Suggestions for the Casual Pack
Here, we're looking mostly for down-time in the avenger or after-combat situations. Our squad is relaxed, casual and/or a bit silly, but not too much. Mainly we want UNARMED poses here, so suggest away!!

Note: I'm personally not a fan of memes or anime, so suggestions for either will be ignored.

First time suggesting ever for a mod and I'm a bit afraid of doing so (I might veer off), but here's my suggestions:

- Object-less versions of existing poses (no chairs, no window frames etc.): will allow more precision in creating posters if using Photoshop or something like that
- Casual greeting pose ("Meeting an Ally"): the most similar one to my suggestion ("Duo" Bond Left/Right) is over the top
- Casual thumbs up/down ("Appreciation/Disappointment"): existing XCOM version looks like the trooper's stomach is hurting; the face expression is basically "respectful criticism" (slightly happy/slightly sad)
- Laying on the ground pose ("Hope of the New World"): the trooper lays on the ground and looks up with a little smile - good for night posters; another variant - the trooper lays against the rock/box, the rest is same
- Relief pose ("Breath of Relief"): "it felt good to survive that operation"; the trooper is casually relieved, while taking the sweat from the forehead with wrist
- Poses for sitting on benches, walls or rooftop ends

If I'll have another set of suggestions and if these ones aren't against the spirit of the mod, I'll post them later

Good suggestions. If you have any more, feel free to post them. Just keep in mind, sometimes it's a bit hard to really describe what a pose looks like with words, where a reference picture might work perfectly. But feel free to suggest either way!
Now that I have had time to toy with the photobooth I have a few ideas to propose:

- Poses with canteens or bottles (beer, sodas, liquor, plastic water bottles, etc.) to depict soldiers taking the edge off after a job well done.

- A pose with a soldier handling a medkit, ideally for the specialists.

- Squatting poses (i.e. Slav squat, Asian squat)

- Soldiers expressing embarrassment, frustration, or amusement. Moods to reflect how the mission went is what I have in mind.

- I don't know if you'd count it as anime or not, but King of Fighters has very expressive poses for their win poses, victory screens, taunts, Time Over, etc. that would convey a lot of personality and I'd love to see a couple of poses inspired by those.

Keep it coming, these are fun and flesh in who our soldiers are.

Heyo, firstly, big thanks for your mods, photobooth is very funny place also thanks to you. if you still accept suggestions, there is something from me: recently, my soldier got captured for a first time... well, for second technically speaking, but the first one was scripted. SO:

- some "captured soldier" poses? Including the pose for Mox and something similar: bound soldiers alone, with their captors etc.
- more happy or laughing poses
- more happy dual poses, that look like two people are having a photo together (facing the same way). By this I mean dual poses for friends, like arms around shoulders of one another (reference: https://rb.gy/48xxa) but maybe also for married duo? (I found a mod, that adds "wedding rings" to customisation, so I am about to wed some of my soldiers :D )

thanks in advance
