The Phantom Rose Mer Nation has a new region - Phantom Rose Medieval! The Underwater Kingdom of Lyonesse, is located on this new 5x5 Medieval/Fantasy region. Hop via the Akrotiri beacon and then use the Mer Portal (medieval) to access via underwater.

The latest Mer area for the Grid: The Underwater Kingdom of Lyonesse! There is a free gift of a shark rider, along with temp-rez shark riders to use on the region. Bring some friends and compete at the Colosseum in Seahorse Chariot races. 6 colors, who will win? You can also use the Colosseum for Mer swim racing, unlimited number of competitors!

Medieval Marketplace and majestic Monastery! The Monastery is truly an outstanding build by Tenshi Engel; from its imposing portcullis entry, thru its many rooms with unique textures and gold highlights, all backed with Byzantine Music, it is worth the trip! Land at the dock and make your way thru the busy Marketplace and over the moat.

Knight's Landing is the welcome area for Phantom Rose Medieval region. Here you will find starter role play outfits, some gifts, important information about the grid and the region, Free region gifts information and map of region. There is a regional teleporter to the main areas, but we encourage you to use a free boat from the docks, to enhance your experience. The Landing has a small medieval fair with dancing and a functional maypole.

Many of you know I have a lot of statues in my store, but I didn't set out originally to offer them. A few years ago I wanted one for a build I was doing at the time and found one on the Kitely Market. Wanting to add materials, I replaced the base texture with a marble and realized that all that was left was an amorphous blob that barely resembled the original statue. So I decided to see if there was a better way. The resulting workflow is pictured. I start out with real world scans of famous statues (such as Hebe pictured) that are readily available, and load it into Blender. Since it had 2 million faces, I needed to reduce the complexity to 80,000 faces or less to be able to upload it inworld but still have detail for those who are unable to use higher graphics. You can see the two models side-by-side in Blender. At that point I bake the normals to replace a lot of the details that were lost without increasing the complexity, then upload the less complex model and the new normalmap into opensim. The final photo is the result.

You can see all my statues on my store regions:

Main Store: grid.wolfterritories.org:8002:Lunaria Emporium - Main Store

Kitely Store: grid.kitely.com:8002:Lunaria Emporium

And many of my items are available on the Kitely Market here: https://www.kitely.com/market?store=13957705

St. Patrick's day will soon be here! I created this prim skirt for those who wish to wear prims. This is two skirts each with 24 panels. I wore it and did not lag but I would not suggest wearing it if you have lots of other attachments too as it will cause your LOD to go up. You can find this in the Monentes Jewelry store in the new Classic Closet section. Please feel free to texture it and use it any way you wish. Free to give, you may also create outfits using this. If you want your name on as the creator there is a little center ball you can edit. That is fine. Many thanks to Copyright (c) 2007 Dalien Talbot, and a few other folks thanks to whom this skirt rezzer script exists: Loop Rez by Ged Larson 2006 I put out a box with the skirt rezzer, scripts and info manual. You can create your own prims for the skirt panels, mine is a cylinder that has been hollowed with a nice path cut. Experiment with your own panels.

I tapped an alt to experiment with the Open Sim take on Reborn... I have tested Reborn in SL via demos (also with an alt), and I don't recall it cracking 300k in the complexity rating. So... Ok, great for photos, but I'd pass on it if you want to go clubbing on the dance floor, especially a crowded one. Most people won't be able to see your Reborn creations... you will be a gray doll to many. For now, it's best to stick with Decadence, Athena or one of the curvy Ruth2 mods.

(BTW, this ensemble is 600,000 on the complexity scale!)
