Many of you know that I like to build in SL, for me is relaxing and a way to create things!!. When I came to the first time to Second Life I had no idea how to build, shapes for me were confusing and how to match them to each other was like to mix oil and water. With the time I met a girl who was a great builder and watching her how she did wonderful things and for my side practicing here and there I learned a lil bit. Yes it is funny but at the same time you need patience, precision, some artistic view and to know how to move your camera!. Cally my friend has a great fight with it LOL.
A few weeks ago I was thinking if I could build a vase to decorate houses. Honestly it was not easy because I had no idea how to do it. First of all you visualize the entire vase but when you go to your edit display and see your shapes the first phrase is 'and now? what the heck?' hahaha, yeah!!, there are only a few basic shapes!!!: a cube, sphere, cylinder, ring and tore. You can see more there but they come from the past 5 shapes (I wont talk about sculpts). When you build it is necessary to play with shapes at the beginning, that is when you are learning and seeing what each thing is, and later with a lil bit of imagination you spend hours doing your stuff.
Here is the first vase with mexican texture. I took an old picture from a mural and set it on it. It looks cute, with color and it could be in any house who likes this kind of designs. Mexican stuff is warm, friendly and gives a great sensation of home, your own home.
This one is with stucco. It is a lovely one and you can set tropical plants on it. Looks great in beaches, tikki houses, gardens or folklorics ones. If you click on it you will appreciate the texture it is really great!!.
The next two vases are mexican styles too but the difference is the design. One is in pink the other in blue. They look really great where you have a chimney, flowers, plants, in one word: with the nature. They are my first vases and I love them.
If anyone has an idea of any other texture that is cute or could go fine with these vases you can tell me. I like to learn about other cultures too so I would love to try it!!.
I will build more designs soon, probably with a japanese texture and other with a middle age one. It is great to do decorations so you need to ask!!.
That's all folks!!
