Mindful – Nightshade 2024 – Sasy Scarborough

Sometimes at the end of a ghoulish day, you have to decompose…I mean decompress. Even Monsters have to take some me time, and I am doing just that, with some rosewater dipped roses on my eyes – it stings like fire but that is how I roll – A nice aperitif before dinner , a bit of wolfsbane mixed with cucumber water, hits the spot, can’t drink blood all the time you know, it gets boring. Now not so new to some of you, is that I took some pieces of furniture from Nightshade event, and made them bigger, oh so much bugger, the awesome prints behind me are wall art, with wooden frames, and look lovely regular sized as a three piece set – hung separately. But when enlarged they look fabulous. Thankfully they are not flammable, I threw some stuff The Mummy gave me on them, and now they take all kinds of spills and can sit close to flames, very potent stuff – if I tell my Mummy that I just used Mummy in a blog post and was not meaning her, but something wrapped up in cloth she is going to be jealous, but she is awesome, I send her pics of my pics all the time, she is not such a fan of the ones were I look scary though.
The Candles are superb work, they come in a huge array of options, small clumps, single sets, larger clumps etc, and they are also mod, so you can resize as needed. They are HUD controlled with 16 colours to choose from and each of them are gorgeous, they are PBR but also have Blinn Phong textures baked in, so you are covered either way. The large crystal ball behind them is also a Nightshade decor item, they come in various colours and again mod, so you can make them smaller for a side table or large as a statement piece. I so love MOD items.

Funnily enough the swing chair I am sitting in comes nothing like this, it was the perfect sit and pose for what I was wearing and holding, but the texture of it was very colourful and did not suit, but not only was it mod, it was such a great texture uv that I was able to just throw on an old leather texture I had in my inventory and change the repeats, and it worked out perfectly, thanks FoxCity for also making your props mod. This whole look actually came about because of the slippers, they were just so cute, and again the idea of a Monster like person, just living their best SLives needed me to just hang and chill for the evening. The particles you see about me, are so awesome also, they have these scary hands that come up out of the mist, I almost spilled my drink. The Soul Reaper set is actually an update to an existing set by Coles Corner, they have updated it to deal with the rather different lighting we have now with PBR, so if you already have it you can just redeliver, and if you don’t it is awesome.

I keep poking fun at people when I see big spiders, alluding to the fact that it must be an Australian item etc. It is not as scary as many make out down here, I see so much said on the internet that makes me wonder where exactly these people think we live. Because I personally saw more wild animals just out and about when I was in the U.S than I have ever seen in Australia. So when I saw this dress at Nightshade, I knew it was the one for me to again have a stab at the silly, but with some tongue. The teeth also ended up a theme, with these crazy stitches and teeth tattoos, not just tattoo layers but materials assigned for different bodies by applier, it is wild, they are so freaky, I decided that I must be some kind of Ghoulish Dental Nurse off duty. Nightshade is full of fun and exciting items to play with, so make sure you check it out before it ends on the 28th of October 2024.
