I’ve spent too many hours tinkering with GIMP, trying to find images in Picasa, fooling with the Second Life editor trying to find stuff in my inventory, and struggling to remember all the nifty ideas I had for products… on the other hand, I DID get one new product listed today, and I’ll have another couple ready to go in the next few days.
Wow, it was a tough hurdle, but I eventually cleared it. Meanwhile, still working on a better method for organizing inventory.
Anyway, here is “The Man In The Kyomoon Lamp.” It’s technically a lamp, but it’s really more of an artistic experiment.
It’s a lamp, but one I’ve been tinkering with off and on for a while. The base texture is based on a light show that happens at JaNa Kyomoon’s weekly “Goodbye Weekend” concerts. The Resident who does the shows flies in the middle and does the particle effects, which are fun to photograph. When I looked more closely, I saw that I’d captured his image, and the moon, in the texture.
It’s a bit gaudy, but it’s Victoriana, what the hey.
I also bought a bunch of Dover clip art again… here we go! Will be making some nice hats soon, have 3 almost ready to put out – and have some new Mardi Gras beads to finish that will go with one of the new hats.
