Back to the fancy stuff

September 01, 2019
So, I have spent most of last month playing around with casual wear for avatars. Which is all very well and good up to a certain point, but after a while boredom does set in. I usually wait to stumble upon something to give me a…

Dress-up Games

August 07, 2019
I have been in SL more of late. Finally managed to make the transition to the mesh body and the mesh head for Alpha. Wasn't easy to do, I still miss the scurrilous little face that the classic avi used to have and that, for …

Kikas and Marmaduke!

June 18, 2019
I am back from my travels. Porto first, then Greece, where I spent a few lovely days down in Kalamata where Katerina and Fotis have a village house up in the mountains above the city. Just gorgeous!

The big alpha.tribe update

April 16, 2019
I did not want to switch over to a mesh avatar for a very long time. I have had the Alpha shape and skin for years and I have really identified with Alpha, in that appearance. She looks like me. Or rather she looked like I looke…

Mesh Dramatics

March 02, 2019
One of my most cherished possessions in Second Life is a huge collection of dramatic poses created by Heidi Dahlseveen , which she very generously gave me many years ago.

Kokopelli

February 26, 2019
I love it when a software gives me ideas. And Sculptris does so. While I am playing around with the clay suddenly it looks like something and...

And very well behaved they are...

February 24, 2019
Yesterday I finally got over all my inhibitions and went into 3D software, after remembering that Cica Ghost had once told me that she was using Sculptris . And after muddling around for quite a while, watching a lot of tutorials…

Curio

December 04, 2018
Curio is playing into my 'minimalist and yet narrative' obsession in a way that the others aren't. Here, the 'tale' is in the steampunk textures with which I clothed the basic prims - mostly cubes actually. A…

Scrounging around for minimalist stuff

November 30, 2018
I am still preoccupied with my building stuff in SL. How to improve on it, how to bring myself up to scratch. The complex mesh stuff is really not for me. So, maybe taking the minimalist route I was talking about before is a goo…

Going back to minimal?

November 28, 2018
While I was putting together images for the  new ShapeShifter 2012 site  I re-rezzed some of the stuff that was on that sim in order to photograph it  (yes, don't ask - I was inexperienced and silly enough not to have made an …

The Miro Sphere

November 11, 2018
I had forgotten about this. It was a self contained environment inside a sphere filled with 3D objects that were inspired by Joan Miro's critters. I made this 4 or 5 years ago and the objects were in fact mesh. Made in photo…

Self Evaluation in SL

November 06, 2018
The new island is more or less done. It looks OK, but it is nothing like what I achieved with Fool's Gold in 2015. The dark sky level is probably the best part visually speaking, and the ground level seems to work, if not en…

Arcadia's avatars...

November 04, 2018
As I wrote before I have used Arcadia Asylum's prims for many builds. Fool's Gold, the best sim I think I ever built was made almost entirely out of them, and this new one has quite a few as well. I am a big believer in …

Midnight Wastes

November 01, 2018
I have gone back up to the towers that I had started to build a few weeks ago. But, like most of what I do, things did not go quite as planned and I ended up adding things that I had not thought of when I was first thinking abou…

The crazy cat lady parlor

October 29, 2018
A while ago Eupalinos Ugajin gave me the sofa as a gift. And I was so delighted that I immediately rushed out to get the matching arm chair and put together a special parlor for cat lovers on the island.

The Hextraordinary Cat

October 28, 2018
Naxos gave me a wonderful gift. Just look at this little guy! And when I walk he walks right along with me. When I stop he immediately plops himself down and sometimes he swishes his tail. Not the upcoming animesh, the creator m…

I have decided to build a playground

October 28, 2018
From the sky tower city, which I am leaving alone for now, I have moved to ground level to put together an amusement park of sorts. Ferris Wheel, carousel, bumper cars, some rides and a shooting gallery. Or rather a grab-a-duck …

First trial - building towers

October 18, 2018
I have started at a sky level. The idea is to build another "city," but one that is quite different from Blueprint City where the whole idea was to use only cubes, rectangles and cylinders that were covered in textures…
