Hitchhiking…

My favorite part of the year is just about to start with one of my personal favorite events – The engine Room done by Second Life Syndicate!

An event entirely event about steampunk, dieselpunk and all those amazing technical based designs with mostly a Victorian touch somehow – just completely down my personal alley 😉

Today I am coming with a maybe very modern technical style, because the amazing “Technolady Boots” from A&Y are one of the releases for the Engine Room. To show you that you as well can use them for a more modern futuristic look as well and because I am an A&Y freak addicted anyway, I styled it with some of her latest releases as well. As usual the boots come with her amazing HUD that lets you customize so many different parts that let you match it to all kind of looks and styles.

The hair I am using is the first EvoX hairbase coming from no.match and guess what.. it is a gift! Coming in 4 different colors it is a really generous gift with all those new EvoX hairbases 🙂

Speaking of all those amazing designs I do not want to forget that incredible tattoo which I am wearing – certainly from my favorite tattoo maker – comes from Vegas Tattoo. For the Cyber Fair they released a new tattoo with an amazing futuristic look as well coming for EvoX! I am so in love with those tattoos, that come up the neck until the chin that this one for me is a definite must have.

For now I will just go back to my platform to make more pictures of all those amazing new releases of the Engine Room. While Liam doing that, you could just opo over to the event and see by yourself what amazing releases are waiting there for you 😉

What’s Next?

Today I do have a very special post – special to me, as I had an amazing girl with me. Abyss Artful. I adore her creativity, ideas and skills for quite some time.

Recently we started talking and we came across the idea we should make a picture together. You know how that is if both of the people that would like to do something together are busy and work a lot. Exactly that happened to Abyss and me for month. We always wanted to make a picture together and it just didn’t happen.

So this time we said we do want to make a cyber/cyberpunk picture and with the upcoming/now open Cyberfair we thought, this could be a great occasion to really come together and finally do this.

Since we do not know each other for that long yet, we both were excited and I was nervous as well. How it would go, how long it would take, would it work just the first time we try?

We are both perfectionists, we both wanted to shoot one version of the picture and from talks we had before we both did know from each other, that it could take us hours to have the perfect shot or pose or setup. So we said, we just meet and fool around a bit on one evening and then, when we re certain what we want to do, we meet the next day to shoot. Neither me or her are too familiar with couple poses, since we shoot all on our own a lot, so we thought about finding 2 poses that cooperate and make a cool scene. It was scary, how fast it did click and everything fell together so easy… really scary but as well awesome – hard to describe for me *giggles*

We had so much fun and soon we realized, how much we both are interested in having an “interaction” between the avatars, to have an interesting picture in the end. The more we fooled around, the more the concept came to live and I am still blown alway by the end result 🙂 It was so much fun, I really hope we will find a time and an idea again to work together for another picture.

To see Abyss version just clickHEREwhere you as well can find all her incredible, awesome work on her stream, too!

Thank you so much Abyss for an awesome evening and the fun we had!!!

Demons of the Past

TUNES

A broken frame shattered glass, a distant scream from a haunted past
Broken dreams remind you of what you could have been
A perfect plan a perfect life, a perfect way to paradise
Divine thirst turned into something so bitter sweet
A shining star that fades away, a broken promise a wicked day
Seems that nothing can repair the damage done
Beaten down and torn apart, what you need is a brand new start
you don’t gain anything for being sad
So bury it down, don’t knead it, so bury it down you don’t need it
Just let it go, cause you cannot turn back time
You never want to feel this again, don’t want to pretend
Cause you can’t and you won’t relive it

I’m sure that if you cut of your past, the demons won’t last
Cause you can’t and you won’t relive it

More than Words

TUNES

Now that I’ve tried to
Talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands

And touch me
Hold me close don’t ever let me go

More than words
Is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn’t have to say
That you love me
‘Cause I’d already know

Captivating…

Sometimes it is just a Discord call and you got a new sponsor for your blogging *giggles* It wasn’t planned in any way… it just happened. I did follow the releases or Rubedo for quite a while, since my friend Chey  told me she got a custom make up for one of her contests made by Foxy Ruby, owner and designer behind Rubedo.  Today when we talked I teased her with the question if she thinks, that I would qualify for being a Rubedo blogger when we again talked about the brand again – 5 minutes later I was a Rubedo blogger *giggles* I am always a bit nervous when it comes to makeup, as I do not have too  many good experiences with blogging makeup, since I am not the typical beauty, closeup, clean blogger. But Chey is the blogger manager and she knows my work so… lets give it a try!

I do like creative, unusual makeups and eyeshadows, they do give a face character and you can do so much with a certain color and style. When I tried the “Titania” eyeshadow,I instantly had the vision of one of those popular tattoo models in RL. I do not remember her name, but she does wear colorful and bold makeup when she does TV shows, events and interviews. I do like the dark casual, urban, Goth looks a lot anyway and so it wasn’t too hard to come up with a matching look 😉

To match the “Titania” eyeshadow from Rubedo, I used one of the lipsticks I recently got at Top1Salon. So the green was set already, as I liked that combo of black and green (certainly the eyeshadow comes in 13 more colors so you can find the one you need for your look) and I came across my usual problem – one shade of green now I need to find fingernails with the perfect matching shade of green – that can end up in a headache! But not of you have the awesome “My Nails” from L’Emporio! You can hide the text in the nails and with their amazing HUD you can have preset colors PLUS you can edit them with a colorfield.

Vegas now does tattoos that work with the LeLUTKA EvoX heads. At Uber they do have one of their newest releases called “Siren” and it perfectly matched the look which I was going for. The incredible amazing necklace was made by AsteroidBox while the cool rings are from Eclipse Art Studio. Now who made that super cool glasses? Certainly CerberusXing! Those glasses are available in gold and silver and you get a HUD to texture the lenses in 8 different colors and as well each of them separately.

I am super excited what else the Rubedo makeup will challenge me to develop – I am looking forward to it 😉

Thank you Chey and Foxy for the opportunity ♥
