BTW, this is not my character, its fanart. I want to put the sifz file here, for educational purposes, because it uses another clipping method that is not typical.
I was used to the “Onto” blending property, to make dresses, but in this case, it wasn’t working. The torso and thighs sides would not have their “side outlines” visible.
Then I tried the “Multiply” blending (darken also works). It shows the skin outline because it’s black, and the remains red because the skin color is very light. I think that with dark and mid-valued skins, you can try Add or Divide and choose an appropriate color.
This is how it looked with the typical “Onto” blending. Again, “Onto” is great for regions whose Outlines you can bring up to the front of the dress layer.
