Kou's Oblivion Trap Mod

[Kou-chan]

As I said in my welcome thread:

--------------
I've been floating around a few forums over the passed let's say... five years or so. I model and texture weapons, armor and clothing for Oblivion. For a couple years, my niche has been making apparel for what are called traps, or males which closely resemble females. I actually made a race with a custom crafted body and uploaded it to the Nexus, along with a wealth of items to go along with it, but I was subsequently removed from that site due to a comical oversight on my part which lead to a grave misunderstanding.

I know my niche is rather narrow, but my skills are broad and I'd still like an arena in which I can vent any creativity I have, as the current forum I frequent has low, incredibly specific traffic.

I'll be releasing an updated version of my mod on a different site, and if I get a somewhat warm welcome here, I'll release it here too. If not, then I suppose I'd have to be on my way :C

Oh, when the CS comes out for Skyrim, I'll be transferring most of this stuff, including hopefully the body, to that game.

Here are a few examples of some of the work I have done. Most of these outfits/weapons are completely original meshing and texturing. Some utilize a little bit of vanilla resources, but they are all mostly my work. Click one of the names (they are all photobucket links) to see them.

Merr Leotard
Merr Leotard (back)
Dearly Stars
Elwyn
Kureha
Fitted Legion Armor
Illusionist's Robe (mostly default)

Yes, the character in the screenshots is male, sorry if this makes anyone uncomfortable :C

That looks like some excellent work!
And it's definitely a nice change from all the "Bigger Boobs Here!!" mods that are floating around.

I'm looking forward to seeing your stuff for Skyrim, it might make it worthwhile to bring back my shape changing and gender bending Dark Seducer from Oblivion.

Also, if I may ask, why this particular niche?

Thanks for the feedback! @u@

Why this niche? I don't know. I just make stuff for things I like. My modding efforts have evolved from strictly female to strictly trap in the last couple years. It just happened that way.

I have yet to put up full body pictures of a couple outfits due to the character's maleness being incredibly evident, especially the Merr Leotard. I concede that not everybody wants to see stuff like that, but if anyone would like to see full versions of any outfits I made I can share them through PM.

I've released this mod on another site, but before release here, I'd have to make my mod non-nude (it has the option to wear just the body without clothes), which would be a chore when the modding utilities for Skyrim are so close to being released. I'll probably just wait to release when I transfer everything to Skyrim, and make it non-nude there.

*crosses fingers for being able to transfer the body to Skyrim*

There is actually nothing in the rules against nudity, not that I found at least. It's just sexually oriented stuff that's not allowed, then again some insist that nudity in itself is sexual so I'm actually not sure how to interpret the rules here.

I've never done this sort of modding so I don't know the procedures but what about optional nudity?
Like how Better Bodies has a nude and a non-nude option. Just seems a shame to have to cut out something like that altogether.

I was concerned with the amount of minors on this site, that's all.

I'm working on another suit of armor that'll hold me over until the modding utilities for Skyrim release in January.

Spoiler:

It's Lenneth's armor from Valkyrie Profile. I have a bit of the cuirass completed, and I still have much to do before this armor is complete :3

And here's just another screenshot of my character since I think the outfit I made looks cute on em

Spoiler:

No word from the Nexus yet if they'll allow a re-release of my mod on their site. >.>
