    1. There are always complaints about too much skimpwear in the store.

    2. There is never enough skimpwear in the store.

    It sounded a little more modern than the alternate:  Vicki in a frumpy housedress in the kitchen holding a frying pan.

    Pretty sure I can find Vicki in a lumpy jumpsuit with a wench too if I went looking for it...

    A different character than Vicky, and the jumpsuit is only lumpy is a couple of places, but you get the idea. wink

    Indeed. The background is a screenshot from game American Truck Simulator, and it was a gag picture created when players in the game's forums were discussing potential upgrading of the NPC meshes in a future patch.

    Do people not realize how dangerous a cast iron frying pan is?!?! Has no one here but me seen Disney's Tangled? Fantasy author Patricia Wrede wrote a short story about an enchanted frying pan years ago. My husband never tells people he's in the doghouse when I get annoyed with him--it's always, "She's coming after me with the +20 Frying Pan of Doom!"

    But this thread is great! You quick-witted folks, keep it up, please!

    And how DO you use a trans map to make clothes "More holey than righteous" as my preacher grandpa would say?

    I love Patricia Wrede's stuff as well, especially the Dealing with Dragons series, but the best magical frying pan weilder right now, for my money, is Erin Solstice, the magical Innkeeper with the Flying Frying Pan Of Justice in Pirateaba's wonderful web serial THE WANDERING INN.(try it!  It's addictive!)

    You mean to say that vast new reserves of polygons have been discovered, allowing outfilts to provide better coverage and looser fit without increased cost?  So we only need skin textures from the neck up now I guess.

    ...I had a character in an old D&D campaign who weilded a +4 cast iron  skillet.   Did 1- 8 +4 damage.  She was pretty good with it too.  Enhanced her cooking skill as well.

    Or Samwise Gamgee  in the Fellowship of the Ring!  In case you missed it, he's using a frying pan while fighting Orcs in Moria.  Check out right about the 2:45-2:50 minute mark.  "I think I'm getting the hang of this."  LOL!!!

    Converting clothes to " holy" wear is all about the black and white jpg used under the Cutout Opacity in the Surfaces tab. The white part of the image is the positive or visible surface. The black is invisible. So,if you paint a black line or shape on that image with a photo editor, you are effectively erasing that portion of the clothing. It's easy and fun to play with...give it a go. PS...just remember to save your edited image under a new name.

    Yep.  I take my clothes into photoshop for modifications all the time and am surprised that more people don't do it.  If you just want to simple things like trim sleeves or add holes, there'sa really nice free script called Tailor's Chalf from mcasual that let's you place the cut lines in DS itself https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts4/mcjtailorschalk

    Hey cool...I hadn't heard of that script before.

    mcasual has so many amazing scripts that going to his pages is something akin to sensory overload.  While many are designed specifically for animation, his posing and element placing scripts, like makeheadcam, which puts a camera on a character's head and allows you to "see" exactly what they're looking at in a scene, are extrraordinarily useful, and there's no one else who's done half as much with utilities that let you shape and create original objects and clothing inside DAZ studio..

    Thanks for the link Cybersox, some of the scripts there look very very useful.

    And just in case MCasual reads this -- thanks so much for your work!

    I can tell that there is not enough skimpwear when I have to model some myself.
