WIP-Bodyshape

[cynnix]

Working on a shape in between EAxis and Buxom Wench. I have most of the meshes done for both of them, I just need to decide if using a skintone that uses full body meshes is the way to go to save space, and which skins to use.

How does she compare to the Maxis fatmorph?

[cynnix]

I finished the roman swim mesh so I compared the two in bodyshop.



This shape was requested to replace the elder female. Once I finish the meshes I'm making defaults. I need to get new screenshots of the meshes. I edited the waist so it has a more natural progression into the hips. I'm including twelve full body meshes with this set and a top and bottom.

The same set of meshes will be done for Buxom Wench, RenGalv2,AthleticGirl, and the Faerie edit. I'm prbably going to do Well Rounded Sim too so there is a heavy mesh.

I don't use FitChick(has a natural sort of shape but it's close to EAxis), VolGal, Rio, CPU, Fashion Model, PowerGirl, Toon or Booty Gal so I won't be converting for those shapes.

... I hadn't even thought of her as an elder replacement, but I like that idea. I'll have to give some thought to that one, even though I kinda like my skinny-ish EF nude/undies/swim default. With that in my head-- yeah, she looks really good. The only thing I see that doesn't look like a plausibly post-menopausal lady is the swim or underwear mesh you're using on the tuttensack. (Those boobs are AMAZING and I support them as an option, but they're not really the same semi-saggy shape as the rest of the set.)

I selected the right on for the photo, but when I hit F9 and turned her it must have switched the outfit. That is actually the adult version of the shape, but Nadia liked this one so much she wanted this as an af shape too, and elder replacement. When I finish up it will be released in different sets, I'll have to offer stand alone versions for af and ef and I guess a set that has this shape in both af & ef for people that want to use it that way.



That's the right tuttensack, an Aligeth conversion, and the wide sleeve summerdress with poulaines :)

I'm on the hunt now for a set of Warlokk/sexy feet compatible skins that have a wide enough range of colors. Having light and dark skins is a must. Most sets I've found only offer lighter skins, the skin I use for tan sims is what they are using as a dark skin.

[hat_plays_sims]

That can happen. I wish you couldn't still accidentally click things when in F9 mode, it's frustrating.

*goes through skintone folder* *checks Boobie Project folder for the ones she had to fix* ... Damn, why didn't I label all of these as to what I needed to do... Okay, I think I can recommend most of Pooklet's skins right off the bat, and certainly Kids in Technicolor and their latest set, because I wouldn't have used a set as big as KIT if I had to move nipples, not just replace EF textures (I stopped downloading most skins before I learned to texture reference, more fool me), Aquilegia's Food of the Gods and Penny Wise, Arcade, and For Your Thoughts, which have a wonderful range of colors, and absolutely Trapping's December, July Secret Santa, and Freckly skins. I KNOW I can recommend Rensim's PEAU and I can send it to you if it's not available (but I think it's up in Rensim's Walking With Zombies section on GoS), Needlecream's Lemon Tree, Asian Blend and Opeu Blend sets, Alfred Askew's Reconstruction (I only seem to have two, so there may have been pixelation issues), Astiees Naturally Idealized, and Cutthroat Dollie's Geek on Prom Night.

... Honestly, I have 211 skintones genetcized from 0.020 (Pooklet's Less Pop Concert, More Butchery vampire, Woe Is Me And Woe Is You) to 1.160 (Pooklet's My Poor Lover Eight) and most of them work just fine with sexyfeet and Xhires mapping so long as you're willing to replace or reference EF textures... but I dunno if it's just one big set you're looking for. I like the variation in eyelids and noses and mouths and shading and shininess that using a ton of different creators' sets gives me.

skins

[cynnix]

Thanks Hat! I'll check into the ones you have listed. Some of the ones I have checked so far, the nipples do not line up with Warlokk's mesh, and many sets do not have separate textures for normal, fit and fat. If a mesh has morphs, the skin should have differences for the other fitness states.

What I'm hoping to do is find a set that I can use as my default set that I can then reference the shapes I've built to, tiny file size for the shapes that way. I can release each body shape with the basic skins then go back later and make additional colors.

This shape looks great! Not that I use sexy feet but I like it very much for elder females.

As for skins, I think curious b's signal to noise set and pyxis's skins are sexy feet compatible.

[cynnix]

Thanks Oph3lia :) I'm sharing a EAxis foot version too, I know many people can't/don't want to use sexy feet but would be interested in bodyshapes without them.

I have checked both of those in the past for other bodyshapes. The nipples don't line up with Warlokk's nude mesh.

I may have to go with Rensim's Peau skins. They have all fitness states, the nipples do line up, and they have the texture for the sexy feet. The only issue I have with those is most of them have a very yellow tone to the skins. So I'm not crazy about the actual colors.
