cross arm poses

ScarletX1969

Are there any cross arm poses in some pose sets?

It's kind of specific, I know, but just asking before I start creating it on my own.  Maybe a good starting point perhaps?

Thanks

As many pose sets I have...and they would be in two poses sets I don't own...lol.  Thank you, Chohole!

It's amazing how many pose sets will have one pose that's actually useful amongst several poses that are so over posed as to have no practical use (particularly when it comes to women).

Cross arm poses are the epitamy of attitude poses.  Yet there are rarely any of these.

Pokethroughs... Cross arm poses need adjustments nearly all the time.

Exactly, they're a real pain to get right. Many clothes will look distorted with cross-arms, all clothes except the geoshell ones will suffer pokethroughs. Minor differences in arm thickness as well as arm length will totally mess up a cross-arm pose. And then there's the problem of skin pressure, which will need some manual tweaking, either with deformers or meshgrabber, or in post work.
Same reason why couples poses often need so many adjustments, and those are generally easier to fix. The bigger the surface areas touching eachother, the more finetuning required.

These are the Genesis 8 sets I am aware of with these poses

There are 2 in the last set. All the other crossed arm poses I have are for older figures

Pose Arhitect kind of contains 2 cross arms poses as well.

If you dial in 

• Arm Over Shoulder (L/R)
• Arm Over Hip (L/R)

The arms will cross in one region or the other.

they will overlap in the middle but that adjustment is not that bad.

And the dials from arhitect will help you in a lot of situations at least to get a good starting point.

Thanks, Havos.  Most of these I have and the poses look pretty good for what I'm  trying to do.  As to adjustments, we have to do that all the time anyway so I'm fine with that.
