Herp'n The Derp

Being Cheap in CheerNo

A mostly freebie/1 L look today than a roleplay look, since CheerNo recently released a new 1 L group gift. To note, the resize scripts in the CheerNo set are not deletable and no mod. And thus I set out today to create an outfit based around the vest part of the outfit. I just wish there were delete or mod option in the script, being low lag is always a wonderful thing.

I popped over to Gabriel and what a surprise when I found a bunch of group gifts and 1 L items I had not seen before, including these amazing boots. There are both black (as seen in the photo) and brown opnions as well a two sets of women’s heels. As usual Gabriel has 50-70% of certain items on sale, it’s always worth the trip!

As for the sake, I had to blog about even if it has been out a while. REPULSE , master of gore and blood, has the perfect thing for the vampire hunter’s hunted. The blood is on multpile layers, even a tattoo one! And it’s only 100L! Worth it for the price, and they have two sets of eyes as a gift for the Dirty Turkey hunt. So grab your clothing layers and prim hair, and teleport over!

Raiding Bits and Pieces

A character idea outfit today! I have not been feeling super creative with my female forms, I blame all the new male skins I have. Anyway, today is something a little grimmy and dirty. I love the feel of grunge on an avatar, the dirt… the grime… I feel a lot of Second Life clothing is too “clean” and neat, perfect in everyway.

Unless it’s some slutty “torn” wear that doesn’t even look properly beaten up, more like someone was trying to rip it off you, which is nice for the sexually active of us on SL, but I am sure everyone, including us roleplayers want to look like that

When a designer makes a something dirt-stained or ripped and modest: a torn sweater with a sprinkle of dust, a ripped tank top while the rest of it remains instant, etc, I love it. But since there is a huge lack of proper “dirty” clothing on SL, you must mix, match and mod till you find the right look. It must be hard for those who roleplay in apocalyptic or harsh environments to find proper clothing.

So, Here is dark and dirty number for those who a scavenging the barren scape of dirty torn clothing.

Layer All The Things!

One of the greatest additions to Second Life in the past year and nine months I’ve been here has to be the allowance of multiple layers of clothing. My personal favorite is to mash tattoo layers together, as you can see here! Currently, the max is 3-4 layers of “clothing” per time, hopefully it will expand to more layers, I’d love to wear even more tattoos. 

Speaking of tattoos, Vitani, owned of ni.ju, has been busy lately! She has been releasing tons of new items for her store in the few past weeks, including the Amped piercing and tattoo set, and the Red Panda Colors Eye set and make up (tattoo layer) set which are seen on my punky character avatar, Gig. (Yes, Gig is a natural blond thus the blond eyebrows, damn kids and there crazy hair-dying ways!) [The eyes of the Red Panda set are not seen here.] There is a free verison of the Red Panda make up in a color not released in store,  but it is only accessible by joining the ni.ju group and checking the notices.

It’s a free group to join and Vitani is generous, giving out group gifts and notices about her new releases frequently. As for the Amped set, it is a round two item for Perfect Wardrobe, the theme being music this round, lots of cool stuff for low low prices if you have not been. 

While I was on the perfect wardrobe sim, I dropped by the sorry.asia mainstore and picked up this amazing group gift eyes which has a nice speckled look in them while still remaining a little animalistic looking with the silt pupil. Worth the trip if you ask me, it comes with a more normal verison as well, and a few other gifts laying about. And thats all for now!

The Freebie Looks: Part 2

More hunt goodies, group gifts and a lucky board this time around for the men of second life! First, lets talk skin again. (oh baby) This time around, I’m wearing the newest lucky board skin from Mr. Poet, the Lieber, which is a step above their other skins. The attention to detail of this muscular skin is amazing, I cannot believe this is only a five minute lucky board. It comes with the skin, shape (no mod) and a eyebrow shaper. I’m wearing one of my own shapes with it, so see the rare sight of a manly Pie.

Today’s freebies are a mixture of the seasons hunt gifts which have been blogged to death and group gifts for a winter time look. These jeans are from the Tony group gift from Ydea, and personally my favorite part of the outfit. And I’m channeling a bit of my inner Eiran, by wearing a the freebie female hair gift from :esk-imo. It can be found in one of the little gift boxes strewn around the store.

The Freebie Looks:

So after finally catching up on my hunting, I thought I would do a post for the freebie hunters, though you’ve all probably gotten these lovely items. If not, go grabs these fantastic items before they dissappear forever!

First up, the girl! I love this hunt skin from :esk-imo, who is more known for her cute woman’s hairstyles rather than her skin work. But despite having a small section with only a few skins, her skins are amazing. They are so worth the money and even better when they are free. I do wish they had multiple eyebrow color shades rather than one, or an add on tattoo layer so I can wear different hair colors and make it look natural, but begger’s can be choosers. This free skin comes with various make-up options much like her pay skins, three different shades of blush and autumn themed make up not seen here.

I decided to go a little Halloween themed and what place better than REPULSE to get some hunt items, more of their stomach cuts as I call them tattoos were released for the Zombie Popcorn hunt as well as a neat face clawing tattoo layer which is perfect for roleplay! But, lets move on to the style sheet! Boys, your freebie style card is coming up next!

Forest Dweller’s New Smokes

SUP

So as an intro post, this is a little outfit for my character Pieta, one of my oldest characters. Due to an old friend coming back, I felt the urge to update her a bit! So I rummaged around my inventory and came up with this little number.

As a side note, I love the [Contraption] Eye Spy fatpack. Besides being animated with an almost “flickering” animation within the eye, there is also a very slight “glow” effect that shows when you display a darker windlight.  The fact it’s more of a “contact” rather than a prim eye, meaning it goes over your base eyes is another huge plus. You can make some really interesting effects by playing with different eyes and the different colors of the Eye spy. It’s perfect for a cybernetic eye for your more “robotic” or “cyberpunk” character.

Now for what you really care about.
