The Stringer Mausoleum is rises for Easter

It's been a while.

Some crazy lady dragged me inworld to make some crazy hair(you can all thank Treebee Withnail), so here I am!

Been spending a bit of time learning all this new shit, mesh layers, tattoo layers(ya, I still hadn't updated to V2 when I left, still had 1.23), petite avatars and many more things.

I have been making things, and am planning on updating the store bit by bit.

I do have some things for you to look at, so here we go . . . .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Crazy Hair Hunt 3 has started, and as per usual, I am late letting you know. There is a good reason tho! I changed my ads a bit, felt the other ones were a bit outdated. I might tweek them a bit, don't know yet.

The theme this round was Flora and Fauna. I made a really big, well not big, MASSIVE, hair with tentacle like vines and a big ass flower. Also due to my sister teaching me about Petite avatars, and gifting me one, I made the hair Petite sized as well.



The Hunt item is a sculpted circular celtic type thing. IDK???? Anyways, I was so not my normal mean self with hiding it, so it shouldn't take you long to find. Enjoy that while you can.

Mwahahahahahah . . . .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have been gone so long, that I wanted to do up some gifts for my loyal fans who have stayed in the group.

I have one big pack going in the group notices, it will have some hairs from recent ads and blogging, a few petite sized too! There are 2 Beta hairs I made in the last few days, that I had no clue what I'm doing with yet, so you can at least see what I've done so far.

I also have two group only gifts going into the store, here is a look at those:




Just wear your tag and click!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have also made a new instore gift, that is free for everyone on the grid. I have always wantedto do facial hair, so that was something on my list for when I came back. I made this one for the heck of it. It is for men, but as you can see I decked out my avi fem style and wore it anyways!



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I LUUUUUUUUUUUBS bunnahs! might not be big on the whole easter thang, but I don't mind the lil buggers shagging all over my lawn.

So I did a few eastery type things for you. Spunk Bunnah Sets are for both biggies and Petites(Sold Seperately). They have a 12 colour change hud upon click. Only L$25!




I have always enjoyed doing Special Edition recolours and tweeking. I did an easter one up of "Death of a Goddess" for the group, and decided to do one for everyone else to grab. it is L$25 aswell.



The Group Version, which is a nice deep red and deep carrot colour, will be going out in group notices sometime sunday SLT.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have been loving my new lil Petite avi, so naturally I have been playing to see which hairs will size down and adapt well enough.

Orly has always been a fav Vampy hair of mine. I will be doing it in all the colours, but for the time being I have the Limited Edition Dark Shines Pack in a Gacha.

It is L$25, the hairs are no trans, but if you want the whole set you can try your luck a few times by getting out of the gacha, or you can buy it in the vendor sign near the Machine.
 
I debated long and hard on putting them Tranferable(as most Gacha type stuff is) or leaving them Copy/Mod. I asked a few people, and one suggested to have the full pack set to sale, for those that want the whole set. Otherwise, if you just want one fun hair, you can just try your luck!



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That is all I have for you for now. Expect more petite stuff in the near future, as I'm going to have to pimp my own lil avi out, so I migh as well help you guys with yours too!

It's great to be back, and I want to thank everyone that has contacted me about my return. If you had any issue with the store in the last year, and I haven't yet gotten to your issue, please feel free to drop me a notecard.

Enjoy!

Alternative Fair New Release!

Hey guys,

So there is an Alternative Fair, full of sexy goodness for those who walk on the other side of sl. I have a booth at it. Duuuuuuuuuuur!

Kidding, but I do have a booth!

More details HERE!

My booth is on the pulse sim, right near the tp point.

My Shop Slurl
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Pulse/211/40/29

Now due to a misread on my part, my whole darn booth is full of new stuff. Thats right, all new!

I've got 2 unisex hairs, New skins, an outfit, a stringerized smexy shirt and some new eyes!

Now this like most fairs and big events in sl, has a charity, so I thus have charity items! I did 2 packs of Limited Edition stuff, you can only get these at the fair, and then they will poof!




A 4 pack of me new outfit, in Limited Edition Colours just for this event. It's at a super discounted price, you basically get 2 outfits for free. They are transferable too, like all my clothing items. So if there is a colour you don't like, you can share it =) 50% of this item goes to the Charity.



When I first started to play with the idea of my transition skins, I made them in light versions first. They didn't work out that awesome, only 4 of the 8 actually worked to my satisfaction(the other 4 are in the hunt currently at my store, figured you guys could still do "something" with them). So this pack is made up of the 4 that passed my inspection. You get 4 skins, ffor the wonderful price of L$600, which is actually just a little over paying for a single, so it's a super deal. These are Limited Editions, will poof after the fair, and 100% of this pack goes to the Charity!

The Hairs! Oh the hairs!

These unintentionally go sort of with the theme of the event.



I was making this, and for some reason got it in my head to try some braids with it, and liked the results.



This one sort of happened out of the blue, was trying to make a mohawk for someone with a finger in a light socket, but it ended up looking too much like Tonic and Allegory. I already have the hair almost done, and wanted to save it, so I decided to see if I could dread it somehow. This is how my efforts turned out =)

Skins-Transitonal Searies

Shadowthinger
These are the darker cousins to the Sunchaser skins. They are for creatures who lurk in the corners of allies or various similar low light envirionments. They have a string shadowing, to further enhance the fact that they do not live in the light. Not your typical skin you'll find out there. And they make me super happy, like drug enduced happy. I really made them for me, and wasn't going to share, but enough of you bugged me so here they are!

*Grudgingly lets go of her prizes*

















I have demos for you all, so check them out =)

EYES! wouldn't be a swampy event with out some Swamp Thang eyes now would it. These little buggers are part of my creature series. They have an off pupil and very big iris shape, more so then I normally do with my eyes. Again part of my rendering experiments.



I attempted more clothing. This first set is an outfit, you get it on all possible layers, and it is transferable like all my clothing items. And I went colour crazy, as always, can't help it, hehe. There are 12 colours to choose from.

The top is partly seethrough. If you double it up with another layer, it turns into a solid shirt.



This top sort of just happened out of random experimenting. and yes you can see nipples thru it, no they are not included in the design =) you has to get your own nips, leave mine alone!



That is it for now guys! I think I might have to go shopping myself, with all these various things going on, so I might just see you all on the grid, you never know!

Oh almost forgot, I did up a set of swampy like demon parts as a gift at the fair!

The Stringer Mausoleum Says more Hair Please!

Hey guys got lots for you today!

There is all sorts of stuff coming up for you guys, straight from me to The Stringer Mausoleum. I have tried a few more attempts at clothing, the alternative fair is on it's way, I've got another event at the end of the month. But do you know what the biggest thing is?

HELENA'S ANNUAL BIRTHDAY BONANZA!

Ya it's that time of the year again, I get old and shit XP

But before all this can take place, I had to get hair out!

New Releases:

Womens



This is actually a redo, sans the daggers it use to have. I'll make new spiffy ones sometime and set them for L$10 or something. This hair is a good classic staple, I don't make many so enjoy it.

Unisex



This lovely piece was inspired by an sl artist. You can view some of her works here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cerdwin/. It's been a long time coming, but it's finally been made, hope you like it!



One of my many weird experiments, sort of reminds me of a helmet.



Another oddball hair, a friend said it looks very cool on nekos. So you can be like alien neko or something. I'm sure you'll figure it out.

As always new releases for the first little while(normally a few days unless I forget), have 3 packs priced down to 75% off. So nab some deals while you can.

Back by popular demand:



Keep getting this one asked about, so I dug it out, and it's uber cheap for the whole MEGApack. L$25!



Same here, so because you want it, here it is. This is a MEGApack aswell, and it's just L$50.

New Savoir Hair Samplers:





Savoir Hair has a newhome, and I was asked back after not being there for a long time. New to this location is the ability to have both a mens and womens style. Bigger, better and more desginers, what more cold you ask for to start a nice hair collection. Tell all your new player friends!

Here is the Slurl
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Hairspray%202/125/72/27

I am also in the Crazy Arse Hair Hunt, and made something sort of alien and organic at the same time, so find the weird arse doll globe and claim your prize! Hint in my "Hint cube of HELL!"

And Lastly, I'm reintroducing my Limited Edition Mini Hunts for new releases. Some of my oldies will remember them, some of you new people will not, but they were always mega fun, and it's nice knowing you have one of only 5 on the grid, sitting right there in inventory!

Detailed info will be in my next Post.

Okay I think I'm done now, I can't see anymore new product, so I don't think I missed anything!

Enjoy!

April Showers bring . . .

New Snazzy mohawks!

But more on that in a bit.

This Releases draw winners are:

Inworld Group

Belochka Shostakovich

HippoGroup

Willow Fairey
Rewbe Mulberry
Kurathra Ametza

They get to pick any ONE item, in any ONE colourpack of the new releases.

And here is is! A unisex hair. You get to see my new ad style. I'm updating cause well I've had the old ones for a bit, and I like to change things up.

In the Rain was simply inspired by just that, the rain. I was thinking about what a mohawk would look like in the rain, after all the glue started to bleed out.

I feel it turned out beyond what I originally planned for this hair. To me it seems like a hair everyone can were, it's not as extreme and I can picture all sorts of avi's in it.

As always 75% off the hair packs depicted in the ad for the first 24hours. Since now there are only 2 avi's in the ads, I'll randomly select one other pack, to keep it at 3.

Release Mini Hunt

With my new releases, I put out special packs hidden in the store. There are only ever 5 of each pack. Some are single colours, some are full packs. These are all textures that have been made for some reason, but aren't sold with my regular packs. The singles this week are L$25 and the full packs(6-8 hair textures) are L$75. They are original, so please pick up after you grab them.

I updated a oldie that was out only for a month or so way back in may last year. She is only L$1 per colour, and right now in the group there is a 5 colour pack!

I decided to put out some of my funky recolours I make for my personal use, in some lucky boards. These I randomly do up, and never sell. So they are not only special editions, but also limited editions, cause they will only be in the board, till I put something else in there.

So come try your luck!

Deal of the Week

Tenta

75% off all packs
50% off Mega pack
one random pack down to only L$10!

I know this has been going on for a wee bit, but I keep forgetting to talk about it, so this is the last week. Then these go back up to normal price. All packs are 50% off.

Get on down to the store! http://slurl.com/secondlife/Lyashko/174/165/298

More news soon, there are a few things coming up. I'm probably going to post my oz fishies up on the blog tomorrow, for those of you that want to see them, and the new fishie ideas contesty thingy.

I'll leave you with some pics of me, in the new release!

Hair-In the Rain-Mini Hunt Colour-Red Shine
Skin from {Frick}
Eyes from House of Ruin
Outfit from Weird Designs
Tutu from a place that isn't around(sorries!)
Boots from Wrong(was a group gift)

I tend to keep my looks simple, I don't have time to find the perfect earrings or bangles. I do do that for events, but my everyday just me being me, I try to look as good as I can, with a minimal amount of primmage.

Till next time!
