Return to Wyrd

Seraphim went back to the cafe she decorated for Veyot, the Last Drop Cafe in Wyrd. She hasn’t been back here for months, lots has changed for her, in that time. She was delighted to see how much the neighbourhood has changed, the ugly, intrusive builds gone, and a far more tranquil, rural vibe, happening. The front of the cafe had also been nicely landscaped…

… walking in, she was even more delighted! She’d forgotten how much time/effort she’d spent on this installation, and how much she really loved the result…

… she had literally forgotten some of the last changes she’d made, here, and seeing them, and being reminded, was like having her heart cuddled…

… she’d put a lot of thought/effort into creating this particular, eclectic/cool/cute decor…

… and it was really lovely to see, after months away, she still felt she’d nailed the look…

… there are many of Seri’s treasures, here. Something she loves about these type of installations, is she can take stuff out of her inventory, and display it, without it effecting her home prim count…

… she has always enjoyed…

… the challenges of…

… shooting in this tiny space (:

Wonderland

Seraphim visited Wonderland, this evening. Straight off, at the landing point, it was obvious this wasn’t a conventional ‘Wonderland’…

… it was quite surreal…

… while obvious ‘Wonderland’ tropes were there, there were also more ancient, pre-‘Wonderland’, but still, somehow, ‘Wonderland’ themes…

… it all worked well, together, and was very pretty…

… quite ancient themes were to be seen…

… and some scenes…

… were simply stunning.

Walkabout

Seraphim decided to go walkabout, today, something she’s not done for a long time, possibly years. Starting at the Story Motel, she just walked around, looking at houses from the street… too many nasty ‘ejects’, over the years, have made her extremely wary of going onto peoples plots, no matter how inviting they look. This one was wonderfully ‘suburban’…

… this one, dauntingly ‘elite’…

… this one, a happy medium…

… this one nicely eccentric…

… this one, slightly more so. There are so many wonderful homes to see, sometimes, when you just walk about (:

Pandasia Cheesecake Two

CheesyTwo

Seraphim returned to gorgeous Pandasia, to shoot some cheesecake images of herself, but quickly became more interested in continuing her exploration, as she realised how large the place is…

CheesyTwo2

… large and very beautiful…

CheesyTwo3

… wonderful scenes everywhere…

CheesyTwo4

… magical animals everywhere…

CheesyTwo5

… and hidden places…

CheesyTwo6

… with more gorgeous, magical animals…

CheesyTwo7

… a truely delightful sim to melt your heart (:

The Lost Unicorn Gallery

LostUnicorn

Seraphim has hardly visited any galleries for at least a year, more like two… and, suddenly, she’s visited two in a few days! Today she visited The Lost Unicorn Gallery

LostUnicorn2

… she was very impressed. The gallery is beautifully decorated, and the art, which is all fantasy art, is very good… it’s easy for this genre of art to be cliched, but almost all the images on display, here, were above-average works…

LostUnicorn3

… and beautifully large…

LostUnicorn4

… Seraphim can’t remember when she last saw so many excellent works in a single gallery…

LostUnicorn5

… she thoroughly enjoyed wandering around this large space…

LostUnicorn6

… and found the range of works delightful…

LostUnicorn7

… none of them appeared to be for sale…

LostUnicorn8

… but, if they had been, this is the kind of place where, a few years ago, Seraphim would have blown a small fortune!

Sol Existence

SolEx

Seraphim went back to Sol Existence, this morning. She visited here about 18 months ago, but didn’t really spend a lot of time here. She remembered it’s windswept, island-in-the-sea aspect, so she rugged up in thick wool before she went…

SolEx2

… she found these guys pretty cute…

SolEx3

… but these stone buildings just blow her mind…

SolEx4

… especially this one…

SolEx5

… the detail and texturing are exquisite…

SolEx6

… some of the most beautifully made buildings she’s ever seen in SL…

SolEx7

… the sim builder/s had seen fit to park a huge, cheesy balloon right next to the far side of this gorgeous building, which ruled out any decent shot from that angle, and the one from this angle took a fair bit of manoeuvring in order to exclude the balloon’s cartoonish bulk… but Seri is pleased with the result.

Poinsettia

PoinsettiaPost

Seraphim asked Cruella Pennell for a greyscale copy of her stunning Poinsettia hair, so she could promote it… Cruella sent her the fatpack! Seri went for the pink/purple one…

PoinsettiaPost2

… she adores this rich, wine-like purple colour…

PoinsettiaPost3

… the floral ornaments are optional, have to be added… they have their own HUD to change their patterns/colours…

PoinsettiaPost5

… each colour range of Adoness hair has several variations of shade, which, even within their range, give you quite a distinct variety of colours…

PoinsettiaPost6a

… if you hurry, you can get 50% off the Adoness range, until the 2nd of December.
