EveDeLOmbre Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Hi everyone. I've been in and out of SL since 2007. This time around I'm finding it really difficult to find the type of building that I'm looking for. On the MP it's taking me days to trawl through thousands of listings only to discover most of them don't have in world stores for me to view their designs. I won't buy anything unless I can purchase a demo OR I can see it rezzed in world. I know that you can't recommend specific designers in the forum here, but I was wondering if there was a blog which might help me? Or an in world group where I can join to find out about current building designers? Thanks for any help in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are able to suggest specific designers in this subforum, as per the participation guidelines. I'd be interested to hear suggestions too. Trompe Loeil had an industrial style sky box recently, I don't know if they have it rezzed in world though, it was released at an event. Here is a good blog for releases of furniture and buildings, you can search it https://www.lovetodecoratesl.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have a look for Trompe LOeil's skybox, if it's still available. Thank you so much for suggesting that blog, at least I have somewhere to start now.

Delaney Andrew Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Hi Eve! Trompe makes one https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Trompe-Loeil-Chatham-Loft-Skybox-Light-mesh/6262843 No demo but it's only L$250 I like Domineaux Effect and she has one https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/TDE-Industrial-Loft-Skybox/6354649 Skye is also a good one here https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Skye-Warehouse-Loft-SkyBox-100-Mesh/10048501 If you're looking for a cleaner look, Diamandis has one https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Diamandis-Industrial-Loft-Skybox/9585191 Those are some of my "go-to" creators for builds. Good luck in your search! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of other fantastic buildings but I could only find the vendor on the wall for it, not the LM in the notecard in order to view it in world.

I have been struggling to find the right skybox too and had been thinking of using a regular industrial style prefab that I already have (Meshworx Urban Oasis) then surrounding it with her city lights... and doing some other stuff to make it like a skybox, I dunno! 12 hours ago, EveDeLOmbre said: I couldn't find the Warehouse to view.

I am sure that if you message Chic Aeon she will either tell you where you can view it, or rez it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animats Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 If you want something unusual, go to Hangars Liquides, find a taxi stand, and go to "The Squat". That's available on Marketplace, although hard to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chic Aeon Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Well I was going to recommend the Chatham skybox (originally a free item for Facebook -- EDIT: just one of the colors I believe -Tt is older but I really like it (small though )). Meanwhile I will check the warehouse link as I know it is up there LOL. OK. I swear I put it somewhere but I lost it (moved not too long ago). So here is a new copy and Marketplace fixed :D. This is the large version. A smaller one not in a rezbox is also in the pack. Thanks for letting me know -- even if in a roundabout way :D. And thanks for the plug too. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/LEA6/104/190/753 Edited June 1, 2018 by Chic Aeon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephanie Misfit Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Alright, I have my industrial / urban skybox all decided! I am using my existing prefab and I purchased Chic Aeon's metro subway with the 64m city night surround (which is a really cool low LI subway in a big skybox, you can choose different sizes). Filling it in with the city skyscrapers as background and a few urban things, and leaving some open space for simple building tasks and rezzing photo backgrounds.

Hope you enjoy. The original (prim) version of that build was made for an art installation and machinima OH so very long ago. I had a great time building it. Then remade a several years later in mesh which is nicer for sure :D. I just went back and watched that SEVEN year old video. We have come a LONG way - LOL. Fun to remember.
