I needed a 'Fembot' from the 'Wrong Side of Uncanny Valley' to counterpoint sweet Posette.

Some hunting around led me to Anime-ish Aiko3, now free, with a free morph to a neat android.

{ "You want to dress up your androids and fembots ? Really ??" :lmao: }

Collecting a wardrobe of basics for them brought me to 'Ariel for Aiko3' among the ShareCG freebies. Now, I don't have much time for Disney's take on the tale, but an aquatic android could do beach-patrol without scaring the kiddies...

However, the 'build' needed a leotard by a Japanese artist plus a mertail from 3dzone. Though the 'wayback machine' retrieved the leotard, the mertail was unavailable, thought lost at sea...

Serendipitously, I'd a copy of the mertail zip, downloaded Dec2004 and later rescued from my dying CAD Tower.

Legalities, legalities-- No-one seems to know if 3dzone 'pulled' the file, or simply lost it when they closed.

There's no 'ReadMe' file with attribution or re-distribution info, so I've contacted 'AforA3's author for help.
