I hath returned! I apologize to those of you that read this little blog, but I just couldn’t seem to motivate myself to make posts anymore. It got to the point where it would take me 30-45 minutes to do a single post, so I’m going to do things a little differently this time around. First off, I’m not going to be doing anymore photoshopped images (or at least not regularly). I’m just taking raw snapshots from SL and cropping them. No scenic backgrounds either. I’ll either take them where I’m standing or on a solid color backdrop. Why am I telling you this? I don’t know.
Anyways, my avatar has change a good bit since I last posted. Around the time of my last post, I was searching far and wide for a lighter complexion male skin that wouldn’t make me look like a popped-collar, aviators wearing doucher (*see Club Slut). I found it! Karamia’s male line of skins are fantastic for the style I’m going for; it’s a nice mix of male model and average joe. So I’ve got a lot of posts to catch up on, most of which will have this new skin in it. I get kind of tired of posting the same skin over and over again though, so I’m taking suggestions on other skins to check out, in the same style.
Let’s get to it, eh? I stumbled upon a new designer (at least new to me) a week or so back and I’ve become a big fan of a couple of articles of clothing he has for sale. There was a small seam gap on one of the arms that was keeping me from posting about it, but the designer happily fixed the gap and replaced them. What a guy!
The jacket and tank are from Photos Nikolaidis’ Another Stupid t-shirt Shop (A:S:S). I had a little trouble fitting the collar, but it seems to have worked out in the end. After the issue with the seam gap on the left arm was fixed, I’ve gotta say the jacket is great coming from such a small designer. It looks good, but maintains a hand-drawn look that I’ve come to appreciate.
My other big find, in this post, was this great hair from Uncleweb Studio. Uw.St has been one of my favorite hair designers for a while now, but their main shop has been down for what seems like months. In a desperate search for new men’s hair, I tracked down an Uw.St kiosk/wall in Le Look’s male hair and body section. Until Uw.St’s main shop returns, take this SLURL to get to Le Look http://slurl.com/secondlife/LE%20LOOK/129/53/29
