Carry-On Craft

Are you a bird? No, you're a plane!

:) Hey everyone. It's time for another Project Themeory release. This week's theme was The Masquerade. As I don't really make clothes, I broadened this subject to carnivals, Halloween and dressing up in general. This in turn inspired me to create a wearable airplane costume that will add a splash of cute to all your travels. Driving is surely a thing of the past. You have now become your own form of transportation!

Sales poster :D


The back of the aircraft, with a better view of the wings and fuselage. Making the plane fit nicely around the avatar was quite challenging. I spent hours tweaking the rim, but the extra effort was well worth it in the end. I'm really happy with how the craft fits around the body. The wings got some special attention as well, with flaps added for more detail.


Top view of the front of the aircraft. I included a holding pose in the plane to prevent one's arms from sinking into the wings. It also adds some more cute to the product I think. Your elbows now rest snugly on top of the wings :)


That is all =^.^=

I am happy to report that I have moved my mainstore to the brand new LISP sim, owned by my good friend Pandora Popstar (aka Lainy Voom). Please update your landmarks if you haven't done so already, as this will be my primary location from now on.

You can pick up my Carry-On Craft at LISP for only L$75. After this weekend it will go back into inventory, to be reworked for a re-release at full price.


P.S.: If you take pics wearing this product, please post them to the store Flickr pool. I would love to see!

Home Sweet Home, and a Contest

Woot! After long hours of endless tweaking, I'm happy to report my new mainstore, in the Osaka sim, is finally up. It's actually been up for a while already, but I wanted it to be perfect for when I posted the announcement. This is the first building I've made and it was challenging in a number of ways. However, I do hope it turned out nice ... and cute of course. My Linji location is still up and I will keep it as long as possible. It just won't be my main any longer, so please update your landmarks.

Wide view of the new store. The crystals and flowers in the garden are by the very talented Summer Seale :)


I decided to keep my old logo. It's definitely not one of the better sculpts I've done, but I'm so attached to it now. And it's simple and fun, so for now it stays.


Store sign. I really did my best with shadowing on this build. It's trial and error for me, I learn something new with each project. I'm truly grateful for all the skills I've been taught through SL.


Some interior shots. I thought the branch breaking through the building was a nice touch. I further updated all my vendors and rearranged them a bit.


In honor of this new mainstore opening, I'm having a contest. Entering is quick and easy. Simple join my update group (sign inside the store) and also click the pink logo on top of the building, which will enter you in the contest itself. Only after completing both steps will you have a chance to win. There will be three winners. Two will get a beautiful new backpack I'm close to finishing, a third will get this backpack and L$500 as well. Winners will be announced april 19th, both here and through my update group.


That's all for now. Please come have a look at the store. I put a lot of heart and soul into it :)

Summer and Halloween

If you love particles, you should know Summer Seale. I'm not talking about obnoxious bling you see at clubs, but beautiful and intricate particles. Summer really is the particle queen and she recently opened her own sim which is just downright gorgeous. I'm honored she offered me a spot there.

The sim is a haven for fairies: magical, cute and filled to the brim with awesome sculpts, most of which Summer herself created.


Sim landing point. Just to give an idea of the goodies. You have to see this place for yourself. Pics can't do it justice.


My mushroom. I got to pick a color, so I went with the purple cap of course. Cutesy colors yay! I so love this little store. It's adorable, I love spending time here.


I'm sure it's not just me, but I get fired up over stuff like this. With this new store in mind, I felt inspired to finally do something for Halloween and perhaps, maybe, yes ... make it free. I've been totally lazy on the freebie front, about time that changed. I'm very grateful to everyone who has bought from me or stopped by my store.

The idea I went with isn't that original of course, as a Halloween freebie, but it all comes down to execution I thought. Wicked Witch Wendy (I hope) turned out sweet and fun. She blinks and her broom leaves a trail of particles (thanks to Summer!). She can be worn on your shoulder, attached to a scarf or as a spinning pet. I made two color options as well: a more classic Halloween look and a colorful pink and purple look. The first can be found at my main store in Linji, the second at my new mushroom store. Both of them will be available until November 1st, after which I'll take them back into my invent, for a year probably.


I hope this will introduce more people to Summer's sim. It deserves all the visitors it can get. Plus, making this was really fun. I think I'll do something for Christmas too, but maybe by then more specifically for customers or store subscribers. Just gotta poke a certain someone to put an update system in place :P

Anyways, happy Halloween everyone!
Grab these little witches before they disappear =^.^=
