It’s strange what desire makes foolish people do

Hey peeps!

We ROUND 2 is starting soon! Stay tuned for the awesome stuff to be had there. I am in LOVE with one item already:

Innocuous will be presenting this awesome, freaking nice armor at the event. Finally some decent armor for girls that doesn’t look bulky like hell and makes you look like a sad version of Conan. I am in love with it. It comes with shoulders, too, which I will show in a different post. The texture is really nicely done and it is MESH! But only the shoulders come in a rigged and a non-rigged version. The whole armor is modifyable, which is awesome for fitting. Imho, rigged armor always looks a little odd. Why would gauntlets move and bend with your arm? O.o

There will also be a dirty, rugged version of this armor available as well as a dark red and a black texture. I very much like this and will kiss Circuitous’ feet for a while now I think. Honestly I even believe it fits a guy as well, since among our penis-type people there are a few rogue-ish, leather-wearing characters as well. And..it’ll come in a separate version for the guys!

Here my current outfit:

An open mind for a different view

Heya peeps,

the following Outfit will be a little on the posh side of things, yet all materials are valid for any kind of medieval role-play. I was kinda inspired by…guess who? The red priestess Melisandre. Love, love, love her. She’s, besides Margaery, Olenna and Arya my favourite female character. Which is yours?

I really would love the outfit offered by Coco Designs even more if it came in separate pieces. I don’t know why awesome mesh creators are not realizing how much more versatile their creations were if they allowed them to be mixed and meshed some more. :/

Magika has released some new hair which is a very simple and sleek look, which matches Melisandre’s style just perfectly. I am generally a HUGE fan of Magika’s hair, it always seems to fit my head just perfectly, unlike some other hair creator’s hairs.

The skirt by Milk Motion seems to be new as well, and damn, it comes in so many colours perfect for gorean caste role-play (wear an undershirt!) or rp in general.

I just want to share your light

Hey there,

I haven’t been posting in some time. Two reasons: I got a whole LOT of work to do in reallife and well…World Of Warcraft’s new expansion is out, which means I spent a good portion of my free time leveling my hunter. But here is the outfit I currently love most. It doesn’t involve new releases, it’s not super meshy, but it is an outfit I personally really do like. Hope you like it as well! The picture was taken at Port Kar. Please note that I got a special permission to show up there like this. It is a gorean sim and as well all know, women in Gor don’t carry weapons and certainly have no elven ears.

I am losing my favourite game

Hey folks!

I know I have been slow lately, but I am currently facing some difficulties getting a feeling for SL again, especially because my real life is exceedingly busy and I feel like I barely have time to keep up. And then…

…I got really annoyed. Inspired by THIS picture by Constance Daehlie, I went to The Body Co to test their make ups and try out the Lavender skin. Unfortunately, while it looks GREAT on Constance, Arica looks just strange with it. Grumble!!! And then this: 1. They cost 500 Lindens. That is a LOT for four layers (lips, eyes, blush, whole makeover). 2. There are NO demos. Why on earth would you provide no demos?

But, being the shopping-idiot that I am, after ~ 20 minutes of pondering and hesitation I bought it for my League Skin. I tried it with a demo for their skin which I am considering to buy and …YAY!!!…I liked it. So today, I put on the make up, switched to my current skin from League..and BAM: There it was. A big fat LAVENDER Logo on my cheek. So, I just paid the super high price of 500 Lindens for this make up…and cannot wear it with any other skin than that one specific skin. Are you kidding me??? Grrrr!! I am angry and annoyed. Not even on my Orchid skin from teh same creator it fits.

Here is a hint: If you sell make up, especially in case you sell expensive make up, provide demos. And if you want to add to versatility and attract more buyers, do not write a hugeass Logo all over it that prevents people it from using it with skins other than your specific, single skin.

It’s what I’d call a good attitude towards customers.

Now to the positive things – LAQROKI:

LAQROKI is releasing a new skinline soonish. They have almost always been providing top notch skins, though in my humble opinion during the past years they didn’t quite keep up anymore with the quality other designers provided. Their body needed an update badly and the darker skintones were terribly yellowish. I have been seeing a sneakpeak at the new body and it has been mentioned the skintones will be updated as well.

I am pleased with what I see and totally looking forward to try out these skins! I hope they will not only release new ones but possibly update some of the most popular, older skins as well. To me, this body looks a whole lot more realistic and detailed than the old one. The strange yellow tendency seems to be erased as well.

PINK FUEL
Mochi Milena of Pink Fuel is about to release her newest skin, Kumi, as well. You can see a nice preview of that skin here. She has reworked her tones and I personally think the face is really, really nice. Stay tuned. I am so damned excited about this skin.

And here is my outfit of the day. As you can see, I went back to my ‘old’ skin, Orchid by The Body Co. Despite their stupid make ups!!!
