I'm having some issues with making wife beater, er.. Tank tops for men. A normal size male avatar it certainly looks fine, but I come into some serious stretching issues when a bulked up beefcake avatar wears them... Any ideas or suggestions on where the tank shoulder lines should fall to prevent this??

TY so much

perhaps make an alt to do modelling, stretch it to your hearts content so you dont screw up your normal one, thats what i was doing for my clothes

Yes, I do... Unfortunantly it seems no matter where I cut the lines (arm holes) it stretches horribly for very muscular avatar.. I use a few to test. So... I personally like the buff avatars.. but they are a pain to fit..

yeah i know what you mean , ive been making clothes for a while for myself and have found that worry, although , i dont look like a pyrmid turned upside down and legs shoved on it , but i have found this annoying thing before.

I use chip midnight's templates , robin wood's , and the standard sl supplied ones depending on the complexity of the design.
