Moon Child

I stayed up late again making another pose and photo lol...I could have worse habits! I made a "walking" pose tonight. This was taken on a green screen, and I made the background from "scratch." I used various free brushes I downloaded and just played around trying to make it look cool. I feel like this somewhat makes up for the sloppy edit I did this morning...or yesterday...or whenever lol


Yes, it's the same outfit (mostly) as the last post, but I can't help it. It's cute! lol
The changes I made were to the hair and shoes/stockings, so it has quite a different feel to it than the first edit. Plus, the pale skin makes for a dramatic change.

Another New Pose

I stayed up too late playing in Blender last night and ended up making another cute pose. It's simple again, but I did do more with the hands than the last one. I like it for what it is. If I get good enough at doing these, I will throw them up on MP. Can't hurt to see if it helps support some of my shopping addiction, lol! 


This is a super sloppy edit, but the pose is what I'm featuring. RL is encroaching, so I will try to do it justice later on. These are more fun things from this round of Uber-- Reign, Tram, and Canimal. I love the messy bun on the Tram hair-- too cute!

Learning to Pose!

I've learned to make a pose in Blender! I've been wanting to figure this out for a long time, especially since Bento bones are in the mix now. I wanted an 'action' pose for the outfit I put together, so I figured this would be a good time to jump into some tutorials and learn something new. I didn't make it too spectacular or complicated, but it does what I want it to, lol.


I saw this bodysuit by Canimal at Uber and couldn't resist making a skating outfit with it, lol. I love the shiny blue with the pink hair. It's making my eyes happy. I'm starting to get the hang of color, lol. It's been a while since I've been in black for every photo or outfit. It is what it is lol...maybe it's seasonal :D

Up All Night

So I haven't slept, hence two blog posts in a row, lol. I have not stayed up all night in a very long time! It's 10 am, and I'll probably drop soon. But I figured I'd blog the photo I worked on tonight along with the one I edited yesterday (somewhere around there, lol). I'm not thrilled with how this photo turned out, but each one is a learning experience.


I love, love, love this dress from United Colors! The photo really doesn't do it justice, lol. It's great for a casual summer/beachy look and goes perfectly with the new Truth hair release that's at Uber right now. I worked and worked at getting this photo done tonight-- but only because I was struggling to get decent photo quality on my laptop, so I decided to take the photo on the desktop and edit it on the laptop, which led me down a path of trying to get the two computers to see each other and be able to transfer files, lol! Seems simple, but nothing in my life ever is. Eeep  I am babbling in my blog post! But nobody reads this, right? lol...... I need sleep... or coffee.... hmmm

Respite

I've been working on getting both the PC and laptop workable for editing photos and videos from either place since I've been working from bed so much lately. Having to spend to much time "resting" has me quite bored and feeling creative.


This photo is a step forward for me in terms of scenery. This is my new front yard! I love my beach, lol. I love when a shot just comes together at the end of the day-- no real direction, just inspiration. It's a simple shot, but I love the feel of it.
