Spring Days with Studio Sidhe and Oh My Stars!

Hi Everyone!

Today a really fun hunt starts at Oh My Stars! The theme is April Showers bring May Flowers ( which totally works if you're in the Northern Hemisphere... or so I've been told! LOL).

Being an Aussie and from Queensland in particular, we don't really have four seasons, down south they have more variation, but where I am we pretty much just have summer and winter... just a fun fact I'd thought I'd throw in! :D

Anyways!

I made a wearable multipose prop for the event... a hat! :D One thing I do know about living down under is the sun!






The hat has 5 fun poses so you can look all stylish and blissful while you celebrate the season and for only 10L while the hunt is going on.

Because I suck at hunts, and think that some things should just not be painful; I've made the hunt object (a rain drop) rather large and have the pics of the 5 poses leading you to the hunt item... cause I'm nice heehee

There are some amazing stores that I'm sure you'll enjoy as you hunt around the two Oh My Stars! sims... can't wait to see your pics of all the goodies you'll pick up! :D

[SLurl to Studio Sidhe at Oh My Stars!]

Enjoy!

A taste of the masculine...

Hi everyone!

Today I'm pleased to announce Studio Sidhe's participation in the first Menswear Monday event! :D

Basically the deal is that for one day only men can choose from a selection of creations and designs from some awesome SL brands at a price that won't make them cry...EVERYTHING there is 100L or UNDER :D

I LOVE this as I have often thought the men of SL do get somewhat forgotten... and I admit that while I have almost always had items for men in store, it's a long time between mens releases... I do however let myself off the hook there somewhat as my store name *is* Studio SIDHE (pronounced SHEE) heehee Even so, Men have for years been requesting I make more mens stuff and so, I've made this pose prop...especially for men...

Enjoy!

The Tale of Snow White... version 2!

I am thrilled to be announcing this... some of you might remember the "light" first version of this pose prop from the WILD.Released event last year, or from the UWA Art Challenge recently...

It was after many requests to make a version of this prop that I could sell that I decided to raise the bar (as I am want to do) and challenge myself to make this already unique prop the piece of art that I am releasing officially today, and right in time for Valentines Day!

The set comes with the glass coffin with both the red velvet bedding or a gray tintable bedding, the faery forest backdrop (YES! I did paint that! *puffs out chest proudly*) and light beam with particle effects :D

For more pictures please see the talented work of Rylan Carling Post [1][2][3], Carthalis Rossini and Strawberry Singh.

P.S. Big thank you's go out to Ted Cornell for scripting this thing & making what was in my head actually work! and thanks to Tamzin Xigalia for her wonderful work in creating the pics for the ad insets. Thank you!

P.P.S. Call me psychic but have a sneaking suspicion that Snow White gown sales over at Deviance are about to go through the roof! LOL

Couples Poses, Fund Raiser & Pose hunt! :D

Hi all,

I've been sending notices about this, but haven't blogged about it till now... my state, Queensland, where I was born and where I live has been hit with extreme floods. 3/4 of the state has been declared a natural disaster area and that area to give you some idea I've heard the size of the area given as being bigger than Germany and France put together... bigger than Texas. Whatever, it's a lot... a lot of land, a lot of people and whole lot of lives effected by this disaster.

Sanura Sakai, proprietor of Sanu and a fellow Queenslander, has got together a wonderful array of people to raise money for the Premier's Flood Relief Appeal. There are a number of awesome events going on that are linked into this and the Extend a Helping Hand Market.

I have made the Daisy Parasol for the event and 100% of the proceeds from those sales is going to the Relief fund. You can also donate through the kiosks you'll find at the market, in the stores of those participating in the market and at a number of other locations around the grid... or you can donate directly through the link above. The support has been overwhelming so far and many more people are joining in to give generously of their creativity, time and money. Thank you!



The 3rd ProPoser Hunt is underway! and Studio Sidhe is of course participating in this great event. The above pic is the couples pose which you can find at #10 on the hunt :D There are some AMAZING poses and pose props on offer in this hunt so I encourage you to participate, you'll see some old favourites and discover some shiny new pose makers in SL! :D




Also! I've just released this couples pose which you can find in our main store HERE.

We're in the process of installing new fun stuff around the store so please ignore the mess as best you can! LOL

Enjoy!

The Merry Satyr Comes to Studio Sidhe! :D

Well hello there! :D

You noticed that I've dropped my wings and picked up some awesome new Digi Legs from Gauze did you? LOL Never fear! I'm a modern Faery, I have detachable wings and have them safely tucked away.

Now! What about these legs!?!

Aren't these the most amazing Faun legs you've ever seen? Awesome is what Yukio Ida, amazing creator behind Gauze does, she was after all the person behind those mindblowingly brilliant Mer Avatars.

When Yuki sent me the legs to crash test I was jumping around so excited and immediately got a gazillion ideas for poses to go with them. Luckily I was able to catch a few of these ideas and create them before they flew away again!



I made both a multi-pose prop with three Merry Satyr poses. This is of course menu driven with adjustable pose positions. The stump also comes with wearable Pan Pipes as well as a set of pipes for you to rezz that will give your friends a set of Pan Pipes too! :D



Next, I made a set of five single Merry Satyr poses which you can purchase separately or buy as a set [see below]. You also get a set of wearable Pan Pipes to go with the pose, if buying single poses, don't forget to get your pipes from the Pan Pipe giver near the stand :D



You can find both the Digi Legs (which also come in fantastic demon varieties) and the Merry Satyr Poses at both Gauze @ Twilight and Studio Sidhe Mainstore

You can also find the poses on the Marketplace.

Until next time,

Enjoy!

P.S. Also don't forget the Call for Couture Festival and Auction!!!!

WILD.Released Prize Preview :D

Okay, so many of you know that I have been a long time fan of Discord Designs... have even done some work with Kalli (creative genius behind said label). Kalli has been working for ages on these awesome new textures she's launching for the WILD.Released hunt, and I love them, they're not your usual dodge & burn jobs, although yes, they can be lovely too. These are really different to what you usually see in SL, they pull the various colours our of the strands of hair just like RL hair does :D

Okay, so that's a little bit about the textures...now check the style! My RL person is much like my SL avi, we both have zero interest in primping for hours in front of a mirror, so tend to have hair that is kind of messy, and care free LOL and this style is soooooo me. Kalli has nailed the way hair falls, how it goes just a little bit flat at the center top of your head and how the tendrils of hair that didn't quite make it into the ponytail fall...LOVE it, attention to detail like that gets me every time!

I'm also showing some of the pose prop laptops made by new comer Milli Santos, Milli has been around SL for a bit, but her store No Strings Attached is a new comer to the pose making arena. I REALLY like these poses. Very natural, there are a whole selection to choose from with all the every day annoyances, hilarity and quirky humour that life with a PC will bring you :) No Strings Attached is now part of the Oubliette crew, so go check her store out! :)

I'm also showing a the bracelet from the awesome Flipside prize babydoll outfit which was blogged here by TearSong Vaughan.

Once Upon a Time...

There was a woman by the name of Snow White, and she had a bit of mishap involving a wicked witch and a poisonous apple... as you do when you eat stuff given to you by randoms on the street... just saying :P

Luckily for Snow white she was a bit of a looker (Aussie slang for someone who is attractive) & was packed up in a glass coffin and put on display. Had she been somewhat less easy on the eye she might well have been buried straight away, and the tale would have ended pretty much there.

Snow White had a fella, who was a handsome prince... handy. Where is my handsome prince? Bastard Fates! *shakes fist*... oh oops, yeah right, this story is not actually about me, so moving right along... Prince charming hears the news, finishes his beer and then rushes to be by the side of his beloved Snow White... okay everyone...1, 2, 3... AWWWWWWWWWWW!

And THAT's where WE begin our part of the tale!:D



This is a VERY special pose prop, it's been MONTHS in the making (seriously; MONTHS), the glass coffin is scripted to take you and your other half/mate/person who just happened to be available, to jump on the other pose ball... through the three scenes shown above :) These are sweetly emotive and tell the story of how it all ended for Prince Charming and Snow White... You can have your happy ending OR if like me, you like an ending with a twist in the tale (which you may have gathered from the first part of this post...) there is an alternate ending for you :D So four scenes in all!

I would like to say a special thank you to Ted Cornell, the scripting genius who created the scene builder scripts necessary to bring this pose prop into reality. Ted is amazing, we first worked together on the texture change version of the Music Box that I released a few months ago.

This pose prop is a prize for the WILD.Released hunt starting on the 20th of March, 2010 it will only be available for the duration of the hunt which ends on the 18th of April.

So what is WILD.Released? I'm sure you've been hearing people mention it by now or seen the ads for the other prizes on flickr here. This is event will showcase the work of these participants shown below:



The participants are, I think you'll agree, some of SL's most creative and brilliant creators who's success in SL has been due to their creativity, skills and most importantly their passion. Creators who dared to be wild; and bring you... WILD.Released!

Until next time, have fun,

Alice Loitering Among the Shrooms @ Studio Sidhe

Hi everyone!

As I'm sure most of you know, Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland has been released and everyone is back to talking about this classic tale :D

A while a go a shout out was given for creators who wanted to be a part of an event in SL to celebrate the release of the film. I jumped on it as an excellent opportunity to do two things I've wanted to do for a long time... make my own 'shroom poses and use my clock face texture that I made ages ago for a pic on my flickr stream for something in SL! So hooray! both missions accomplished with this pose prop! :D

Sadly the event is for all intents and purposes canceled, as I was informed today, so while that is sad thing, at least the other designers and myself still have our creations to release :D

So lets talk about the shrooms! *grins* They can be either a pose prop or they can be used as a feature for your garden. With 6 fun poses and the prop itself being of a quality and style I'm sure you've come to recognise as being distinctly Studio Sidhe. You're bound to have heaps of fun with this! :D

Alice Loitering Among the Shrooms is available either in world at our main store or on Xstreet.

Until next time,

Take care and have fun,

~Faery~

Big things this week @ Studio Sidhe :D

Hi Everyone!

I have a couple of things to tell you about today!

First up! Shoes and Accessories Hunt!!! :D This is set to be BIG! I had a look through the participant list and I was all wow, so going to be doing this myself! LOL and yes you may even be treated to another one of my oh so stylish fashionista hunt reviews!LOL (watch this space!)

A bit about my offering for the hunt... this is officially my very first handbag, and yes, BOMBSHELL that it's a hippie bag! *picks you up off the floor* and is unisex. It has a resize script, so you can get it to fit you :D It's also called Sunbury... fun fact: You know that little concert America had outside Woodstock in NY state in 1969? Yeah well Australia (land from whence I come), had it's very own music festival, but annually, 'cause we just have way too many great bands to fit into one weekend! *ducks and runs* (I just cant help but stir heehee). Okay, it was an annual event that lasted three years, but GO US!!!

In other news!



OMG! seriously, there are no words for just how EPIC a saga this special edition texture change music box was to bring into reality. I sooo wanted to have this ready and out with the single texture boxes, but it looked nearly to be an impossible task which I had all but given up on until a lovely man by the name of Ted Cornell came along and offered his help.

Thanks to Ted this special edition of the music box is texture change, so you can choose between all 7 designs, and still has the animated box feature which rocks and has 9 beautiful ballerina poses for you to choose from a menu :D It's a very detailed pose prop and I am quietly confident that there is nothing like this on the grid, because no one else would be as crazy as me to even attempt this! LOL

But because this box looked likely to never happen the way I had envisioned, but is miraculously here... I'm offering it for the special price of $500L until the 14th of February (after that you will have to basically give me your first born in order to get one) so I do recommend that you get in and get yours before V-day ;)

You can get them at Studio Sidhe in world or on Xstreet if you wish to purchase it for a friend :)

Until next time,

Enjoy!

A Touch of Magic to Start 2010 @ Studio Sidhe

Happy New Year to you all! :D

This is a really special release to start 2010 off for Studio Sidhe... a beautiful & magical music box unlike any other where you get to step into this magical world... But there are other music boxes in SL you say? Yes there are, & there are some lovely ones, but nothing quite like this!

Don't believe me? Then watch the video below:



or see it on YouTube



The pose prop comes with 9 poses of a quality that is indicative of Studio Sidhe. The pose prop itself comes in a selection of 7 beautifully and originally textured & built boxes, and as you saw in the video, it has something special about it ;). You can try a demo in world at Studio Sidhe's main store or purchase one for you and your friends at
Xstreet

We thank you for your support throughout 2009 and look forward to bringing you more fun, original & quality creations in 2010.

Some Winterstock Fun!

Hi Everyone!

Presenting Studio Sidhe's Winterstock exclusive pose prop for Christmas!!! You'll find it HERE. We're sharing a space with Evie's Closet, so come down & check it out :D

I do encourage you to get it within the next week, as I am planning on making other things for our Winterstock space, but will be swapping out the stuff that is already there... so don't miss out!
