In time for Valentine's Day!! Whew!


Another project that seemed to never end. I tried several things and ended up with four options as shown in the poster.
The transparent babydoll as shown, has hearts that are scattered throughout the skirt and top. These hearts really pop out and aren't transparent themselves.
The marabou works well as there move along with the skirt once again. Not always perfect in high-lag environments. I think the skirts with the marabout run around 90 plus prims. If thats the case, the non-marabou skirts will work just as well.
Well I'm tired. This will be the last of the clothing I make for the next two months. Hair fair is a couple of months away, but I really want to be prepared for it and start making some great hair. Enjoy the new clothing from the past couple of months. It's not much, I'm just so picky.

New detailed sweaters, lots of them




Now I spent much time on these testing out baking and texturing. Finally after a week or so spending a couple of hours here and there on this project, I got it. The seams match from the top to the bottom perfecting and the texture is really nice looking and pops out really well. It just looks snug!
15 colors are available and also a demo just to look at to see how good they might look.
To see if anyone reads these posts, I will offer one of these free color of your choice if you IM me in world that you've read this post within the past week. No longer otherwise I'm sure I'll get to many requests.
Onto the next post, gotta catch up.

Finally done New Dress




This took a while as I tried a number of things to create my best dress to date.
This dress comes in 8 colors and are priced at 300L each. The mega pack is 1000L for all 8 which isn't too bad.
The bodice is highly detailed with some star shapes and flower shapes. The prim dress has some more flower and leaf like shapes on it also.
The prim dresses are available in two different options. The one I wanted to be used has more prims on it. I used the regular set of prims and then added another two sets to create the pattern in more 3d-like way. In other words the pattern sticks out some instead of just a flat texture. The other dress is the traditional texture on prim.
Issues with the first prim dress is lag and sometimes I would like to call it bad rezzing of the flex paths. The flex paths should usually be the same but sometimes they seem to not rez correctly and the pattern will be off from where it should be on the dress. Lag usually pulls this dress apart from the pattern a lot more than a low lag area. So that is why I included the traditional dress.
I made 8 colors but I could make more. I will start on my next project for now. I really feel the need to make some casual clothing now.

Thanks for looking.

It's Winter I don't care I want Summer!!!!!







I spent a lot of time on these. First off, each skin is priced at 125L and the big pack of 19 is priced at 500L. The demo is free and each suit comes in different layers for flexibility if needed.
I spent a lot of time on these. I needed to learn how to bake better in Maya. Now they look good for that. I added some shading underneath the suit so it stands out a bit more on the top of the skin and the wrinkles are just right.
Overall I'm happy with those and I think that is why I made 19 suits. I could make more but I think enough is enough. I'm tired! Maybe I'll make a different type of suit/bikini next with the same patterns. Those wouldn't take as long then. Enjoy!!!!

Ok, this is really neat!!!!!!



After a couple of experiments it is finally done and I'm very happy with this outfit. To make this skirt work took a lot of testing out to make sure that all parts of the skirt moved in synch.

This outfit comes in 13 color choices and a bundled pack. Each color is 300L and comes with two different sizes, small and large. The bundled (mega pack) can be bought for 1000L and includes all 13 color choices. All clothing in the photo is included in the outfit.

Also available is a 2 for 1 Christmas special, see photo

A demo is also available to try out.

Maintenance, argh!


So there's SL downtime today. I was starting to get really excited about this outfit until they shut SL down. This color set is complete, but I plan on making more. The red and white is for Christmas and the other colors I'll be making will be for all year.
This skirt is something really neat. I didn't think this was possible ever. I made it so the marabou trim moves with the skirt. I also cut down on the prims. My first try for the skirt ended up being somewhere around 180 or 190 prims. Now the skirt is down to 121. Which is much better. So hopefully by tomorrow morning SL time, I can get some of these up. For now, SL downtime and rest for me.

Belle Sleeved Santa Set


For the Holidays. This set includes the Hat, all 42 colors of Shelly 2 hair, and the shirt, shorts, and skirts. There are two skirts in this pack. One is made of prims and the other of the SL mesh for higher lag areas. Both skirts come with the trim and without. The belle sleeves are sculpted along with the hat. I put a lot of work into it and there are plenty of options for the skirts.
I tried something new with the prim skirt when adding the trim to it. They move along with the skirt except its not quite to perfection. Not sure if its entirely 100 percent possible but it was pretty close except during faster movement. Either way, for 500L it is worth it. The mega pack of Shelly 2 all 42 colors alone is 700L. So the outfit is free or vise versa. Enjoy.
