WIP Brawny Knight

[cynnix]

I wanted to share my progress on one of the male bodyshapes I'm working on (currently there are three), the Brawny Knight. For this shape I wanted some muscle but a bit of padding around the hips, tummy and thighs. Think older knight, not past his prime but he's slowing down a bit, he's received land from his monarch and he's enjoying his family ;) He can still go to battle when called but he's getting older. He's the counterpart to the Buxom Wench that I have 3/4 of the way finished.

It depend on the sleeves- they're not as easy as shoe swaps, but still.
And I think if we search through some of the modern seperates- especially sweaters, we could find a sleeve.

Yes, one of the reasons I have few bodyshapes is I hate to use only one or two meshes for all outfits, and if I have nude + two or 3 for everyday + an underwear/sleepwear + outerwear for medieval I'm more likely to nab.

Which tunics am I to be making for you waiting on? :P
(if I'm free tommorow I'm doing the Tunic length 03 and 04)

... what tunics. Um, I don't remember? *checks post* Aside from child conversions, the only things still on my list of 'oh man I want to recolor this' are some kind of long nightgown-y tunic and a sleeve-01 hem-01 tunic with some kind of shoe. Soled hosen I could paint a shoe onto, FR's poulaines, or Aligeth's Robin Hood shoe, doesn't matter too much to me but that's my order of preference. Because gambesons. Because I finally found an option for Medieval gym clothes, so gambesons.

I don't think I mind only using a few meshes-- I mean, like I told Cynnix, I just collected most, if not all, of the meshes in my game that I could use for different body shapes and the AM folder currently has the most, at sixteen. Friar Tuck, Robin Hood, Blockfoot nude, FR's tunic, FR's chausses, six things from your Perfect Tunics set, Liz's Rus tunic, Marja's edit of the Count D robe, the Sims 2 Store knight, Tig's alpha tunic, and Skell's Santa robe. And I'm honestly not sure I'll use all the Perfect Tunics that're in there.

Course, my game sticks to one period, so that helps a little.

LOL

I'm typing up my 'heget's heresies' world-building explanations (and I like that title) as I read this.

It'll be easy to add one of the shoes meshes to the nightshirt meshes (cynnix's new boots!)

It's making a long {mid-calf and ankle length} version of the tunics that I want to start on. Because that's the other missing major shape.
