Hey, so, you know the Du Lac Cotehardies? That's the AF and TF dresses. I just did those for CF and they're adorable. There's a Toddler conversion of the mesh, too. Is that overkill? It's semi-historically accurate, but dressing a toddler like that is... that's the tiny satin vest you by for your two-year-old when you get his picture taken. The baby's gonna wear that while the artist works on his portrait and then you're gonna take it off before he spits up on it.

And oh my god did you guys know we can have non-default baby outfits now? That is SO happening, let me tell you internets. Chris Hatch is amazing. (And I don't know why Maxis didn't give us different baby outfits. Babies exist so you can dress them in cute clothes that they'll outgrow in six weeks.)

Er ... the above was me. I really shouldn't do this at 12:40 at night after taking a 2.5 hour drive. ;)

Actually, texture size is meaningless-- it's a way to either get more detail (larger) or save space (smaller), and Cynnix kept the mapping exactly the same on her CU and PU gowns. I already fixed the breast shading for CF cotehardies (pulled pieces from the back) and made those, so they're DONE.

... I guess I could texture-reference the non-belt styles, and just make new textures for toddlers on the belted ones. Still kind of a pain in the butt, but what can you do? I'll see how the neckline and lacing looks on toddlers once I'm done with the current baby-clothes project. (BABY CLOTHES, Morgaine. Your peasants and princes can wear different baby clothes. Your babies can wear long gowns in the winter and just nappies or shirts in the summer. BABY CLOTHES. I may explode.) Ahem. If the neckline looks implausible or the tight laced cotehardie style looks wrong on toddlers, I may as well just reinvent the whole dang wheel and make original textures.

Don't get me wrong, I AM doing more toddler clothes. I've got 84 unisex kirtles done, diapers in 16 colors, and plans for shirts, smocks, and tunics, so the second-littlest Sims will not be neglected, I promise you that.

Male children, on the other hand, male children are getting the short shrift. I gotta get on that.
