“Fairy Wishes” by Bambi Chicque

Finally back from surviving a month long class; my first review for catching up had to

be quite important to several Designers and Events!!!!

Just as I hopped into SL yesterday morning early to select these incredible items to wear

and pose with, my 1st IM of the day was my neice, Tiff……”Aunt Tan? How do you do a

Blue Screen in SL?” So, in speaking a little and reminding her I used a Green Screen (in

real) for a family portrait I did with their family several years ago…it was time for a little

photoshop lesson!! Next….another IM from Runa sending me her 2 recent ads she made

and asking me which I preferred; hence IM#2 was a little photoshop talk…..

Next….another IM from Solas sending me 4 review packs along with her new ads;

hence IM#3 was a little more photoshop talk!!

With all that chatter and myself setting up – I decided to do a Blue Screen inworld for

this shot; actually I took 4 photos and blended………..

I’ve been using a Blue/Green Screen in my real world photography business for years

and have made many, many, many of my SL photographs utilizing this as well.

So I am dedicating this photo to 3 of my favorite friends in SL to show how

wonderfully these types of photos can turn out!!!

Soften those edges!!!

Do a lot of blending!!!

Use about 10% erase in certain areas

until you get the look and depth you are trying to achieve!

And????

5 hours later after all that chat….adding the pose to a pose ball….

flipping crazy of Souzou Eien’s newest fantasy items…more more more!!

I found that having friends in SL is a wonderful thing, yes, and at the same time

sure takes up a lot of your time! LOL

hugzzzzzz, dear Ladies!

“Join Me Afresh New Season” by Bambi Chicque

September brings Autumn with luscious falling leaves of many colors,

a change not only in season but with wardrobe too!

I was asked to add my “Gothicus Falls” male and femeale outfits to the

current Audace Sirens “Harvest” Event. Lots of fabulous well-known

Designers are showing there, including 7 Deadly S{k}ins! Gachas, specials

and gorgeous fall decor & clothing!

I pulled out 7 Deadly S{k}ins’ “Esmee v1 Taupe” to wear with this photo

since she looks so lovely as a curious Elven!

What Next created this adorable “Orchard Decor” Set and by the time Blade

hopped on to Black Tulip’s “Dreamers Couples Male Pose” we were ready

to chomp away on the apples spread out with “Afresh New Season”!

So, yes, I took his hand!

∻⊰҉♡҉⊱∻

I took this picture days ago and at last have a chance to post

since I have FINALLY completed a class that was required

for my work in real!!

Certificate in the mail…..Yeah me!

Back to blogging and designing!

Scorpion Tales

“Scorpion Tales” by Bambi Chicque

In a world of dragons, mermaids, ghosts, and magic,

Anything can happen.

But there is fire within the scorpion love story.

She waits in patience

Crawls just slightly

Raises her tail with defense

And stings when she is hurt.

Dare not scorch the soul of a scorpion

For one day the prickle shall burn

Where your wound will never heal

Wishing you never poured harm

Toward any of her balanced ways.

I grabbed this scorpion tail from ND/MD a while ago and thought now is the time

to finally wear it!! It comes with a Color HUD and the tail is full of spins!

Legendaire has been creating some amazing items for some

amazing sales recently; one must go join her group and take part of these

wicked sales!! Her “Talking Body” has to be one of my favorites where the

meshiness is oozing in greatness!!

I love anything Zibska….I think I’ve said that before….

You will find this striking “Hyperion A Hair” at the current Hair Fair 2015;

which also comes with a huge array of colors in a HUD!

Hope I stung ya just enough that you’ll race off for your own goodies!

Young Brave

“Young Brave” by Bambi Chicque

Part of my family heritage and blood is Native American Indian.

I have always loved anything native, feathered, wolfy & spiritual.

As I was preparing this photo and selected “Yeha-Noha” to listen to,

it brought back memories of when I was a Moderator and Citizen of

SmallWorlds creating missions with close friends and selecting music for

our storylines! This is a song I had selected for a mission that still sets there,

fully written, mostly decorated – but the tasks are waiting for my final touch!

I would love to jump in some day and surprise everyone with hopes it would

make, yet again, a SmallWorlds Featured Mission!

But, sighs……….I spend all my virtual time in

SecondLife now and at least I can bring my audience and followers some

native “oh-wa oh-wa’s” with my photography!

∻⊰҉回҉⊱∻

Yeha-Noha (Wishes of Happiness and Prosperity)
AH-UH NAYAH OH-WA OH-WA
SHON-DAY OH-WA OH-WA
SHON-DAY CAN-NON NON NOHA (NOHA)

And to continue with my photo!

As you know the annual Hair Fair 2015 is up and running as of today!

Every booth and Creator has a special gift for everyone when you visit.

I fell in love with Cheveux’s “F071” Male Hair and thought it would be perfect

for a “Young Brave”!

The inspiration for this photo came from SWaGGa with his newest items

for Indie TeePee Event! Shortie’s BoHo Necklace and Bracelets are perfect in

colors, textures and design!

Superb, Shortie!

When Horses Fly

“When Horses Fly” by Bambi Chicque

The Year Of Our Lord 1554: Among the fjords of Bergen, one might capture a

glimpse of merhorses flying among the birds or gliding atop

the waves and tides of the azure seas…

Fast forward to 1846 where James Wilson and James Boehner sailed along the shores

of St. Margaret’s Bay in Nova Scotia when they spotted a great merhorse

with a flowing mane…..

Sometime in 1913 another observation by a steamer crew sat back in awe as one

appeared alongside with a smooth, yet furry seal-like body

reeling along the ocean’s mist….

And now in 2015 you can enjoy a prodigious scene with wondrous

flying horses at my SL12B BamPu Legacies & The SL Photographers Exhibit !!

Be sure to click the stars for a superb flying effect in front of the

turquoise Merhorse and elven bridge!

Enjoy! Bambi

Sabbian Paine has been capturing the world of Second Life through his lens since

early 2009 when he was introduced to the world of Second Life photography.

What started out as a hobby for this real life artist soon became a big passion for Sabbian.

SL quickly became a new platform of self expression allowing a limitless

source of atmospheres and backdrops to his work which he often refers to being

submersed in a world filled with three dimensional art.

In addition to being constantly inspired by the creations SL has to offer,

music and emotions

play a big driving force behind in Sabbian’s work.

Each piece shares the title or a lyric of a song which inspired it

and is meant to be experienced with the song playing like a soundtrack to that image.

Sabbian has exhibited in various galleries across the grid including his first solo

exhibition in 2013 at at the Vampre Cultural Centre in his family sim of Transylvania

where he now has his main gallery. He has also exhibited at Nitroglobus,

The Rose Gallery, The Dominion Gallery, Beguiled Spring Art Walk, Gallery Assis,

Galeries de Sinne, Galerie des Machines, Isole Art Gallery, The Gallery at Somerton,

Pessoa Gallery, Artists 4 SL, Crossworld’s Gallery and Branwen Arts..

Sabbian’s work has also been featured in a number of SL magazines

including a RL online publication.

SL12B Dreaming

June 18, 2015

“SL12B Dreaming” by Bambi Chicque

SL Community Celebration is upon us once again honoring our 12^th birthday year!

Doors will open June 21 through June 28, 2015.

KEEP UP TO DATE: SL12B

“What Dreams May Come” is this year’s theme!

As I have been building there and flying around shooting photos for the SL12B Guide,

I am more than impressed with everyone’s envision of this

topic which touches us all in a melody of motifs!

We all love the multitude of fantasy faires, themed events, unique and different installment builds

along with visiting sims where the creator has peak elements of techy concoctions to present!

So, when we visit any of the SL Community Birthday Celebrations,

strolling along the sidewalks or riding the pod,

we spend hours upon hours filling our eyes, cameras and mind with the most

imaginative inventions where the Creator’s dream came alive!

You will find representation of role-play sims, universities, information centers,

charities, entertainment venues, art installments & galleries, scientific displays,

designers of many types

exhibiting some of their creations available at their shops

….and more and more and more!

∻⊰♡ ⊱∻

This is an event where you will find our newcomers roaming with eagerness to learn,

creators and builders visiting one another’s exhibits and chatting along

with compliments and ideas, buyers and freebie hunters

looking for something odd or new or a souvenir to rez out

(all gifts at SL12B are free) and awe over,

bloggers snapping away for photos, writers writing away,

video experts shooting live footage,

entertainers galore at their scheduled events and wondering around afterwards to

say “howdy” to visitors, etc, etc, etc…..

the list flies on and on and dreams ever more!

∻⊰♡ ⊱∻

It’s my opinion that this event stands out with utmost importance

for all the citizens of Second Life

and reveals vast levels of reasons we are all here and spend so much time designing

who we want to be in this vibrant virtual world.

∻⊰♡ ⊱∻∻⊰♡ ⊱∻∻⊰♡ ⊱∻

Now a little rambling for me…and you…..

I personally prefer to dress a little more in casual fashion or jean-style attire while here;

taking me away from my endless role-play and exotic inventory folders.

Reason??

Well, I feel more comfortable and I prefer to do my part to keep the scripts and lag down.

This isn’t an event I want to go to and show off myself,

I want to see what everyone else is showing off!

∻⊰♡ ⊱∻

AVOID LAG – Just a little hint:

Once the celebration opens and with all the mixed ingredients, materials, scripts, textures,

music and huge crowds of avis…..there will be lag.

What can you do?

First off, close out everything!

Close out all browser windows, close out any programs you have running,

turn your preferences way down, turn off your mic,

wear non-scripted articles of clothing (why not go with just layered items?),

make sure you have X’d out all your messages that are lingering,

only have one inventory available (not two),

delete any landmarks that are hovering at the top of your screen and, in fact,

try to go just invisible!

Can you imagine how much this would help if everyone did this?

∻⊰♡ ⊱∻

So, now for my photo presenting my rendition of SL12B ~ 12-Year Birthday!….

The Annex sent this fashionable “Carrie” Skirt in Bird Of Paradise texturing just on time

for me to search for something comfy and casual; yet dressy enough for my photo!

(Actually, I am thrilled with it!)

I took the scripts out of my hair and found some non-scripted pumps to wear!

If you have ever been a Builder or part of the SL12B Team/Entertainment/Press

at any of the SL Celebrations, you know that at first peak

you see an endless and limitless row of empty sims after sims stretching out to dreamland.

The clouds pace and puff above you traveling around and around

until you finally start to see the spectacle of items

going up and up and up daily…..

and finally…..

towers and towers of intelligence, colors and complexity appear!

That’s why I thought I would give you a little “SL12B Dreaming” peak at what that’s like!

Enjoy! xoxo Bambi

My Best Friend’s Wedding

Filed under: ! REVIEWS ! Enticing Events, Faires, Hunts & More

May 15, 2013

Some people come into our lives for a while, leave footprints on our hearts and we are never the same.

The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart.

One of my dearest and best friends, Harley, and business partner in Second Life vowed to marry and cherish forever my truly dear and lovely friend, Simba !

The Forever Vow ~ Harley & Simba ~ May 7, 2013

It was an exciting morning in all the preparation for this grand wedding.

I selected an exquisite pink gown that I had picked up at the Hollywood 2013 Event by FA Creations since Simba told me her colours would be pink. I quickly dressed and…….

Painting Pink Petals

I sent my radar IM to Harley and asked if he had picked out a tuxedo yet. He had and, of course, Simba had already approved…..BUT….

I knew that one of my favorite designers of Second Life had quite an impeccable selection of tuxedos and asked if he wanted me to send a limo over to visit Adam EdelStein’s grand shop

and see if he preferred something else that would knock him off his grooming feet.

With the quickening of a TP we landed and he was in awe. My gift to Harley was this magnificent “OLLERUS” prince style ensemble including the royal boots.

Simba popped in and was much delighted as well. (I designed and created an amazing Gazebo set up for Simba, but will post pictures of this at a later date.)

Gorgeous Groom ~ Harley

We arrived at the Chapel “Houses of Jana ~ Chaton” with much grace and anticipation to mingle among the enchanted guests.

Chapel Of Love ~ Gown by FA Creations

There was a sense of love and friendship in the air while friends found their seats and quietly listened to the music and breathtaking wedding vows pronounced by the Minister, Jana.

Vapor appeared in a spunky and delightful mood:

Ahhhh! The Vapor!

While Slayer appeared in an aurora of mystery and respect:

Stealthy Slayer

I captivated dozens upon dozens of luscious pix of the beautiful bride, Simba, but selected this particular photograph to adorn her with florals as beautiful as she.

Her delicious wedding gown is the creation of Celeste Weddings “Sony eLee SAB White” by Vivians Artizar

It flowed in harmony amid the surrounding gala as she sparkled like a Queen.

You can see here in the photograph a glimpse of Simba’s lovely Maid of Honour, Nurs:

Charisma Of Simba

The reception was more exciting than one can imagine with the wedding cake, follies and dancing. Most especially fun was the tossing of the bouquet:

Fortune Bouquet ~ Gown by Celeste Weddings

FORTUNE BOUQUET POEM

“If friends were flowers, you would be the perfect rose.

So catch my bouquet, my special friend, hold it close to your heart.

And always remember me, your friend, and we’ll never be apart.”

Since the wedding, I visit Harley & Simba’s chalet often to enjoy games and chatting while we storm up ideas for the business. Designing stages are still a work in progress, but time will tell where we land!

I hope you enjoyed this segment with the wedding details. It was an exciting day for me and I was honored to be a part of their special day.

Congratulations Harley & Simba! Love you!

HUNT HUNT HUNT ~ Easter Style!

Filed under: ! REVIEWS ! Enticing Events, Faires, Hunts & More

April 1, 2013

Taking a break from designing I had to “hop” on the Easter Hunt Taxi’s flashing before my eyes….Wheeew! My favorite designers and sims secured a favorable collection of items ranging from attire, accessories, shoes, furnishings, decor, heaps of Easter goodies, poses & props! What more could anyone ask for?

Hunts include: BOUDOIR Easter Egg Hunt, MadPeas “The Lost Treasure Of The Inca Warrior”, LeeZu! Easter Egg Hunt, Evil Bunny Hunt 3 2013, and Happy Hippo’s Easter Hunt (and they always always have awesome fun stuff!) ….Oh Bunnies….were we busy!

Catch up with the Evil Bunny future hunts here: http://evilbunnyhunt.blogspot.com/ and also Boudoir’s ever growing collections here: http://vitabela-vitabela.blogspot.com/ I am also listing a few more designer’s blogs of interest pertaining to the hunts below: emo-tions http://emo-tions-in-sl.blogspot.com/ and LeeZu!’s http://lbd-hotblog.blogspot.com/

Easter Chicque ~ LeeZu! Hunt 2013

Our first taxi stop was introduced to me by emo-tions with a list of 12 eggs to hunt at LeeZu! ( [LeeZu!] Flagship Store, To The Nines (145, 128, 22) ). She has the store designed just like my favorite department stores in real; easy to flow and fly to the various segments! Above I am wearing a few of my finds:

MINA HAIR ~ Babette, LeeZu! Ice Blue Eyes Deep Reflections, Natty Hat & Pin (I renamed and repositioned these for myself), LeeZu! Sandy’s Petticoat (Yellow Polka Dot Dress), LionSkins “Silka” Skin Pale LB ~ All found at LeeZu!’s Hunt!

I am also wearing: MADRID Solo Eye MakeUp Lying Eyes purchased at FASHION FOR LIFE 2013, !go! Easter Basket (full of cute chicques!!) found at the Happy Hippo’s 2013 Easter Egg Hunt, CNY Lovers Knot Necklace (a gift from my previous retired Business Associate, Gopu) and finally Elf Eyelashes purchased at BOUDOIR!

Bunny Hop Ballet

I LOVE POSES & PROPS! You can imagine my excitement when I flew back to BamPu Legacies Enigmacious Merhaven Photo Studio to unpack “rezzzzzzzzzz” all my hunt rewards and found this joyful outfit from the collections of the following: Evil Bunny Hunt 3 ROOK POSES RP Good Eggs Pose & Prop ~ (Love the bird cage!!), TOXIC HIGH’s Midnight Outfit EBH3, Bunny Ballet Shoes by {Isis} “Bellec” EBH3. I am also wearing: BOUDOIR’s Sweet Iris Hair I purchased some time back since I love her designs for posing so much, MADRID SOLO Lying Eyes Pink MakeUp purchased at Fashion For Life and REDGRAVE Vampire Eyelashes – that I wear just about 24/7!!

LeeZu! Hunt Ensemble

It appears the “ballet” style glides perfectly with the Easter theme, so I had to show you another sweet set I found at Evil Bunny Hunt 3: RDB’s Ballerina which includes the Ballet Slippers, Easter Basket, Rose, Necklace, Purple Eyes and Dress! I had just purchased the pose from //elephante pose// and couldn’t wait to use “Part Of Me #1”! I am also wearing “Elinor” Mauve Black Hair by Earth & Skye which they have on sale at the moment for 99Linden, MADRID’ SOLO Lying Eyes Pink MakeUp purchased at Fashion For Life and REDGRAVE Vampire Eyelashes.

I Love My BOUDOIR Balloons!

I can always count on BOUDOIR during any holiday to spice my life up! She really outdid herself this time for the elaborate accessories in her Boudoir Easter Egg hunt! Pictured above is Boudoir’s Chicken Hat (cute cute cute!!), My Easter Balloons, Narcissus Spring Wreath for head and Easter Shoes. In the background you see my newly found bunny friend laying eggs all over my sim; awarded during the Happy Hippo Easter Egg Hunt: “Never-Ending” Bunny by Ferd Frederix the Blue Adept.

Boudoir Easter Hunt 2013

More from Boudoir! Wowzie I love her Wearable Giant Easter Egg (and it floats you a bit!), My Easter Stuff – yes all sorts of goodies in the bag, Easter Spring Parasol, Chicken Hat and Narcissus Spring Wreath. My lovely yellow dress is from Earth & Skye “Summer Breeze Gold” new for her Easter Gift (free!), saDazzleEyes Harlequin2 “Beach Glass”, DiVA’s “Asami” Hair, JCNY Lover’s Knot Necklace, and MADRID SOLO “Show Designs “Insanity Plea” Gold purchased at Fashion For Life. ……And the bunny is still laying eggs all around me!

We Found The Golden Eggs! ~ EBH3 2013

In case you are wondering about the Evil Bunny Hunt 3 event ~ There were over 80 creators participating in this great hunt and once you obtain all your loot ~ you found your way to the final destination where all THE GOLDEN EGGS were placed for even more amazing gifts!! I’ll be unpacking eggs forever! My new business associate and close at heart friend, Harley, and I had a lot of amusing moments while searching for these treasures….although I looked like his little girl~ ROFL ~ I like to change into various avatars and clothing when I visit sims. Am I the only one that changes hair, makeup, clothes, shoes, etc about 3 or 4 times a day??

~~*~~ And yes….one more for now….~~*~~

MadPea Hunt ~ The Lost Treasure Of The Inca Warrior

This one is on-going for us at the moment. We started the MadPea Hunt ~ The Lost Treasure Of The Inca Warrior and will keep you posted with great photography and “soon to be acquired” astonishing treasures! You can find the hints and more information here: http://madpea.blogspot.com/

As I said before, I have the utmost respect for and remain loyal to my fellow designers and creators in Second Life! I have designed clothing and jewelry/fashion accessories in real for many years! So, designing and creating in Second Life comes somewhat second nature to me and I feel right at home while at BamPu Legacies Building Lab AND taking a few breaks now and then to HUNT, EXPLORE, PHOTOGRAPH, VISIT FRIENDS and DANCE! Feel free to send me a note card in-world if you have any questions or requests!

Happy Hunting!
