Blade & Soul - Courtesan (Yun Outfit) Mod

Following two consecutive Gon mods, I think it is time to do one for another race. Therefore, we have the Yun Courtesan mod in this week's post, since a patron requested for this about half a month ago.

There are also some requests for Gon male outfit mods but I am not quite sure how to make a male character outfit sexier. 😰 According to the patron, making the pants into swimming trunks and having open chest shirt can do the trick. But wouldn't that just be swim wear that players can buy in game? 😵 I remember a piece of swim wear (Summer Time) that totally fits that description. 😆

However, I still check through the Gon male outfits that the patron listed but unfortunately, none of those can have their pants trimmed. The fact is, most of the male outfits in the game have loose clothing and there is basically no mesh structure under those loose pants or shirts. This means that trimming or removing them would leave arms or leg with missing parts. 😦

I also do not pay much attention to male outfit so I am not sure of what other male outfits I can play around with. So I guess I will skip male outfits for the time being. 😰

Well, coming back to the Yun Courtesan. The information about this outfit can be found in the Jin Courtesan post, so I will not repeat those details here. Instead, let's immediately take a look at the original version in the images below.

The Yun Courtesan looks exactly the same as the Jin's and Gon's version.

The red rose by the waist, laced half shirt, orange half dress, translucent stocking and metallic frame are similarly present in the Yun outfit.

For the Yun mod, I did the same changes as I did in the Jin and Gon. That includes trimming the orange dress, removing the laced shirt, as well as the stockings.

Although the outfits of the three races looks the same, the Yun version took more work because some of the skin layers are split at difficult areas. the shoulders and upper arm connection, for example, are split into three parts and trying to smooth out the color at their edges was a nightmare. The other troublesome area is the crotch/thighs/butt region. Even after many tries, some artifacts still remain. 😨

The color smoothing is not an issue in the original outfit because those areas were initially hidden beneath the laced layer and stocking. Those areas initially also have darker tone because of shadows, so recoloring them to normal skin color is necessary after the pieces are removed.

Let's check out the modified outfit in the images below.

The image above shows the outfit after the stockings have been removed and dress trimmed.

The laced shirt has been trimmed to leave the only the collar portion so it can hold the beautiful trinket at the back.

Rear View - Modified Outfit
The left butt cheek sticking out after the mod looks cute. 😈

Maybe because of the inherent Yun body structure? 😆

The left side view looks really 'clean' except for the metallic frame and two strings. 😅

Well, we have reached the end of this post. Enjoy the video which was capture in the new Moon Refuge map and take a closer look at that cute left hip. 😆.

I apologize for the color in the video if you find it kinda off. That is because I tried to remove the inherent blueish color that is present in every scenes in the map.
