Viridian Vixen

Sometimes, the muse strikes in a most unusual way. 

This time it took me towards big, green and sexy.

The costume includes the body suit, gauntlets, stockings and Simply White boots. 

I have also included a custom shape and two skins.  It might not be easy being green, but it sure can be fun!

Available now on the Marketplace at Heroic Soles.

Sneak Peek

 

Since this is still a work in progress, you only get this tiny sneak peek at what I've been working on.  With luck, I'll have more in the near future.  [Fingers crossed]

The Amazing Amazon

Everyone loves a super heroine.  Here is my version of Wonder Woman.  Something different, something that is sexy but not overly revealing.  I couldn't find any appropriate hair in my inventory, so I went with something a little different, perhaps even edgier.  Available now on the Marketplace at Heroic Soles.

Dropping in for a moment

I'm not really back, but I have an opportunity to drop in for a moment.  I wanted to share some of what I've accomplished.

I played around in Google Sketchup.  Here are just some of the images that I exported from those efforts.  I think they'll make great backdrops for some of my Heroic Soles images. 

Life gets in the way...

I'll be out of town and out-of-world for the next two months or so.  I'll see you all when I get back.

Heroic Soles: Vicious Cape

Since the last set of capes had wonderful, heroic names, I figured it was time for one to have a less-than-heroic name.  My newest is called Vicious.  Three available options: Right shoulder, left shoulder or dual.  Each has the color-change and symbol-change that I like to include.

This cape is not yet available for purchase.  Coming soon (which really means late November or early December, sorry).

Blonde Bombshell: The Heroic Soles version 1.1 of Power Girl

After wearing the costume in-world for a little while, I decided to make some simple changes.  Here is the improved version of Power Girl.

It is available now at Heroic Soles on the Marketplace.

Blonde Bombshell: The Heroic Soles version of Power Girl

Today I got to work on creating a suitable version of Power Girl's costume.

After much jumping between AVPainter and GIMP, I came away with what I think is a good version of the costume.  This will become available on the Marketplace soon.

Costume consists of:
Belt:  Heroic Soles: Symbology Belt (modified, not yet available)
Cape:  Heroic Soles Cape Intrepid
Boots:  Heroic Soles: Blonde Bombshell Blue Special Edition
Costume:  Heroic Soles: Blonde Bombshell Costume (not yet available), includes bustier, shrug, lower, gloves and stockings (not shown)
Shape: by Barbara Teebrook

Simplicity Boots

I decided that a few more single color boots might be something people would be interested in.

I sat down and picked some colors that might appeal to many people and got to making some boots.

I made five pair of the zip boots in colors that everyone can use.

I also made five pair of the Bombshell boots.

They are only available in Heroic Soles on the Marketplace. 

Blonde Bombshell Color-change Boots

The full version of the Blonde Bombshell boots are now available in the Heroic Soles Marketplace shop.

These boots are the perfect addition to your costume collection. 

Color-change (63 different colors) on the boot, sole and cuff.  Millions of possibilities to match nearly any costume.

Scripted for resize, shine and color-change.  Easy menu-driven changes.

Blonde Bombshell Special Edition Boots

For those fans of Power Girl I have created these boots.

They come in a limited color-set that should work for many different costumes and really make that Power Girl costume special.

Through the scripted menu, you can select nine different blues for the boot, sole and cuff.  Five different gray-scale options are also available for the sole and cuff.

These will be boxed up today and available on the Marketplace at Heroic Soles. 

Heroic Soles: Symbology Belt!

I couldn't resist adding to the collection with these fun belts. 

Scripted to match the Symbology Boots and the Capes that came out yesterday they are the perfect addition to your super hero costume collection.  Pick up yours at Heroic Soles!

Heroic Soles: Capes!

Capes in three lengths.  With the same color and symbol change options we all love.

Coming soon! Available Now!

Heroic Soles: Masks!

I started playing around with making masks.  This is the first set I came up with.  Ten masks, all on the tattoo layer.  They will soon be available with Modify/Copy permissions so they can be changed to fit your mood and your super heroine costume.

Update!
I added these to the Marketplace on 21 October 2011.

Blonde Bombshell

Sometimes you just need a little more style than you can get out of a plain boot. 

After being completely annoyed with my inability to make a cuff that I really liked, I mentioned to my friend Pacific how frustrated I'd become.  This piqued her interest and she popped over to lend a hand.

Our combined efforts (okay, so my part was more like "make that part flare a little more, yeah, like that.") resulted in a cute little mesh cuff that I've added to my standard boot.  There aren't quite ready for prime-time, but I'm working on it.

Minions!

I decided to play with texturing some spandex yesterday.  The fruit of my labors brings you this great hooded suit perfect for villains, heroes and minions alike.   (Thank you, Lorn, for dressing up with me.)

Forgive me for the gratuitous close-ups, I want to share the texture of this suit.

I've paired the suit with the Symbology set and boots to complete the look.

Since the color seemed to wash out a little once uploaded, I'm going to go back to the editor and see if I can darken it a little more.

I created the suit using the tattoo layer which helps to keep all the seams lined up perfectly.  Applying the texture to shirt and pants layer just doesn't join up as nicely due to the way SL wraps the shirt texture around the avatar.

Everything is better...

... when you use full-bright and some glow!

I took entirely too many pictures to show you this floating lounge.  A few for morning.

One for midday.

And a couple for night so you can really appreciate all the glow!

I love being able to add a color-change option to things.
