Rachelle is Rochelle

I can't spell. Now I need to rename all of those 42 hairstyles, ugh! When simple little letter. Someone also said I should fix some of the stretching on the Paris hairstyle. It's not bad at all, but I will see if I can even do that. I don't know. I thought it looked like a good style. Though I'm only a content creator and I don't do days of testing like some of the shoppers do. Customers are always right.
I'm also short on space at the store. I may be doing some reorganization before any new hairstyles but what am I doing to do?

Rachelle

This hair has special meaning to me and many other people. I won't go into details but I put in a little extra effort into this.
The hair is very fine and needed a few extra prims. It runs at about 117 prims. It's about waste length, so it is quite long.
As always try out the demos. Hair like this moves really nicely but you can't see it in the photo.
Anyways thanks for looking. It's been a tough week here. Rachelle is no longer with us and it wasn't a natural death. She was taken away by someone or some people that are very evil. She was only 26 and was a single mother and now that baby has no mother. So I am sad at this. But we all remain strong.

Luxurious

How long does it take to make hair like this? Well I timed it out and it took 8 hours for this one. I made new hair textures, like I've done for most of the latest hair. That part takes so long! Ok so I thought I was done in 8 hours. Then I looked at it again, the new hair textures were a bit clumpy looking. I don't know how else to describe it.
So I spent another 3 hours making new textures. Then I goofed up the scripts doubling them up on some prims so the hair wouldn't size right. Ugh!
It's done now and it moves really nice. I still find that April is my favorite for now.

Paris.....not Hilton either


OK, I made this last weekend but it looked like crap. So I fixed it up a bit and made new textures. I am much more happy with this style now. I even ended up using fewer prims. 100% sculpts except for the flex.
I don't like short styles. I just can't do them well. This does work for me though.
This doesn't even look like what I was trying to do. My styles always end up somewhere different than I intend. Maybe that's a good thing. Maybe it forces me to let the hair do its own thing instead of trying to make it do something it can't.
OK, I'm going to put this up later. I'm tired but it will be put up eventually. It's just I'm out of room in the store and I don't know what to do. I would like to keep making hair instead of organizing the store which is tedious and boring.

What next?

Should I update the Sophie skin or make more hair?

I kind of made some tweaks to the Sophie skin, improved the makeup and made the cleavage more defined. It looks great.

I don't know. I've been on a roll with hair and updating all of the skins would take several weeks for me now I think.

Maybe I'll just do both.

Celebrity!!!


Ok, I've been working on the PC 8 hours straight and I'm tired so here goes.
One style for this weekend. This style is called Celebrity. This style turned out really well. I tried to get the hair to look more random. It's similar to April but more wavy and curly.
Of course its scripted for Touch-To-Size. It sure makes sizing hair a lot easier. It makes things easier for me because I no longer need to make 3 sizes of hair each time I make a hair style. I hope its working out well for everyone else.

Thanks for looking. Oh and the 5 styles below have been released and are up at the store. They are all opposite of the main wall of hair.

I'm thinking it is soon time to reorganize the hair. Right now there is no real order to the mess except maybe the further right you go the older the styles are. I'm just not good at making things nice looking but I'll try.

Trouble - Did I ever


I really had trouble making this one. I was going to name this "Trouble" anyways, but I really did have issues making this. Making the sculpty parts was a pain in the but. The bangs alone took a few hours to make. Then the flexy texture I was going to use didn't look right so I needed to make on a different size and shape to fit this style.
I'm just not good a short hair. This is by far my best short hair style so far though. It still has plenty of flexy but short stuff. It sort of bounces a bit when walking or moving rather then flowing like a long style would do.
Hair Fair 2008? I don't see anything happening. I think I'm going to release these five styles as soon as I can. I need to make demos, and that sort of thing. Might take a few days to get them all sorted out. I'm tired.
