I've made a good amount of progress on Tifa Nude Natural V9, but it will still take some time before she is complete so I wanted to give a quick update.
Right now her breasts are still in their original position/shape as I plan on making different outfits from this new base mesh, so I want her body to stay as close to the official Rebirth model as possible while creating the new base mesh. Which afterwards I will then implement a more natural teardrop shape for the nude variations of V9.
V9 is being built from the ground up with the Rebirth model. By combining the skin mesh of all of Tifa's outfits in Rebirth, it's possible to get very close to what an official nude Tifa would actually look like. I then just had to fill in the few gaps left from there, which was more difficult than I anticipated, but I'm happy with how it's turning out so far.
V8.5 had some remnants of the Remake model, which made some UVs and skin textures lower quality when compared to Rebirth, and some weight-painting and animation deformations were slightly off since the Rebirth rig is slightly different. Those issues should now be resolved with V9.
I'm not sure if this will make it into V9, but I'm also working with another modder to experiment with creating more realistic breast physics than Rebirth's rig would originally allow. Which would add support for more natural deformation while leaning forward, backwards, or running for example.
