...This concept started as a joke, but I'm thinking that I've finally found the story behind it. Maybe I can write it now... :)
ETA: Added a link to a higher-definition version of the cover image without text. (And I can see I'm still not done fiddling with the materials on his damn shirt. In fact, the shirt itself is in question now. [muttering] Never mind. Can't make a judgment call on this when I haven't even had my tea yet...)
ETA 2: No, not this shirt either. (I mean, dammit, I like looking at pecs as much as the next lass or lad, but the cut on this shirt isn't right for this angle of light, or for the way it drapes when animated. Dammitall, why do all Daz's men's shirts have to be so crap?)
(from an earlier rant on this subject:) (re: @rembrandtswife‘s comment [”Find that man a GOOD shirt, because his CHEST deserves it.”]: well, not arguing…
…But finding a decent shirt at all on Daz is the challenge. Some of the ones that seem like they might have possibilities are just frustrating, because they either aren’t dForce enabled (that being the draping and animation engine) or they’re just badly made.
The one below would be typical. (“’What, do you call this a sleeve? It is like a demi-cannon, carved up and down like an apple tart.’”)
(…sigh) There's too much else going on today to go any further down this train of thought. But most of the shirts that fit at all acceptably are very idiomatic (i.e. obviously “pirate shirts” or whatever…). It just makes my head hurt. :/
