“You want change with no sacrifice. You want peace with no struggle. The world doesn’t work like that.”

[- David, Allegiant, 2016 -]

Germany seems to be weird sometimes, especially our government. Now that we have our Covid numbers going down constantly, even with the new virus variations… they can’t wait until the numbers are as low as the experts ask for – no we have to break open schools and kindergartens as fast as we can. I mea i see the problems, do not get me wrong, but what does it help if we are back to sky high numbers in the next 3 weeks and then have to lock down everything again?!? Can we not just wait like 2 weeks more until the numbers are low enough before we plan things like that? Especially as it was clear, that the numbers dropped really fast when the schools finally were closed again? Would it not make sense to put some effort into the internet and into getting the needed hardware to the kids who are not having any still? The online platform for Bavarian schools (Mebis) looks and acts like they would have been made in the Stone Age some when and instead of working on it it feels like they counted on the fact that the summer will kill the virus and it is gone after that. They had oe year now to fix things and besides the fact they allowed Microsoft Teams, nothing really has changed – and that wasn’t the work of our government *facepalms* It seems more important to hold on exams and schedules instead of taking care of our kids and their health. We all know now, that the kids do not get symptoms but they can carry the virus around secretly and infect all their family. I just don’t understand all those rules and requirements anymore. WE can have the kids in school, shoulder on shoulder, but we cannot have theaters and cinemas open who definitely have way better hygiene management for infection control, than any school has – at our school we do not even have warm water for the kids to wash their hands as requested. But sure, lets open the schools again for 3 or 4 weeks to again close down the whole country as the new virus variations push the numbers up again – If they keep acting like that and with the not working vaccine concept (we simply do not have enough yet and some do not have a 100% protection – not to mention there is not even one yet for kids under 16 years, which is allowed officially) we will go back and forth until summer 2022 🙁

Anyways, lets take a look on todays pictures and designs 😉

Again I am in a cyberpunk mood – no wonder we just had the Mainframe event! I am super sorry for posting this so late but lately my RL is completely upside down. My mom got a new knee, and I still have to take care of her, cook, clean and walk her dog at least 2 times a day while I try to shuffle my work around as much as I can. Sometimes I am just dead in the evening when I am done with all my day work and I instantly fall asleep on the couch even if I made me some coffee to stay awake for some SL work.

But I still love making pictures and I try my best to not come too much behind with my blogging schedule 😉

Like I said sadly the Mainframe event is already over, but many of the releases I am wearing were made for that and now should have found their ways to the designers main stores I suppose.

“Loving the monsters always ends badly for the humans. It’s a rule.”

Made for Eclipse Magazine // January 2021 // https://issuu.com/eclipsemagazinesl/docs/eclipse_magazine_january_2021

“Loving the monsters always ends badly for the humans. It’s a rule.”

[- Laurell K. Hamilton -]

For the current issue of the Eclipse Magazine, again I was allowed to showcase a role play genre. My choice this time was Vampires. I wanted to cover the more traditional and vintage side of it as well as the modern one.

For the more traditional, Victorian one I had the great pleasure, to get some company from Vivien Delancoure. It is always fun to do picture with friends, but usually I just do not dare to ask, as sometimes I take ages until I have my final pose, shot and background. I hate to waste others peoples time. With Vivien it was different. She is a blogger as well, making wonderful pictures and creates most of her poses by herself – Just take a look at her Flickr HERE. So she knows how long it can take and that made me brave enough to ask her, if she would like to join me for a picture. Her style is usually goth-romantic or dark romantic, which already was perfect for what I was going for. She was so sweet and patient and made the whole shoot to a lot of fun combined with a lovely chitchat 😉 I have a feeling, that this will be not our last shoot together as it really was awesome to work with her.

Thank you Vivien, for your time, patience and a new growing friendship I do not want to miss again 😉

My style you can find – like usual – below this post. For Vivien’s look, just take a look at her blog HERE.

Voices in my Head

TUNES

They come creeping when it’s dark
(I see them)
Picking all my thoughts apart
(Once again)
So how am I supposed to sleep
When all I hear are the whispers in my ear?
Please turn down the voices in my head
Going on and on again
With that same old song and dance
Please turn down the noise inside my head
‘Cause I’m tryna go to bed
[- Skinny Days -]
It was time for some new freaky pictures with all the cool new releases from CerberusXing and L’Emporio&PL these days :p
Maybe it is the craziness of these days in the real world, or it is the Christmas time which I am not so much into it, or it is just the general fun I do have with dark posts and pictures… but I really had fun doing those.
The inspiration to this post gave me the “Kick It” finger bandages from L’Emporio&PL. They look so detailed and move so perfectly with your bento animations. I love that you can have a clean and a bloody version. As well I owed you a peek on those cool toe claws, which are included in the “Damned Claws” set as well made by L’Emporio&PL (you can find them on the last picture of this post).
The super cool earrings that I decided to put on my Kanji Ears from Eclipse Art Studio are made by L’Emporio&PL for the Man Cave Event this month. You get a wide range of 6 different designed earrings for each ear, plus a HUD where you can change the metal color between 6 different ones. Furthermore you can turn on and off the full bright mode, choose the glow intensity and resize your earrings with the HUD.
Today I read, that they found a mutation of the Covid virus in England and it already spread to other countries as well. I mean we all did know it was only about time before the first mutations would come, but it still was like a little shock. Even if the government tries to calm down the people by saying the vaccine still will work even for the mutation, who knows what the next step will be. I just hop you all are able to stay safe and healthy and survive this crazy year, ane even if the virus will reach with its long arm into 2021, I still hope we can stop the raising numbers and make them go down again.
Happy and hopefully safe Holidays!

“I’m gonna make you a Psycho”

TUNES

Love, it will get you nowhere
You are on your own
Lost in the wild
So come to me now
I could use someone like you
Someone who’ll kill on my command
And asks no questions

I’m gonna make you
I’m gonna break you
I’m gonna make you
A fucking psycho
Your ass belongs to me now

“Space Cowboy”

TUNES

This is the return of the space cowboy
Interplanetary, good vibe zone
Say, at the speed of cheeba, you and I go deeper
Maybe I’m gonna have to get high just to get by
Now, you know I got that
I got that cheeba, cheeba kinda space cowboy vibe

[Jamiroquai]

The basic design for todays pictures was the amazing face tattoo from .:E.A.Studio:. called “TaTToo Corvus Make-Up”. It is one of the recent releases at their main store. I loved how the wings hugged the undereyeline. You get the choice between black and white and as well 2 different opacities for each – 40% and 60%. All of them are BoM layers and so they will work wit every head that supports BoM. For my LeLUTKA heads it works just perfectly. *winks*. The layers are modifiable, so you even could turn the white one into every color you like. The head I am using today, is the new boundless update for Erin.For the outfit I chose the amazing “Rocket Captain” from {PSYCHO:Byts}. I love the details on the body as well as on the hat. You get different colored for the body and the metals of the whole outfit. I really had fun decorating my set as soon as the idea of a military space mechanic came to my mind. The “Wreck Hideout” from 22769 was perfect for that scenery! First I thought about a motorbike for my mechanic, but then I found that amazing, futuristic space bike from STUN in my inventory, which even came with those cool poses!
