i’m still trying to make them look better
but i should get around to saying “enough” and complete them

It’s very easy to get caught in the trap of making something better… but there’s always something you could do better. Remember: “Perfect” is the enemy of “Good”.

Are there any actual problems with the boots as they exist now?

making a figure instead of a prop, takes longer.
i have to model the shoes like ( B ) to get them to look like (C) once Aiko puts them on
and after dozens of tweaks the shape got a little bumpy, as in (A)
but i fixed that issue yesterday

as they are now there’s still problems that appear when Aiko twists her thighs or shin ( D )

and the UV/texture map is not done yet (E)

also Aiko didn’t finish doing boots balancing tests (F)

These look worth waiting for!

These look worth waiting for!

maybe today!

i fixes the back-of-the-thigh issue and the sole

now, if i do the UV map, i think i have something i can release

... oops there’s also the 2 or 3 morphs i want to add so they fit different Aiko variations

guess the release will be tomorrow
got to add 2 or 3 morphs
and include the optional buttons and straps
maybe also add a morph for platform height and heel length

(that’s an animated gif )

Gangnam Style !

since i didn’t put much work in this (meaning an hour) i am not responsible for any side effects caused by viewing this

(ok maybe 2 hours )

( also, please note that Aiko did this voluntarily )

( if you have no idea what this is about then YouTubeSearch for “Psy - Gangnam Style MV” )

Lol.

These look awsome Casual!!!

Cant wait! :D

~ tall boot news ~~ tall boot news ~~ tall boot news ~~ tall boot news ~~ tall boot news ~

the UV mapping of the boot is done
it’s not ideal but it’s usable
( mostly for, say, adding a bump map for wrinkles )

now before publishing , i have to add morphs to the upper part of the boot and stockings

who knows, it may even be possible to use the boots with the Victorias

, so, today or tomorrow seems to be possible release dates

the 4th image is a victory dance for the fact that the boots work well with all (except one) of the Aiko3 Aikiyu poses

the dance animation ( apparently the forum’s support for animated gif thumbnails was lost yesterday or today )

I’m really looking forward to these for Aiko. They are wonderful!

Thank you for doing so much for our beloved Aiko!

~ OTK Boots news ~~ OTK Boots news ~~ OTK Boots news ~~ OTK Boots news ~~ OTK Boots news ~

so i made the 2 morphs needed to adapt the boots to different Aiko3 flavors

if i don’t discover problems, this means the boots will be posted in the next hour !

the name of the boots should be ... hmm not sure yet

(it was mcjA3OTKBoots but i dont know ... )

Badabing ! The boots are ready !

so that’s the boots as seen in recent images on this thread

soon(ishingly) i should post a version or an add-on figure for the buttons and the little straps

and i may make a version without the platform-soles

link you ask?

Thanks again Casual!!!

welcome!

next challenge is to add undistorted buttons and straps

i think i’ll make them zero-sized, and inflate them using a morph
to the foot and toe bending wont warp them
