Yahoo! The Kontari outfit is no longer fixed to the letter "T". It is fully poseable.
This image is getting closer to the final outfit. I still have numerous small pokethru problems and the skirt needs handles badly. But I am happy with how it is turning out.
I still haven't gotten around to starting the hair model. The one is this scene is BATLAB's Twin Tail hair. Everything else, including the character, was modeled in wings3D.
BTW: A recent poll indicated by an overwhelming majority that the new character model should be called " Shajiki". As such, I will no linger be referring to her as Cube01.

Good to see this is still developing! When will you get her expressions going?

Sadly, I'm thinking about to redoing her face.

That might be a good thing. Believe me, that is not as uncommon as you may think. The face must have good edge flow or expressions will not work.

The head was the first thing I started with. By the time I got done with the body, I realized that the head had lots of problems. Now that I've done an outfit, I'm realizing the whole body has issues. *sigh* Learning is fun.

That's how it usually goes. Modeling for animation is quite different from modeling just for the sake of it. Edge flow become very important and sometimes recreating the entire model is easier than trying to fix it. Like everything in life, the more you do, the easier and more efficient it gets. ^^

I think it's safe to say yours is looking much better than mine
The only thing I can think of now is that in Samurai tradition they carried a katana and a shorter wakazashi, I dunno if it matters to you or not though It already looks fine like that
you're so good

This bothered me for so long! I couldn't tell from the drawing if she had two katanas or if one was a wakazashi....

Not a problem. It would be easy enough to scale one of the Katanas.

VERY nice work! Woohoo! She looks SOOooooooo happy at her big glass poker!
I'm still impressed. I'm more impressed that you rigged it?

rigging....... Goes running off screaming through the house... returns shaken and broken....
Actually. All the rigging work is mainly done on the character and the rig just gets reused for the clothes (Thank God! see above...). It takes *far* longer to slice up the outfit than to copy over the rigging.
