Finally I upgraded my alt to mesh head and mesh body.

2018-05-02_alt-upgrade.thumb.jpg.2c223120c27cecc159fbf78faf5e6159.jpg

Head: Akeruka - Anniversary Group Gift "Maia" Bento Head (just released as a group gift)
Body: Altamura - "Valentina" full body, head hidden (free group gift)
Skins: For head and body, the skins what came with them.
Hair: DrLife - "Lui" flexi hair (ancient free hair xD)
Top and Jacket: From library - "Shawna" avatar's Top & Jacket
Pants: HashTag - Ripped Capri jeans
Shoes: KC - Hedy high heels, slink shoes fit altamura body (free group gift)

Everything free except the group join fee 150 L$ for Akeruka group.
How amazingly easy it is to create nice avatar without spending lots of money. :)
The best thing, avatar complexity: 33074 only - Yay!

You might remember a few weeks ago, Skell asked for victims volunteers to contribute to his blog. Well, I jumped at the chance, and today my piece was published! Here's a couple of teasers...

The full thing is over here.

 

Great write-up.  My only suggestion is that you make the store mentions be links, either in the story or the full credits or both.  Since the link for Paragon isn't in the article, can you post a SLURL so I can go check out those visors -- for some reason, I am not finding it in search.

The skins matched?

There is visible seam in the neck when using different skin on the head and body.

However for Altamura body there is Omega installer available (50 L$).
And Akeruka head has body appliers (Belleza, Maitreya, Slink, and Omega) for Akeruka skins (the same what the head uses).
So I guess using the same skin on the head and body will solve the neck seam problem. I haven't tried that yet.

Skell suggested that I didn't do that, since he usually doesn't in his own posts. As long as the items are searchable, either inworld or in the MP he preferred me to leave them not as links.

The visor is here: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Bluecross-PARAGON-Visor-Bluecross/1580587

Aaand I realised that I made a mistake - Paragon is the name of the item, not the brand! oops.

Thanks.  I searched Paragon inworld, but didn't think to search in on the MP

My alt's latest update using all mesh (6 June 2018).

2018-06-06_wenly.thumb.jpg.1e647bc32dc1b46f08799cae5acfe685.jpg

Head: AK Deluxe - Maia bento
Body: Altamura - Valentina bento full body (its head hidden)
Skins: Head's default skin and body's default skin on
Hair: Lamb - Cupid rigged mesh hair
Dress: TSR Designs - Lisa dress (dress for Maitreya body works well on Valentina body)
Shoes: KC - Hedy heels (Valentina body feet are compatible with Slink shoes)

Finding well fitting clothes for Valentina body is a bit challenging thing. Some Maitreya clothes fit, some not. Same with Slink Physique clothes. Sometimes mesh clothes made for system avatar work.
