It is getting more & more difficult to avoid events with GenAi being used to promote it. If you do commit by accident, simply don't participate in it again. What matters is that you're aware.

I pioneered the 1st NO-AI rules in an event. MO may expand, so sign up here:

I'm not very familiar with the market but I have an item I need to update to have accurate rigging for the chest.

What's the MOST POPULAR flat chest mod for the following bodies:
- Legacy Female
- eBody Reborn

Would very much appreciate the guidance, thank you!

NEO-JAPAN holds a special place in our hearts for years. After the redesign of our very FIRST item there, we made a SPECIAL URUSHI Texture HUD you can pick up to add to your SK3LE2 Arm.

Are probes behaving weird to you lately? It's been kind of wacky on firestorm and I'm trying to figure out if it's just me.

In collaboration w/ Teegle for DAPS OOAK auction with the community, we've put 2 horses: The Chinoiserie for the LIVE auction (28th Sept) & The Empyrean for the SILENT auction (ongoing/ends 24th Sept).

I want to make more machine skins but I really want to utilise the fact that because they're modeled from scratch, they can be in full PBR.

So I am wondering, are PBR appliers a thing for bodies yet? Should I update the Velderm?

Nothing but respect for Avi-Glam, which btw, I wear their eyes all the time.

In short: 2k textures for eyes is excessive, no one's going to sniff those veins 90% of the time, & the weight on your viewer isn't worth it.
About 2k Eyes 📢
I’ve been making eyes for years, and I’m here to save you from the 2K hype. Eyes are tiny, 1K is already more than enough. Jumping to 2K doesn’t make them prettier, it just makes SL heavier, slower, a...

Since this topic came up here's the WIP shots of Engine Room, Midnight Order, and Necrotize logos being made while I was consulting with the SLS team at the time.

Absolutely no AI was used here, in case anyone else was wondering.

Programs used:
Blender
Zbrush
Photoshop

That's correct, I made the logos for Engine Room, Midnight Order, and Necrotize. Here's some wips:

Chrono Trigger, my beloved.

I embraced the joy of storytelling in games here, and I actually rubbed all 3 of my braincells to try and get all the endings.

Sometimes I just make glasses to experiment with things, such as the cracked glass here. This isn't for any event, but it might be placed with a new line that have hinged/adjustable temples.

Once I'm set with the glass I can update a few old favourites.
