    I love the Aigis photos you took, she looks so pretty! If I may ask how did you get the lighting and her mouth/teeth to look so good? Mine aren't the best with realistic teeth and stuff ^^"

    Thank you so much! While my scene composition is still poor/uninspired, the tools keep getting better and I have been getting better with lighting concepts.

    Please of course make sure the vast majority of your praise goes towards OniEkohvius, the importer responsible for such a fantastic model. I have a lot of fun wasting away the hours with his models...even if I can only output actually-decent shots once in a blue moon. Aigis herself represents the pinnacle so far of his Persona imports; who knows if we'll see other Reload models in the future? They're so nice in the actual game and seeing them transfer over so well is incredible.

    Other praise of course goes to asset/plugin wizards such as moyashi (postprocessing), HuntingSuccubus (celshader), ChainedStar (toon skybox), DemonLord (skybox coloring), Charlestone (beach), and a few others I'm forgetting.

    I'll have a detailed answer for you regarding the scene setup in a direct message.

    Hey there. In your postprocessing plugin review you mentioned a Sally FXCUAshader. I've looked for it but could not find it. Can you help me out?

    CUAshaderMod - Plugins -

    More or less experimental Plugin to change the shader/color/alpha on a CUA atom. (CustomUnityAsset) Can be used for artistic effects or as debug tool to mess around with shaders. To modify the color or alpha I recommend to set something like...
    hub.virtamate.com hub.virtamate.com

    You'll have to do some tedious swapping around with the various options that pop up for whatever CUA you apply it to, but every now and then you find something that significantly improves the look. So far I find it most useful on some older CUA hair imports.

    I've finally made a MEGA link that SHOULD have everything needed to recreate the most(ly) recent version of my custom Rarity look!

    Sorry it's not a VAR, it's a mess I know. ;_; I would have loved to have something more elegantly packaged for her, but alas.

    hi i like your mlp models i'm trying to make a good anthro character like in hoofbeat 2 and it would be tremendously helpful if you could help with the models

    Well, in both cases I currently have examples of (the Rarity and the Pinkie), they're just imperfect edits of existing models released by OniEkohvius. For Rarity in particular there's also a problem of her eyebrow clothing being sourced from a creator who's since been removed from the Hub. Additionally, trying to make it just like the webcomic you mentioned will be tough because what I've posted is pretty much the best I can manage. We can only get so close to 2D from a 3D space ?

    However, I'd be happy to help you get closer to what I have as best I can, so I'll take it to DMs to see about doing that.
