The welcoming entrance

On June 28, 2015 By AlexaIn Events, Home4 Comments

I don’t have the space for a proper foyer in my real life home as the front door opens right into the living room and just to the left of my entrance is a storage closet to hang coats and other items you want hidden. Though I’ve always loved the idea of an entry hallway that leads you into other rooms. In that entry way this Veronica foyer set by [ARIA] that consists of the console table that gives you a few choices on the wood, decorative mirror, plant and the round pouf that also comes with several choices in texture for the fabric would be the perfect thing to put there. You can find this set at the SOU by Creation.jp event, which is celebrating its first anniversary and will be open until July 25th. So you have plenty of time to grab this and other great finds at a discount.

The stalker

I’m doing another male post in my male series and as you can see I am easily amused. I usually don’t have any prearranged thoughts of what I will end up doing when I log in other than I mainly go in-world these days to put something together to blog. I know it sounds a bit boring. Though I can’t say I find myself bored. It’s about the right amount of stimulation that I need to keep me busy and focused as I filter through what’s on my mind and I begin to relax leaving behind the day. It’s only when I’m restless beyond a certain point that I end up searching for something more to appease the mood.

Saying that I have begun to start to venture out a little more to take in some of the SL scenery. I’ve been seeing some great pictures of locations in-world on Flickr that I would love to go visit. The problem for me is that I’m starting to rez everywhere in a world of grey again, it makes the experience not so pleasant to want to do it again and again.

This night I began like usual by putting out recent purchases and moving them around and that’s how a scene starts to develop. With this particular scene I had placed out several of the cute beach huts in varying colors by Trompe Loeil, which are now at Collabor88. I know you can’t see the actual build, but worth checking out and a bargain at 88L. As I saw them side by side the idea hit of having a guy scoping out the girl with binoculars. Though as you can see things don’t always end the way you begin. The pose sort of set the tone on this one.

Happy Friday!

I was standing next to the dog on a stand going through poses when I came to this one and chuckled that it looked like I was scolding the dog and decided to shoot the picture like this. I mentioned yesterday that I had fixed my problem with shadows and if you look at the wall you can see the shadow of the window. That’s the result of using advanced lighting and a favorable wind light. I added a burst of light to come through the window with Pic Monkey and decided to go with a black and white for my final outcome.

Even though I don’t crash anymore, enabling the advanced lighting feature does seem to slow me down considerably. I’ll have to continue to play with it some more, though for now I like having the ability to use shadows.
