Let's have a thread about content creation!
What have you made or sold recently? Have you been getting better at your craft? How much money have you made in the past week?
I've made about 7.5kL in the past week or so from my store, which is the most I've ever had after I put out some products for the kemono. It's not a huge amount or anything, but it's a nice little accomplishment for a small-time artist.
Let's hear your success (Or failure, so we can help turn them into success) stories, and talk about making stuff.

jesus christ why didnt i realize there was an sl board
i've been plucking away at this using project bento to make a higher quality and anime/furry-friendly centaur body. in the image the default SL mesh is visible, and it's the exact height that it normally is -- meaning you won't be 50ft off the ground like the BC. With shape editing you can actually get it nearly as tall as the small bc centaur if you want that, though.
it fits seamlessly with all bodies i've tested it with thus far (kemono, av2.0, human mesh bodies, default, etc etc) and I'll be including custom deformers for compatability with the kemono's shoulders as well
i spent 4 hours last week editing the mGroin attachment point bone (new with bento) on every animation i made to find the optimial place to allow you guys to use unrigged genitals on the taur's behind so you're welcome

thanks
my wires are not gonna win any awards but I've been focused on having the limbs deform in a satisfactory fasion, especially where they connect to the body because horse's knees and elbows are actually slightly embedded into their bodies, making topology awkward when you take animation into consideration.
might not be final wires, i've been squinting at the shoulders while animating lately and I'm not 100% pleased. I'm taurfag and i'd be insulting myself if this av turns out less than perfect.

No, those wires are good.
Most mesh horses I've tried have not enough polygons and end up with garbage deformations.
The KOT centaur had good wires, but suffered from other problems.
Keep at it, looking forward to it. What's your store?

considering I'll be freely giving out a rigging/animation dummy without needing applications or anything, yes, probably eventually
but I won't be the one to make it
the most i've considered making is rigged genitals BUT LL has been really fucking weird about its quad/feral animal sexuality rules lately and i've been nervous to. but it works fine with unrigged bits (holes or poles), much better than the KOT or BC taur did.
tl;dr: i'm pro-lewd but too nervous to make it myself, when you get the dummy pple are welcome to go wild.

Its a totally different texture from before so it shouldnt have happened. I'm looking at it now though and I realize its a weirdness with the hue changes. It only affected the orange and the red but I'll update them to fix it.

I own the human avatar as a budget option for a couple of alts. Don't use the head, though.
The fuckiness of the alpha cuts and the skinniness of the legs makes it somewhat less compatible with standard sized mesh clothing than you're implying, though. Standard sizing is going the way of the dinosaur anyway and frankly I'm glad.

Well I'm a fucking idiot. Apparently my omega box didnt unbox properly so all it ever gave me was advanced skin and head, not the top and bottom that i'd use for clothing and tattoos and such.
So yeah, making it a tattoo is very doable and i'll work on it post haste.

Any tips or tricks for converting a mesh outfit to other bodies? I've got an outfit, rigged up and ready to go for the Maitreya. But I'd like to also fit it to other bodies, some of the lesser known ones that have rigging models available but could use more outfits. I know there's proportional editing, but I'm hoping there's some other way to do it faster/easier.
I know many stores sell for multiple bodies, so there's a decent chance there's some technique I'm unaware of.

There are guides on youtube on how to do it from everyone's favorite righteous pirate, but she will teach you everything wrong because she insists on using old versions of everything and refusing to learn from actual industry pros. She's a nice lady but jesus christ her methods are more effort than just learning how to make your own clothes the correct way.
