Newbie Style Challenge II

I was stalking a few blogs earlier today and I came across a challenge that one of my favourite bloggers, Bouncer Criss had blogged about. I followed the link and thought, hey I'd like to give that a go! The rules are pretty simple, spend less than L$550, use only items currently available and don't use anything from your library. There is no doubt that it's pretty damn hard for us fella's to put together a complete avatar for next to nix, but armed with half a fistful of dollars, off I went - you can check out Gogo's challenge here.

Steam's noob busting style:
Hair - Damselfly, Justice, black pearl, store gift
Eyes - Sterling Artistry: November Shadow, store gift
Skin - Belleza: Jacob, deep tan, group gift - L$250 to join
Shape - [Identity]: Sander, group gift - L$100 to join

All up, my total spend was L$450.

Until next time...

R.I.P. [BAIT]

I've been so busy in real life it's taken me ages to put this post together - something about RL work and priorities!!  In my spare time I did however go looking for a pair of jeans to pair with the awesome hoodie I picked up from FK!, my mind immediately turned to [BAIT]..... but I couldn't find the store. A quick check on the profile of Travis Enchanted showed me why. Huge shame, the store has closed and Travis has returned to real life. I still managed to pull a great pair of [BAIT] jeans from inventory where they will most likely always remain. So here's to [BAIT], their great gear and the hope they return one day!





Whaaaaa? I ain't f&#king doin nuthin!!!

Urban Chic

It was a hot day, me and my buds were hanging out on the street corner, you know, just shooting the breeze and telling lies. It was a pretty cool time, some hot chicks strolled by every now and then helping give the optic nerve a workout, it was a good day!

What the f$%k you looking at?

In putting today's look I'm wrapped with the interaction between the Belleza skin and the [Identity] shape, it's produced one kick ass looking avatar, add to that the hair and....! It took me a while to find the right hair, well that was until I found Lotus - they sell awesome hair and there is no doubt I'll be back.

I've also been playing around with GIMP and seeing just what I can achieve with it... thank goodness for google!!

Today Steam is wearing:
Kentaro hair - from Lotus
Vibrant eyes - from A:S:S
Ashton skin - from Belleza
Shape - from Identity Studios
Anchor tattoo - from Para Designs
Temptation tattoo - from [BAIT]
Sin7 piercing - from iPOKE
Spine necklace - from Grumble
Darkness jeans - from [BAIT]

Until next time...
