Update notes from previous versions:

New version is v3.4 – minor update to fix socks/gloves ‘sticking’ issue

Last major update was Version 3.0, notes:

• HUD minimized state smaller
• Materials enabled with adjustable shine level
• Long nails made longer
• Shoulders smoothened
• Nipple colors more muted
• Extra alpha options
• Save slots for alpha
• Save slots for layers
• All layers off button added
• Improved normals on neck
• Alpha Auto Hiding function implemented

The best bits:

• The body is gorgeous – teardrop breasts that look amazing big or small, and a gorgeous round ass
• The 3 layers (tattoo/underwear and clothing) don’t glitch, meaning you can wear all three at once without clothing disappearing!
• SLink feet compatibility means you won’t lose your shoe collection
• Omega compatibility opens up a world of skin, tattoo and clothing options
• The fingernails are individually mapped – which means, each nail can have a different colour/style on it! Check out THESE from AviCandy for example!!!
• The modelling of the body is close to the standard SL skeleton, which makes it easier to wear normal mesh clothing (with the help of the alphas of course)
• The Alphas – the pieces over the breasts make wearing low cut tops a dream, and wearing low cut mesh pants is so much easier.

The worst bits:

• The alphas are great
• The neck fix option still leaves a visible seam (though it is much better than others)
• The skin tones don’t seem to perfectly match my Glam Affair skins, but that’s just being picky really
• The wrist bones – Now this is a personal thing, but the ‘bumps’ on the wrists, although biologically accurate, detract from the smoothness of the hands I feel
• Hands include only one pose/style of hand

Best suited to:

Users who like a petite body (although I have seen some awesomely curvy shapes with this body), a good body for new users because of the simple way the HUD is set out and definitely a good body for lovers of Glam Affair skins, they look stunning! Also, if you’re a LeLutka Mesh Head fan, this is the body to get, hands down!
