Unless you’re making clothes with a flat colour you will find that you have seam lines down the sides, arms and legs that depending upon what fabric/colour design you have can be quite noticeable.
Summer is here, supposedly (it’s been raining quite a bit recently), so I decided to create something bright and summery to wear.
My idea started with just creating some shorts and a top, but I extended the design to include a bikini, swimming costume and flip flops.
The shorts and top are created as pants and shirt, in a similar manner as the previous outfits, just cutting out sections in different positions to give the desired look. The bikini and swimming costume are both made as underpants and undershirts.
This is the first clothing I created in SL. It’s created from a shirt, pants and prim skirt.
Tip #1: It’s important to make “glitch” pants for any outfit you make that has a prim skirt, as if SL is being laggy the skirt can take a while to load, and you don’t want to appear half naked in front of everyone. (That sounds like a bad dream….)
The outfit is based upon the tutorials Creating Clothes with GIMP, Flexi Skirts Part 1 and Flexi Skirts Part 2 by Natalia Zelmanov.
