Hat Plays Sims

I am willing to take a look at the Bipsouille mesh for you. The stabbity is typically simply a case of the bones not being assigned to the spine so they can curve along with a sim's back. It's not usually a huge deal to fix (barring those few headache inducing monstrosities that sometimes appear in the CC-world). And I'm one of those weirdos that happens to like fixing hairs. This hair appears to only come in adult female size, so that's only one mesh to fix anyway.

On the hat note, I am still working on the crispinette. I hopefully have most of the mesh where I want it now http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c252/Fantasyrogue/SimsCreations/CrispinetteWIP.jpg Still need to fix the braid texture, need to texture the hat itself (veil texture is temporary, I yoinked that off a maxis bridal veil), would like to add more (alpha editable) veils if I can figure out how to make the darn things wrap around properly.

Anyway, don't mean to hijack the post here. On the suitcases, would it not be possible to texture them like wood with latches? They might look a bit more like chests.. chests with a handle and a slightly odd shape, but still.
