Dip

I had to check out Valaskala, the exhibit by Instincta and Stem van Helsinki. I was kind of just bouncing around jumping off the planets and things until I got down to the whale on the land level. The animation (Animlia) I used for the picture was in their single avatar pose tool diamond. I used region settings for windlight but added a bit of gamma to show you details of the outfit better. Check out this exhibit at LEA19 with the sounds on as they are a big part of the installation. (Pieni wrote about the exhibit on the Galleria Kakku blog).

Art Fairy Tale

I like using art galleries as places for fashion shots, because I do not want to risk any art work security by straight shots of the works, but want to share these locations to promote them. I found this gallery through the Enchantment event. Visit The Lost Unicorn Gallery:  A Fantasy Art Fairy Tale, Ethereal.

I went to see The Gathering by Bryn Oh, and I am so happy that I finally have a computer that lets me put the settings like she instructed. Just makes the whole experience better.

Cold as Ice

You can wear the dress without the mantel, if you need to be able to move your arms. The mantel for me at least worked more as a pose prop. I really love the hand and feet appliers by Fallen Inc. Both are gifts! They had several options for types of appliers etc, too. I will try to take a picture for another post with the feet showing. This time I opted on a closer look of the top of the body. I have been finding amazing gifts at different events, and will try to show as many as I can, soon.

Science fashion

I am so sorry for not blogging fashion, lately. I have been so swamped with different projects. I want to especially apologize to people who have sent in items for blogging and have not seen enough of their items used. I will try to do better in the future. I am happy to be in your regular groups instead of blogger ones, and come over to buy new items, instead of getting free samples. I joined your blog teams because I loved your items, not to run off with your stuff ;). <3 You decide, honored to stay in blog groups, but really you need to do what is best for your brand, and I am happy to support you either way.

I have finally set up a new look for Alana, based on the Maitreya Lara body. I am really loving it! So much more practical to use this than alphas and separate bodyparts, etc. Way more options for custom looks than first appears. I made my own shape and love how easy that was. And being able to use make up layers and such on the head, still, was a great positive surprise.

Hair: Gauze: Wisp, Color-Ified
Eyes: Gauze: Elemental, Animus, Human (Thanks Yukio!)
