And they have been running into all kinds of trouble. Episode two was already shot at my salon, and now there's episode five in which P. loses her cherry to my punk rat avatar.

I love the avatars and art he makes; defenitely among the weirdest and greatest in SL. Some time ago he opened his first (main) store and I asked him if he wanted to make a statuette at my land in <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Oculea/145/205/49">Oculea</a> to serve as a landmarkgiver to his <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Epirrhoe/80/240/76/">new shop</a>.<br />He then made a statue of <span style="font-style: italic;">me</span>, ha! I asked him if he maybe misunderstood my offer, but no, it was all on purpose. So there it is, at the railway station. I made a little fountain around it (go and try sitting on it:) and a couple of days later Olza had added two beautiful colored slugs crawling into the water. Great surprise :)<br /><br />Thanks a lot Olza!<br /><br />Go check out <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Epirrhoe/80/240/76/">his psychosomatic rebuilders shop</a>!

Because she's a fun person and because it would be a fun build. I finally got around to building it and I like the way it turned out.<br />It has way too many textures for such a small build (comme d'habitude) and it takes ages to rez them all but it does have a lot of details to look at. My favorites are the canned lettuce and the picture of a young Pavig Lok. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwwjwctKoNZQzGrYyXmLwjXbHjnxTHCTfrSd1QqVasEw_kCk1ltwNFQDl7Q5XHzUTNIW4Kwf_pappTj78RtEoScWt4KvuPPfc8j2qMXTgidqyczlwKJWd4ulKGXP5wX8YKTro7cHDoE9I/s1600-h/bloglettuce.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 197px; height: 140px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwwjwctKoNZQzGrYyXmLwjXbHjnxTHCTfrSd1QqVasEw_kCk1ltwNFQDl7Q5XHzUTNIW4Kwf_pappTj78RtEoScWt4KvuPPfc8j2qMXTgidqyczlwKJWd4ulKGXP5wX8YKTro7cHDoE9I/s320/bloglettuce.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5180865985890834594" border="0" /></a>But there's also beans. a picture of Rimbaud (the poet, not Reggier) canned sock, culinary books on roadkill, beans, gastritis, a bean plant, a dental plaque, lots of rats, beans, money, a (new! improved!) filthy bed, beans, a gun, flags, and much more.<br />So somehow a beans theme also slipped into the build, and I have no idea why. Maybe I was hungry? Flatulent? Probably both.<br />I added a whopping 15 poses which are fun to find. But you can also use the spoiler notecard.<br /><br />Reggier threw me a party* when the vardo was done: '<span style="font-style: italic;">Tooter Claxton appreciation day</span>', lol. That was really fun until Orhalla came with the bad news about Patty1 getting injured in Iraq. You probably read about that by now <a href="http://npirl.blogspot.com/2008/03/sending-our-love-to-patty1-rosca.html">here</a> or <a href="http://nwn.blogs.com/nwn/2008/03/hobo-support-sl.html">here</a> or <a href="http://hiberniaskids.blogspot.com/2008/03/hobos-wellwish-patty1-rosca-live-at.html">here</a>.

I made fifteen different cubicles with which I could add new floors in no time. Which I did of course, higher and higher, until the building was over 400 prims big. But </span><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);">when I had it all set up in the temp rezzers and tried rezzing it I found big chunks were vanishing randomly.<br />Damn. Back to the drawing board.<br /><br />Aley Arai to the rescue! She patiently explained to me how temp rezzers work. If I remember right -correct me if I am wrong, please- it makes the prims rez like any 'real' prim, but they get taken away and rerezzed very quickly so the prim counter of the land can't keep up with it. This works fine for small low prim structures (like my hob</span><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);">o ruin) but the primmy monster I had built took too long to rerez and that was why I was seeing parts of the building disappear from time to time.<br />As I have said before, Aley also showed me some nifty tricks with megaprims that I used to rebuild the SLLU tower block. Always great to get advice from the best builders in SL, thanks Aley!<br /><br />I have now rebuilt it. It's as high as it was, 9 floors, and only slightly less complex in it's construction than the first version. It's still modular, so I can add more floors quickly when needed. And I managed to stay under 200 prims.

Don't worry. He is in good hands. You probably don't know that my brother will some day be the sole heir of the Claxton fortune. However, my brother also suffers from anxieties and together with our medical staff I am working hard to cure him so that he may enjoy his future wealth in good health.<br /><br />My brother is an agliophobe, which we try to cure with a 'hands on' approach, which indeed does include tazering him from time to time.<br />But the main focus of our therapy is to cure him of his chrometophobia, which we do by making him sell avatars, over and over again. I hope you understand that leaving a fortune in the hands of a chrometophobe is dangerous and I assure you that everything we do to him is done with the best intentions.<br /><br />We hope you will continue to support our therapy by buying an avatar from him every now and then. Kicking him in the keister while you do this also helps a lot.<br /><br />thank you,<br /><br />Tooter Claxton<span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span>Tooter Claxtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16654806919716568415noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109854228109467004.post-59917995145872214432007-12-21T10:04:00.001-08:002007-12-21T10:19:56.080-08:00I'm in the movies! MaskI'm a bit late to blog about it (as usual) but my picture is in this awesome morph movie of Robbie Dingo:<br /><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/naSOCHeF3P0&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/naSOCHeF3P0&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br />Be sure to click on the YooToob logo and watch Robbie's other video's! <span style="font-style: italic;">Watch the worlds</span> is a masterpiece where he rebuilds van Gogh's painting in Second Life. (Too bad that cheesy <span style="font-size:-1;">Don McLean song keeps playing... hurray for volume control!)<br /></span>Tooter Claxtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16654806919716568415noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109854228109467004.post-69034770960276647852007-12-21T09:34:00.001-08:002008-12-11T07:12:21.912-08:00new vehicle: John Beere tractor<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4GrR9ms3kXtvllI5Fo1vYvPxXNeDFUSHbbnbl5DYa8QgKqouF5qu5cFWoEgL8KqVrvsel3XBnm15F_WFsiTQsNf8_G9-Kxx2vlb_lwkXVJf6RCrdwMf647nFUjEMJPEa-IoVy-1uRMDw/s1600-h/trekker.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4GrR9ms3kXtvllI5Fo1vYvPxXNeDFUSHbbnbl5DYa8QgKqouF5qu5cFWoEgL8KqVrvsel3XBnm15F_WFsiTQsNf8_G9-Kxx2vlb_lwkXVJf6RCrdwMf647nFUjEMJPEa-IoVy-1uRMDw/s400/trekker.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5146481136212128578" border="0" /></a><br />Damn, it's been a while since i made a vehicle. There's that crappy scooter and motorcycle and the very, very crappy airplane at my shops, but I sort of gave up on vehicles a long time ago. I can make them look kinda good, but I can't script, so they fly and ride like the driver is having a fit. Ah, but not this tractor; I borrowed Arcadia Asylum's script from her yellow cab that you see all over second life, and now it's a nice, smooth, slow ride.<br />Modelled -sort of- after a 1960's John Deere tractor. I saw on Flickr that fellow hobo and dutchman Rask has already <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/raskolnikow/2079058760/">raced</a> it on the Mercedes test track.<br /><br />Available for L$ 150 at one of my <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Oculea/182/217/49">shops</a>.Tooter Claxtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16654806919716568415noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109854228109467004.post-71681574914889873912007-12-21T08:20:00.001-08:002008-12-11T07:12:22.245-08:00New avatar: spider<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzynoxjtlV_VKt0Oewt_wDd4JHcfYRBg6xlbvoqBUlLkuYC2S_4P8V0n4lGbpF8Zn4uTfUZ4TPKtEMRdTQRenX98EL2gGEUaDckgioqHioU-iYOcAMqpNlDkFfklj4PEJVzeyZOhNmfjM/s1600-h/spider2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzynoxjtlV_VKt0Oewt_wDd4JHcfYRBg6xlbvoqBUlLkuYC2S_4P8V0n4lGbpF8Zn4uTfUZ4TPKtEMRdTQRenX98EL2gGEUaDckgioqHioU-iYOcAMqpNlDkFfklj4PEJVzeyZOhNmfjM/s400/spider2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5146465107394179874" border="0" /></a><br />I made this spider a while back with tiny prims, life sized. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEha0F74xU3UZaIydmUshLrExlIJIcU5KTVTa2H7uUH54h8r4TKZreFaIDwfyiDrJ2IQceqDP8cJ4bPrC88sY_KNZ_lVjz8wtk6Y_jEdoNcSvtsccIV8vGqhyphenhyphenI4yX6lIk8OyQ3gzt89GdcY/s1600-h/spider1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEha0F74xU3UZaIydmUshLrExlIJIcU5KTVTa2H7uUH54h8r4TKZreFaIDwfyiDrJ2IQceqDP8cJ4bPrC88sY_KNZ_lVjz8wtk6Y_jEdoNcSvtsccIV8vGqhyphenhyphenI4yX6lIk8OyQ3gzt89GdcY/s200/spider1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5146465343617381170" border="0" /></a>But now I have scaled it, added a bodycrusher and attached the legs to the limbs and now you can wear it as an avatar too.<br />The legs were a bitch to align.
