I have spent four hours today and untallied hours yesterday working on a series of really complicated methods for keeping Hattie’s dress from intersecting her belly, none of which worked. And now I realize in a crystal-clear moment of divine clarity, that I am AN UTTER MORON. We only see her legs for one brief shot, and for that I can easily use a different model. Someone PLEASE thwap me upside the head with something heavy and blunt. *deletes blend shape cheats, influence objects, and the painstakingly painted skin weights, and restructures the model so there’s nothing underneath her dress, and her legs start at the knees*

Oh, Pizza Rustica, why don’t you deliver?
