Chopine’s – Grand Opening!

March 28, 2010 - 12:43 am No Comments

The day has finally come!

I would like to invite you to the Grand Opening of the new store!

The official opening will take place on Sunday, the 28th of March, 2010, from 9.30SLT to 12.00 SLT.
At 10.00 SLT, we’ll have the Metaverse Shakespeare Company as guests, who will entertain us with a play.
We’ll give gift cards and free shoes away at the opening!

The store is already up and running right now, there’s just some freebies missing, which I will put in place just before the opening. So don’t hesitate to already have a look before the Grand Opening!

I hope you will like Chopine’s – the work of more than four months went into the store and the shoes :-)

Here’s the SLURL to the new store:

Best wishes,
Chopine Aura

Chopine’s morphing 1-prim-bed

March 10, 2010 - 6:12 am 2 Comments

This bed is actually a single prim only!
However, even IF it is one prim only, it can morph into three different appearances – this is controlled with a blue menu, after clicking the bed.

Have a tidily draped bed; an undone, ‘thrown’ bed or lie in the bed – the comforter will morph into the appearance you desire, and the entire bed will STILL be just one prim. This is NOT a temp rezzer, it’s a morphing, single prim sculpted bed with built-in poses.

Single prim furniture

March 6, 2010 - 1:04 am No Comments

While waiting for the shoe scripts to get finished, I entertained myself with creating some single prim furniture.

Each of these furniture pieces is one single prim only. They (currently, but that is subject to change!) come without any animations, but they’re copy and mod, so you can add your own:

        

They’re available as fat packs on XStreet, as pictured above, and also as singles at my inworld sculptie main store.

Also, I’ve created some single prim sculptie draped shelves, which work perfectly with the above shown furniture in a house as well as in stores.

In case you fail to believe that this is a single prim, I recommend taking a look at the following picture – click to enlarge:

The shelf is available in no less than 40 different material combinations (combinations of materials for shelf + drape) at my inworld sculptie SL main store:

A single prim bed, which can morph between various stages of ’neatly draped’ to ’someone’s lying in it’, and which will come with a custom sleep animation AND of course in several materials (all matching the ones already shown above!) will also soon be available; I’m already working on it – here’s a preview in Blender:

Here’s what the bed looks like in SL, with me lying in it:

Hope you like my low prim SecondLife furniture :-)
