I'm blaming this on listening to too much Velvet Acid Christ and reading a plethora of Laurell K. Hamilton. I wanted to get this store done and out a lot sooner but, as always when I'm intent on getting something done, the universe seems to do everything in it's power to hinder me. There was a span of three weeks where my internet provider decided to take my DSL connection and bust it down to the speed of dial up and when a call was put in to report the problem they insisted nothing was wrong. That was the proverbial straw so the hubby switched providers but it took time for the new one to get hooked up.Okay...now that my whining is out of the way...there's some points I want to go over.
1) There's starting to be too many stores with "Kiss" popping up which creates confusion thus the rebrand
2) There's more natural packs - 2 browns, 2 reds, 2 blondes and a black n white. The other packs are more on the unnatural side but still a little more tame
3) All the hair is copy, mod, no transfer AND contains resizer scripts. I did this because A) I realize some of my customers have building skills and like to tweak while others are construction challenged :) and B) there's S.F.A. I can do about preventing talentless bottom feeders from copying which is what all honest content creators face. I would just hope someone tells me about it if they see it.
4) Hairoin is what I'm more comfortable doing. I really don't play well in the mainstream - I prefer tributaries :P
5) The existing Kiss styles will eventually reside in their own spot within Hairoin but won't be updated to the new textures. I may have moments of insanity (as my hubby likes to point out) but I'm not too keen on what would be the equivalent of driving over myself repeatedly with a tank.
On to the releases...
The style name of this one is Morgana and is the first in the Vampire clan series which is the Gangrel female. The color shown is Legion found in the Demon Pack.
This one is Sin which is shown in Witchwood found in the Wiccan Pack. The inspiration comes from the well known "Wrath" picture which I just love and couldn't resist the urge to create it.
This final one is called Tokyo Doll and was the reason I went to resizer scripts in the first place. After I got done with this one I thought, "If my customers have to try to adjust this one they're going to come looking for me with pitchforks and torches." This was definitely a challenge to get the pieces warped and twisted into the directions I wanted them to go so any of you brave souls that want to tweak this one by hand...take a copy first. The picture on the left is in the color Abyss found in the Dead Pack and the one on the right is Nebula which is found in the Astronomy Pack.One last thing...if anyone can recommend a good Goth/alternative internet radio station that won't get me kicked off my PG region and land me in Zindra please let me know.
Huggles :)
