It’s pumpkin season guise.
Cheeks! LOL, Well, this took a bit of time, but overall, I like how the body bandages have turned out. All of this is my own work and I am so glad I found the tools to create these mods. And the moments of focus that allowed me to learn how to use them lol. The burn scars look so good too thanks to Substance painter! But, yeah, these are the full-body bandages. This won't be released until the full mod is done, but you'll get the arm wraps with the Graham version of the clothing I'll release SOON.
Cute vampur!

Bam! The armor Mesh/Mat/Tex is done! At least I think it is. I may make the shirt dirtier if I think it needs it after taking a look in-game. Yes, hand skin will be part of Joshua's full outfit. However, due to the unique way I got his head to use my custom textures, that won't be released as a player skin, at least not for a while until after his full mod is released. These will also be released in 1k, 2k, and 4k options. The mesh is on the higher poly side, but it will look really bad at lower poly counts. Now I just gotta do a bit of creation kit wizardry. Stay Tuned!
I want to first thank everyone who has been following me, and showing support as I learn the ropes of fallout and skyrim modding. I have been a mod author since oblivion, and always kinda felt shy about distributing my mods, as I'm the type of person to always question my own skills. It's counter-productive, I know. But I have always loved learning about how to make mods of all sorts. Today I realized, or actually read, that the ideas I have typed up or spoken about, are going to be utilized in another mod recreating Joshua Graham. And it's going to be on Nexus. Well, it already is, but Joshua isn't yet implemented. Now, I have not released any actual storyline, because why spoil things, so that will be quite different. Unfortunately, since I don't really want to deal with any drama, I am making the mod private. I'll make some videos of game play when it get's further updates, and if you are interested in it, just let me know and I'll give you a link to the finished product. Free of course. I just... feel defeated by looking into the other mod, reading the comments. why fucking bother?
Thank you for the many messages of encouragement we have received. It’s clear that the Tumblr community has an important role for so many people; my heart breaks at some of the things I have read.
This is a quick update to let everyone know that the development of the transfer tool is going well. Further update on Monday, and I plan to post some details of how the transfer will work.
Last week, I expected to be able to announce the new site already by now. There will be a small delay of 1-2 days while the tech guys get everything ready. I’ll post more info on Monday in the afternoon (EST). I apologise if it is frustrating waiting, but this has to be done right.

Some good news, I’ve been talking to two developers now and got them working together, we just had a meeting with the guys behind an existing large (millions of users) site similar to Tumblr, with a vibrant and open-minded community, and more importantly, it has open-minded owners who believe in free speech. They think we can get something done here to rescue the whole community.
I’m not allowed to reveal the site name yet. I can tell you it’s mainstream, open to everyone, open-minded and welcoming. (It’s not WordPress or any site owned by Facebook or Twitter. It’s not Pillowfort, that’s in closed beta. It’s not Ello, that’s mainly for artists. It’s not kinkspace or fetlife, those are too specialist. It’s not jux, that seems to be closed. It’s not Soup, that seems still in development and too small.)
One of the reasons for delaying the announcement for next few days is they don’t want a “land grab” where people take the names of current popular Tumblr users over there (cyber squatting). So they are looking at ways for existing Tumblr users to keep the same names on the new site.
More info over the days to come.
The plan is, broadly:
1. By December 9th, announcement of the new site and how to secure your username there
2. By December 10th, an online tool for bloggers to copy their existing content to the new site automatically, with the same tags and captions.
3. Bloggers will need to copy their content across between December 10th and December 17th if they want to use the automatic tool.
4. My understanding is that after December 17th there will be no public access to any “flagged” posts on Tumblr, but the original poster will still be able to see the flagged post (for a short time at least). Therefore, the original poster may still be able to manually download a post to their own PC or phone, after December 17th, and manually upload it to the other site. But if you have lots of posts that will take a long time, it will be better to use the automatic tool before December 17th.
Please understand that these dates are approximate and may change for technical or other reasons.
There may be a few rough edges or not so perfect looking site design on the transfer tool. Everyone is doing their best. The main goal here is to help as many people as possible preserve access to their content, in the short space of time Tumblr has allowed us, and preserve as much as possible of the Tumblr community spirit somewhere new.
The new site will cater for photo, GIF, text and html posts. It will not offer video and audio posts, due to cost reasons - maybe in future, but for now you will need to preserve video and audio content yourself in some other place.
If your Tumblr blog has a mixture of original content and reblogs, or all reblogs, all of that can be copied over to the new site. Reblogs will become “your” original content if nobody else posted them yet, otherwise they will be shown as reblogs. The devs are looking at ways to preserve attribution of reblogs back to the original Tumblr poster, if that person also moves to the new site.
Important: your Likes cannot be copied from Tumblr to the new site. You will have to go find the same posts again on the new site, and like them afresh.
(Similarly, existing reblog comments, asks, messages and other user interaction on Tumblr cannot be copied to the new site - that’s just too much to do, in the short time available.)
If you want to preserve any of your existing Liked posts on Tumblr, you will need to either: (1) download the post to your own PC, or: (2A) reblog it now to your own Tumblr blog, and then (2B) use the automatic tool, before December 17th, to move your whole Tumblr blog across to the new site.
If you have Liked a lot of posts here on Tumblr, the gridllr.com webapp should be able to help you do steps 1 and 2A quickly, I mean download or reblog.
(Someone complained to me today about the appearance of Gridllr on a phone. It’s best to use Gridllr on a PC, Mac or Tablet with a large screen.)
If you have liked a post here on Tumblr and the original poster decides to delete it, or even to delete their entire blog, some time before December 17th, then that post will be permanently lost. So if you want to be sure to preserve any of your Liked posts, you should best download or reblog as soon as possible. If it’s reblogged to your own blog it is safe from deletion, at least for next few days.
Obviously, you will lose access, after December 17th, to all past posts you have liked, if Tumblr has flagged them as NSFW. Again, the steps (1), or (2A) and (2B) covered above will be the only way to hold on to these posts.
