Need tips & advices for combining a male mesh head with female mesh body?

[Nymphaea85]

I'm looking for a combination of a male mesh head and female mesh body that does not produce a large gap around the neck.

I'm aware that there is no way avoiding this to happen. But I'm hoping to find a combination that just creates a small seam between the head and neck so I can hide it with a collar or so.

Not sure if this is possible anyway, but I'm grateful for any hint!

Thanks in advance

This may not work ... but have you given the free Apricot Paws neck fix a try? I've used this with CLASSIC (ex TMP) male mesh body and GENUS group female gift head where there was a gap.

There's a BOM version in this too.

If you didn't already - check Lelutka River. It's unisex and comes with 2 versions, one has a neckfit for the female bodies, other for the male ones, while everything else is the same between both.

Thank you both so much!

Leluka River actually did the job - this was exactly what I was looking for!

 

One last question on this subject: I can't find a solid skin for my female maitreya body + V-tech. Most male skins I see tend to look overly muscular - at least for my taste. Any advice?

I love the River head so much. I don't think I'll find anything else for me after this one.

I'm not inworld right now to check, but I think Pink Fuel may have something for that.  For male skins, I remember seeing Clef de Peau have a soft version for less pronounced muscles.

Great find! Thanks, Eddy!

The Pink Fuel skins look beautiful. Sadly I can't see any male-looking skins in the shop. But I'm sure there are workarounds with female skins on male bodies (chest area seems to be the problem).

These are the closest I've seen for males.  I'm unsure if they updated to BoM.

For now, I'm wearing a female skin with a male body and covered the chest area with a tattoo. One day, when I get more comfortable with Photoshop and Gimp, I'll make a tattoo layer to look like a double total mastectomy to wear under lighter tattoos.
