What’s happening in Second Life?

Project BabyMetal at Eden

blue Events

Natsuki, one of our lovely sisters of Eden, recommended that we look at a live act with the possibility of getting them to play at Eden, and after a bit of organization, it all happened yesterday!

Project BabyMetal at Eden!  Woohoo!

The band plays music by the real BabyMetal, and have the costumes, looks, staging, and dances down perfectly!  Plus, the light show is mind-blowing!  You should definitely try and see their show if you’ve not seen them before.

And while the above photo doesn’t exactly show it, we had a huge crowd for an event in SL, with nearly 60 people attending, which is pretty amazing for anything that’s not a major fashion event.  What a fantastic show!

Here’s part of the video they took yesterday!

As you’re undoubtedly aware, I’m a big fan of Silvan Moon Designs, and have the wonderful privilege to blog for them.  Solas and Bee do amazing work, and often feature a whole lot of beautiful medieval- and fantasy-themed gowns.

I think as a result I get very excited when Silvan Moon brings out an outfit that’s not a gown — it’s sure to be something special.

  • Silvan Moon Designs — Silverlight Elven Tunic for We Love Role Play (8 colour choices, Nightowl shown) (Maitreya/SLink fitmesh)
  • *LightStar — Celtic Trinity Knot (Silver & Gold) circlet and earrings
  • Bootgasm — Vail Winter Boot black
  • an lar [poses] — The Bella Series – Four (m) pose

The filigree belt is just wonderful — it’s mesh, not just textured onto the tunic, although it’s a single piece with the tunic.  The cape is a separate piece, and the breeches are appliers.

Happy Monday, everyone!  Mahalo!  A hui hou kākou!

Last day of the Con!

blue Events

Wow, I’ve had a great time at the Science Fiction Convention!  I’ve met and talked to some really interesting people, and had the pleasure of demonstrating the new BF Carbon Truss Telescope to some of them, while sharing my enthusiasm for astronomy too.

I’ve also managed to raise a little bit of money for Relay For Life with the generous purchase of the scope by a number of people.  As I write this, the Con has raised over L$1.1 million for RFL!  That’s a fantastic result, and we still have today to push it higher!

A big thank you to Merky (rickmerk), Beth Delaunay (isilmeriel), Starwolff (starwolff2000), and Benjamin Brougham for the sim builds, and all the other organizers, event managers, exhibitors, and helpers that made such a wonderful event possible.  This was my first time as an exhibitor at a major event, but it certainly won’t be my last!

I hope you’ve had time to visit, and if not, this is your last chance as the Convention closes today!  So, run and have a look before it’s all gone for another year!

I’ll leave you with this photo on the bridge of a starship.  Of course, Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom soup is standard fare between the stars 😉

TP to the Con!

 

Gypsy enchantments

Aeon Events, LotD

I got to wander around the latest round of Enchantment: The Iron Throne over the past weekend, and while the theme is Game of Thrones, I found the most wonderful separates that just cried out “boho/gypsy chic” to me.  A little mix-and-match and you’ve got a look that is perfect for role play… or for every day.  Well, every day for me, anyway!

I don’t know about you, but I find that working with separates can definitely be more challenging — I tend to forget what separates I have in my wardrobe, and finding pieces that go together can be very hit-or-miss.  But it’s very exciting when it does, and creates a look that is very unique to the individual.

Mahalo!  A hui hou kākou!

The telescope in action

If you haven’t visited the SL Sci Fi Con 2019 yet, you are missing out!  There is some absolutely wonderful creations to see, not the least is the landscaping done by the build team!

There’s a hunt, a puzzle involving purple C3PO statues around the event (yes, purple!), live DJs, and more!

Don’t forget to donate what you can to Relay For Life when you visit, it’s a truly worthy cause!  (You can donate by voting for the Blue’s Fantasy booth hehe)

BF Carbon Truss Telescope debuts at the SL Sci Fi Con!

blue Events, Products

Blue’s Fantasy is very excited to finally debut version 1.0 of the Blue’s Fantasy Carbon Truss Telescope at this year’s Sci Fi Convention!

This telescope, similar to the BF Newtonian Telescope, allows you to view the entire Sloan Digital Sky Survey footprint wholly within Second Life.  You can view (and load) textures in the system for slideshow viewing as well.

Unlike the previous telescope, this scope is equipped with a CCD camera and so comes with a computer system (including monitor, keyboard, mouse, and PC).  You also get the desk and chair to place the system, and sitting at the desk activates the telescope.

But the most impressive thing about this system is that the telescope moves on its mount to realistically point at the part of the sky that you’re viewing!

Drop by the Sci Fi Con and check us out!  30% of all purchases of the telescope via the vendor at the Con will be donated to Relay For Life!
