Fantasy Faire 2021: You haven’t a preyer

 


Aeon’s pose is Renny V from XPOSEure (Faire store in Peaville Goes Nuts)

I saw a girl, she reminded me of you
She did the things that a girl like you might do
Her body was green and she had two vicious jaws
She polished her mate as she kissed him with her claws

SOMETIMES you just find things that make you giggle so much that you can’t help it. I came across these amazing Bento Mantis Limbs from the amazing Idrial at -FAS-. My first thought was “OMG that’s hilarious but also EWW”… and then I thought about it a bit more. Hey, what if….


Aeon’s pose is Freyja 1 (M) from Astalianda (Faire store in Valhalla)

What if I paired those with the amazing Mantis Mask from Spyralle? I’d been wanting to find something to do with that ever since Kerryth brought it out? Now, as a quick note — Mantis Mask isn’t available at the Faire, you’ll have to visit Kerryth’s main store to pick that up, but do please visit her Faire store for other goodies!


Aeon’s pose is Katti 2 (M) from Astalianda (Faire store in Valhalla)

And put those together with the Pure Emerald skin from Fallen Gods? NOW you’ve got me sold. Finish it off with elements of the Bellatrix bodysuit from Aii.

I was giggling so much by the time I was done… well. Hopefully you’re as amused as I am. You really should stop in and check out these legs.. they have wonderful animations with them, and are completely creepy crawly wonderful.


Aeon’s pose is Fairy 3 from AZKPose (Fair Store in Yin Yang)

I’m still busy soaking up every minute of this wonderful Fantasy Faire. I hope that you are too! Aloha! A hui hou kākou!
I’ll see you around the Faire!

In the shadow of Karnak

She walks with the footsteps of a goddess.

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!

a path is for straying

A path… is like lines on a colouring page. To some, it may represent the way to a destination… to others, it simply marks the boundary between the known… and what is waiting to be discovered.


Aeon’s pose is Winter Spirit 02 from *Eternal Dream*

Aloha kākou my wonderful friends! It’s been a very busy few weeks, but I finally have some new pics to share with you. But first some good news — the wonderful Kerryth at Spyralle is recuperating after surgery according to a note sent out last week to her group. I finally get around to showing one of her latest creations, the Living Stepping Stones.


Aeon’s pose is Furimuki #2 (mirror) from Snow White and the Seven Kitties

The stones come in six different palettes to suit your building needs, and each colour has one-stone, two-stone, and three-stone settings. They’re resizeable and copyable, and 1 LI each in the default size (mine here are downsized about 20%) so you can create the perfect path in the woods without breaking your parcel limit! I laid these out at my friend Gidgy’s lovely sim. While you won’t find the stones still there, you should certainly find yourself there… and you will surely find a little piece of serenity to fill you.


Aeon’s pose is Loveliness #1 from K&S poses

I hope that your day is as beautiful as you are! Keep shining brightly my friends! A hui hou kākou!

A Masque for Life

 

A mask protects, a mask hides… and a masque tantalises….


Aeon’s pose is Winter Spirit 02 from *Eternal Dream*

Aloha kākou!

I have a wonderful little couple of things to share with you today, a beautiful mask from Kerryth at Spyralle and a beautiful new updo from Magika.

The Masque of Summer is a wonderful mask, perfect for a midsummer’s… masque — for the ball, beautiful gowns swaying under the stars as the orchestra plays. Kerryth’s Masque of Summer is unrigged mesh: it can be resized and positioned for your face, and comes in six different lovely patterns. Each one has a HUD for choosing gem and metal colour to tailor it to your look. You can find it at We Love Role Play this month for another few days!


Aeon’s pose is Summer Breeze 5 (rev) from Stardust

I also get to share this quick pick-up — the Midnight updo from Magika. Magika is coming out with some new hairstyles with some very life-like texturing. I really love this one. I don’t have really close-up shots of it to share: Firestorm on a linux system has a known but that causes some triangular rendering errors in some meshes with alphas. I’ve got it on great authority (my assistant today who held the lights for me) that the triangles that I could see were completely invisible to her on her windows machine. It looks really wonderful, and I’m really excited for new styles from Magika soon!


Aeon’s pose is The Mirror Pose from Shi.S Poses

One last note, my wonderful friends. My friend, the beautiful and talented Kerryth, owner and creative force of Spyralle announced to her group that she is facing some rather serious health issues. Please keep her in your thoughts, your prayers if you have them. She has not shared prognosis, but keep her and her loved ones in your thoughts.

Mahalo nui kākou! A hui hou!

Dark skies… and new beginnings

The darkest fiercest storm will break over us like an angry cry, but we will weather the storm and breathe deep the scent of the passing rain… welcoming a world bathed in peace and light and song

Welina mai kākou! Hau’oli Pō’alua!

Kerryth at Spyralle had brought us the beautiful Song of the Sun and Song of the Moon totems for the 2020 Fantasy Faire back in May, and introduces us to two more members of the family, the Song of the Storm and the Song of the Rainbow for SL17B, the birthday celebration for SL’s 17th year!

I really love both of the Songs, but I had to add just a little bit to the Song of the Storm. Fortunately, Kerryth has just the thing — the Daemon Light was inspired by a passage from Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, and is a rigged mesh piece meant to be worn.  When rezzed and positioned on Storm,  it makes the lightning detail on the totem come alive.  Daemon Light is animated so that it flickers, so it’s a perfect dynamic touch to add to Song of the Storm on your sim!

As you know, I tend to really love shooting on-site, but it’s a different game when you’re not working with any live subject. It’s fun to think about the scene as the subject of the shot… and to find the story.

Stop by SL17B and take a look at Spyralle’s booth. Whether you’re looking for something unique to wear or the right touches for your home, you might just find more than you were looking for.

Keep a song in your heart and in your home! A hui hou kākou!

Waters of life

Water is life, water is rebirth, water is creation, and water is destruction. Is it any wonder that water features so prominently in our rituals, in our dreams?


Aeon’s pose is Flight 14 from Poseidon Poses

Welina mai kākou! Hau’oli Pō’akolu!

Flitting through a dark forest, a forgotten ruin that nature is reclaiming… and a shining basin held by the very branches themselves, a shower of sparkling stars falling like wishes from the rim.


Aeon’s pose is Flight 14 from Poseidon Poses

Spyralle has introduced the beautiful Litha Water Offering pedestal basin at the June edition of We Love Role Play, and tardy Aeon FINALLY gets to share some pics I took with it. I decided to visit it with my petite fae, it felt the perfect complement to the mystical foresty nature that Litha embodies.


Aeon’s pose is Natsumi 1 from ZIPI Poses

Kerryth has incorporated a few nice tricks in the bowl. You can turn the falling stars on or off, and there are two different versions, one featuring the coloured stars shown here, the other featuring white stars — for whichever is most appropriate for your use!


Aeon’s pose is Model Pose Twenty Five, created by Michael Firefly

However you might incorporate it into your parcel or sim, Litha is a wonderful treasure! The June edition of We Love Role Play is over very shortly, but Litha is already available at the Spyralle main store at Mauna Waipio. Stop by and take a look!

A hui hou kākou!

Curiosities

A little gallery of treasures… works of art, collected pieces from travels…. mysterious curious that must be more than they seem. The trinkets we treasure are the smallest reminders of epic stories.


*PosESioN* — Women Hunt #4 pose

Welina mai kākou! Hau’oli Pō’akahi!

Something a little different and a lot fun, I hope! Kerryth at Spyralle is offering the Victorian Museum Cabinet as a special at the Vintage Fair, open now!


Aeon’s pose is Kimono F7 from Happy Dispatch Animation

The Cabinet is build in beautiful mahogany, and features a “removable” glass shelf. Detailing is exquisite, from the cabinet hinges to the shelf cleats! This is perfect for those little treasures that we accumulate and don’t know what to do with. How many of my little treasures do you recognise? The beautiful Raven mask on the upper shelf centre was Kerryth’s offering for the 2020 Fantasy Faire, and is still on sale at the Spyralle main store at Mauna Waipio. All proceeds for the mask go to the American Cancer Society’s fight to cure cancer! It’s a wonderful piece, and can be worn in a closed position as a mask or displayed opened (as you see here).


TuTy’s Mocap Animations — Blowup! 25 pose

The case represents a tilt-open case, where the front glass panel would swing upward. The case itself is non-operable, but you can carefully remove the glass shelf to display taller artifacts. This requires just a little bit of editing/modding experience, and Kerryth explains how in a nc included with the piece.

Stop by The Vintage Fair and take a look. It’s an amazing piece at 2 LI — I really am impressed with the glass in the case, it has just the right colour and reflectivity. I think I may have left fingerprints!

A hui hou kākou!

Fantasy Faire 2020: The Song of the Moon

A dark pass under a glittering sky, a totem to the heavens raised in wonder at the beauty above.

Welina mai kākou! Hau‘oli Pō’ahā! Aloha my friends, Happy Thursday!

The 2020 Fantasy Faire may be drawing to its conclusion this coming Sunday, but there is still time left to wander, to explore, to buy, and to support the fight against cancer.

I wanted to share the other lovely treasure from Spyralle with you… this is The Song of the Moon, the companion piece to the The Song of the Sun that I shared with you a couple days ago. It’s dark and bright and fills me with hope.

Can’t explain that, and I won’t try. But it’s a beautiful piece for your sim, a little sparkle of starlight, of moonlight in an unexpected hollow, perhaps.

There is so much magic at the faire. The people, the common mission, it really is one of my favourite times of the year, and my favourite event in all of SL. I hope that you’ve had the chance to stop by and take a look!

I wish you peace and joy and love! Aloha! A hui hou kākou!

Fantasy Faire 2020: A Song of the Sun


Aeon’s pose is I Stand for Peace from Luanes World

With dawn comes the Sun, comes light, comes hope. Sing of the light, of hope for a brighter day.

Welina mai kākou! Hau‘oli Pō’alua! Aloha my friends, Happy Tuesday!

Fantasy Faire is into its final week, but there are still wonderful treasures to find before it closes on Sunday, May 10.

I have some lovely treasures to share with you. My beautiful little skirt and top combo is The Bard Queen from MALified. This one is available as one of the Faire Quest gifts!

Behind me is a fun totem for your sim or parcel — The Song of the Sun from Spyralle. It’s part of a two-piece set: you’ll see The Song of the Moon in a few days.


Aeon’s pose is Let the Light Guide You from Luanes World

Fantasy Faire 2020: The Fiercest Storms

The fiercest storms may blow us off course… they may wreck our plans and break the keel, but hold on to the lines, and keep your course true.


Aeon’s pose is Loveliness #3 from K&S poses

Welina mai kākou! Hau‘oli Pō’aono! Aloha my friends, Happy Saturday!

There are all kinds of things to find at Fantasy Faire 2020! The beautiful Isle of Shadows is an amazing pirate and mer sim that you have to stop by and sea! (wink wink nudge nudge)


Aeon’s pose is Look Up! #1 from [Kikay] Poses

Belle Epoque brings you Anne, a wonderful piratey-themed outfit available in Maitreya and Legacy fitmesh. It’s a one-piece top/skirt/corset piece, with incorporated belt and pistol. The detail is really amazing!

The fiercest dragons may become the fiercest friends.


Aeon’s pose is Priestess 3 from Poseidon Poses

Hope comes from unexpected corners. It’s up to us to be the hope for others! Create hope by coming and shopping at the Faire, and take home little bits of magic for yourself.
