Xeriko's Attic: A mixed virtuality - Xeriko's Attic

OMFG! OMFG!

Yes, it usually means that. Sometimes, it means OMFG and nothing else.  That's the name of a line of products --a store-- targeted at the Steampunk, Post-Apocalyptic, nomadic, wastelandish SL habitants and other hobo artists. Not so long ago, all this stuff used to cost hundreds upon hundreds of Linden Dollars. Today, for reasons I still don't know (I just learned of this sale a few minutes ago), Perefim Cao, owner of OMFG!, decided to offer all this gear to whoever wants to take it for L$1 per item. OMFG! WHAT? Yes, as you read it: only 1L per item, and there are dozens, most of them really cool looking. The bunch includes armors, weapons, vehicles, clothing, eyes, tinies, whole sets... this and that, both scripted and unscripted. You end up paying some L$150 if you get everything, or a little bit more if you decide to give something to the tip jar and contribute to the cause. Go, visit OMFG! in Forsaken City and get whatever you want (slurl).

Update:

I found out why Perefim Cao is doing this dollarbie sale. Winter Jefferson blogged about it three days ago (gosh! it seems I need to spend more time reading the blogroll). Read the explanation in Jefferson's blog, In Cold Blood (he's a vampire, so what did you expect?).

Gift Wall at KMADD City

I read last night in My Second Life on the D-list of a very nice Endeavor check shirt available as a gift. Being a freebie aficionado myself, I clicked the link expecting it would take me to the Endeavor store, where I was supposed to find the prize. I landed in the main hall of KMADD City instead, the Mecca of SL male fashion. I was like, "hmm this people must have mixed up the link". So I checked the blog again, clicked the link once more, and landed back in the same spot for the second time. "WTF?" was my first thought, then I guessed that Endeavor could have a shop somewhere around KMADD --after all, it is a big shopping mall. It would be a matter of finding a city map and searching for the store, then tp or fly there. So I looked around and found a board similar to those TP directories I've seen in other places. Among the "destinations" was Endeavor, which confirmed my first shot.

Immediately, I clicked the Endeavor square expecting a teleport option would show up, but a microsecond later it became evident this wasn't a directory, but a wall full of gifts. My reaction was "Jeez! surely a group only thingy, and I'm not a member", but to my surprise they are for anyone to pick!!! So my advice to you is: Hey, stop reading this blog and head straight to KMADD City and grab everything before they change their minds... (slurl).

Silent Sparrow in dove

Yes, here I come with another fashion post. But it's not my fault. Go ahead and blame hyasynth Tiramisu. Why? Because today it was her birthday (SL time, yesterday by some mortal standards), and she decided to celebrate the occasion --and the new Silent Sparrow revamp also unveiled today-- with the release of a new suit: Ryou. I can't do anything but to give both jobs a perfect scoring. You will have to go to the store to see how much it changed, but here you have a couple of pics from the suit.

I won't go by the details this time since it's a set --except for the hat, my beloved Dr. John, now showing a creamy band, and my practical black Oxfords.

We should say this is  haute couture (though it's really a prêt à porter) because this outfit is easily among the finest (Photoshop) sewings you can find in all SL. It may even be the best suit Silent Sparrow has released to date, if you ask me.

The suit comes in seven different colors: ash, blood, dusk, rust, wine, azure, and dove (the last one shown in the pictures). All are available separately for 450L, and include both male and female versions in the same package. Each set comes with  jacket (with or without shirt), sculptie cuffs, gloves, a feathery scarf, and tails, plus a winged tattoo if you chose to wear the jacket with no shirt.

Great work Ms. Tiramisu, and happy birthday to you. Silent Sparrow (slurl).
