Fender Fangs: Diesel and Silk

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: Lazy smoke trails lingered in the air as if unable to decide which way to turn. The mechanic of the Nightrix gang sighed, and considered the fate of his rival. It's true, he did hate Darren Darkfire, the young upstart from the Fender Fangs who just made lifetime of his work obsolete but at the same time there was a tightly coiled thrill deep inside him. Who else but another mechanic guru could share the same kind of passion he did for tinkering with things that go Vroom. Would the pipsqueak reveal his secrets if showered with praise, or would things get much more, ...interesting?

Here's some great goodies for the guys from the August ROMP. The idea for this series was inspired by the House of Ruby clothing applier, Mechanic. It comes with options for reveal and works on Slink and Omega. The punk necklace by Gabriel comes in black and silver, for guys or girls. The pants by Mirage come with a hud for closed or open zipper. And the beautiful silky robe and pose by Hilu, lay 1 version, is mod so you can stretch it for the best fit, and I added a purple tint to it too. The robes come with a x,y,z resizer hud.

Creators Collection Box, 1

(click to enlarge)

Introducing an awesome new event, The Creators Collection Box! It has great deals from many talented designers from Japan. Do not miss it! It runs until February 14th. For more information and shopping catalog, go to the CCB website here: http://www.sl-ccb.com

Let me tell you a little more about items featured in the image above. First, I am wearing an interesting creation from Gabriel. It's a halfway on jacket. One arm is tucked inside the coat pocket, the other is free to move around. You can wear the light or dark undershirt. The outfit also includes a glove with metal studs for the free hand. There are 3 styles to choose from, green, brown, or blue. The jeans are also a clever creation. It comes in 2 parts. The main part of the jeans is a double waist (that means the hip-hop style of boxers showing and belted jeans lower on the hip). Second part is the lower leg, it's actually a second rigged mesh you attach. Why? Because you can choose what leg you want to fit your shoes. OMG I love this! I choose boot C because I wear boots a lot. But you can choose a normal bottom B, or a flared bottom A. There are 3 jean colors to choose from. The hair is by Salon de GLOW and on sale on for only 60L. There are two hair styles you can pick from at this great price. The boots are by Deco, and once more I wearing the The Mesh Project head, body, and Tableau Vivant tone one Felix appliers. In the background all decor items come from the No Concept gacha. It's on sale at only 40L a pull. These items are all nicely made. The clock keeps real time and you can adjust the time zone too. It comes in either white or black. The door with lamp is the rare. I love the little detail of the plug and electrical socket too. Next is the Ladder, and two stools with many good poses for girls and guys. (You can see two of the poses on the stools on my Big Ben Bats post.) Last is the Dice lamp. I scaled it smaller for table top size. The gacha is on sale and prices will go back up once the event ends. Run go get the deals, gang!

RMK Halloween: The Magical Academy 1

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: While the young students of the Ghost Academy struggled to control their brooms and fly through each gate on the course, their older classmates would preform trick stunts and often sent the rookies flying into thickets of thorns.

The idea for this outfit was one to match with the Magical Academy's schoolgirl's uniform (see image below). I used the new Preppy sweater and pants by Monso.   For the witch elements, I used my Rare Will o' Wisp win from Remarkable Oblivion' Witch Hats gacha last year. I have good news too, Remarkable Oblivion has a new series of witch hats coming out for this year at the Tag Gacha. It opens Oct 17th.  Working perfectly under the witch and with the cape, is the new group gift Huds Test Hair by Tableau Vivant. Tableau Vivant has just reopened it hair store with a brand new look, and completely new hair color huds!  Run go get the gift and play with all the many new cool colors! I picked this lovely strawberry blonde, it's my second favorite hair color after white. I'm so happy to finally have a nice strawberry color in SL!   The wand is part of the FATEplay's Henry outfit for the guys. The wand comes with a hud to trigger a spell cast animation. Working great with the pants, are the Deco wingtip shoes with socks. The cape is by Pucca Firecaster. It comes with an attachment to add a logo to the shoulders. In fact, monso tie has an add-on for logo also, I dropped on both Magical Academy logo. Fun! .... But I know what you guys really want to know, WHERE IS THAT BADASS BROOM?!! lol It's the prize by NeverWish at the RMK Halloween's Dream Gacha! It's unscripted and you can mod it. So you can tint it, resize it, or drop a script in it to make it fly. Just play the games at RMK and you can win it or make trades for it.  How do you play? In a nutshell: Play games and earn coins for the Dream Gacha. You have until October 31st to complete the challenges and get the prizes. For more information, and pictures of the prizes go to: http://rmkghost.blogspot.jp  Tutorial in English Here.

STORYLINE: Reiki was a freshman on her first ride on the broom. Instead of flying up, she went down right through the roof of the old theater!

Kemono and the M3 head by Utilizator are so cute, and work perfectly with the free school uniform, reminiscent of Kiki's Delivery Service. You don't need to play the games to get it, just go to the landing and touch Charolette's Raven to get it. The broom and poses are by Uncertain Smile, and you can win them at the Dream Gacha. The mod and skin are created by Mad Echo, and the eyes by Mad Echo are coming soon. The hair by LCKY was a Femboy Hunt prize last month. And the scarf is by Kariritaisho's own store, Hey Listen!

Zombie Apocalypse!

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: Everybody makes fun of the country boy until the zombie apocalypse.

Level up ends today! Don't miss this badass Swaggaa chainsaw. The Zombie Chewer comes with a hud to draw and sheath. It has sound effects and options for particles. But that's not all, it has a 2nd weapon and a wicked harness you might want to use even without the chainsaw! It comes in fitted mesh and non-rigged.You can draw and sheath the Zombie Chewer Knife from the harness also. You are animated like in the picture above when you draw, but also when you walk, it's like a menacing stealth walk. Sweet! From Frogstar is the fun Safe House gacha with many of the items you see here. The Portable Toilet is lol. The Safehouse is the rare. From Papermoon is the Head Cage, a beautifully made original mesh with rich textures. Our hero can just pop it on a zombie and let them starve to death. Hell, might even be able to tame a zombie with it, keep it as a pet if you don't mind the smell. lol The Cage Lamp and trash bags are by Kuro. The lamp turns on and off and triggers a lighting effect. The trashbags come with or without flies. Our ass-kicking country boy is wearing the new Brock shirt from the FATEwear fall line. The fatpack version will let you change the colors and textures. Shirt comes with the option for tucked and untucked. Look closely at the wrist, and you will see the cuff by 7 Mad Ravens has the Rebel Flag! There are other textures for cuffs you can get in black, silver plate, or cross. They come with an xyz resize script. On his hand, are the 7 Mad Ravens Noble and Virtue Rings. I moved and adjusted them for Slink hands. They include a xyz script. The Showdown boots and His Jeans pants by Deco work great with the top.

Campus Royal

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: If he had his way, he would stay in his posh royal bed, sipping blood wine, instead of braving the daylight, fangirls, and pompous professors who have no respect for the crown. It was dull. However, he rather enjoyed strolls in the shadow of the cathedral. No one bothered him there. He wasn't exactly sure why. The rumors the old place was haunted couldn't possibly be true, could it?

Did you pick up this awesome Fratboy suit by Swagga at 24 Squared? No? You better run! This sweet schoolboy outfit is a Limited Edition! Once its sold out, it's gone for good. Run Run, 24 closes tonight. There is a Light and Dark version. It comes with jacket and shirt, or just shirt, tie, and pants. It includes a texture change hud for the shirt color, tie, and belt. For the princely style is the new King hair by Ayashi. You can pick up at the Kings & Queen event. It comes with a materials enabled crown, and also a separate crown you can wear with any hair. The crown is mod so you can tint it. The beautifully crafted satchel is by David Heather. The bags come in either hippo or puppy, and has many different leather texture options. The bag comes rigged, non rigged, and has a pose trigger. The Wingtip shoes by Deco I love and they often come in handy. I am really loving the Echo skin by Tableau Vivant. If you missed it on sale, don't worry you can find it on the 2nd floor of the Tableau Vivant mainstore.

The Pleasure Palace: The Cowboy Stable

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: "A cowboy, is this really necessary?" The Eavesdropping Maid nodded eagerly, her dark eyes sparkling with mischief. He sighed heavily and changed into the costume of the Stable Boys.  How did he end up here? Once the drugs had worn off, it was not too difficult for the Cursed A.N.G.E.L to break loose from his bonds in the Eden Garden. He offered to release the girl too if she would do him two favors: one show him where Kujo was, and two feed him. She was not an Eden but as luck would have it, she was Near-Eden. He didn’t know if was an elaborate plan, or just dumb luck, but he was not going pass up a gift neck. She told him the Pleasure Palace was the Underworld Boss' private playground. It was full of mini-theme sections. The Cowboy Stable was the closest to the Mansion. So his plan was to sneak inside, and confront the double-crossing jerk Kujo.

Can you believe FATEplay is one year old? To celebrate, FATEplay has released a fantastic new collection for girls and guys in a Fallout theme. Above I am showing the bullet belt and very cool tattered bottom Duster from the Dusty set. The bullet belt is rigged, so it works best with the pants made for it, but I got away with this more revealing version. lol The underwear is by Ap.Parel and on sale at ROMP. The chaps by ZED are gorgeous. You can wear them with the jeans option or be daring and go without! The Gunslinger hat is by Remarkable Oblivion is stylized cowboy hat with a Fleur De Lis on the front. It's on sale at The Men's Department. It comes in two color choices, and includes materials or no materials options as well as the xyz resize script. The bandit muffler from Contraption was at The Dark Style Fair, and sadly it appears to no longer be available. The Showdown cowboy boots are by Deco. They come with two options: full boot and 1/2 shown. The half shown is REALLY handy and makes the boots fit the chaps perfectly. The arm warmers are by Razor and they work with Slink hands or default hands. They come a with hud to mix and match styles. On the hip is the Kuro prop whip on sale at ROMP, and in the hand is the flexi-mesh prop whip given out the Dysfunctional Designs Lotus Tree. My grinning Pony friend here has a secret. He can give you a nice time. lol He comes with texture change options for the horse, harness, and rocker. In the background, is the "real" palomino and he's not too sure about that toy horse who's up to no good. lol He's by United InshCon. lol He also has color change options for body, mane and tail. The stable I picked up over a year ago on 35L weekend. It has poses for thje haystack on the 2nd floor. Reminder: The end of the month is coming soon. If you haven't picked the Tableau Vivant Echo skin yet, hurry hurry. It includes the appliers on tone 5!

2065: Battle Bots 3

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: Was it a crime he loved his creation? Did it even matter? His EVA saved him, raising him up from a dull job repairing cargo ships to The Boy Genius of the Battle Bots. Sure she didn't have thoughts or feelings. He couldn't allow an AI to develop a conscious and suddenly loose the will to fight. She did what she was programmed to do. He lovingly slaved over her, pouring his soul into her design. She was so beautiful. He didn't know what he might do if she was ever defeated. Seeing her body broken and "lifeless," he might go insane and kill her murderer.

Did you go get the Deco shoes on sale for 50L yet? The sale ended on the 11th, however I was just there and prices are still marked at 50L! Run go get the goodies now before it ends! Pictures above are the cool Coalcracker boots by Deco. Mr GearGeek is sporting the new CogWorth Horns from Remarkable Oblivion available at The Secret Affair. The horns come with steam or no steam, materials or not. Each horn is separate so you can move them around, and like all RO things, it comes with x,y,z scaling menu. The Mechanics Bow Tie collar is also by Remarkable Oblivion. Tableau Vivant has a new hair n their Dreadlocks series, Darcy, at  Hair Fair 2014. It includes their Dreadlock texture colors. The goggles another steampunk theme creation by Eudora 3D available at We <3 RolePlay. It comes in several different colors, and it has a hud to change the lens color. Also at We <3 RolePlay is the wonderful utility belt by Death Row. I have been wanting a good tility belt in mesh for awhile now, and Death Row had now released nicely made one for girls and guys and it's steal at only 50L! The Shotaro jacket is a past release by FATEwear includes materials, as well as the Dueling Gloves by thier cosplay brand FATEplay. The Dueling Gloves come with a texture change hud and options for open and closed hands and cuff or no cuff. Deadwool currently has the Joad pants on sale at the discount at The Men's Department, however I wanted a plain black style instead. The pants come in 3 length options and worked perfectly with the boots. It's so hard to find good pants that work with boots! Once more I am using the handy Yumyuns cyber Wrench. You never know when you will need them. Hey, let your tools do the talking!

The Doomed Ship

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: As the date of the battle drew closer, the frenzy of betting against ex-A.N.G.E.L reached a fever pitch. The bookies hadn't seen this much action in years. Tickets to the match were sold out. People wanted to see real gore for a change. Just how vicious could a desperate vampire be? Wouldn't a bolt, bright as day, end the match before it even started? Or would the vampire surprise them with strange powers, such as regeneration? ... The night before the big match, Kujo's right hand man, Nocturne, called Team EVA's manager and requested a private meeting at the Church of the Damned. EVA's creator insisted he come along. He had a bad feeling about this; nothing in this city happened without Kujo's approval. He watched, his displeasure blatant, as Nocturne offered a bag full of something to his manager Octavia. It must have been very valuable too, since it had a demon protector. 

Kariritaisho returns to the blog as Team EVA's manager and er partner Remmock join the photoshoot playing the part of Kujo's agent Nocturne. They were both a joy to work with. Thanks so much to Kariritaisho and Remmy! She is wearing jacket and pants by ISON. The Asymmetrical jacket comes with a hud to change the undershirt color. The Lux hair by Spellbound is a brand new release. Her killer Mech Scorpion Tail was an old lucky board prize from Bunnystar, can you believe that? It's awesome! Her discs and glasses are by Graves. For the handshake pose, she used a hud you can find on the marketplace for only 40L. He is wearing the jacket and shirt Louie by Cool Nerd and it comes with a texture hud to change the shirt. His Blame hair by Magicka is one of those brilliant styles that works great for guys and girls. The satchel is another badass raffle prize from BareRose. Raffle prizes are transfer so if you go there to win one, make friends with other Raffle hunters and trade. His visor is a free gift by Bluecross and it comes in several colors. His nail polish is a gift from A:S:S. And his skin is by Aeros. You can't see the Baenar skin too well in this picture, but trust me when I say it gorgeous. I like it al ot. Hop over to the Aeros store and you can pick up Slink hands, feet and nail appliers for Baenar. These pictures were taken at The Doomed Ship which is one of the coolest RP sims on SL. I was very happy it's still around even if it's now PG rated. When you get to the core, it's a brand new ending too.

It comes with a color hud to add tints. The hair is a great new style by Damselfly at the Fantasy Gacha. It opens May 4th. The glasses are by Gos and you can wear them as glasses like I did here, or shades. Just touch the glasses and change the frame, shealth, lens color and opacity. I finally got a chance to use these DECO wingtip shoes, they work great for a bookish look here. The nails are a free polish you can find at the new location of A:S:S. The skin and slink applier for hands are Sean Tone 3 by Tableau Vivant.

Dolls of Christmas: Sweden

(click to enlarge)

Our next trip on the Dolls of Christmas tour takes us up north to the home of my friends in Sweden.

On the darkest day of winter, December the 13th, the people of Sweden hold flickering candles and give thanks for the sunlight with Saint Lucia showing the way with song, warm coffee, and sweet lussekatt buns. Lucia (or Lucy) means "light." She wears a long white dress with red sash and headdress of lingonberry branches and candles.

13 december var Sankta Lucia dag i sverige. Vi önskar alla en god Jul och ett gott nytt är 2013!
