- At least one avatar posed using the Goddess Moon pose/s from Studio Sidhe.

Poses, Hair Fair and MORE Poses @ Studio Sidhe

HUGE stuff afoot this week!!! Collaborations with some awesome creators, poses, and way more!!!



First up. Hair Fair! There is this mad awesome hair maker there by the name of Kallisti Burns, she's the creator behind Discord Designs and she has made some MINDBLOWINGLY fantastic braids! I've made some funky rainbow beads to go with one of her Hair Fair exclusive styles, Yolanda. You can get the hair at Hair Fair and the beads at either Discord Designs or Studio Sidhe.

Next up, another collaboration... this one with Saiyge Lotus of Balderdash:



This is a very unique pose set with four individual poses and four person group pose. Eight poses in all. This will be a definite feature in your lake, pond, or wherever you choose to hang out with your friends in SL.

This was a LOT of fun to make, Saiyge has made the fantastic moon and star sculpts and the the beautiful textures while I went mad with the the poses. To get an idea of the poses, see the pics below:



You can see and play with these in world at either Balderdash or Studio Sidhe.

Next up! A new pose prop available at Studio Sidhe and Xstreet:



AND a new group gift is also out in store. Just wear your in world group tag to get your free pose from the vendor :D



On a final note before I publish this post, I'd just like to thank the people who have sent IM's and notecards thanking Evie and I for hosting the Goddess Moon Photographic Competition. The comments have been really lovely. So thank you, and yes, to all those who have asked, I would love to host an equally imaginative and fun photo comp in the future. Don't forget to get your entries in if you haven't already, the competition closes on the 29th of June, 4am SLT.

Until next time,

Enjoy!

Rainy Day People @ Studio Sidhe


Hi Everyone!!!

New pose for you... works for both men & women...


This is a single pose with wall/window prop. The mood of this piece is set by the pose leaning up against rain drenched glass window, looking down to the world outside.

The exterior of the wall is rain soaked brick texture with interior soft wall textures.

* Original textures and pose
* Copy/Mod so you can change the position of the pose to suit male or female height, change textures or pull the pose out to use in another setting entirely :D
* Animated rain texture on glass window adds both mood & sense of realism.

Available at our main store & Xstreet

Enjoy!

~Faery~

PS would love to see what you do with this so please feel free to add your pics to the Studio Sidhe Flickr group & see what other wonderful work others are doing.

PPS! this is only $100L at our main store until Midnight SLT tonight!!!! so jump in quick!

:+:SS:+: Goddess Moon [Multi-Pose] Set!!!


Hi-ya Everyone!

OMG!!! I am soooo excited to be announcing this! I have news; I bought Poser!!!! *happy dance*

It's been something I've been saving up for ages, so to finally get it has been very exciting :D


I also happened to be doing a lot of moon gazing during the last full moon... put the two together, and you get my latest release!

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did making it. The moon is copy/mod so you can play with textures, rip the poses out of the moon and use them elsewhere if you wish AND the pose positions are adjustable... so it's about as flexible as you can possibly get.

The moon is currently out at a special introductory price, so race in early.

Available in world at Studio Sidhe or on Xstreet.

Thanks Everyone,

Enjoy!

Thank You Evie! =D



Evangeline Miles is a mate of mine, she also happens to be the amazing mind, skill and talent behind Evie's Closet. I don't give praise lightly, and those that know me will tell you that I tell it how it is. I KNOW how much time and effort goes into Evie's creations, I know the care and attention that she gives to each piece... anyone with an observant eye can see the quality of her work.

Sadly Evie has been having a rough time of it, it appears that not everyone can appreciate such fine work, beautiful detailing or the effort, skill and talent that goes into making her gowns or just how ridiculously under priced her gowns are...

So I sent out a call in plurk to the woman on my friends list yesterday and was heartened by the response to join me in a little project to show how much we care about Evie and what her work means to us.

I was inspired by a comment on plurk that someone made; "when I wear Evie's dresses, I feel like a princess" (or words to that effect) so I wanted a way to show Evie that there where people in SL who do appreciate her work, and what it means to them.

So we came up with a group pic... always a hard thing to round up a bunch of people in SL, but many people wanted to be a part of this! Thank you to everyone who participated and to everyone who sent messages supporting Evie :)

So thank you everyone and most of all, Thank you Evie... for making these spectacular gowns and for putting your heart into your creations.

*hugs*

The Silver Lake Project

ziggyworking
Hullo. I am here on Faery's blog to let you know about some exciting plans in the works for my sim, Silver Lake, as well as my store the not particularly famous Ziggy's Quirks. Silver Lake has been around for three years now, and it's time for a full overhaul. Not to mention Ziggy's Quirks which has been bopping around for nigh on 5 years in one form or another. It's time to polish up the bears and add some new funnifications to the SL world. And yes, make the store bigger better and more.. more!

With Shelly Toonie of Moonshine Fine Clothing moving on to bigger and better things, the time is right to create a new and frankly tinglemaking place for you to explore, hang out and shop. Unique boutique stores will be available for rent, so keep your pretty eyes peeled for that if you're in the market for some super awesome rentals, and who isn't?

Much of the planning is only living in the head of me at the moment, but a grand opening will be announced soon, which is terribly exciting!

I hope you'll join me on this fun path we're bouncing down! Too many exclamation points!
