Bagnu Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 I'm really frustrated. I see many head and body skins, and found two I really like , but don't know how remove the neck seam. I would happily buy one that has both the head and the body, but they all seem so "perfect", and I like texture. Pores, freckles, moles. Etc, etc... I have a Maitreya Lara Body, and a LeLutka Erin head. What I find too is removing a demo skin can be a nightmare. What am I doing wrong there?

Carina Heartsong Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Have you tried The Skinnery? They have skins with freckles but I don't know about moles. Or maybe try BOM? With BOM you could buy a freckles/mole layer to go on your skin. Removing a demo skin, you need to reapply whatever skin you were wearing before you tried on the demo. I struggled with that too for a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurel Aurelia Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Make sure you are wearing the right version of your head. The maitreya body works with the version of the lelutka head without the (SL) tagged at the end. That should give you a seamless look. If you still have a seam play around with the neck size in your maitreya hud. But if it's purely a skin issue. You really do want to buy a head skin from the same place as your body for a seamless look. If you are doing bom, keep in mind you will need to wear another bom body skin for the other one to go away. There is no taking off a bom body skin as that is one of the things that an avatar needs to have to be an avatar ( other things include: a shape , hair base, and system eyes) . Another thing to keep in mind, a lot of skin stores use another tattoo layer that you must wear on top of both face tattoo layer and body. Post us a picture of your neck issue and perhaps your worn tab so that maybe we can have a better idea of what is going on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lillith Hapmouche Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 (edited) Are you using BOM or appliers? General rule of thumb: don't expect a match if you mix a head skin by Designer #1 and a body by Designer #2. But that might even be a thing of the past, as LeLutka seems to have a new thing going on with a "universal neck blender"... this: Besides that, it has been suggested in a previous thread, that you should check the already available "imperfection" material layers on the head or work with extra tattoo layers to add to your desired look. Yeah, extra costs, but worth it. 9 minutes ago, CaraTriple said: Have you tried The Skinnery? Sadly, that brand seems to be notorious for neck lines lately.

I'm going to try a session body skin, as that's what's on my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagnu Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 (edited) I managed to get it fairly close. Am I being too picky with the slight discrepancy? Both are session skins. Edited August 6, 2020 by Bagnu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurel Aurelia Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 @Bagnu That might be a materials issue. Try turning down materials on the skin layer of face. On the hud it should be at the bottom of one of the first tabs. I should be home in a few hours so if you are still having the issue, I'd be more than happy to help you in world with it.

MaxMare Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 With Evolution heads, there are 2 different fits in the package, the _SL is for Legacy body and the other one is for Maitreya. Just wear the appropriate version and same skin tone and neck seam will be gone:) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxMare Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Yes, LeLutka Erin is Evolution line, I use it as well...try a redelivery, there has to be 2 versions inside, btw they released some major updates recently, so you could benefit from getting a new copy anyhow....text is the same for both, but Legacy fit has _SL suffix, you need the other one If you continue to have issues, I suggest to join LeLutka group, very helpful community!!

Emma Krokus Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 (edited) If the above doesn't remove the neck seam, try this if you wear a BOM mesh body and BOM mesh head - I found this free item amazingly good at covering seams: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Apricot-Paws-SLUV-Neck-ExtenderFix-Freebie/14958878 - use the Apricot Paws: Ladies SLUV Neck Fix v2 BoM in this pack. Don't worry - it's not just for furries - it will take on your skin tone automatically. Emma Edited August 6, 2020 by Emma Krokus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My girl alt uses a Skinnery skin on Lelutka Erin and Maitreya, though admittedly it's an old one (Blair) and BOM-only. But it is definitely the sort of thing that @Bagnu is looking for, with a very high level of detail and realism. And no neck seam. I think that's an issue only with their new tones. There are other advantages of switching to BOM; the ability to use multiple tattoos to add extra details, for example the sorts of tings that Izzie Button does; freckles, moles, veins, stretch-marks and so forth. Indra here is wearing a clevage-enhancer. With BOM you wouldn't have to settle between just one or two of these extras, you could have lots, and make yourself truly individual. Once you do switch to BOM it makes everything so much easier going forward. Your head is BOM already (thats the only way the Evolution heads are) and switching Maitreya is now as simple as just clicking a button on the HUD. The only other thing you have to remember is to take off your body alpha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
