Fish!

I was playing around a bit with (sort of) random rotation, and whaddayaknow, next moment I had built a freebie fishtank for the hobo's. With captain Orhalla on the package.
That was the easy part.
Then I wanted to make it full perms. Damn, that's difficult. I had to send it to Pavig three times to check before I got it right (thanks Pavig!). Turns out you have to set each-and-every prim to full perms, as well as the objects in them ánd all the scripts!
Everything full perm by default! To the barricades! Storm Linden Labs!
I bet Ruth looks better with a full perm too.

You can get it at my shops with freebies shortly. For now it's in Pavig's docks at Calleta.
Go get a copy. Just click it and you'll get one.
Click it 30 times and you get thirty; you're all set to make modern art.

Hobo squat

Zimmy had built a (sorry Zimmy) rather boring and huge structure on a little piece of land he owns, right next to the Calleta Hobo Railroad infohub. This infohub is a wonderful and attractive place built by SL's best dressed man Orhalla Zander which has grown into a meeting place for builders, artists, hippies, banana phone fetishists, rastafarians, newbies, punks, cowboys a.s.o. This Hobo group has a couple of things in common; they goof around and build a lot, help eachother and don't care too much for money.
I offered Zimmy to make a new structure that would fit the scenery a little better and built this favela / ruin. It has three floors, and a lot of little niches, boxes and huts for the hobo's to crawl into.


The outer textures are made from pictures I took of demolition sites in my hometown, the inside walls are from photos of a bombed building in Lebanon.
And again, this one is also free to copy; just click on it. Just be sure to have the edit window open when you rez it, as it consists of three unlinked floors. It was too big to link.

Ooh goodie, compliments!

I am as vain as I am pretty, so sometimes I take a couple of minutes on a sunday afternoon to google myself. I found the Second Life Merchant Times wrote a whole new article on my new store 10 days ago. "A shop as good-looking as its products" he writes, and he's not being cynical I think.

I also found an interview with Pavig Lok in the Second Life Insider, where he mentions me as one of his favorite content creators. Whoa. There's my name in one paragraph together with such SL celebrities as Mis Ordinal, Fade Dana and the wonderful Arcadia Asylum (best builder in SL, imo)! Besides that, I'm a big fan of Pavig's work (there's Greenies, of course, and all his freebies and goggles, fleas and so on, oh and I really like the docks near the Hobo info hub) and I'm so honored I'm almost falling off my chair.
