SLink Physique Male Mesh Body

All images in this post are raw shots, so they have not been enhanced in Photoshop, only cropped and resized.

The SLink Physique male mesh body was released today and here is some important information about it:

• The price is L$1250 – doesn’t include mesh hands or feet.
• This body comes with a penis that can be enabled using the Alpha HUD. You can toggle the foreskin button on the HUD if you want it uncircumcised and you can also increase your hip length to make it bigger. (NSFW penis pictures below)
• This body has Omega support and the female physique body will also be updated shortly to be Omega compatible, so make sure to check the redelivery at the SLink mainstore in a few days if you have the female body.
• Previous Physique layers also work on this body. The tattoo I am wearing in the first image is an older Letis Tattoo that had SLink Physique appliers from before. As you can see, it worked perfectly.
• The male mesh hands and feet have been updated so they also support omega appliers. In order to get the update, hit the redelivery terminal at the SLink mainstore.
• This body includes a tinting HUD so you can match your favorite skins if they don’t have appliers yet. The skin I’m wearing is an older one from FRUK and it has no appliers. I used the tinting HUD to match the body, hands, feet and penis to my skin. I then used the blender tattoo that comes with the body and tinted that as well to make the neck seamless.
• This body comes with a default SLink shape, 6 SLink base skins, 6 blender tattoos to match, 3 applier underwear and SLink basic fitmesh tank and jeans. There has also been a full release of the tank and jeans in more colors.
• Appliers and Clothing for this body can be found in the following two flickr groups if you are looking to purchase some:  Slink Avatar Enhancement Creations and Omega Gents
• You can pick up the SLink Avatar Enhancement Personal HUD for free if you want to make your own personal textures for the body.
• If you want to create mesh clothing for this body, in Siddean’s plurk she says there are no special applications for this, the mesh kit will be updated and sent out soon.

My opinion of the body is that it’s excellent quality, easy to use and will hopefully have a lot of custom items made for it soon since Siddean always makes it so accessible.

Where the look of the body is concerned, I had to majorly adjust my shape to make it look like the size of my default shape. I think this body is kind of like a “slim fit” (for lack of a better word). For it to work well with the default SL head, you need to keep the body fat between 0 to 5. Therefore, you must use thickness and muscle sliders to look appropriately bulkier. Before I bulked myself up, the body looked very slim in my original shape. So if you’re used to having a bigger shape, definitely play with the thickness and muscle sliders. Click here for a closeup of body hair and penis options.
