Gorean Room (13th Round)

Have you been eyeing some of our unrigged mesh jewelry, but have been intimidated by the price? Well then, if you make your way down to the Gorean Room between now and the 15th of April, you can pick up a pair of our Gold Cylinder Anklets for only 50L.

[HANDverk] Wingback Chair – Warrior Edition

Our Mesh Warrior Wingback Chairs are highly detailed and textured, complimenting any decor. The richly rendered ruined, brown, black or tan leather makes the seat inviting to both singles and couples, with high quality sit and cuddle animations. Each chair comes with sculpted horns and other variations, for a unique look great for role-play purposes or as a curio piece.

Features:

1. Mesh chair (requires a mesh compatible viewer to see it).
2. Sculpted accessories.
3. Nine male sits.
4. Nine female sits.
5. Six couples sits.
6. Thirteen prim equivalents.
7. Featured animation menu system which requires no unsightly poseballs. The male simply clicks on the seat back and the female on the seat bottom to sit and bring up a gender-specific menu from which they can pick from over 24 animated poses.
8. Sit positions can be adjusted from the menu and will be stored indefinitely for each avatar.

To see and try out this chair, please come to our mainstore.

The [H] Look #19

I really adore this headdress from the now defunct Anaphora, but it’s such a large and complex piece, I have been kind of waiting for the right outfit to come along to wear it with. This layered tartan-y skirt felt like the right thing to go with this wild head wear. I have to admit I’m quite pleased with how it all pulled together at the end.

Once I had this all put together, I still felt it was missing a necklace. Though, I didn’t want to disturb the neckline  defined by this grid-ubiquitous shrug by Zaara. While out grabbing a few poses for this set of images, I stumbled upon Kari over at Tableau. It’s a small store with mainly accessories, the sculpt work is great, so I picked up a few necklaces and things that I think would blend in well with my style.

Anyway, that is about all there is to say about the styling end of this post. On a more designer note, I have our new Iman paint on, layered with part of our older Marcial Face Paint. I realized that I tend to use the red paint layer quite a bit under other paints to give it more color and some more pizzazz. So, I might make a pack of half face paints for layering. Or something like that.

[HANDverk] Etain Face Paint

We did make a promise to give our Update Group a free face paint every month. So this month we have our Etain Face Paint available at our mainstore. We’ll only keep it out for February, so come on by and get yours. Did we mention our Update Group is free to join?

This paint was actually requested by a friend of mine, based on the paint seen on the character Etain in the movie Centurion. As with most film productions that have Pict characters, they are usually shown with body paint that is dyed blue with woad (thanks to Braveheart). Yet we don’t really know whether or not the Picts painted themselves with woad, the only historical reference is one small passage made by Julius Caesar.

Anyway, we we included a white version, so you can tint it to whatever color you fancy.

At the Gorean Room Again

There is a new round at the Gorean Room, which means, more discounted paint! We’re putting out our Sigi Body Paint for 50L, so come by the sim and get yours before the end of the month. This paint is quite versatile and popular with Panther Girls and anyone with a penchant for painting up their bodies, either for role play or just having a little fun.

The [H] Look #9

My friend Mia brought up an interesting observation on her blog, Jumphearts, about Second Life fashion blogs: many of them are word light. Sure, people list where their stuff is from, but a majority of the time they do not bother to write more than that. Which is kind of the bare minimum.

I have had a blog of some kind for many years. Most of them have been personal blogs, or blogs that lacked any kind of singular focus. In fact, many people in-world know I have two Second Life blogs, this one, which is mainly about things in our store or fashion posts I do for fun, and Sigi Takes Gor, which is a chronicle of role-play adventures (which occasionally, gets quite profane). Sigi’s blog isn’t updated all too much because I took a long break from role play things, though it might pick up since that avatar is in a new group.

That being said, this outfit is worn by Sigi and photographed at Skerry of Einar. I had been looking for pants that puffed out around the thighs that would look good with tall boots, these I saw first on the Role Play Styles blog (also with the same boots). I have the hardest time finding pants that I like in general, so it’s quite a feat to have stumbled onto them. Everything else was kind of tossed on, I layered part of our Talen Face Paint with the new Atl Face Paint that is available at the [HANDverk] mainstore until February.

Oh, and Tera Varriale, who is also found in Einar, made these henna hand tattoos!
