I just uploaded my first test for a new method of doing head textures (and body textures too, though I haven't gotten that far yet). Have quite a ways to go yet on this skin but I'm so geeked with how the head looks I thought I'd share :)

Chip, I've just returned to SL after a long hiatus (remember me? hmm). And it strikes me that no matter how much time passes or how many other designers or products come out you never cease to amaze me.

Your skins are so delicate. And I appreciate the time and detail that you, especially, put into the darker skin tones in your skin line. I know how difficult it is to do. You make it look so easy!

Good stuff.

Once again, your style is unmistakably on the mark! Can't wait to see the rest of the body :)

Very nice Chip. Skin has a lush range of color that makes it truly natural looking. I also am very impressed with how you have the bhoundry between face and hair, very subtle.

Thanks you guys! I'll upload some body shots when I get that far along. The head is a tough act to follow, hehe.

Welcome back Aemelia :)

Oh, wow.

Some of your older skins I'd love to see with this new head style; that being my main objection to them currently.

an unbelievable quality of work

Fantastic! You must have some wonderful models. Your images translate so beautifully to SL.

The work you do is inspirational, and having shared some of your tools i can only say you have had a great influence on the way my avatar looks. The head template you posted upped the quality of my own skin threefold!

Without a doubt- you're the leader in SL skins.

Noooo, don't throw out your copy of Photoshop! Think of all the fun you'd miss :)

Thanks for all the kind words, everyone. Here's an updated shot showing some of the body.

Probably tweak a few more things before I release it, but it's more or less finished now :) Thanks again for the encouragement!

The details on this skin are incrediblicious... what especially stands out to me is how great it looks compared to the eyes (and she does need better eyes more worthy of such a skin).
