Virtual Textures are Amazing

If you don’t know me, I’m Miidasu, a new contributor the blog.

I’m a metaverse newbie. I have just joined SecondLife and IMVU, and I have been on Frenzoo for almost a year now. When it comes to virtual worlds, I'm a first class neanderthal. If you see a brunette in a red coat wandering aimlessly in Second Life--that would be me.

As I continue in the young days of my virtual journey, I’m finding something amazingly fantastic.

Textures.

It seems so simple. In the real world, I hardly pay attention to textures.

I'm becoming deeply attached to Koinup, where I'm finding incredible pictures that highlight amazing textures. I can imagine how the fabric would feel on the tip of my fingers just by looking at it.

I'm awestruck by the realism. Just look at these examples I found on Koinup:

Silvergirl by TheVitaLong

Another beautiful work by TheVitaLong

Jewelry for the Eyes by Conniesec.

This one is proof that textures apply to skins, too.

Thanks for reading! For now I'm off to discover more pixelated textures.

Stunning inspiration

The blog I found which lots of inspired photographs were posted in.

Pombom!

This is my thought in these photos.

Gears are like the time,

Although it is colorful world in that moment, human were eager to escape from time constraints.

Avatar Design Comparison

I started a little project making a avatar comparison, using simple t-shirts templates from a few well known 3D simulation games and virtual worlds.

Denim and Leather

Hey all!

Hows it going? So have been doing a bit of exploring - and wow I am just inlove with this denim and leather collection by DE Designs on SL, the attention to detailing is superb, and I love the denim cropped jackets silhouette, with the asymmetric look. The belt with the denim drape is ever so cute, how totally inspiring! :D


Makes me want to go create an all denim line now! If I only had the time :(

Much love to all!

Virtual MakeupCraze

Hi! It's my first post here :)

How often do you have a vivid makeup? or just at party night?

Diverse style of makeup usually are related to different preferences and personality.

I found some cool eyeshadow and decor.

I personally like the nude lip colour.

Light colour is supposed to represent kindness but dark is for strict and cool.

Virtual Beach Resort

It's finally here! The new 3D scenes we've been hearing so much about have launched. Let's just say, they are completely different from the 2D backgrounds and will take sometime to get used to. Overall I think this will be a great new feature, I'm a big The Sims fan and spend most of my time decorating/customizing rooms. Now, if only the avatar could walk or have a mall center for shops, oh and group meeting place...just throwing out some ideas ;p

Happy 2010!

Happy New Year everyone!

I had a very relaxing holiday break, met up with some old friends and listen to Lady Gaga nonstop. During the break I had time to work on new face tattoos. I feel these to be an improvement from my first set of face tattoos, they work with the "amine faces" some Ztylists have (the last ones didn't). Working on the nose bridge and eyebrows drive me crazy! They are so difficult to get right and turn out too narrow. Only four tones in this batch, I think I will limit the amount of tones in shop, unless requested. I'm looking at photo-skinning the next batch of face tattoos but maybe only the nose and eyebrows XD!

Now back to Lady Gaga, January Cosplay contest is Lady Gaga inspired! I rarely get excited for contest themes (another JFashion contest plz!) but I've already started creating a few outfits for this one.

New! Luna Face tattoo makeup
