A Different Kind Of ICON Fun!
Fennec:
Now that I am getting better at demoediting, I find the need to tweak some costumes to better fit the design in my brain. So I decided to start editing the costume .textures themselves.
My first two are the Zombie shorts and the Unified Field Cape. I always wanted to wear the tattered shorts, but have smooth, regular legs and not be all zombified. As for the cape, I HATED (notice the all caps) the friggin' wrench in the design, so I got rid of it. I think it will fit more concepts now. (Regular version on the left, modified on the right.)
I am already working on more, but I would like feedback, suggestions and/or requests. Maybe those of us doing this could swap files or tips. Thanks! :)

oh my god that looks fantastic! i've always wanted that zombie bottom!!! how can i get it? :)
so you're mostly replacing existing textures, not adding new texture options, and nothing with changing 3-d stuff, right? cuz that's a lot more work and might be beyond current abilities im guessing?
i've always wanted: the starshot cape without the star but retaining the stripe.
also, would it be possible to replace the data for a skin i know i'd never use for an available name like "Grey Test" [tight bottoms, male] with data from "barbarian" [bottoms with skin, female] that had been tweaked to look right on the male frame?
cuz i'd like that, and the same with "Grey Test" [tight tops, male] and "Monstrous Fur" [tight tops, male] - but tweaked to just look like decent chest hair XD

There might be a way, stay tuned at the bottom of this post for a trial. :)

Yes, replacing and editing (and maybe a few new) textures, but not editing the models in any way. Now as you may (or not) know, each costume piece is usually 3 separate files (the main look, the bump map and the mask). Some also have reflection maps. The Unified Field cape above uses 7 files to create the look. With that in mind, I looked into your requests and here's what I found:
The GREY TEST chest and bottoms are one and the same. And there is only the one file, no bump, no mask, no reflect. So I'm not sure what I want to try with it yet.
The hairy chest idea is a good one and I will add it to my list of things to try. :)
The Barbarian male bottoms have 3 files, but modding the female into a male texture will require 4. I am working on it, but it will replace the female options and only be available in DemoEdits. Sorry. I have completed the male port of the Witchblade textures which behave the same way.
(Original female pattern on male body on left, altered version on the right)
I left pasties so the pattern could still be used with the female body, and also because I thought it was cute. ;)

If this is what you had in mind, I'd like you to be a guinea pig for me and try this link to my SkyDrive. I've never used it before, but maybe it will work.

OMG YES! *squeal* now i want that metal-skin too.
Okay soooooo... I am just about the least technologically inclined person evar. I downloaded the texture library, but what am I supposed to do with it, or where do I extract it to?
also... *cringe* I cant figure out how to do a demo-edit. I was looking for a beginners guide with VERY CLEAR how-to directions but I couldn't find one [but I'll look harder]. I have another demo-edit file ready [i think?] but don't know where to put it or open it with...
I'm sorry that I'm just about the dumbest guinea pig.
