'Nicole' swimsuit revamped
the first swimsuit i ever made in SL for myself was this 'Nicole'. it was my very favourite of all my designs, but the SL version was a bit of a botched compromise with the bird's wing not reaching down as far as the leg, the blue looking a little washed-out and the wobbly bit being too far up to avoid the join in SL pieces. i took it out of my shop a while ago as it was annoying me intensely.
yesterday, i decided to revamp it. i made the bird how it should be, moved the wobbly bit down, added shadow around the cleavage and back, made the blue bluer, added another distant seagull, moved the strap away from the neck more and moved the logo along. doesn't sound like much, but i really like it now. i still can't really draw a satisfactory 'crimped cloth' effect along the back of the wings, so it still looks best on Nicole, but you get the idea.
