I've been watching all of the bodies for a couple months now, (Only been playing since the end of January) and am currently using Exnem's. The new screenies of Corwyns look very good, so we shall see how they come along in the release. I am very partial to the Bab body and used it for a while until Eye Candy came out but when it comes right down to the choice, I prefer a more shapely form, so I continue with Exnem's. I suppose at the moment my ideal would be a blend of Bab and Eye Candy.

A wonderful supply of armors and clothing for Eye Candy (Exnem's) is accumulating and I see Bab is adding some of the good armors to their stocks as well. Then while looking around, I ran into a couple downloads for Corwyn's. I think the competition is heating up. In the end, it all comes to personal preference and it's really nice that we have some good ones from which to choose.

I think the pictures are a great help with deciding what body mod to take. What bump texture are you talking about? Maybe YOU can provide comparison pictures for that ?

That pictures are nice, but totally wrong. Because you make them in place without directional lighting. You can't see bump texture like that and all models looks equally lousy. Try making some shots in dungeon in light of torch(es) - they will look much more different.

Suggestion noted, but here's the thing:

1. I don't think the pictures are "wrong", because ... well, I took them from Oblivion so how can they be "wrong"? I didn't make any different settings for those shots. Directional lighting, whether it indeed does not exists, is all due to the game. On a side note, I think there IS directional lighting, but it was daytime and so saturation is high.

2. Not sure what you mean by "bump texture", and whether anyone can see them on the daytime in the outside I have no control over.

3. Having all models looks "equally lousy" is a good thing. Wait, let me try to explain. First off, "equally" is how comparisons are suppose to be made. No advantage for any specific mod. Equal footing and all. Secondly, "lousy" is a bit misleading. These shots shows how I see the mods in my game. Granted I don't have a high-end system, but it's alright. The shots were taken in the daytime and even though lighting changes depending on the cell your in, players will spend a lot, if not most, of their time outside of caves, house, forts, etc. (which aren't all lighted the same way anyways). Also, in my point of view, seeing the "lousy" end of the spectrum just means that your character can look better than these and probably no worse.

4. I didn't make this thread to endorse any body mods. This is not an advertisement thread. I never had the thought of having to make them look good. I took them on a regular, sunny, daytime. If they look bad compared to vanilla, then don't use them. If they can make their body mods look great in "lousy" conditions, then that's awesome. This thread is not here to judge.

Did that make any sense at all? Ugh, back to work ...
