"Aphrodite," I pleaded to the moon drenched sky. "Tell me, if love is meant to heal, why does it destroy those who choose it?" From somewhere beyond the clouds, I heard the Goddess laugh. And I knew. N. Gill.

 So, being away officially from SL has not kept me from at least doing one of the things I've always enjoyed, and that is making shapes :) I've made a few and had time to actually update my MP store. Here is the latest, and this time I also made a pose to go with it (see images below) . The pose is free if you get the shape (it is included). This shape is on promo pricing on MP, and its a STEAL! I make very good shapes with attention to detail for the faces. It is something I am very good at, and I do not apologize for not being humble about it. (And when I mean good, I mean I make realistically proportional bodies with lovely faces and profiles)  However, I do not believe that pricing these at high prices is necessary. The price, in this case, does not indicate the quality.  Please do not be fooled by higher prices on shapes. They are extremely easy to create (I know, I've made at least 1000, no exaggeration, over the past 11 years in SL) and have almost no other c...

So, when I received my Tonic body update with Bento hands and the ability to switch between foot height on the HUD, I was super stoked. And, now, with the update to the body that includes aureola/nipple appliers, I was over the moon! I had to log in from my SL leave to do a post on this..how could I not?  Like, seriuosly, how cool are these babies?? Note: The image above was NOT photoshopped. This was taken with Firestorm viewer using Strawberry Singh's portrait windlight on Ultra setting, and cropped for the purposes of my blog.  The image below was post-processed.. enjoy xo I know its different for people but I really think these are lovely and so natural looking, and they work with ANY skin you use, not just the pretty Lumae ones that the body comes pre-loaded with (which have also been updated by the way! Please do go check them out.) I am using a skin from PUMEC (which includes Omega body appliers in all their gacha skins, yes!) with my Catwa Alice non-Bento he...

Well, it has been a bit since I officially "left" SL. In essence I did, and even though it was a hard choice to make I felt then and still do that it was the best choice for me and my family. I do love doing photos and actually do enjoy blogging, but the pace I was keeping was hard to maintain. I have been battling with Lupus for a few years, and recently had a very bad flare -up. Needless to say, not only was this painful, but also scary, and made me realize that my life needs to be more balanced. That being said, I do like making shapes and other aspects of SL, and I dont' want to completely leave forever. So, I still pop in every so often to make a shape and put it up on MP.  I am able to take the photos and post it up now that I have time too! This shape is made using the updated Belleza Freya body with bento hands, and the Lelutka Chloe Bento mesh head. I love the Lelutka heads, and their HUDs are so elegant and easy to use. I really love customizing my avi,...

 Do you own the Utilizator Normie head and need a cute new shape for it? Try Mia! I know that so many of us in SL use the more well known brands for our mesh heads, but I just want to sing the praises for Utilizator who made this super cute, easy to use, and Omega ready Bento head at an unbeatable price! You can use any Omega skin with the head out of the box.. no need to get a translator HUD like some other heads. For 500L, this head is a super awesome alternative to the mainstream mesh heads out there, that won't break your bank.  I wanted to take advantage of the youthful look of the head, so I made this full and curvy shape that honestly I can't take off. I am using a 7 Deadly s{k}ins applier here, which is Omega. I've also tested it on Stixx skins, which are totally kawaii! And, if you are a fan of Wow skins, any of her Omega skin appliers will work on this head, and I tried a few and they were all so pretty!  You can find this shape on my MP store.....

The weapon was heavy, well weighted, and old but in impecable condition. Tess glanced at her old friend and grinned mirthlessly. "You have always known what I like". He raised an eyebrow, then frowned at her. "You know I completely disapprove of what you are about to do" he said, a somber tone to his accented voice. "I know, Professor." Tess looked away at the Bloodmoon rising in the sky. She knew what she was about to do. Kill the bastard that has killed her Vincent. No, not just kill him, anihilate him and his entire Coven. She had already hunted down all of the renegade vampires that had been involved the night of the raid in which Vincent had died protecting her and the others. She made sure they suffered. She relished every  moment of the hunt and the kill. "Revenge is never good" said the professor again, his voice heavy. He sighed. Tess turned and looked at his face, old and lined with heavy laugh lines. The old man stood ta...
