Nyeng!

So far my re-write for Mary-Anne includes two things she’d been lacking - a job, and a hobby.  That was one of the painfully obvious problems with her, before - she didn’t really have anything to do.  Now I’m picturing her as a carpenter/handy-girl, so she might as well dress the part.

This costume change was originally just going to be for the winter-themed short I’ve been planning, but now might be a little more permanent, with a few changes.  Instead of long-johns, she’d have a t-shirt, and she’d also have heavy work boots instead of homemade squirrel-shoes.

In Maya, the costume change might also make things easier.  With more of her body covered up, I won’t have to worry as much about corrective shapes.  Baggy clothes, if I’m using nCloth, also means that I don’t have to worry about getting the skin weights just right, to prevent the clothes from intersecting her skin.  And the boots will make my life easier, just for the fact that I won’t have to worry about her toes any more.
