Into The Woods

“If a tree falls in the forest but nobody…”

Yea alright that really doesn’t fit with this at all. Besides the trees in the photo above. You all know the rest of it anyway. I took almost two days away from blogging to get married here in Second Life. It would figure that the timing of it would fall right as Skin Fair and Pose Fair are kicking off but that’s life right. But now that I’ve watched my bride walk down the aisle, and our bond has been sealed with rings and a kiss, it’s time to get back to business! (We’ll be sharing pictures and there will be a post about the wedding soon, I promise!)

Now I want to talk a little about Griffin. The new brand spankin’ new skin from -NIVARO- that is only available at Skin Fair 2016! It’s part of the new line of skins launched last month by Reishiprophet. It features the same 10 skin tones as Lucus (You can see him HERE if you’re interested). When I put this one on, the first thing I noticed was he looked a bit more rugged then Lucus. Which I loved, sometimes you want that instead of a the softer model type look. It’s an amazingly detailed skin and fits in perfectly alongside Lucus in my growing collection of skins.

I wanted to come up with a creative way to showcase Griffin’s striking look. I couldn’t go towards the obvious, well at least to me, style of a secret agent. I bid adieu to Mr. Bond already. Then I thought about my Canadian wife and her love of all things plaid. BOOM. Lumberjack. Perfect for that rugged man feel. It worked out great if I do say so myself. I’m using the Polarbear tone with the Slink appliers as it’s just right for my style. The Slink appliers are just so incredibly detailed down to the individual skin pores you can see. If you pick up Griffin don’t forget them. You will not regret it. You can purchase the Slink appliers at Skin Fair with Griffin or in the -NIVARO- main store. Before I go let me give you a quick rundown of what you get when you buy it. Credits are below for everything else!
