  1. I made a medieval templars headress a while back. While its not crispinettes..they are related *shrugs* Sometimes I make custom work(depends on wether I have time),contact me inworld so we can talk about it (Sophia Trefusis) -Trefusis Designs- Templars
  2. Sounds like a great idea I would ask you to review my shop...but I dont know if I make the kinds of items you would like to review.Style blogs are normally about more modern clothing. I create historical clothing(mostly 18th century but also other eras) Crushed Petals -18th century gown- Jonquil -18th century Court gown- Bel Monde -Early 1900s Dress- Clara -1920s Flapper Dress- Let me know if you are interested
  3. I understand. Ive built up my reputation as a designer under 3 years or so,never had to think about making lindens fast.Im not an expert of the SL buisness world in the least..but i say start small,like selling on marketplace. Then you advertise the h*ll out of it. Wearing your creations as much as you can,putting in your profile that you design clothes etc. Costume work is one way to go too...but even for that you need examples of what kind of clothes you can make. What kind of clothes do you create?
  4. One tip: dont try to bend yourself over to try to cater to what you think people will like/buy. That wont get you far in my opinion.Seeing as youre a photographer from before I assume you are an artist.Do you want to continue being artist or do you want to make lindens quickly? I think thats what you have to decide. I vote for being an artist.Its more fun to create something you feel like and have a passion for. There is always a niche open for orginality in SL
  5. A short machinima I shot on a whim during a friends rp event at Versailles in SL. Music is by 18th century composer Mondonville - Sonata for Harpsichord Violin in C - Mov. 13
  6. Hello I am looking for some robot/doll animations or some that could pass as that. I know there are some AO-s on marketplace with doll and robot animations,but ive tried them out and none was quite right so now Im trying to put together an AO with separate animations I bought. The effect im going for is elegant with occasional technical glitches... Got this spinning head animation for example ;) There was a animation shop inworld that had some robot dances (not the domo arigato mr roboto dance) but I cant remember the name for the life of me...even though I took an LM :( It was a pretty big store from what I can remember. If someone got any suggestions I would be very grateful :)
  7. The folks at Snickerdoodle are throwing a fun Halloween Candy hunt! The hunt will start Friday October 7th and run until October 31st at midnight. So come on down and hunt for candies! :-) Snickerdoodle Halloween Hunt starts today
  8. We rp at the same places so I am bound to run into her and her broken english but still demanding IM-s Her way of acting made me really really annoyed. She wanted something from me...I could have done without her measly amount of lindens. I would never try to copy another designers work.Sometimes people will come to me and ask for a dress "just like that designers" Makes you wonder why they wont ask that one. Ive had the opposite problem actually...with people copying my designs >_< Wich was really silly of them because the era we rp in is a pretty tight-knit community with people who dont stand for that kind of stuff. Well most of them anyway--sometimes a rotten apple gets in Thankfully I had enough friends to alert me to that theft
  9. I had an encounter with a rude customer... Maybe this isnt the right forum. But I have to let it out. I met this person walking around one of my shops. She approached me and started saying "she owned most of my gowns" Of course I thanked her for supporting my work. Then she asked if she could comission a gown from me and I said that she should tell me what she wanted..if it was something id get inspired by. She walked me over to another designers stall and stated she wanted a gown that looked similar to "that picture" And I was told to make it as real looking as i could. I wondered if i was the right person for the job as it seemed she doubted my abilities. "No" The more i kept thinking of it the more offended I got :( People have been known to pay 1500-2000 L for my custom work. And that were cases of the customers allowing me to resell those items. I work really hard at my textures and create them from scratch. I didnt know what to say...I said I would do it. Thinking I would make it and put it up for sale and then she could by from the vendor. Then she demanded an extra item,an acessorie. I said I wasnt sure Id be able to make it in one week. I have other ongoing projects and there was simply no way I could make it in such a short time. She kept insisting "one week" So i made an exuse I "have to go meet a friend" Today she IM me with a complaint about a gown she bought from me "its too dark" and mention of the sum she had to pay :((((( Now I may come off as unhelpful and unprofessional.. But the last time I encountered a girl like this she ended up IM-ing me constantly with every small complaint...and copyboted my skirt. Anyone recognize this?
  10. Ah pardon my mistake >_< Of course unicorns are welcome everywhere...
  11. Fun videos Well done! I couldnt help but notice that horse in both machinimas.Must be a very popular horse to get invited to so many parties.lol
  12. Im looking for a girl to be in my machinima...on account of people who were supposed to be in it,has failed to show up online. I am on a deadline :/ and simply cant hold out for the off chance they "might" log on. The theme of the machinima is a gothic story,some would even say a bit artsy. I will need you to be online circa 10 AM SLT. Friday No nudity. No furries. IM Sophia Trefusis for questions and more info...or just reply in this thread :)
  13. Hello, I am looking for a shocked/disbelief animation. Not a static one mind you. I can find a screaming one that has the" hands around face" pose i want on marketplace but I would like one without the screaming mouth...:/ Thankful for any help in finding a pose like that.
  14. Hello Im looking for a homestead to rent preferably an island with terraforming rights. No neighbours. Im going to use it for shooting and setting up props for machinima so privacy is vital. Prim allowance 400-800 Price preferably low in the range of 1000-3000,but suitabilty for my purposes more important. Anyone got a suggestion?
  15. Mess? lolol I thought i was being clever There is a filmyou know with that title- minus the mesh part.and add a Virginia Woolf.
  16. (Not sure if i should post this here...but its a building topic so..) How many can use Blender/Maya/other? I cant do it,I confess. Will mesh sink my buisness? It might. Will this stop me from creating? It wont. The truth is mesh is complicated to make and even more troublesome to upload. How do I know? I made a simple mesh and went to a mesh upload spot. Despite me having payment on file and answering that test sucessfully..It still wouldnt allow for an upload. I predict a long adjustment time for mesh to become widespread.Us "regular" people sure cant use it so far.. Who is afraid of mesh? Let me hear your thoughts about the matter :)
  17. Thank you for the suggestion People are always (well mostly) so helpful in the SL community
  18. Thanks for the offer **Only uploaded images may be used in postings**://secondlife.i.lithium.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-happy.gif" border="0" alt=":smileyhappy:" title="Smiley Happy" /> I´ll visit sometime soon. Still working out the scenes and props i need
  19. Thank you for your answer Yes ive noticed not many put a "go ahead" notice in their about land. I took pretty lightly on this until i wanted to film at a french artsy sim and got sent an IM "that machinima was prohibited" And then I read more on the web...and got nervous about the topic. Ill definetely check Aught out!
  20. Hello I wonder if you could help me out with some slurls :) Does anyone know where to find a long stretch of beach where its allowed to film a machinima? (not a tropical beach!) Ive been a little bit cautious about making machinima since I read some sims forbid them...not wanting to upset the simowners if they should happen to view a clip... Thank you in advance :)
  21. I make historical and vintage(ish) clothes and use MP to sell my designs. Some people find it handier to shop there than to visit my shops. When I saw you could add related items to your objects page I thought "neat,customers will be able to see my avatars acessories (hair-skin-jewelry) I often put a nc with these details. But his would simplify things even more. Only...it doesnt work. Does someone knows how to fix this? Thank you No wonder it didnt work >_< Well it could have been good...thanks
