So I was messing with most of the skins on here in one way or another and ended up really liking the 'Naughty Blond' skin by donnyxh based on the model by maliwei777, except that it was way too colorful for my goth sensibilities, and since the bra looked painted on I figured it would be fun to experiment with, thinking maybe I could make her top look more like a bandeau. I've never attempted to open up arc / dds files so this was all an experiment, and because the top texture is literally just painted on with no geometry even with the change I think the model would need to be unwrapped again or I'd need to try and guess it a little in Photoshop some more. It mostly comes off looking cool IMO except that the spec on her chest ruins the effect, and if I had a bit more experience with modding I could probably fix that pretty easy by opening the spec (still learning the ropes) but for now this will do as a version one.
There are no facial animations in the cut scenes, but I think that was an issue with the original model, not this recolor (will need to confirm). If it was just me messing up the cutscene file I could fix that pretty quickly by unpacking and repacking the arc.
All set up for Fluffy 5000, just throw it in the mod folder. Replaces default STARS outfit.

(For future reference, what's the best host for this sort of thing?
Also happy to hear feedback about ways to improve the skin further since yall have way more experience than me. One thing I was considering is actually opening the base model up so I can remove the nipple protrusion and maybe add a little fabric, and then rewrap it if I can be bothered. Can anybody point me in the right direction for actual model unpacking/modification and what that process looks like?)
