#Virtual Hobbies

[totallynotapsychic]

anyway i was just told to get a hobby but that doesnt actually sound like a terrible idea. reminded me of that one part in life lessons with uramichi oniisan when theyre talking about how adults whose only hobby is consuming media like television and video games are just trying to distract themselves from the fact they have nothing to live for or something like that.

so uh

what actual hobby do i take up that isnt tv or video games

DEAD MAN

Kurt Hansen

Keep throwin' stones for while you can I know myself and who I am There are stories in these callused hands That not a soul will ever hear

Dead Man - David Kushner

[evilluminati]

In the night, I hear 'em talk The coldest story ever told Somewhere far along this road, he lost his soul To a woman so heartless

Good for you all.... Wonderful !!!!

Day Mechanic & Night Racer

Model pics for cargo pants mod, my collab with veegee 💕 When Enzo stays with his clan, he's a mechanic with his father. And during work hours, he can repair/modify his race car. After loosing his McLaren by Jay, he needed a new car ... He had to put his ego aside and ask for his help, which meant driving the McLaren to take the magnificent Quadra Type-66 from the corpo Sampson. Enzo modified his new toy, especially with an overloaded engine. It was this superb mod that decided his new car! Some nights, Enzolino races in different places. He's been racing since he was 16, it's his job and it's how he makes money for his clan. He's talented, even though he's often on the road far from his family. And when he's in NC, Jay sometimes lends him Baby, the McLaren 💕

[Subject Interview: Avi]

NICKNAME: I've acquired many over my time with Arsaka, seldom savory. Arsaka's Guard Dog I may be, but it would be wise to heed the fangs.

GENDER: Male

STAR SIGN: Surely you don't believe in that. It's Leo, but if you're basing your assesment on me based on the planets, than I won't dissuade you.

HEIGHT: 6'0, 183cm

ORIENTATION: I fail to see how this is relevant.

NATIONALITY/ETHNICITY: Japanese-American.

FAVE FRUIT: I enjoy persimmon, particularly fresh, although dried is also acceptable. Small, sweet clementines are also something I would consider a favorite.

FAVE SEASON: Winter, if I'm reqired to choose. I've never minded the cold, and I enjoy the silence the snow brings. The summer heat is something I've never relished, particularly in the city where the smog seems to hang over the city in a blanket.

FAVE FLOWER: If you're attempting a bribe, rest assured I've noticed. Nevertheless, it's lotus flowers.

FAVE SCENT: Sea salt, clean linen, and mint

COFFEE, TEA, HOT CHOCOLATE: I prefer tea, and strong coffee, with real milk. I don't drink synth-scop.

AVERAGE HOURS OF SLEEP: Enough to perform to optimum capacity.

DOG OR CAT PERSON: Neither--cats are fickle, and dogs needy. If I'm required to pick one, it would be cats, if only because they are more self-sufficient.

DREAM TRIP: I'm well-traveled, as pertains to my career, but Europe and it's museums is something I can appreciate, preferably a place where the food is also excellent.

FAVE FICTIONAL CHARACTER: Reality is often more intriguing than fiction.

NUMBER OF BLANKETS THEY SLEEP WITH: One, a heavy comforter, or a sheet in the summer.

RANDOM FACT: I detest having my time wasted.

Is that all? I have an appointment that requires my attention, and am quite busy.

The Astronomy Outfits

When I first started making outfits for Dianna in Second Life, it wasn't very long before she asked for something to do with Astronomy.

It may seem counterintuitive that someone who is totally Blind in Real Life would want to dress her 3D avatar up in pictures of nebula and comets and stuff. She's always been fascinated by space, reads books by astronauts, listens to astronomy podcasts, takes in as much as she can. She cannot see the stars, but she definitely yearns for them.

So, out of the many outfits I have created for her in SL, several use images from NASA and similar sources.

Just gonna go in alphabetical order here:

The California Nebula! I do recall this was one of the earlier ones where I was trying to get the image to actually wrap around on the skirt. Which is tricky. There's over 20 panels in each skirt, and you have to adjust the offset on each one juuuuust so.

The Cashew Nebula. This is one of my early attempts--I may try redoing it. It looks pretty, and does fun things when she twirls, but I want to see what else I could do in terms of spacing it around the skirt.

Cassiopeia-A. This is one of the earliest designs, though it has aged well: she wore it dancing at The Cellar on Tuesday, to several compliments. The skirt is not one I constructed it: it's a full-permission ballgown that I bought from Priim Magic and retextured.

Comet Hyakutake! This uses this image right here and while it is an early attempt, it has aged very well indeed! When she twirls one way, it flares white, and when she twirls the opposite, it turns darker. It's a lot of fun to watch on the dance floor.

Again, the skirt is not one I constructed, but Priim Magic's work. That's important to note: making those things takes a lot of math, and I relied on Priim's stuff until I found the old Loop-Rezzer script and adapted it. Flexi-skirts are challenging to make.

Jupiter! Specifically some false-color images of Jupiter's bands. My most recent creation here, wasn't going for too fancy.

Orion's Nebula. Another one from last summer when I was figuring out how to map the textures onto these skirts.

The Veil Nebula. I remember this was a lot of work to get lined up properly! Effect was worth it, though. Another Priim Magic gown that I retextured.

So that's the Astronomy Outfits--so far! I have some other pictures that I may experiment with soon.

Remember, folks: some men take their ladies clothes shopping, but Real Men try them on for her while she is at work. ;)
