Bare Rose Style


Another favorite new outfit for my Crystal Fae Avatar from Fallen Gods - this one from the AMAZING Bare Rose: ::: B@R ::: Petite Battle Axe! This awesome warrior uniform comes in four different colour variations, with the giant-ass battle-axe that can be worn on your back or in you hand.


I paired it with these incredible FREE Drangonhunter Horns from XOPH. These are a free gift as part of the Twisted Fall Hunt 2012. They're incredibly detailed and beautifully sculpted and go so well with the Battle Axe outfit. They're colour changeable with a menu driven script, and come with some amazing devilish particle special effects and sound effects.

It takes awhile to find the gift at XOPH - you have to play a mini-hunt clicking on idols and gathering keywords that you then say in a phrase in local chat to a prize-giving dude-God-bot, but it's sooooo worth it.


I added some beautiful new eyes to my sexy-elf avatar. I wanted something more magical and higher-contrast than the more subdued eyes that come with the Fallen Gods Crystal Fae avatar. These -{The Attic}- Mesh Color Changeable Eyes - Petite Edition (Wicked Male) Eyes are exactly what I was looking for! They're colour changeable with the included hud and you can save colours as favourites for different avatars. Luckily the standard aqua suits my little green guy perfectly, so I didn't have to adjust a thing. There are also two different option - with glow or without - of course I chose to wear the glowing version.

Teeny Tiny Jungle Warrior


I've been looking for outfits to wear on my fantabulous new Petite Crytals fae avatar - I wanted a mix of traditional period elvish clothing and some contemporary outfits. My first favourite that I found was this beautiful rugged ensemble from ~Elvenbreath~: The Little Kenanan for Petites



This is exactly what I was looking for - something in forest colours with a slightly primitive feel. It comes with awesome prim accessories on the belt like a knife, and rope which make my little elf look like a bit of a bad-ass. The textures used are gorgeous and I especially love the acid green hue of tunic.




The oufit is versatile as it can be worn without the under layer, making my little fairy look like a true barbarian warrior:





I've been wearing this on some hunts lately and really love how authentically elven it looks!

Tiny Green Hottie


I was planning on highlighting some current gay hotspots in Second Life that I've bookmarked but as usual I got distracted by something shiny in-world - this time it was an eeeeeeevil fortune teller game at Fallen Gods Inc. Marketplace Link / In-World SLurl.

I spent days at this location - one of my all-time favourite stores for fantasy skins, shape and accessories - trying to win a beautiful dark opalesque fantasy skin. I was a fun time chatting with the other assorted players there trying to figure out the correct way to win the prize - it turned out we had to both sit at the fortune teller, have it assign us a number than then find a an avatar with a corresponding number or percentage that would add up to 100%. It took me many trips back to the store but I finally won the skin with a helpful friendly avatar lady late one night.

I haven't even unpacked the skin yet, as I've been utterly enchanted with a new avatar I picked up when I got bored with the Fortune Teller game and started wandering around Fallen Gods: The PETITES Male Crystal Fae Tiny avatar.


I've fallen in love with the little green fairy guy. It's 100% mesh, and it turns out it's perfect for high-lag areas like Fallen Gods stuffed full of players trying to win a gorgeous skin. The reduced size of the avatar seems to reduce the draw weight considerably, so it's Sim-friendly. This is the first time I've ever worn a Petite avatar - it's kinda fun being so much smaller than everybody else in Second Life and navigating from the perspective of a 2-foot hight elf!



I've always been a sucker for fae and elven myths, design and iconography, so this is right up my alley. The introduction of full-mesh avatars has made it possible for us to wear beautifully-crafted and sculpted tiny avatars. These new Petites tinys by Yabusaka look to be inspired by real-world porcelain collectors dolls, with the same delicate serene features. Fallen Gods has created their own custom version of the Yabusaka Petite avatar, with the Crystals range in other-worldly iridescent hues of green, blue and violet with dragon-fly like wings, darker more intensely coloured Draco fae with bat-like wings, and the more subdued Elven line with more human skin-tones (and less-revealing clothing).


As this is a full mesh avatar I can't alter it's shape in any way, so I instead customized it to my taste with a few more purchases from other shops. Luckily there's a ton of creators out there designing new clothing, hair, wings, and much more for these beautiful new tiny avatars - many of which can be found at the Petite Avatar Kingdom Market.

I bought some new mesh butterfly wings that I was able to customize by adding some colour and glow with Second Life's basic build/edit tools, some hair from Wasabi Pills, some dead-sexy vines from Animations Rising, and a fun petites Animation Overider from Creative Insanity, to which I added some awesome animated flying/hovering/sitting animations from Kuso that I already had in my inventory.

EDIT: Kuso actually has a full Flying Pixie AO with gorgeous animated poses. It's a bit girly for me but some of the animated stands are perfect for a flying fairy so I bought some of them to add to my customized AO. Kuso is fantastic by the way - beautiful graceful animated poses all for only 10L$ each!
