Public Poll; Mens CAS Content

Hiya!

I was wondering how many people are interested in men's cas items? 

Someone commented it over at Tumblr and i was just wondering how many people are rlly interested in menswear.

If you're a new patron for the 2nd/3rd tiers make sure you partake in this vote! I will add the results from this poll to the consultant/connoisseur poll. That one was last we...

The coming weeks

Hiya!

My paper for this semester is due on the 27th of March. The finals are on the 1st of April. This semester has been kicking my butt, it's about data modelling and i just haven't found the groove yet unfortunately.

I have to submerge myself into SQL because besides my paper i have to submit a concept database that's fully functioning. Gosh i'm so scared i'm gonna fail this semester :(
Than i won't be able to get my propaedeutic year which is a big deal here in The Netherlan...

Progress WIP; Bohemian Flutter Tops!

Hiya!

So i'm super happy with how these turned out! They're most likely one of my fav tops i've made in awhile! gosh i rlly love those flutterly tops and sleeves like that!

I'm slightly getting stressed out atm. i still have a lot of finishing up to do but the billing cycle is already here -__-. Not to mention i'm sooo far behind on homework. Last week was a bit of a hussle, i put in a lot of time to prepare myself for a possible new job that popped up at my uni. 

So i'...

Early WIP; Bohemian Flutter Top!

Hiya!

OMG its 12:18 am here i'm exhausted after a full day of work (started at 6 am friday morning). Buttttt..... this piece was worth the hussle i think! It's still a rough mock up, i need to redo the texture and edit the mesh to finish it but hopefully it will work out! I also have a plan for a variation of the sleeves! (that's the floating sleeve outside of the top UV).

Will continue working on it tomorrow! <333

Nice weekend everyone!

Love, Renora.

Progress WIP; Denim Dress.

Hiya!

I'm a bit late to post the update, i was trying to do a gameplay posting from the new GP but got sidetracked because i also need to work on my new paper anddddd... goodies for March! 

This dress cost me my sanity today. Like, you would not believe... it looks so simple and yet, doing weights and altering the geometry to the female body (by hand, cuz that gives the best results for me now) is insane... Above is without a bump, spec, and shadow map. I also need to redo UV...

Early WIP; Yay or Nah?

Hiya! 

I rlly loved the dress kiddo's got with EL! Needless to say the texture requires a curvy overhaul to make it more fitting to adults but i loved the design of it! What do you guys think? Is this one worth the hassle? I will also come in just plain denim swatches of course!

This is just the original texture that will also be added after adding more shading to af curves. 

Love,

Renora.

Progress WIP; 2nd version!

Hiya! 

So the original jumper was cute in the original form but i figured it would also be with this kind of top! i always loved the top that came with the bg jumper and it fits very well with this one too. i'm planning on doing plain recolors + the original swatches that came with the kiddo jumper.

Progress WIP; Jumper.

Hiya!

It's coming along nicely i think, i was a tiny bit worried about the top part being to flat and boxy for a feminine frame but managed to edit that out. Ive tried some new thing while editing the mesh, things ive remembered from last summer, all the tutorials i did for blender. 

Its so sad that i've lost all that knowledge (3 months worth of notes) when the OneNote i kept was corrupted. Some of it i remember but all those things about nodes and all thin...

Early WIP; Jumper.

I decided to give this cute jumper we got for kids a go for adults! This is the original form but im also planning on making a 'spaghetti-strap' version of it. This has been more work than i anticipated, im also wanting to adjust the breast texture and bump to give it that natural shading adults have in there. What do you guys like it so far?

do you guys think its worth the trouble? Or should we leave kiddy clothing in the kiddy department?

Finished WIP; 4 coats.

I decided to recolor the coats as well so we now have 4 new MM BGC coats in the top category! I always thought that we never had enough options in that category.
I rlly like how it turned out and hopefully you guys do too! :3 They come in 20 recolors, 12 OG swatches + 6 dual-tone swatches =)

Now moving onto the next project!

Progress WIP; More coats!

I think the short version is also very cute! I started working on these bc i wanted to start with something simple since i haven't touched Blender and PSD in months but its like riding a bike... or so it seems. I'm suprised how easy i pick up where i left of. 

After these im going to work on a dress i've had saved on my Insta for a few months now. i have enough for a collection tbh and they're super duper cute! Just to show you two cuz i don't want to spoil the surprise. A...

February billing paused.

Hiya!

Even though I've resumed creating this past week, i don't have stuff done for release in February. I will use February to work on new CC that most likely will be released in March. 

As most of you know, i will only resume the billing cycle if i have something to give you guys in return. So stay tuned this coming month! I plan on keeping you guys updated on the process of creating new stuff over here =)

Lots of love,

Renora.

Early WIP; Coat!

Hiya!

As im getting back into things i decided to take a closer look at one of the jackets we got with the IA Kit. 

I loved the jacket BUT... as you can guess i want maximal freedom when it comes to full body outfits hehe. The trousers are cute but we don't have enough standalone jackets in game as is imo so a top version of this would be a nice addition. 

I will spare you the details of the remapping process this monster (to make sure it does not overlap with bott...

CAS Ideas/suggestions ?

Hiya!

I do have some ideas saved for CAS items for a while back and on my IG and Pinterest but wanted to know if you guys have some ideas as well. Something that hasn't been made yet maybe with the new kits or whatever. i'm open to suggestions!

Also, which kits are worth the spend? let me know cuz i have to buy them since i haven't been active for quite awhile on the GC program.

i'm also going to look into my bathroom set (FINE Designs Redux) that i still want to finish. Sin...

Helluuuu! Getting back to things 😱😍

Hiya!

So Friday was my exam for my 2nd trimester at uni. Next week i have a assessment abt my thesis(?) im not sure what the correct term is in English, its a pretty strict report abt something i had do research for that particulair trimester, that i have to present/defend at the end of each trimester. bc im in "adult" uni. Meaning i have loads of selfstudy hours (15-20) + schooldays alternating on fridays and saturdays.

With this im hopefully getting back into creating again but ...

Billing Cycle paused (rest of 2021).

October billing cycle paused.

Hiya!

As previously explained when i re-started my page, i'm not always able to release CC every month. I started with college this September besides my daytime job and still have to figure out how to keep a clean and sustainable schedule with everything that's going on in my life =)

Therefore im pausing October so nobody is getting billed. I must say its hard to go into this new fase of my life. i do 'like' that this education is going to give me more stability en security in the...

Public Release; Cerise Hairs.

Hiya!

I thought the hairstyle we got with CL would also be great for curly hairs! So i made one! Also comes in a kiddo, toddler version. Due to the texture this hair needs, i had to sacrifice the hat texture space and disable hats. Its only compatible with hats that cover the hair completely.

I added an Recolor Accessory (Gloves!) so you can recolor the bandana with all EA's swatches from both hairs of CL. I also ...

Early WIP; 3rd Sept item.

I loved the sweaters we got with CL but thought they would also be supercute as a 'tucked in' version! This was harder than it looks hehe :3 i had to bake parts of the texture and edit it to make sure the tucked in part looks 'tucked in' instead of a texture that is just slapped on another mesh.

Public Release; Denim Essentials Collection.

Hiya!

I’ve always wanted to create a denim collection and with the jeans that  came with DHD i finally got the jeans texture i was waiting for! 

This collection has 16 BGC items (+ 1 override for the god aweful swatch 12 of the OG jeans, who missed a beat on that one EA). I’ve chosen to make separate packages files so i could include proper shadow + bump maps for the multiple ripped variations. I'm madly thankful to joliebean...
