More great loot from the Make Him Over Hunt 4 - this time actual clothes! LOL!
First up, this great outfit from #9 Gentleman Store. I was just thinking yesterday that I was going to go looking for some nice black jeans and then I unpacked this and there they were! Great timing. Included in this gift: jeans with sculpted cuffs, sharp pinstripe jacket, belt and beautiful sunglasses. (I added the longsleeve white shirt, ear-plugs and shoes from my inventory.
I love the basic black - it looks great with my wings! I don't have very many black clothes in my closet so this is a welcome addition.
This is another of those I-can't-believe-its-free gifts, from exquisite jewelry designer #10 ROZOREGALIA. A beautiful unisex bracelet that goes great with both the outfits I unpacked today.
This is another cool outfit that just happened to be another all-black ensemble I unpacked today - this one from #17 Leather Bound.
Based on all the frisky hard-core sex toys and artwork at this store I was expecting something a bit more Leather-Daddy in this gift, but this was actually a nice surprise; an understated pair of leather pants and tee with contrasting sheer panels. Really quite nice and goes well with the accessories I was already wearing.
I'm going to be so well-dressed by the time I finish this hunt. I'm going to have to start hanging-out in classier joints!
Some more fun FREE stuff from the Make Him Over Hunt 4:
From my favourite underwear shop - #25 Vitamen - comes this fun set of tan-lines, available as clothing layers as well as the new alpha tattoo layers for a nice reminder of the long days of summer that are drawing to a close.
I can definitely see myself wearing these during the upcoming long, dreary winter months of perpetual rain to lift my spirits and remind me of warmer days!
In the photo above I'm also wearing this month's monthly freebie from Vitamen - the Japanese Thong - just find the poster and click to receive, no group subscription required. I love the fine quality of Vitamen's styles - they're always so beautifully made.
Next some stylish new glasses from shop #26 Kumaki Glasses Style. These are great cat's-eye inspired frames accented with a small, subtle rhinestone and a fantastic animation that allows you to wear them pushed up on your forehead. Very cool.
At first I was worried they wouldn't fit on my big fat head, but they are editable so I was able to easily and quickly stretch them to fit.
And finally, a really beautiful vine and leaves jungle-themed outfit from #7 Rising Animations - The Rising Tribal Gaius Outfit. The level of detail on this fun little bit-of-nothing is quite incredible, considering how few prims the designer Miro must have been working with to create this sexy look. The vines and leaves are surprisingly realistic with leaves that shift and sway when you move, and the generous leaf-covered prim pouch is beautifully textured.
It's such a fantastic little outfit - I can't believe it's free! I can't wait to wear it to a jungle-themed dance-party so I can play Tarzan. lol!
So far I've just been blogging teeny tiny items from the MHOH4, I'll try to take some shots of actual clothes today. I had tried to do the hunt in order from the starting point but the lag was so bad that I started jumping to stores out-of-order. Now I'm going to start doing them consecutively now that the traffic has died down a couple of days after the hunt started.
I'm back in Second Life after an absence caused by lots of work and Second Life's latest Viewer 2 update, which just wouldn't play well with my system and kept me from playing completely - but I recently discovered the awesome new Phoenix viewer and I'm able to connect again. Yay!
I returned just in-time for my favourite hunt - The Make Him Over Hunt 4! This is the best hunt for guys in Second Life, with tonnes of fantastic designers creating all kinds of great gifts for us hunters - there's163 shops in this amazing hunt. I still haven't unpacked all the great loot from the last one!
I figure if I take pictures of all the prizes maybe it'll force me to get organized and tackle my out-of-control inventory so I'm going to share some of the photos I take here on Muliversal.
First up, some fun undies from #26 - Concrete Flowers.
I'm a total freak for fun underwear so these are right up my alley. I'm never going to wear pants again! :)
I'll blog some more goodies later this week...
I just had to share this awesome new Werewolf avatar I picked up from Icewolf's Gym. It's freakin FANTASTIC!!!
It's called the 1st Act Werewolf, and as soon as I saw it I had to have it. It's a bit pricey at $1950 Lindens, but it's completely worth it. It's available in a wide range of coat colours in both male and female versions, and it comes with a hud that enables you to walk in either a biped or a quadreped state and change facial expressions. You can howl at the moon, snarl at startled fellow residents, change the eye colour to practically anything you please - and the muzzle even moves in unison with the Voice chat.
The only thing it was missing were man-nipples, so I made some. LOL! I textured them with rhino skin to match my nose and pad pads. Now it's all sexy-scary. :P

Wow, it's been ages since I've been around here - entirely due to computer problems keeping me from logging-on to Second Life.
I've been using a one-year-old Windows laptop for playing in SL and it started to go kablooey on me - no matter what program I'd use to access SL it would crash after about 20 minutes - and eventually they just stop loading completely - they'd crash right on start-up - so I just got incredibly frustrated and stopped using this (stupid Windoze) computer at all, went back to peaceful and much-less-aggravating Mac-land and found other things to occupy my free time.
Then we had another of our cold grey 'summer' weekends here in Cloud-City a couple of weeks ago, so I looked at this laptop sitting on the desk mocking me and thought I'd try to connect again. I deleted every single Second Life viewer off my system, ran a bunch of system optimizing programs that claimed to be sprucing things up in the background, and then downloaded the newest version of Emerald viewer and the new Second Life viewer version 2.0 and three hours later - and I'm back in business baby!! WHOO!
This new Second Life viewer is pretty damn awesome. Stuff seems to load much faster, the docked windows are a HUGE and much needed improvement, and most importantly it's much more stable on my leotarded system.
So after all that work I needed to find a sunny place to relax - I hit the new search function to find a happy gay beach and this is where I ended up: Paradise Gay Beach.
This is a beautifully-designed clothing optional gay beach with lots of relaxing places to hang out and lounge and watch all the cute guy avatars walking around in various states of undress. It was the perfect place to hang out in my new, short blond-guy shape.
I'm a bit too shy to do the naked sun-tanning thing in RL very often, so its a bit of a kick to be able to do it in SL. If you ever want to check out the nekkid gay scene in Second Life Paradise Gay Beach is most-definitely worth checking out!
