, I think I like her a lot--but would like to change the facial shape and the nose. Patience, patience I guess. Diane B

Very well done texture, Diane The transparent eyeball ist just a ball around the original eye with no texture, 100% transparency an shinyness set to 100% so it's reflecting light like glass and making the eyes look real. You don't have to paint highlights to the pupils any more :-) -Ede

Is this the 'outer eyeball' that appears on the template? There are also places for eyebrows, eyelashes. I'm assuming that these are for transparency maps judging from the transmap that's included with her. Diane B

Diane, this is looking excellent.. Already she looks like another woman with your modification of Anton's texture.. I sometimes wouldn't use morphs but textures instead to get a different look out of my poser gal and then I'd get comments from people saying they liked the morphs I did.. lol Just shows how important texture can be..=) ~Cindy

Good work, Diane! You are talented with textures. Looks great! Like Cindy, I also noticed you can get a dramatic difference with just a good texture change, and hardly any morphs! -Talos
