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! 😀

You are not as brave as you were at the start

Heya peeps!

So, today a guy’s post. May I introduce Vanquish to you? He’s a friend of mine (this is one of his 1 Million of alts) and has the ability to create really cool avatars. Imho, he is the living proof that there is in fact enough cool stuff out there for guys to come up with awesome outfits pretty regularly. He’s damned good at mixing and matching and has a great eye for details. However, he sucks at finding poses, vain man that he is it took him ages! 😀

Run girl run! This world is not made for you!

Heya!

Time for more elfy stuff, wearable by humans and other kinds, too! Soedara released an awesome meshoutfit called Clan Maiden. It comes in a bunch of colours and you can wear it in many, many variations, so it is pretty damned perfect for mixing and matching. In my outfit, I feature the mainpart, which basically works like a small leatherdress of sorts.

LeLutka released new hair, a cute bob-style among them, but the other two did disappoint me a little. Imho they cannot keep up with the usually impeccable creativity Thora offers us: The updo has two strands hanging on the side of the face which looks good from the front, but looks utterly disconnected from the rest of the hair from the side. I am not sure why she did not add a couple of more strands there to cover up that odd gap, but oh well, maybe just not my taste.  The other hair is kinda okay, I got it even, until I figured it looks rather bland to be very honest.

However, complaining about LeLutka is complaining on a  VERY high level, so I am relatively sure not everybody will agree and the majority will storm there and buy everything anyways. I mean, I have pretty much her store in my inventory by now. ;D

In unknown lands the elf met a stranger…

Heya peeps,

so, after a bit of a blow up because a friend of mine didn’t want to tell some random impolite chick what her skin was, I will state this:

NO, it is NOT mean, bitchy, princessy and arrogant not to state where your skin and layers are from. Secondlife only offers a few things to truly customize your avatar. Creating a UNIQUE looking character for role-play that doesn’t run around with your generic XY skin requires quite a bit of Lindens and time and matching ‘skills’. So, if someone doesn’t want to tell every layer, how about you just accept it and move on to start to create your own ideas?

It has NOTHING to do with being a princess or wanting to be special, but it has everything to do with wanting to maintain unique features that fit the character you picture in your mind. It is another reason why most people who value a bit of a unique look do not go for mesh-heads…an army of clones really is a bit boring.

Going so far to spend your online time on finding out what skin person XY is wearing and how she combines her layers, to then spill it to the public in your profile, alongside with some incredibly idiotic rant only paints you as an uncreative mean chick who cannot for the sake of her own reputation accept a ‘no’ and create an avi herself. 😀

/rant off. It’s so fun to rant at times. 😛

Oh and by the way…mysterious woman, you got it wrong. It isn’t Pussy by The Bodyshop, as you have certainly realized by now. Since you apparently told her you are a blogger, from what I have been told, shouldn’t you have recognized it? ;D

Queen of the High Forest

Hellos!

So, I have been repeatedly asked why I do not dish out a post every day currently. Two reasons:

1. I passed my final, final, final exam on monday. 11 hours of exams, essays, showlessons and oral exams after 1,5 years of traineeship. I was really damned busy.

2. I do not post every random stuff some store happens to release, especially not if it is the usual template stuff. I do use template stuff at times, but only if it is really well done. I rather go for quality than quantity. I wait until I really love an outfit and then blog it.

I got a few outfits up my sleeve, so whenever I find the time the next days, I’ll blog.  Oh and if you want to listen to true greatness, listen to this:

Woodkid – I love you

Ecstasy of Gold

Hey peeps,

I know, I know. I have been slow lately. Several reasons there, and those aren’t excuses: I haven’t felt terribly inspired lately, since a few of my favourite designers have been very inactive the past month. Also, I am currently studying a lot since on march 4th I’ll have the second part of my master’s degree and hopefully become a full teacher finally, after 1,5 years of an extremely stressfull internship. So bear with me please, I really do feel stupid that I feel so lazy lately.

SO, I am glad Curio is finally back, even if I daresay that the compromise they amde stinks. Pity, but at least they are back. So right now I am waiting for new skins from Curio and The Body Co.

Talk about the Body Co: I abandoned my Orchid skin. Why? For several reasons:

1. For once, Body Co stated they will not create Tango appliers for their skins. Their decision, but a big let down for me.
2. I got tired of their prices. I am sorry, but 500 Lindens for a watermarked (!) Make UP, that you can only use with that ONE specific skin and not even any of their other skins, is just ridiculous. Doesn’t matter how many layers it comes with, since I don’t want a make up in a billion of skintones but rather one I can use for mixing and matching.
3. During their Sale, the Orchid skin was 750L while all others were 500L, due to the package being slightly different (three types of brows). The other skins come with one type of brow, which imho, isn’t exactly a nice deal for a single skin. Time moves on, skins nowadays come with several brow layers, hairbaes, freckles, sometimes different make up layers or even nose-addons and so many other things. I think they do not offer a whole lot for the money you pay, at least not outside of the Sale.

I still love their skins, but that still put me off.

So now, I wear a new combination of skin + skinlayers. I really do like it a lot. 🙂 Thoughts on it? And…there are even Tango-appliers for this one. 😀

As for the new outfit: I tried to put together a layered outfit with pretty much mesh-only items. 🙂
