“I’m gonna wait ’til the midnight hour…”

TUNES

I’m gonna wait ’til the midnight hour
That’s when my love come tumbling down
I’m gonna wait ’til the midnight hour
When there’s no one else around
I’m gonna take you, girl, and hold you
And do all things I told you, in the midnight hour

Wasteland Summer…

TUNES

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin’ dirt and gritty
Been down, isn’t it a pity?
Doesn’t seem to be a shadow in the city
All around people looking half-dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

Picture by me – .:Tribal Tuesday:. – “My Heaven” (Bento)

And again another premiere and it was so much fun that I am sure we will do that again…

Vivien and me both had to blog a poses form different pose makers and thought we could make a little series out of it. So since her picture was the first she took the first part of the evening and me, with the second picture, the second part a little later at night 😉

We are both CerberusXing addicts and so most of our clothing certainly comes from there for this picture. Vivien was so generous to offer her bedroom for the shootings, so if you want to know more about the single items or her look as well – just ask her if you dare 😉

I more and more enjoy doing pictures with a friend and with Vivien it is so… easy. We think a like a lot, we have a close sense of style, our skins cooperate just amazing and since we are both making poses it is as well easy to arrange pose balls and do minor adjustments if needed. Sometimes we just sit hours and think about what we could and sometimes it is done in a blink, if one of us had an idea already. I do enjoy both sides of it and it does help my own creativity a lot, if we just talk about picture concepts and ideas. We never did a 2 part series before but even that was so much fun, that I hope we can do that again!

Crumble from Reality

TUNES

Twilight falls on withering flesh
Muffled sighs one final breath
Darkness creeps in to make her claim
Now flows the demon in your veins
She lets the world fall from me
Crumble from reality
There she walks with feet unmoving

Having a Break

LeLUTKA did it! They already have released 2 waves of their updated Evolution line heads. The new 3.1 version was released already for Lilly, Ryn, Fleur, Nuri, Lake, Nova and Erin – which I chose for today’s post. Before Avalon came out, Erin was my everyday favorite head and you can imagine how excited I was when I saw Erin got the update – I certainly had to try that one out first! I promise I will showcase them one after another step by step 😉

So what is new to the 3.1 updates… lemme quote LeLUTKA’s press release:

HUD:

– Evolution Classic heads have now been updated to 3.1.

– You can now find EVO and EVO X toggle buttons across all heads.

– Option to blend or mask lashes have now been updated.

– Save slots have been removed for Eye Socket, Lashes, HD Brows, HD Eyelids, and HD Lips as we now have a Style HUD.

– We now have a total of 18 eyes, an additional 6 have been added.

– We now have a total of 6 eyebrows, an additional 2 have been added.

– We now have a total of 8 eye shadows, an additional 2 have been added.

– Alpha Mode has been added to the lip area, when you use the Mask option, you will be able to manipulate how much of your lipstick with show.

– Layer Materials (None) HD Complex has been added under settings, includes HD Brows, 2 HD eye shadow layers, Lashes, Eye Sockets and HD lips

– Clicking these buttons will remove materials from matching layers, removing materials will eliminate Hair/Head alpha interaction (if hair has materials enabled), leaving your Head layers, alpha clipping free. This means the glossiness of any of these layers will be removed.

Scripts:

– Scripts have been polished to reduce lag and make the HUD and heads operate smoother and respond faster.

There will be updates for all the Evolution Line heads – female and male. They as well will release a new male EvoX head soon and all the male Evolution heads will get a pretty polished update then too 🙂

Just stay tuned, I will inform you as soon as there are new updates and releases asap 😉

“All we’ve ever known.”

“A haze of neon illuminates the network of streets far below, and the sound of the traffic is quieter this high up. Even so, I can just make out the fine-tuned engines of several ModBikes in the distance –electrons circling Descada’s corrupted nucleus.
It’s an impressive view for a dorm, one of the best I’ve seen. It’s really no small wonder why most kids don’t discuss anything existing beyond the city. You could almost believe the buildings and lights here go on forever. This is our sanctuary. All we’ve ever known.”

Lazy Afternoon

As promised I come to you with another great gift at the SL18B – The “Beercorner” from DRD, with some great news from AsteroidBox and CerberusXing at Kustom 9 and the latest release from .:E.A.Studio:., which will come to the new round of Kinky at the 28th of June!

The Beercorner from DRD contains 2 different chairs, an awesome table and something to put on exactly that table *winks*. Believe it or not it is a free gift at the SL18B Shop & Hop from DRD!

The kick ass, cool top comes from AsteroidBox. “There are 16 color options available, with each purchase including 15 under shirt options, 13 strap options and 4 metal detail options. Fatpack includes all color options, with the option to change the main shirt and under shirt individually, allowing for mix and match styling. ” to quote the press release from AsteroidBox.

The cool earrings you will find at the upcoming round of Kinky, made by Eclipse Art Studio. The earrings are rigged for both versions of the LeLutka EvoX ears and can be worn as linked set, or left and right separate.

Last but not least, the cool pants are made by CerberusXing. They are not just pants… first of all they do have a great latex shine and second, they do have a gradient in their colors plus the lower legs get transparent the lighter they become! A real must have for my wardrobe and not the last time I will have used them for my pictures, especially since I saw there is a matching top at the Warehouse Sale for this round *grins*

Since I got asked so often lately… The direct SURLs are hidden under the colored credits, either under the designers names or the events that are listed behind 😉
