Male Elvaan biker outfit - as per request.

[locus]

Been getting multiple requests for Male Elvaan work recently, specifically "sexy" male elvaan outfits. I guess flattery will get you everywhere...

Art-talk: Some people draw before they make a design, but I do the opposite. Lazy/fast otogaki scribble, because I have yet to get OpenCanvas onto this computer and photoshop is hell for drawing, so apologies if it's not quite up to standards.

- I don't do elvaan work normally because the neck is really hard to work around and conceal (lt's not just the infamous giraffe neck - elvaan arms are too long, not to mention the joints deform in a really ugly fashion) and I can't test one easily in-game without messing up everything with racecon (Which I hate doing). So apologies in advance if there are major clipping errors and stuff ingame - It was the best I could do with the shakkin model viewer. Aldo's turban looks as if it will clip with the hair of the spike-headed elvaan model in model viewer, but I have it on "HIDE-2", so it *should* be fine in-game. Let me know if it isn't, cause I'm not going to spam Jeuno with shouts for a male elvaan to be my personal fashion mannequin.

-The dagger is permanently attached to the belt, but it *should* look fine with most other equipment on (exception: don't use robes). Both stolen shamelessly from Aldo and tweaked somewhat to match elvaan proportions/motions. Using the sword belt, it's entirely possible to make a sling across the back for one - something to try sometime when I'm free, I guess.

That's great Locus. Way to put your money where your mouf went =)

I honestly don't plan on adding it to MY game, for reasons beyond comprehension [ >.> ], but I did wanna ask :

You mess with the skeletal weights at all to give it a flowing feature when moving? It's damn time consuming, but with the amount of artistic effort you're putting into .dats, that would top it off tremendously.

Keep up the great stuff and hope to see more.

I attached the belt to the waist bone. It behaves exactly like a normal belt except it suffers from slight clipping when running/sitting, otherwise it looks fine.

Turban was attached to main head bone so that it moves to the body, but the dangly cloth bit was attached to the side-head bone so it behaves more like the front edges of a Thief AF hat - doesn't seem to animate much when you do emotions, but it moves pretty well when you're in battle.

Not quite done with elvaan m yet - someone requested a shirtless elvaan mod (IMO a bad idea because it'll show how ridiculously long the neck is, but I like a challenge), but I'm busy recently so I don't know how long it will take. Thanks to all for the nice comments, I really appreciate it.

Any ETA on that? That's something I'd REALLY like to have, especially from such a talented artist.

(And I'm no ass-kisser. lmao)

Lucres: Working on it as I'm typing this, actually.

Been spending the last week trying to figure out the best way to fix mapping glitches due to wrong size information in the bitmaps, I've updated the files and the belt and dagger should now actually be mapped correctly + small fix to the collar that I overlooked.

As for Galka... uh... maybe later, perhaps.

(I also went out and bought a male elvaan mannequin so I can test model changes)
