Hello there dear Habsburgs and Bourbons,

Hi guys :)
Moving on with the toughest part of redesigning the Leto Outfit into MDP.
My first attempt will be a simple form and an elaborate texture of the pendant's medallions. So first I try to set up some nice proportions and scale of the elements and secondly ...

I wanted to post Falka (and Saskia) 1.7 at Nexus today, but I discussed the steel material recently with one of the Patrons and we got to some interesting conclusions.
I need only a bit of time to incorporate these ideas and the major update will be available at Nexus this week I hope.
So please s...

I wanted to post this one for a long time - speaking of masks headdresses and voluptuous gowns.
I don't know if the Emerald City series is any good as far as screenplay goes, since I just watched it for the costumes. :D I really admire every Tarsem Singh movie (he is th...

I thought I'd do a little bit more this weekend regarding the MDP project, but I had to clean my flat :D since things started to pile up dangerously. What I managed to do, is to think about the new belt concept. Again, I started with medallions forming a chain and I think I'll stick to that.
Only few de...

Well here goes the final look of the headdress :)
I really like the medallions motif - it looks more like Hermaeus Mora - related, which adds a pile of evil to the look, which is kind of nice I guess :D
Now time to move on to the necklacer :)

So, to model the multilayer halo I created 5 layers - fron...

I finally started to think about some alternative looks for the former Leto Outfit. I'll try to stick to mythic dawn theme. Since I really like the rising sun motif for the headdress. here are some first designs. I will produce a bit more I guess. But I already like some of them :)
What do you think?

Hey there dear Patrons,

Unfortunately the Leto Outfit had to be shut down, both here and at Nexus, on the request of the original author of the outfit.
After a brief chat she told me, that she had no problem with the mod itself, but it became somewhat widespread and that was not very pleasant to her since she started to worry ...

Did some first screen tests with Falka to Saskia retex. I'm quite happy with it, especially that I managed to change the armor's appearance pretty much. Even the belts look a bit different than originally :D It was fun to do :)
