[Guest]

Never mind, no longer need help

place seams where ppl are not going to look or where sewings are supposed to be and especially on hard edges if you dont want bad surprises

I know that, I just cannot get the skirt or belt UV'd just quite right though.

anyway it's usless to post the highpoly, the lowpoly could be everything. You are too much generic, personally the only problem i have with UVs is how to waste less space as possible. I dont see other difficulties. What do you mean with "cannot get the skirt or belt UV'd just quite right though.". UV doesnt need to be beauty

Okay here is the skirt, I just don't know where to place seams

There is a back face to the skirt

there are lot of faces, especially on the lower part. Edges seems to be beveled so i get you dont have hard edges. You could lower the polycount a lot more. With this mesh i would just split front faces and back faces, then a small cut on the back or side of the belt. You will get 2 simple islands

Okay, I'll give that a try, thanks.

your model is realy detailed, you are better than me at modeling. Would you like to make some items for devious devices team? Modelers are always needed Kimy, the "mistress", has and endless list of items to make

 

I am learning 3d too, actually i use marvelous designer, blender, substance painter\designer. I will soon switch to maya\zbrush. We could help each other

Ah thank you. My knowledge is limited as how to model things, but if that doesn't matter, then it's a possibility? Could you direct me to the type of mods or a mod that your modders have made?

The devious project is composed of several bricks This is expansion http://www.loverslab.com/files/file/1305-devious-devices-expansion/

 

Lately we are doing some dresses. They dont require to be too much hot, Kimy prefer elegance over perverted stuff.

I am working on this right now, it is uncomplete, textures WIP and mesh require to be polished. She prefered an item without "open access" but i am a peverse idiot and i could not resist.

I think your taste would be more appropriate for Kimy

Does your weight painting have to be good? I suck at weight painting lol

[pincopallino]

obviously yes, on that straitjacket i spent more time skinning than modeling. And i had to make a custom skeleton to pose it in that way. But you have to learn right? No pain no gain. Skinning is as much important as modeling in 3d. We also have a good animator in the team working with 3DS. http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/users/1054929/?tb=mods&pUp=1

I do need to learn how to skin   but I have no idea where or how to learn.

[pincopallino]

i always used blender for skinning but i dont think 3ds to be too much different. Most of the work is automatic but you spend time finetuning. The topology of the lowpoly need to be good to not deform with animations too, low poly topology and skinning are tied. 

Actually the DD team is in pause this month, december it is a month full of festivities but if you want i will tell kimy to invite you in the DD thread so maybe you can find somthing you like to do. If you dont find anything interesting for you no problem To talk is not a sin.

Can i ask Kimy to invite you?

 

Kimy realy want a new chastity belt. It is a simple item to make and require almost no skining. If you dont hate that kind of item you could start with it
