Ou-ouh-lou-ouuuh

Finally something to add to the avatars section ! Kyrsten Jigsaw’s tiny avatar is like a chocolate leather inflatable owl. You can have it for 345L at rcbg.

If you know of other places with awesome, well-made avatars I haven’t featured here, do consider dropping me a note to let me know about it, using the contact form.

Eve

Thora Charron, one of the brilliant designers at LeLutka, has made a really stunning avatar, Eve, as her contribution to this ongoing Rezzable fashion event entitled “The future is now“. It caught my eye straight away when I went sampling, and putting it on, it won me over. I wish there were more avatars of this quality, and with this finish, around the grid. Well, I bet there must be some, but I guess I may just not have crossed paths with enough of them yet. Anyway, I’m glad of this event if only because it has given the opportunity to a creator with Thora’s expertise and high standards to produce something remarkable outside of her field of predilection, for those ones in SL to whom fantasy, sci-fi and role-play appeal more than fashion.

I don’t know if Eve will still be available for retail after the event, but I hope it will be ! Also, the avatar includes a basic set of AOs with a walk and a stand, and a HUD to customise the appearance of the tail, if you choose to wear it.

I wanted to take a few quick snaps with a little bit of attitude, and used Chance Greatrex’s pose set called “WHITE”. They were perfect, thank you, Chance !

Voodoo-dolls

Shai Delacroix from Casa Del Shai made these tiny voodoo dolls avatars for Halloween, and they’re really cute ! You can grab them at her mainstore or on xstreet for 350L a pop.

[Update] Lainy Voom made a cool little machinima with these avatars.

JH-RobotsMore outstanding creations by Johanick Hutchinson. 3000L on xstreet, that’s right, but they each come full perm so that you can customise your female or male robot to your heart’s content!

Pictures snagged from the xstreet listings.

Cuprum

CuprumI just ran into a friend of Cutea Benelli at Grim Bros. where he was hanging out, politely greeting visitors, and he was wearing this amazing avatar, Cuprum, the male version of which Cutea had made at his request. I think this may be my favourite creation of hers so far — that is, as far as avatars and costumes in the store go, it is hard to keep track of everything she does, she is always wearing something amazing and different every time I see her ! Well, the face on him was so stunning, I had to spontaneously spirit him away for a couple of snaps. And here it is, I could just stare and stare… This, ladies, is a hunk.

Mongo koko

Naxos just showed me this machinima of Ripped Winkler’s newest avatar, a giant gorilla. The video itself is magnificently done, but I was really wowed by the avatar alone as well. It looks like a lot of work into it, as the gorilla offers a lot of features, including carrying another avatar in your hand! I’ll probably give in and go get it someday, but I won’t rush it, as it’s 4000L!

Ray Caesar…

Ray-CaesarAt Hotel Dare, you can currently buy avatars reproducing the characters from Ray Caesar’s artworks, “Decent“, “Companion“, “L’accord d’amour” and “Blackbird“. Brilliant.

These avatars are the collaborative work of Marie Lauridsen, Katat0nik Pidgeon, Leetah Moxie and Autumn Hykova, at the request of Hotel Dare curator Gattina Dumpling.

Inflatable

inflatableWhen I last went to Curio Obscura for the Ghostly Lady, I found this new avatar that I hadn’t been aware of before. The Inflatable Woman is absolutely fun and awesome. She comes with three skirt options, two hairs, and you can customise the colours of every element via touch menu, as well as her facial expressions. She also squeaks when walking or moving, can be deflated or inflated and has different walking animations for either state. There’s also a ‘huggable’ feature, but I haven’t figured it out, so I don’t know.

Anyway, it’s really, really fun to wear and walk around in, and a new favourite!
