Just wondering, are the shoes in your image part of the texture or shoes from some other set? I've been trying different shoes with this outfit to see what seems to "fit" best in my mind.

The shoes are part of the texture, because I just couldn't get any "real" shoes to fit over the feet part of the stockings, and I even tried with boots as well. The stockings are quite a loose fit to M4. Cutting the feet off didn't help. as if you do that in the HE they cut off at the ankle.

I was thinking of using lace or something sheer, but for some reason that first one looked better in fabric. I shall do some more soon. I am holding back a bit to give Neil a chance to get his programs re-loaded after his catastrophic PC crash.

which could be longer that I thought as I seam to have an underling problem that caused the crash But I cant work out what it is as I am still getting random crashes even with a complete clean reinstall so it must be a Hardware issue I just need to work out with what bit

Oooh ouch, that doesn't sound good. I hope you can find the problem and take care of it without replacing hardware.

Yup, I agree with you, he can well do without that sort of expense with christmas coming up.

Made another dress. With this one you get lace and typical Chohole glitter all at the same time. Laughing

Decided maybe she should have a gold lace collar as well

Am I the only one who thinks this dress just screams "peacock"? Very Happy

LOVE the green collar more hon. I think with the gold trim it actually pulls it all together!! My suggestion would be to add a tinge of orange to the gold though, it's almost too bright and with the green underskirt it's tending towards an odd color. Not sure if the tinge would fix that but it's just a suggestion. You do as you think's best, I was just sharing my observation is all....

Blue sets are very nice!! Very Happy

and a purple/pink set too! A Flower for You

Love your colors and glad you are doing something for this dress, it has so much potential.

Aha! I had a reply from DAZ, saying what you said, Cho! I can use the laces if I encode them, so will package ASAP and post at Treasurechest or send it to you, if you let me know which you would prefer. Very Happy

Wow! Love the green texture.

That#s great Trumarcar. I guess if you set them up as a general freebie would be nice, as there must be others who, like me, think this dress is a tad unfinished. I am even experimenting to see if I can add a bow from some other set to fasten the overtop at the front.

Um, unfortunately I didn't realise you now have to pay for RTEncoder, so have bought it, but will have to wait until they send the registration. Sad

I have to admit I didn't know that either. Wonder how long that has been.

Since PoserPros.com was bought by Daz, honestly, as Russ was one of the owners.

Ah I see. I know I have had my copy for ages.

Tweaked the gold colour, as Wolffie suggested, in fact what I did was go back to my original settings. I had thought maybe the gold was too orangy this way, but maybe not after all.

It always looks different when posted here to the way it looks on the poser sreen.

GASP!!

These are gorgeous, and I love what the lace does. Quite honestly, I like the lace on its own for the collar, but I do love it as an overlay to the solid color beneath. Really awesome work.

Hit it perfectly now Cho!! WOW!! Shocked

Used the same lace skirt, but a different colour.

My other half says this one is a bit dark. I shall do more with the corset later, once I have added the laces that Trumarcar has made.

I love it. The purple/black and dark red/black combos are very hot colors for many renders nowadays. No shortage of ppl, me included, looking for these types of colors for dark images.

If you were looking to add a bow or two to the front, what about maybe parenting it to the chest and/or abdomen of the dress? That wouldn't work for a vertical lace, because it would need to flex, but individual ribbons might work that way.... I need to experiment with this.

I think it looks darkly divine just as it is Cho!! Striking!! Very Happy
