A hybrid can withstand these things

A hybrid can withstand these things.
My heart can beat with bricks and strings.
My ARTPOP could mean anything.

Futurewave has to be one of the best fair-type builds I’ve been to in a long time. Simply-built, easy-to-navigate, and relatively lag-free, it also looks amazing (tip from me: if you run Firestorm, use the Ambient Grey  preset). I’ve stuck with the  saturated blue shades of the build for this photoshoot (with some slightly less-enhanced images toward the end).

Note: Futurewave ends on February 23rd 2014.

Of course, the first place I legged it to was VRSION KONVERT, for this amazing outfit. I also bought the gloves, but wanted to use Slink hands here, as I also had some great nail appliers.

I’m busy chatting to Daros in Skype right now, so I can’t focus on typing much (priorities, my sartorial darlings *g*) so I’m just giving you a boatload of pics, with credits at the end. And maybe a little bit of text here and there ;-)

The body bag is a new group freebie from Gabriel. Skell’s wearing the plain black version, but you get three kinds in the pack.

Love the leather ends to these pants. Be warned: you may have difficulty finding footwear that fits both the style of the pants and the actual skinniness of the cuff. These shoe versions of some older boots by Lapointe & Bastchild were about the 60th pair I tried on (no kidding), and they worked perfectly.

Okay, yeah; I did kind of go nuts with the images today. Deal ;-)

There’s more. Here are some true-colour studio shots for you, because that outfit is actually dark grey, not blue.

Yes, that’s a decorative eyebrow, from Glam Affair. Got ’em in white, too.

Back view, showing the bag:

Current favourite ring from Maxi Gossamer, plus nail appliers from By Snow.

Love these pants. And yes, the boots aren’t quite  right for the outfit (I would have preferred the NeurolaB Runner Boots, but those were too wide and high) but they work well enough, and are excellent boots in themselves.
