SoSL Fantasy Blogger Challenge #3: The Minotaur

min·o·taur/ˈminəˌtôr/

A creature who was half human and half bull.

This challenge was actually tougher than I thought it would be.  I really love the idea of the Minotaur and of course, I wanted her to be perfect and, well, a “her”.   But the finished product was more lovely than I could have hoped for!

Letter from Jericho Jie on marketplace:

It has sadly come to my attention that certain items I created or co-created for Torvalds Forge are being sold again in Second Life by my former business partner Jona Aabye, without my knowledge or consent, in spite of the fact that Torvalds Forge closed down more than a year ago via mutual agreement. It should not have re-opened without the same mutual agreement.

This is why you now can own every Torvalds Forge item I could recover from my deleted account, and have directly worked on. And you can own them for FREE. Torvalds Forge should be dead and gone, but if it isn’t, you should not have to dole out your cash for any of the items that came from my hand.

*** THANK YOU for all the positive comments and encouraging remarks that I have received, and more so, thank you to the over three thousand people who have already downloaded this pack into their inventory. Your downloads mean that revenue is denied to someone who is undeserving of even a single cent of it. You guys have restored my faith in the inhabitants of the Metaverse, and hopefully helped teach a lesson. Cheers! ***

2. An image that appears only in the mind; an illusion.
3. Something dreaded or despised.
Sorry this one took me so long guys.  It was actually harder for me to come up with my version of a ghost than I thought!  But once this look fell together, I fell in love with it.  So here is my spectre.  I hope you enjoy her and I can’t wait to see your versions also!

Being Beachy!

No, I haven’t forgotten about the Fantasy Challenge.  But RL gets busy doesn’t it!?  Anywho, the Fantasy Challenge: Ghost is coming soon, maybe even today if I can hash it out.  But in the meantime, I wanted to share my thoughts on Fantasy Faire!  Guys, it was absolutely the best Fantasy Faire has ever been.  These guys just get better and better every year.  I totally fell in love with each of the sims and the sights and sounds in each.  The linear design was perfect and I didn’t miss a thing!  And if you were lucky enough to catch the giant, it was an amazing moment!  This pretty little number is one of the MANY things I picked up at the faire.  I love the simplicity, the mesh top is perfect, and the colors are very charming.  Kudos to Roawenwood for lovely designs that never go out of style!  And that hair?  You know it.  Wasabi Pills has done it again. :D   Credits to follow.

Calling All Bloggers!!! The SoSL Fantasy Blogger Challenge!

I’ve always loved seeing the blogger challenges.  I’ve always loved seeing other bloggers and enjoying their photography and their writing styles.  Now, finally, I’ve come up with a challenge of my own!  The name of the game is fantasy!  Of course, this is in honor of the upcoming Fantasy Faire… omg, cannot wait!!!  Each week I will come up with another fantasy creature for you all to put a look together for.  I would love to see any suggestions also!  I’ll give my own take on the creature as well as a good definition of each being.  Time period is completely unimportant.  Your vampire can be from the Dark Ages or a cell phone toting socialite.  The same goes for clothing.  Just because your subject is a fae, doesn’t mean she can’t be an 80′s fiend with shaggy hair and legwarmers!  :D   I want to see what you come up with.  The only rule is to have fun!  I can’t wait to see what you all come up with, and I hope that I get lots of people participating!  I plan to make a flickr group just for this challenge and I hope to see lots of pics and comments! :D   Have fun!

Our first creature is a fan favorite:  Vampire.   Get all vampy guys!

Square in Your Ship’s Path are Sirens, Crying…

It is natural to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes to that siren until she allures us to our death.

Things Tend to Come Out in the Wash…

This little cutie was released for the Gorean Room awhile back, but luckily it’s still available at the main store. The design does include an adorable laundry basket that’s worn like a backpack, and believe me when I say this thing is cute and great for rp. But the design itself is quite lovely and classically Gorean, which is something that May Tolsen is superb at. I love my beautiful silks and decadence is my middle name, but when it comes to attractive and grungy slave wear, May’s Soul is incomparable. Check her out guys. :)
