rooftop thinking

August 3rd, 2010 7:06 am by Mitch Wisent

Sometimes, when I want to get lost in thought or just think about everything that has happened to me I go up on the rooftops and think.  It’s quieter there and you get a new perspective on the entire world.  Although I can’t see stars anymore there is a dizzying array of neon lights and panoramic views of everything below.  It tells me that we are all part of something bigger and something greater and we should strive to be noble and be our best regardless of the situation we find ourselves in.

From the rooftops of Insilico. Poses by Vista Animations. Yes I’m thinking about you baby :) The top is a new release from Chantkare and I really like it. The pants were also from Chantkare. I really didn’t know what to put with them until I remembered the boots from AVZ. I already had the black pair but ...

New Release Ian Shape

July 31st, 2010 11:55 am by Mitch Wisent

Finally finished up with this shape that I’ve been actually working on ever since I picked up the LAQ Emmett skin.  The shape stands roughly 6’3″ in sl and that is a result of me sizing the head to match up with the hair and the hairbase used on the skin so if you use the suggested skin and hair you shouldn’t have to mod either.  After the head size was fixed everything else started working it out in it’s own unique way.

Also, I finished up info cards in all my demos available which will tell you which skin the shapes were specifically tailored for. My shapes are specifically designed for certain skins. Like making a special hand to go inside a glove. If you were disappointed trying one on with a skin you like better please feel free to drop me a notecard and we can discuss ways ...

hard days night

So it was another rough night.  I don’t know how I woke up and got these bloody knuckles or why my head feels like it was ran over by a tank, but I think I might have missed something.

extra inspiration

July 29th, 2010 5:38 pm by Mitch Wisent

Sometimes it’s a struggle to come up with new ideas, and I’ll be the first to admit that sometimes I do fall in a trap of repeating myself.  I do like certain things more than others.  I started out trying to do a summer outfit today and wound up at the office banging away at the keyboard.  I really had to dig down for that extra inspiration.

So after wrenching my hands together and biting some nails I decided to go with what I was wearing. Good thing my office is at home :)

Coat and Tie required

July 28th, 2010 2:26 pm by Mitch Wisent

So I was somewhere out in the night.  I had assumed earlier where I’d go would require a coat and tie.  I like being prepared for these things so I dressed accordingly.

Shattered glass wasn’t on the things I wanted to see. Deciding that I didn’t want any part of the place I was in, I made a phone call to Cari to come pick me up.

The REAL story: I was looking around and wondered inside Zenith, which I haven’t been in a long time. Found a wonderful blue pinstripe jacket. It comes in two styles one with an unbuttoned shirt under it and one without. I added the beater and the tie. I needed a bit of extra cool and added a cigarette and some shades. Pants from Armidi and shoes from ...

Full skin review and I show my butt

July 27th, 2010 5:57 am by Mitch Wisent

Almost a week ago at this point I picked up the new LAQ Emmett skin and I have since really fallen in love with it.  So here’s a full look at what the [peach] skin tone has to offer.
LAQ review head
As you can see from above the facial hair is absolutely great on these skins. All these hair options come in one package so you can swap whenever you feel like it. The hair is also from LAQ and is designed to fit with the bald base on the skin. However, if you are not using the LAQ shape they sell with this be prepared to edit the hair and it has no resizing scripts. All that aside, this is both an excellent hair and skin which I would recommend to anyone. Now, I present my butt :)

Ok so the title of the post has nothing to do with what’s in it, but after I took the first pic I noticed my eyes were closed in it.  In any event I’m not sure what to call this look other than comfortable to me.  I like the clothes and the designers so I hope you do the same :)   Pictures were only resized in photoshop and taken on Caliah settings with high graphics.

New Skin and Warehouse sale

July 23rd, 2010 6:32 pm by Mitch Wisent

Fresh from the Armidi half price sale at the Warehouse and a new skin and hair as well.
07222010 LotD 3
I was told a few nights ago about a new skin release from LAQ that had a unique hair design paired up to go with of course new hair they were offering. When I found them I tried them on with my current face. I quickly returned home and made my adjustments and as I did, it became more and more apparent that the faces on these skins were of excellent quality. Then I became worried about the shape I had edited and if the hair would actually fit onto my headshape and line up with the hair on the skin. Not suprisingly the answer was no. LAQ does offer thier own shapes for sale which would easily remedy this problem, but I do like my shape. So back with the hair ...

Ash

July 22nd, 2010 10:32 pm by Mitch Wisent

So to dip back down in the bucket of something a bit different.  Buried has Drow skins and yay for the background in Blue Galaxy – Caisteal.
Ash in fire 1
Ash on and old man’s sleeve
Is all the ash the burnt roses leave.
Dust in the air suspended
Marks the place where a story ended.
Dust inbreathed was a house—
The walls, the wainscot and the mouse,
The death of hope and despair,
This is the death of air.

Orange Nyght

July 19th, 2010 11:03 pm by Mitch Wisent

Red Queen released a new skin as a group gift and I became terribly interested in it.
Fallen
It reminded me of my early days in sl when I used to sit around and listen to audio dramas. I’m a big fan of audio dramas in general. NOT books on cd, audio dramas. Fully voice acted serials in praticular. So after searching I found the Village of Nyght sim that does indeed play classic audio dramas.  Audio dramas are a very big part of americana and considering the skin I wanted to go for quite a departure of what I usually post. I had picked up a few items from Toxic Orange a long time ago and a friend recommended I go take another peek there. So here you go. I hope you enjoy :)

New Shape Releases

As many of you know I am the shape designer behind Homme Fait.  Finally, I have new releases.  I know it’s been some time, but I can honestly say I hope it was worth the wait.  I love all four of my new shapes and I hope you all enjoy them as well.  If you have any problems or questions feel free to drop me a note card in second life.  I’ll respond as soon as I can.
Combo Add
I’ve been working on these shapes off and on since last October and while I did have to take time away due to pc and rl issues. It gave me a chance to wait and reflect on them. I went back and modded them many times over the course of the past months and I’m very happy with the outcome.

Bow Ties are cool

July 9th, 2010 10:21 am by Mitch Wisent

Ok, so I’ve been on a mission for the past few days to put together an outfit with a bow tie.  I know that a lot of you will say that it shouldn’t be that hard and I’d totally agree with you.  However, I would like to point out there is a SEVERE lack of quality button up closed collar shirts in SL and there is also a SEVERE lack of quality bow ties in sl.  After looking through several stores and coming up empty, I remembered doing an advertisement over a year ago for Adjunct who at the time had bow ties.  Now it stands to reason if you make bow ties you’d probably either make shirts to go with them or you’d be able to refer someone to a place that did indeed have those type of shirts.  I don’t like to IM people out of the blue, ...

Prodigal skins

July 7th, 2010 3:04 pm by Mitch Wisent

I supposed the name is kind of ironic being my second post back from hiatus.  I had taken to the grid with the challenge of finding something new and different.  At least something I hadn’t seen before.  Yes baby, I used the dreaded misleading search function.  I run through the first few “stores” and I’m mostly apalled at what I find and that’s when I found a store called Prodigal.  Designed by Ry0ta Exonar, I saw skins.
Now, first let me explain my relationship with skins in second life. First off, I have never found what I deem is the perfect skin in second life and I have finally become content that I never will. I know some of you would say, “Make your own.” While I know I lack the talent to actually make my own skin it doesn’t stop me from having an opinion on which one I ...

The Return

July 5th, 2010 9:13 pm by Mitch Wisent

Hey everybody.  I’ve been gone away from blogging for way to long.  I’ve had real life issues and they aren’t over, but they are definately starting to look better.  Since my return I’ve been pretty frustrated with the lack of clothing options for men available in sl.  There are some good sl designers for male clothing, but we still have no where near the options that women do and we should realize that and try to help the male designers in sl meet the needs of the customers.  Friendly notecards of praise or logical suggestions are usually always appreciated.  I was talking to Cari earlier in the day and she commented that I hadn’t been looking around hard enough for something new and a little different in sl.  So taking it as a challenge I spent the better part of the afternoon looking at different items from all over the ...

10252009 Mitch

Yesterday, I don’t believe I have ever been more satisfied with the way an outfit turned out than what I wore to the Ho Down.  However, it occured to me a long time ago in my life that when you are satisfied it means you need to try harder.  Certain things I’ve put on here multiple times.  Obviously some of my more favorite things to wear, so I thought it was time to go in a new direction.  Something different.  I started digging around and the first thing I came up wtih was a skin store that I wasn’t even familiar with.  I had never been there and had heard nothing about them.  The name was MAI and while I haven’t been there before I do plan on going back soon.  I tried on a few demos and started to really like what I saw especially with the face definition.  ...

10192009 A little rock n rolla

Looking around for something interesting to wear today I found a post over at Maddesigns about some jeans at Zoobong so I went over to check them out… These jeans are cut low… very low.  I tried various shirts with no real luck when it dawned on me about a shirt I had picked up from Valiant a few weeks ago and how low the belt was on it.  Trying it on it fit perfect and I was completely happy.  Tossed in a few odds and ends from my inventory and added the new release from Signature Skin Labs called John Paine and everything sort of came into focus.  I’m pretty harsh and critical on a lot of skins which is why I don’t change mine THAT much.  I do really like the face on the John Paine and the body looks very well done.  The pictures are taken in ...

10182009Mitch

So as some of you read yesterday, we were gathering up freebies to help out a friend and I knew there were some over at The Block, so I start looking around for them and I find where DMC used to be there’s Deserted.  After some inspection it’s still the same place but with a new name and new clothes.  It had been a while since I’ve been to DMC so maybe I was out of the know on the name change.  I’m not sure how long it’s been changed lol but, I loved DMC and the best qualities from those clothes are still here with an update towards sculpties.  Dragontat has done an excellent job on both the store and the contents within.  Bravo to you and all the guys from the Block nice work.
I picked up two jeans and a t-shirt and today I finished off the ...

50L Friday and checks

10162009 Mitch

So I log on today and Cari tells me that Fishy Strawberry has those fantastic unisexy Equinox jeans on 50L Friday so it’s a no brainer to pick up.  Honestly, I do really like these jeans and there are other colors besides the Siena at only 130L each, which makes it well worth the price even not on 50L Friday.  I toyed around with a few shirt options and nothing screamed “me”.  After polishing off dinner and logging back in, I remembered some shirt’s at Truth’s that I had my eye on for a while and thought they might work.  After dropping by there and picking up exactly what I wanted I grabbed a few accessories from my inventory and was finally satisfied XD.
