I'm still debating a bit about the leather flowers thickness. I'll definitely test a thicker version than this one here in the pictures (1,5mm).
Have a nice weekend!

Greetings Patrons,
I've been travelling a bit at the beginning of September, so there were less WIP posts. I also was off the Discord Server. I'll catch up soon :)
I'm happy though, that we did another Retex Poll :) which is about to end - most probably (judging by current results...

It's Wednesday Sketches folks! :) I've been planning (during last few months) doing not only gowns but also armor.
This is a newest redesign of one of the vanilla Skyrim outfits. Can you guess which one is it?

Here is a satyrical one I did some time ago. It's according to a popular Polish song saying: "Almost the same but a wall is between us".
Stay well!

Hello dear Friends,
I've been abroad for three days recently. Namely I went from my Polish hometown to Dresden in Germany (Saxony) to visit the Zwinger Palace, the Royal Palace and the Great Garden.
Well, this resulted in an unexpected situation. ...

The last Mistique Lilies Retex went pretty well. Still some fixes to do for the 1.1 version. But let's talk about which outfit you think could be retextured next? The Black Corset Dress is out of the vote, since it was retexed last time. 2021-09-02 20:55:32 +0000 UTC View Post
We're just past Wednesday. I've just returned from my brief trip to Saxony and I'd like to present to you an older sketch I did once for an assignment, which title you can read above. Pencil on paper.
Have a nice week guys!

Yesterday I managed to texture the collar. Looks promising :) I also smoothened the collar's edge a bit and tuned the texture channels to make it look consistant with other materials.
I also faked the bodice edge roundness - a small trick but makes the ...

Yesterday I reverted to my 1640 Gown Max model and added some bindings on the border of the sleeves and the bodice, as well as on the sleeve edge in the elbow area.
I think it makes a nice detail and covers these borders quite nicely.
Next up is adding some details to the collar and skirt :)
And a couple more pics of the upcoming Patron exclusive outfit mod - The 1640 Rembrandt Gown. I really like the feel of the material.
I hope to start rigging next weekend ;)
