This was another lucky letter prize from the other day 🙂
The top, shorts, and belt are separates. They are all sized for Lara, Freya, Hourglass, and Legacy. There are two color versions of the top and shorts.
Scandalize is L$100 to join, but easily worth it for the number of past group gifts available.

Aloha kākou! This is one of those outfits/costumes/looks that sprang to mind almost instantly when I first saw the Damned tattoo set from Fallen Gods. I already had the beautiful Pure skin in the Abyssia colour scheme, a perfect beautiful blue. When the two came together, it was the most magical gold-detailed lapis… and lapis is one of my two favourite precious stones.
The rest came together in bits and pieces. A waist wrap from Meli Imako, a top from r2 A/D/E. A beautiful scarab necklace from Spyralle. And, of course, the beautiful sim at Terra Egypta provided the best setting I could imagine.
This is the second time I’ve tried shooting this skin/tattoo — the first time I was not happy with the results, a creative vision that was not quite right. I’ve changed the clothing, jewelry, all much for the better.
And for all that… I’m still not quite satisfied. I’ll have to play with this some more, but for the time being, I’m pretty pleased.
Through a disaster of record keeping, I managed to lose my pose and windlight information. I’m still hoping to find the list, and will edit this post if/when I do!
Aloha, my friends. I’ll be back more as soon as I can be!
Pictures were taken at the Terra Egypta Sim

Of course you don’t think that while I was in front of the Scandalize lucky letter boards yesterday I just stopped at just one, do you? 🙂
This outfit is another fab lucky letter board prize. The top and pants are separates. The top is sized for Lara, Lara Petite, Freya, Hourglass, and Legacy. It has a typical Scandalize HUD (that is, a huge number of choices) to let you change the bow’s look. There’s also a second version of the top, with vertical pin striping.
The pants are sized for Lara, Freya, Hourglass, and Legacy. They also have a HUD for the laces and metals, with colors and textures to match to top. And again, there’s a second version of the pants, this time with little white hearts.
The lucky letter boards at Scandalize are very generous, although to play, you must be in the group which is L$100 to join. There’s usually quite a lot of girls trying their luck, so the boards turn over fairly quickly, and you’re sure to get at least one of two prizes!
This is a lucky letter win from the boards at Scandalize. Scandalize is L$100 to join, but a single win off one of the boards (not to mention the vast collection of past group gifts) is totally worth it.
This outfit consists of the bikini top and bottom, with a matching coverup. All three pieces are sized to fit Lara, Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Legacy.
The bikini comes in this plain gray and a polkadot version, and the coverup also comes with a second version in a complimentary pattern.
The coverup is notable for the fades from sheer to opaque fabric in just the right places, and the bikini makes a bold statement with the frills and the front tie. A really nice prize for the little bit of time invested.
I found a nice group gift at S@BBiA today. Their group is FREE to join.
This wrap top and pleated skirt are separates. The package doesn’t mention a size, but they fit Lara well, and system alpha layers are included if you wish to wear it with BoM.
Every Hallowe’en, Ricielli and Dhoma have an in-store hunt. And you don’t have to worry about scary costumes or blood everywhere, just which nice pieces of lingerie you’ll pick up 🙂
This set is item #20 on the hunt, and each hunt item costs L$15. The bra, panties, and garter are all sized to fit Lara, Freya, and Legacy, and each piece has both alpha blend and mask versions. Please be careful when you’re buying, as different hunt items have different sizes. There’s a key available at the store showing you what’s what.
Time for the first serious Hallowe’en costume for the year 🙂
This is a complete outfit from ArisArisB&W. Included is the bodysuit, boots, horns, mask, tail, wings, and pitchfork, and it’s on special in-store for L$99!
The bodysuit is fitted for Lara, Legacy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Hourglass, Physique, and M.B. Classic and M.B. Legacy. The boots are specific fitmesh for nearly all the same sizes. The use of materials is excellent, with both bump and spec maps making the clothing really pop and reflect the red sky I’ve used for the lighting (under daylight, the outfit it basically black).
The wings and tail both have static and animated versions.
I also have to mention the hair. This is really a pose only hairstyle, and it’s meant to be spread out when you’re laying down on your back, but I thought it looked nice and wild for the devil 🙂 You can pick it up for FREE at the FaMESHedX event.
While I was at It’s Gau yesterday, I picked up this FREE gift for members of the Mesh Body Friends group too. MBF is FREE to join.
This is an older mesh, and sizes are limited to a one-size-fits-all fitmesh, plus the five standard mesh sizes for classic avatars. The lace is a very pretty touch, and the belt is a really nice added detail!
Here’s a cute gift for members of the teleporthub.com group. The group is L$10 to join, and gives you access to FREE gifts from creators all over the grid.
The top is fitted for Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Hourglass, Physique, plus four fitmesh standard sizes. The shorts are sized the same with the an additional size for TMP. The sandals are included and are sized for Slink Flat, Maitreya, Belleza, plus an unrigged version for classic avatars.
I’ve mentioned EEP fleetingly before. EEP, or the Environmental Enhancement Project, is available in Linden Lab’s Viewer, but is currently only available as a public beta in Firestorm, and is a replacement for the currently Windlight system. I’ve played around with it a little, but I’m waiting for an official version in Firestorm before I get serious with it (for example, defining a per-parcel day/night cycle).
However, while running it, I was at a friend’s place, and I was struck by how much better normals and lighting reflections look with EEP. Also, light falloff appears to be much more realistic. So I took a couple of photos. You can compare the two below. The only difference between these two photos was using the beta viewer with EEP, verses using the stable production viewer with Windlight. All camera settings, graphics card settings, resolution, and so on, remained the same. Oh, and I “froze” the fire so as not to be distracting 🙂
Take note of the reflections from the fire and the lamps on the floor and the wood to the left, and the more realistic falloff, particularly in the corners of the room. I’m looking forward to playing with this more when it’s officially merged into Firestorm.
