I've had this picture done for a little while, and often when I go back to seeing a photo i'd edited a while back, I hate it.. with this one, I'm not having that feeling with this, so that's a bonus!
I don't have anything fancy to say, so i'm just gonna give you some credits, okay?
Absolutely LOVE how this photo came out, and just as well, too, because it took me bloody ages to capture!
I also tried some new things with the ripple detailing. Every time I do a picture involving water, I like to add a little something new, and I'm thrilled with this one! Now I just need to work out how to get droplets on my skin... *flails wildly*
To my absolute amazement I was offered a position as a Secret Affair blogger.
I'm not entirely sure what I did to deserve this, but I am obviously thrilled!
This round, the theme is "Isle of the Devil's Sea", and you can find some more information on designers and other such awesome on their website >Here<
The event opened today, so make sure you take a look around and grab some goodies!
Unfortunately, Pickle is still sitting in uncomfortable RL misery -wails dramatically- while this sickness kicks my butt, however, I am thoroughly enjoying this look of "Terribly dramatic half-mermaid being terribly dramatic in what is essentially a back-garden pond."
Skin fair opens today (8th March) and for those of you not aware, get yourself excited!!
Today I'm showing off the Lotus "Louise" skin. I've tried to edit this main picture minimally, and all i've done is add shading and a slight colour balance on the windlight I used because I believe it's important to show you how the skin looks in reality. If you need an entirely unedited photograph, the three grey pictures below will show you the skin, in tone 01, on ultra but with no shadows on the firestorm viewer.
I'm thoroughly impressed with this skin. I believe the body has been completely re-done in time for the skin fair, and they are smooth, the shading is perfect, and I am in love with the face so much - I didn't even need to change my shape on the Uma head from catwa! That's a massive bonus for me!
Behind the flailing Pickle you'll notice a gorgeous seat and wooden box that totally looks like it belongs either under the sea in a fancy sunken ship, or on the deck of a gorgeous weather-beaten chalet close to the beach. It's from Refuge, who are fast becoming a favourite of mine in terms of home decor, especially because the items are so diverse, you're bound to find something to suit your taste. It can be found at the Remnant event currently going on within SL, and is now a permanent addition to the landing point at Consent!
When I started this post, I wanted to make it so that it looked like I was crawling out of the sea after a ship-wreck. Now however, I'm getting more like vibes of the Little Mermaid after she sells her voice to gain her legs, which is why I kinda cut my legs off. Think of this as the Little Mermaid waking up, dazed and confused, and she hasn't yet taken a look below her waist to find out if her wish has been granted.
However you view this picture, I hope you find something that piques your interest, and as usual, all Landmarks are listed below.
Eye Applier : LOTUS. Studio Eyes (Gacha) @ TCF (Having watched the organizers over the last few years, & in light of recent new issues, I'll no longer be supporting this event by promoting them with a landmark to their location.)
