#578 - Creatures, Dinkies and Tiny Avatars of the Fantasy Faire

The Faire is drawing to a close this weekend and I have been meaning to show you a few of the creatures available at the faire. Lots of the small avatars are very popular around the faire this year, giving the dinkies (Pawlice & Medics) a run for their cuteness! Here are only a few:
TINY - DINKIETAR  & DESIGNS BY ISAURA NA'VI DINKIE - NEYTIRI (FRONT & BACK)
I was nearly floored when I saw this avatar and started chasing them to get a better look and find out who had them around the faire! So cute! I don't do Dinkies much at all (or many tiny avatars) but I had to have this one! I happen to love AVATAR and actually used to RP on one of the Avatar themed sims in SL. There is a whole line of Dinkietar stuff at TINY. All made for the Dinkietars. The hair on the Na'vi Dinkie I bought from TINY. The makeups come with the Dinkietar from TINY too. Loin Cloth is sold separately.

The Neytiri outfit from Designs by Isaura does contain hair too. The avatar is from Designs by Isaura, you will need the White Dinkie Cat Avatar to create the Neytiri Dinkie Na'vi in addition to the kit that helps you create the Dinkie Na'vi. Jake is also available from this store too along with MANY other Dinkie designs. There is even a Cthulhu Dinkie! And as can be seen above, the two Na'vi do look slightly different in the color and designs. Both have tails with or without straps. Both stores are on the Sanguinely Garden sim.
PETITES FEMALE, GARDEN SPRITE BY FALLEN GODS INC.
This tiny avatar is the Fallen Gods Inc. Petite Garden Sprite female and there is also a male version available too and both are an RFL item in the Fallen Gods store on the Midas sim. I am still learning a lot about these tiny avatars, this is the Yabusaka petite avatar and that is about all I can tell you except that if you like Petites, I'd say take a look at this one. It has little shoulder buggies (buddies) included with it. Outfit, wings, antennae, hair and skin. Different heads with different ear options or none at all, normal legs and hoove cut legs, and an option of six different makeups for the face. So you get the whole package here.
HARSHLANDS - HOPEY WOODLET RFL AVATAR
These are the cutest! I know, I say that about them all, but still! It is! Another tiny avatar, this is the RFL offering version from Harshlands, Hopey the Woodlet Avatar. There is also a gacha here with other Woodlet Avatars. There are some dancing Woodlets in the store from the gacha so you can see how small they are. There are also some skeleton avatars in a gacha here too! This is one piece, just grab a full avatar alpha and add this one to yourself and you are done!
HARSHLANDS - ATHEREAL AVATAR FEMALE
Again from Harshlands and in male and female versions, are the Harshlands Athereal Avatars in RFL Purple. There is also a gacha of them in the store too with many colors to win. I've placed myself near my Straycat kitty to show how small this one is. This one IS tiiiiny!
NUTBUSTERZ - CHIBI NOODLE DRAGON AVATAR
And this has been all the rage at the faire too! Again! Soooo cute! The Nutbusterz - Chibi Noodle Dragon Avatars. There are so many variations of this avatar in the gacha here at the faire. Nutbusterz is in the Jinx store on Faireholm. There are lots of mods out there for this avatar. From Nutbusterz and other merchants. This one does include the avatar already textured. Includes a hud of gestures and an AO. The horns are separately purchased or you can play a gacha to get them. I found these on the marketplace. There is an RFL mod for this avatar from Folly, and here is a link to a flickr pic of that RFL mod.

Another one with lots of mods is this next one, the Nutbusterz - Happy Hippocampus Avatar.
NUTBUSTERZ - HAPPY HIPPOCAMPUS RFL MOD
And this one is not a tiny or small avatar, but it is low complexity for sure! I've seen quite a few of these and, when I first saw it, it also caught my eye. This is the Nutbusterz - Happy Hippocampus RFL mod. This is a special mod for the faire this year and a lovely avatar. I wished I could do video to show you how it moves. I wasn't going to take a water picture of it but after seeing another blogger take one, I had to try it out in the water. Of course it moves in the water or out of it with the same grace and beauty. Included is a hud of gestures and an AO for this avatar. And even though it is a mod, there is a copy of the avatar in the package so you have what you need to create this one all in one purchase.

I hope you've had a chance to visit the Fantasy Faire, as always, the lands are beautiful and there are more of them this year! And then there is the quest! Only a few days left to finish it though. I hope they extend it, but that may not be possible.

#577 - Spiritual Shrine

The Looking Glass has lots of RFL items for your landscaping and gardens. Create a lovely area to remember those loved ones who are no longer with us. Or just make a beautiful area for meditations to relax. I've taken some of these items and created a nice space for reminiscing or relaxing.
ITEMS FROM THE OLDE ATTIC & THE LOOKING GLASS
All these items (and more) are found at the Fantasy Faire this year. I am not sure if they will be available after the faire or not. But you have until May 5th to pick up what you'd like for your home or garden. First, in the center of the picture is the TLG - FF2019 Shrine - Spiritual. This does have a lot of parts to it, but they are all separate, so you can make the shrine be what you want and there is a place to add your own photo as a remembrance. Directly to the left of the Shrine is the TLG - The Shrine Tree Moonstone - Meteor Bright also found at the TLG FF2019 store.
THE OLDE ATTIC - IN OUR DARKEST HOUR, SEARCH FOR THE LIGHT
This is a beautiful memento of the faire, The Olde Attic - In Our Darkest Hour, Search For The Light. It has butterflies flitting about it and it glows radiantly across your garden. There are small birds perched on it and will compliment any landscape. Find The Olde Attic on the Light of Va'loth sim.
THE SHRINE TREE - BE THE SUNSHINE
If you need a place to sit and don't want to add chairs, this piece gives just that. Places for you to sit nearby. It has a few sits on the stones as seen here and a few ground sits around in front of it. This is also from The Looking Glass. TLG - The Shrine Tree Be The Sunshine. You can also find all the grasses, daisies and trees seen around it at TLG store on the The Shrine Tree sim.
A few items are from Cerridwen's Cauldron who is also at the Fantasy Faire on the Light of Va'loth sim.
And the little petite avatar seen here is from Fallen Gods - Garden Sprite Petite. This is a tiny avatar and includes the wings, body and skin with six options on the makeup. And a choice of ears, or you can add your own if you like. Find the Garden Sprite Petite Avatar on the Midas sim.

Fantasy Faire - Ends May 5th

And don't forget the Fantasy Faire Quest if you haven't started yet! Part 1 is on! Part 2 coming soon! Get the Hunt Hud at any sim landing area.

#576 - Visiting Faireholm

Visiting Faireholm where it is so sunny and bright, colorful, and a beautiful fountain at the landing point! I loved that! The garden courtyard where you can sit and enjoy is beautiful and peaceful! Then at the end of the garden, there is what appears to be a portal? A doorway perhaps to another dimension? But in this cheerful place? Why? And the opportunity presented itself to document this area, but I'm not going to give it all away...
WHYMSICAL MARKETPLACE - CHARLINDA DROW SKIN, MISHMASH FUSION - OPHELIA UNSEELIE GOWN - VIOLET
But yes, I did have to take the opportunity to show off the Mishmash Fusion - Ophelia Unseelie Gown. It looked so great (it is a beautiful dress!) with the Whymsical Marketplace - Charlinda Drow Skin. And both are found at the Fantasy Faire! I am wearing them on the Catwa Kittia and Maitreya Lara Mesh Body. Find Mishmash Fusion on Tensor's Flying Market and Whimsical Marketplace on the Twilight Spring sim.
ACIOS - EYES OF BAYOUNIMBA & DARK PASSIONS - BUTTERFLY FANTASY NAILS
These eyes! These Eyes! They are the Acios - Eyes of Bayounimba, and there are plenty of colors in this set! All piercing as seen above and will draw everyone's eyes to yours! There is a mesh set of eyes and hud included, or you can use the Omega hud to apply them to your own mesh eyes like I have here. Find Acios on the Bayounimba sim at the Fantasy Faire this year.
The Dark Passions - Butterfly Fantasy Nails includes 6 designs and have all that the fatpacks normally have as far as appliers. You get the Slink, Omega and Maitreya nail appliers that will apply to a number of bodies available. I thought these appropriate for the garden on Faireholm. And they so are! Find Dark Passions on the Twilight Spring sim at the faire.

The sunniness of Faireholm actually played tricks on my camera and the skin didn't actually look as drow toned as it really is. So here is another picture of the skin in better lighting so you can see the actual tone of the skin correctly. I think the new EEP windlights are messing with me sometimes, definitely during this first set of pictures!
The raised tattoo-like markings on my skin are from Birth, the 'Drums' Scarification tattoo. One of two RFL Scarifications offerings from Birth at the Fantasy Faire. Omega appliers included here and both the male and female versions are in each box. Find Birth on the Tensor's Flying Market sim. The Evie  Sandals here are from 1313 Mockingbird Lane and they are on the Nightshade Blossoms sim. There are many versions to choose from there.
HARSHLANDS - HER HIGH FAIRENESS - FF X NECKLACE GACHA - ULTRA RARE 
And finally, the necklace seen here is from the FF X Necklace Gacha - Her High Faireness Ultra Rare. Gorgeous isn't it? There are many more in the gacha and they are all quite unique, make sure to play this one! Find them at the Harshlands store at the Fantasy Faire on Light of Va'loth.

And now the Fantasy Faire Quest is open (part 1)! So come grab your hud at the landing points of whichever sim you land on and get going on the quest! Join the Fantasy Faire group to keep up with notices on the progress of the rest of the Quest. Good Luck!


Hope to see you around!

#575 - RYL's Oster Egg Store Hunt!

RYL Oster Egg Store Hunt is still going! You can still find all the prizes! And, guys if you are RYL fans, there are gifts in there for you too! There are four eggs to find in the store. You are looking for red eggs. Here is a preview of 2 of the ladies items:
RYL OSTER EGG STORE HUNT GIFT - SINGLE DESIGN HUD FOR THE COLORATO BIKINI 
The gifts are free at RYL, but you will need to already have (or purchase) the Colorato Bikini to use the gift hud. There are also 2 tattoo gifts, one seen above. Both apply to the belly area on both men and women. This is the Colorato Bikini that I had and the hud applies this design to that bikini. You can change it back with the original hud or just make sure to copy it before applying the new design. You can use this hud with any of the following Bikinis: RYL Bikini  Colorato Basic / RYL 2018 Soccer World Cup Basic / RYL Gor Bikini 2 Leopard.

This gorgeous lilac/purple skin is the Elemental - FF2019 RFL Skin currently at the Fantasy Faire (also in Pink). Applied using the Omega appliers on the Maitreya Lara Mesh body. Eye makeup and Lipsticks are also included. The skin will apply to any mesh body that is Omega compatible. You will find it on the Twilight Spring sim.
Fantasy Faire is also home to this lovely hairpin the kisetsuHana Kanzashi - Botan - Purple Fade. It is one out of a set of 3, in the RFL color. There are 6 different sets of these Japanese hair combs/pins (3 in each set) at the faire. You will find them on Tensor's Flying Market.
The Kraken Bracelet Rings you see snaking around my hands are also at the Fantasy Faire and are from AiShA, you can find them on the Faireholm sim.
RYL OSTER EGG STORE HUNT GIFT - SINGLE DESIGN HUD FOR THE COLORATO BIKINI 
Back to the hunt gifts! The tattoos will apply to many mesh bodies, both male and female, using the Omega applier included. Maitreya, Altamura and Belleza appliers also included.

The male gift is a hud that will work with the RYL 2018 Soccer World Cup Masculine Slip (briefs) (any version). And the tattoos will apply to the male bodies with the Omega applier. Sorry I can't show you those, I do not have those to demo for you. It is a swim brief in white with a similar design as see above on the tattoo.

So come and get 'em before it's all over on the 30th! Not too many days left but still plenty of time to find the 4 red eggs around the store!

#574 - Alternative Priestess Isobel Skin

In addition to the RFL Version of the Priest/Priestess Isobel Skin (see the last post), There are 3 more options and one of those is this .:Soul:. Priestess Isobel - Espresso skin
.:SOUL:. PRIESTESS ISOBEL - ESPRESSO SKIN (FEMALE)
The .:Soul:. Priestess Isobel - Espresso skin skin available at the .:Soul:. store at the Fantasy Faire this year. I think it's so beautiful without hair at all and, it reminded me of the time when I lost all my hair due to chemo treatments. One comment made to me at that time was that I looked like Zena(?) warrior princess. I didn't think much of it then, it made me chuckle though. And I had no idea who she was anyway(heard of her, but that was it). If you knew me, I am totally not a warrior (well, not before the breast cancer anyway!)! Not in the least! And this skin brought that memory back to me after I put it on. I hope you can create amazing looks with this skin, which is also available in the male version for the guys! Find .:Soul:. on the Light of Va'loth sim.

So then with that memory in my head, of course I am going to put on an outfit fit for a warrior! This is the Roped Passions - Ademe Warrior Outfit Purple RFL. You see it here on the Maitreya Lara Mesh body but it also includes sizes for both Slinks and Belleza Freya & Venus (circlet not included). You will find Roped Passions on the Bayounimba sim.

The Talevin's Designs - Crescent Circlet is resizable so you can fit it perfectly to your head, hair or not. This is a beautiful piece of jewelry and you will find this store on The Shrine Tree sim.

Above are the four versions in this package. The tattoo that is included darkens the markings already on the skin, and applies to the head and upper body. On the left you see the skin without the tattoo applied. Top Left is the Color version and Bottom Left is the Plain version. And directly to the right of each, you see the tattoo applied to the skin.
.:SOUL:. PRIESTESS ISOBEL - ESPRESSO SKIN (FEMALE) - REAR VIEW
Here's the rear view so you can see the markings on the back, without the tattoo applied.

DARK PASSIONS - MOON TOTEM NAILS (W/SLINK, MAITREYA & OMEGA APPLIERS)
These are the Dark Passions - Moon Totem nails (6 designs included) and they are a new release at the Fantasy Faire. I thought they went well with this full look so here they are! There are two new nail releases here at the faire. You can see the other set in post #570. The package includes Slink, Maitreya and Omega nail appliers. I have applied them to some mesh nails above using the Omega appliers. You will find Dark Passions on the Twilight Spring sim.
HARSHLANDS - FANTASY FAIRE X NECKLACE GACHA - SKELETON
And last, but not least, the Harshlands - Fantasy Faire X Necklace Gacha has a lot of different keepsake necklaces using the Fantasy Faire logo. There are many different ones in this set, see the full key here. Above is the Skeleton one. It is one of the commons. All of them are great and they get more and more fancy as you win the Uncommons, Rares and Ultrarares. And you guessed it, they are available at the Fantasy Faire from Harshlands on the Light of Va'loth sim.

There is so much to see at the Fantasy Faire and this year there are 16 sims to visit. Only 10 are shopping sims, all of them are amazing! If you haven't been, you should visit! I am sure you will not regret it. There are also tours daily at 5 PM SLT. I hope to run into you there!

#573 - Priestess Isobel

The priestess is up to something... let's hope it's not anything sinister. From her appearance, it could be anything! High in the clouds, closest to the gods she works her magic, calling out...let's hope to the gods, the benevolent ones.
ITEMS FROM NACHT, THE DARK FAE, RFC, SOUL, DREAMING THICKET & ROPED PASSIONS
Everything you will see in this post is available at the Fantasy Faire this year. The largest structure here are the ~by Nacht~ - Forax Mystic Cloisters. It is one piece and 42 prims land impact. And a matching Altar to add to it! ~by Nacht~ can be found on the Light of Va'loth sim.
THE DARK FAE - ETERNAL HUNGER *VIOLET* & RFC - ELVEN ARCH RFL & PORTAL
The Dark Fae's - Eternal Hunger *Violet* is just one of her RFL items in the TDF store on the Dept. of Discarded Curiosities at the faire.
Rainy Fey Creations or RFC, has created the Elven Arch RFL & Portal seen to the right of the dragon in this photo. And you can add coordinates to it up to 300m, you can also add your own teleport script if you prefer! RFC can be found on the Midas sim.
SOUL - PRIESTESS ISOBEL RFL SKIN, ROPED PASSIONS - NISHI SILKS OUTFIT
& DREAMING THICKET - DIANTHUS VEIL - IRIS GOLD
This gorgeous RFL skin is from .:Soul:. the Priestess Isobel RFL Edition Female skin. A male skin is also available! Big difference in this one from .:Soul:., there are no system skins in this package. This is only made for mesh bodies and this one comes with all the appliers you'll need for a variety of mesh bodies (including Omega appliers). Four color versions are available (including the RFL version shown). You will find .:Soul:. on the Light of Va'loth sim.
The Roped Passions - Nishi Silks Purple comes with all seen here from the neck down. The Necklace, Sleeves, Harness, Skirt, Pasties and Heels. You see it worn on the Maitreya Lara Mesh body. This is made for the Slinks and Maitreya mesh bodies only. You will find Roped Passions on the Bayounimba sim.
DREAMING THICKET - DIANTHUS VEIL - IRIS GOLD TRANSPARENT & ACIOS - EYES OF BAYOUNIMBA
The veil is the Dreaming Thicket - Dianthus Veil - Iris Gold Transparent. It fits nicely on my Catwa Kittia and you can adjust as needed. It includes both transparent and opaque versions. There are many versions available in the Dreaming Thicket store you will find on Tensors' Flying Market.
And finally, those piercing eyes are the {Acios} Eyes of Bayounimba! They come with a set of mesh eyes and hud and an Omega applier hud. And you can find them on the Bayounimba sim.
Hair is the Wasabi - Prudence Hair - Lunar Ombre hud (RFL version). Find Wasabi on the Midas sim!

Stay tuned for more to come! Come find these and many more items at the Fantasy Faire this year!

#572 - A Lone Moonlit Archway

Stumbled upon an archway that appears to be in a remote location of the forest. Plants are overgrown, but surprisingly well kept up by someone. It was still wonderfully well preserved!
SIMPLY SHELBY - FORGOTTEN ARCHWAY @ FANTASY FAIRE (THE LIGHT OF VALOTH)
This is the Simply Shelby's - Forgotten Archway. And it can be a beautiful addition to your garden landscaping. A lovely piece with wildflowers growing in the middle.

SIMPLY SHELBY - FORGOTTEN ARCHWAY @ FANTASY FAIRE (THE LIGHT OF VALOTH)
The Simply Shelby's - Forgotten Archway can be found at the Fantasy Faire on The Light of Va'loth sim along with many other items for your home and garden. Check her out!

The foliage around the Forgotten Archway is also from another place you can find more amazing landscaping for your sim or gardens, Cerridwen's Cauldron. [CC] is also found on the The Light of Va'loth.

Come see the Fairelands and what you can find among them!
