Sometimes, Girls just wanna have Fun ;)

My mother says, “When you gonna live your life right”

[- Cyndi Lauper, Girls just wanna have fun -]

Slowly I find my way more into the new “PBR Thing”. I have to admit it isn’t really easy if you are used to ther things for over 10 years – still I find a lot of errors and “bad habits” that system has – but I can see a basic idea kinda the more I try and error myself. Since we cannot role the time back anyway, what else you can do that try to adapt to new things *giggles*

Today I am doing something I was afraid of a long time. I am showcasing a skin as center for my post. Usually I am scared to use skins for blogging, as I do feel not right by showcasing skins with all my face mods (scars, freckles, veins, etc.). In the past I was criticized a lot for doing so – yes, I can understand why, but the more my avatar developed, the more I wanted to modify my face for a more unique look – and that kinda was the reason why I stopped showcasing skins. But lately I really started to like that incredible amazing skins from leLAPEAU. They have amazing details! The highlights and shadows are amazingly careful set and they do give the face a wonderful natural, not overdone glow even on low settings. The area around the eyes are wonderful and the lips do fit even on thinner lips like mine are. She as well does provide neckshaders/faders so you can be sure to not have that “line” where the face and body skin meet each other.

I do blog for LeLUTKA for a while now and I saw all those amazing skins and like I said, I never dared to use them. I took all my courage and contacted Aradia Dielli – creator of the awesome leLAPEAU skins – and asked her, how she would feel if I do use her skins still having all my face mods going on. I totally was surprised about her reaction and it and I was relieved as I never expected it like that. She was totally open to use her skins even with face mods going on and told me she does like it if bloggers can express them selves and be creative even with her skins. After that it did not even take me 3 minutes and I picked one of the skins I was eyeing for a while now and started experimenting. I changed a few accessories to not overload my face too much, since I wanted the skin in the focus, but I really do like the result… what do you think?

Bring us back to Life!

All of this time, I can’t believe I couldn’t see
Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me
I’ve been sleeping a thousand years, it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don’t let me die here
(There must be something more) bring me to life

[- Amy Lee, Evanescence -]
Ideas and inspiration for pictures… I get this asked a lot and often I have no idea what to answer. Many times I just unpack boxes of what I have bought and see what would maybe go together – that usually is a long process of try and error. When I am done styling, I try to find or build a scenery that in my opinion goes with that look.
The second way I come to an idea is a little more easy. I go out and take a look at some events and maybe I find something that kicks me and I do get a instant idea of what I would like to do with it.
The third possibility is I saw a picture in real life, or I heard a song where the lyrics did inspire me and I try to make my own version or my own vision of it.
Or… it is somehow a combination of some or all of those *giggles*
Most of the time I just go with the flow, let it happen and if I like the result it gets posted – yes, I do trash ready pictures if I do not like them and start over, even if I did work hours or days on them 😉
I do not know if it really is blogging like I used to do it in the past. In my personal view blogging is showcasing and maybe even review the items to give the reader a picture of what they get when they buy it. That was what I was taught when I started blogging. Over the time, that changed for me as I wanted more and more my own twist and visions in the pictures I do. Not only a blunt showcase of the item in the perfect day light, but my emotions, my feelings and.. maybe even myself somehow.
I was struggling for a while if I do still want to call myself “blogger” or if I should call myself just “digital artist”
Seeing how blogging changed in general and seeing how much more freedom bloggers do get, I decided to combine both and just have fun with it – as long as my sponsors do allow me 🙂
Today it was a combination of ideas.
First I saw the amazing Horns from Nefekalum at The Warehouse Sale and did know I do want to do something with them. They are so extraordinary in shape, textures and colors – just a must have! While was walking through the event I did see the new Hair from no.match – which I was allowed to be on the advertisement (thank you no.match and sis) – and with the shaved sides, they perfectly went with the horns!
I do not get that lucky all the time to find a whole style at one event usually but this time, it seemed to be fortune, as I found the outfit from Rokins and the cool makeup from [Reverie] at the same event, too!!!
After I put everything together, certainly with nails from FORMANAILS – my most favorite nail designer ♥ – I loved what I saw, but had no idea of what I could do with it *chuckles*
If I do not have the blink of an idea what to do, I usually jump first into my animals folder and see if I find something that calls to be rezzed out. This time it were the smelly raven friends from {vespertine} I got a while ago (sometimes things need to sit unused in my inventory until they are ready to go *giggles*). Seeing those the cool “Messenger Crow” animesh made – by [Apika] – came to my mind again. Why not doing something like “Bring the ravens back to live” like the “Messenger Crow”?
Where else than at a dark cemetery with a Gothic looking fence around midnight, dark magic could be done better?
Said – Done!
And here it is 😉

On cold wings, she’s coming
You better keep moving
For warmth, you’ll be longing, nightingale
Come on, just feel it
Don’t you see it?
You better believe
When she embraces your heart turns to stone
She comes at night when you are all alone
And when she whispers your blood shall run cold
You better hide before she finds you
Whenever she is raging
She takes all life away
Haven’t you seen?
Haven’t you seen?
The ruins of our world
[- Within Temptation -]

I had the great pleasure to be invited to be part of an exhibition. I was totally surprised when Randy wrote me a message on Flickr and asked me if I would like to exhibit at his amazing, sweet gallery called The 22 Art Space in Bellisseria on the Grenouille sim. The Exhibition is called Electric Sheep. This is one of 3 new pictures I created, which are showed there together with some of my already released ones Randy and Ricco chose from my Flickr. There are 2 amazing other artists showcasing their incredible work. You can read the details HERE and if you would like to take a look yourself – and I would suggest that, as the place really looks amazing – just take the DIRECT TP.
