Plum powder

 

Of course, making digital clothes mostly benefits avatars and such.  It's a great thing that Second Life has a near bottomless pit of apparel to choose from.  I suppose it would be both inconvenient and slow to give up the simple sketch on a piece of paper, but don't forget that the Internet is a digital medium.  So the next top model is logically an avatar, right?  So scan that sketch into a wireframe, and send some digital clothes to me so I can have Mary's avatar wear them.  If they're good enough.


Ha!  I was right about the plum powder's making a sauce.  I made a sauce yesterday for my fried noodles, and it was a great success.  Very tasty, and easy on the stomach too.  If you were to browse the Chinese grocery store you might come across Hoisin sauce, which is a plum sauce.  You may recognize the flavor on your rice paper wraps, I think they always use Hoisin sauce for that stuff.  But the plum sauce I made yesterday is to match the flavor of India style fried noodles.

Mary's outfit today is mostly made of old clothing layers for system avatars, at least 10 years ago.  Mary's avatar is a mesh avatar, which is more realistic and better looking.  Anyway, these clothing layers I used today are akin to body paint, thus you can make out the nipples and such.  Plus they are lower in detail, not due to a limitation of the clothing layer but just lazy programming.  Looks good though, I think.  But the skirt is a mesh skirt.  If you were to search for that skirt on Marketplace, you would find going for 0 to 250 Lindens.  I guess it comes from a template that anyone can use and reuse.  Even though the skirt is everywhere for sale or for free, it's still a great looking skirt.
