Don’t fear the reaper

“All our times have come
Here but now they’re gone
Seasons don’t fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain..we can be like they are
Come on baby…don’t fear the reaper
Baby take my hand…don’t fear the reaper
We’ll be able to fly…don’t fear the reaper”

When I woke up yesterday I had this song in my head and I did not get rid of it yet. What a huge coincidence it was, when I remembered that a fellow blogger – Shayariel – posted a blogger challenge, inspired my song text and guess which song has its turn now? Correct “Don’t fear the reaper” so this was perfect

The picture you see above has been in my mind exactly the moment I knew about the challenge, and it took a bit of time to get everything I wanted and set it up. But it was worth it. Also I did a huge amount of post processing to make it look like I wanted it

The other picture was rather spontaneous after my good friend Cale helped me to find this awesome cemetary. We have been there during a hunt lots of time ago and it took a while to remember where it was.

The Dark Hour

“And still there comes this dark, dark hour -
Which is not borne of Care;
Into my heart it creeps before
I am aware.”
Excerpt of “The Dark Hour” by William Henry Davies

Since I’ve got this dress I wanted to make a gothy picture with it. It has been longer to get into the mood for it but I’m finally there. I’m not feeling all too well and my best friend gave me the advice to focus my energy on something to handle those feelings. And here we are. I always use creativity for an outlet.

A dear friend of mine has shown me a place in Second Life I did not know about. “Art Box” takes known art and makes little photo-builds in SL to mimic them. You just jump on a poseball, get into a nice outfit and voilà there you go. It is really great and there are so many builds in it that I am sure I’ll use it more often in the future.

Today’s Picture has been taken there as well. I changed the pose slightly though, since one arm vanished inside the skirt. Apart from that it is like you can find it. Of course a little Photoshop work made this all complete, so it still look slightly different.

What did I use and were can you get it?

Out there is a new world! Out there is our victory! Out there is our destiny!

Last night after shopping at the “Extend a Helping Hand” Fund-raiser I was in the mood to make Pictures with one of the outfits I have gotten there. In case you did not hear about “EAHH” (where do you live? Under a rock? ), it is an event to collect funds to help the affected ones of the Queensland Floods in Australia.

So, I’ve got this spacey Sci-fi outfit and I needed to make pictures with that, have been in the mood for something like that for a while so this opportunity was perfect. Since I usually do not have weapons I was looking around for a while until I found this baby, and doesn’t it look great? It comes with an integrated AO to hold the weapon and quite some features, too many to list.

The Helmet is from Omega Point and has the option to change colors, so I could easily make it fit the uniform. The texture of the visor in front is animated so it looks like you have some nice effect as if you are reading a portable terminal. I did not find the shop inworld anymore but maybe you have the helmet in your inventory

Since not everyone in Sci-Fi Stories comes from Earth I did not have to stick to my usual human look and this was right the chance to use of my recently bought Nomine Skins and Fallen Gods Eyes.

A friend of mine saw the look and said it would remind him of Tron. I have not seen the new movie yet but there is one quote i had to think of when he said that and it kind of fits the picture I’ve been “painting” here:

“Out there is a new world! Out there is our victory! Out there is our destiny!”
