This might not look like much but after drawing a few 2D mockups I ended up reshaping the corset again, trying to get the right “feel” is quite a pain, I adjusted the waistline some more and narrowed down the sides again. Those pictures are the result for today.

Oh yeah also added the zip channel on the lower body.

I’ve been suffering from some pretty bad headaches for the past two days, but I still got some work done.

Don’t take this as face value, it really is a “shell” in need of a lot of detailing.

Actually it was due during the big round of update but I forgot about them 🙂

Ended up redoing the basic corset shape 3 or 4 times today, I settled on this one.

There is a bit more ribcage definition than the previous one and, in my opinion, it looks less “restricted”. The goal is to have it look fairly comfortable but with an aggressive look.

I’ve also wrapped the lower body to start building the shorts/ leotar-type thing I’m going for there.

Yes this is a corset.

But at the same time I’m not really making “a”  corset. The corset only happens to be the centerpiece of what I am trying to make.

This is a first draft, I spent the better part of yesterday trying to find reference material for what I had in mind.

So far, I don’t like it, but that’s why this is a “first draft” right?

People have been asking me again and again if this or that version is the latest. But those times are over now. If you go to the KDC Main Store, there is now a live display near the elevator that contains all the products currently served by the new updater, and which version is currently being served.

Obviously you need media prims enabled to be able to see it. Alternatively I added a link in the site’s sidebar.

Someone kindly reported to me an issue with TB products losing their leash pulling ability on teleport. I spent a good chunk of monday figuring out what exactly was going on. As it turns out, this has been an issue since multi-chain was added, february of last year.

I’m surprised that no one else reported the issue before?

Anyway, there will be a lot of product updates in the next coming days as I deploy the patch, but it will take a little while to do all the affected items.

Someone, somewhere in our R&D department has been fired for this clear attempt at fitting a mere pet store-bought muzzle to a human head harness and calling it a “revolution”.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

As usual, you can find it in the KDC Main Store and on the SecondLife Marketplace.

Enjoy 🙂

It’s looking good! It’s also missing a bunch of bits that I forgot to include in the model, but the textures are at final size so that should give you an idea 🙂

I think I will to tone down the specularity on the backing too… The shine… it bothers me.

I’ve managed to share texture between all the minor straps. I usually don’t do this because it has a tendency to mess up with the normal mapping. But hey, it works.

This is definitely not my favourite UVmap. There is way too much empty space along the side panels, but at least I saved about a quarter of it with the texture sharing.

The harness is kind of this big mono-block thing so I had to cut int into pieces, hopefully no one will notice the texture seams.

There is still a bit of room I can use later for things like rivet backs and my logo.
