Rock Your Rack

 

Told you I'd been busy!

Laminak is also included in the 'Rock Your Rack' 'Gardens of Hope' event this month. 

Here's a link to the charity website: https://rockyourrack.wordpress.com/

There's a whole new sofa set that I've made for it, consisting of a 2 seat sofa and armchair, all original mesh with materials enabled. 

For the Limited Edition item (which will be retired after the event) I've created a delicate pink version of this new sofa set and matching floor lamps. All proceeds of these items go directly to the charity.

The Sofa Sets come in PG or Adult and have a texture changer in the throw cushions so you can customize the look to suit your room or taste. They're mod/copy, No transfer. 

I've also created 2 hunt items and accessories:

The hunt items cost 10L each and again all proceeds go to the charity.

For the exclusive item which will be available at Laminak's Main Store after the event, I've created an 'Autumn Tweed' set, perfect for country cottages, mansions as well as log cabins, for that cozy winter feel.

There will be more texture options to come but for now, I hope you like these and find time to visit the event. 

There are lots of fashion and music events planned, please see the event website, link added above ;-).

Phew, think I've managed to catch up! 

Take care all of you.

Lots of love and hugs.

Halloween!

 

Spooky Greetings covered in spiders and cobwebs to you all!!

Hi everyone, I hope you're all ok!

It's almost HALLOWEEN!!!!

One of my favorite festivals/holidays.

I'm in 4 themed events, more information to follow in a future blog post but the first two events, open or opening soon are 'Pumpkin Town' and 'Trick or Treat Lane'.

For Pumpkin Town I've created 'Martha's Table'. Sold as a fatpack or individual pieces (apart from the cauldron and witches chair which are only in the fatpack)

It comprises of a table covered with a lace cloth, although you can remove this, a chair that has been inspired by a RL 16th-century chair, a bubbling cauldron, a spellbook, and a pestle and mortar with little ingredient dishes. 

The witch's chair has custom spell casting animations - reading the spellbook, adding ingredients, smelling the brew, and stirring the pot, and it also features an original mesh wand that rezzes as an attachment. There's also a helper's chair that has sits in so you can have friends watch you create your potions.

For 'Trick or treat Lane' I've created a 'Martha's Fire Pit and Cauldron Set'.

This is a fatpack only and consists of a firepit with 1 stool, a fire pit with 3 stools, and a single stool to add around for friends.

It also includes custom animations in male and female - Stirring, Stoking the Fire, and Smelling the brew. 

The fire pit rezzes an original mesh staff, so using the avisitter experience on your land is recommended.

For both events there's a hunt gift, completely free, the Pumpkin Town freebie is at the main landing point, as the Trick or Treat Lane event isn't set up or open yet I'm not sure where the gift will be but there's a good chance it'll be at the Laminak booth. 

Ok, there's more to come in the next blog as there are 2 more Halloween events I'm involved in but haven't completed the builds for yet! aarrgghhh .. hahaha. Such a fun time ;-)

Ok, take care, sending you all hugs and a sprinkle of Halloween magic!

Renaissance Festival - Medieval Thrones & Knighting Ceremony

Greetings Everyone ;-)

Hope you're all ok.

As mentioned in my previous blog September was a busy one for me and it ended with the setup for the Renaissance Festival. 

Link to the event website: https://slrenaissancefestival.com/

There are 6 sims, filled with stores and things to do, jousting tournaments, parades, and music, it's really worth exploring even if you don't usually participate in roleplay of any kind. 

Anyway, I made Medieval Thrones and Accessories for it, as well as a Knighting Ceremony!

The thrones come in a mid/dark oak texture and there are 8 fabrics to choose from:

There are two Thrones in the pack, One Male and One Female. The Male Thrones have Male sits Couple Cuddles and the Adult versions have Male/Female Adult animations. The Female Thrones have Female Sits, Female/Female Couple cuddles and Female/Female Adult animations in the adult version. They also include a 'Toasting Ceremony' with custom animations and original mesh goblet.

To complement the thrones I've created a Carved Oak Throne Stand, Canopy and Matching Banners.

On to the Knighting Ceremony:

The ceremony comes with a circular oak platform, a knighting cushion in fabric textures to match the thrones, and a display sword.

There are custom animations for the actual knighting and a celebratory hug for the finish although you don't have to do this as part of the RP. 

The ceremony rezzes a sword attachment and it's recommended that you enable the 'avsitter experience' on your land to make this run smoothly.

As with the Gothic Thrones, I've made a whole range of candelabras and candle stand lighting to compliment the set.

You can see the whole display at Laminak Main Store and try the ceremony before you buy, or better still, as these are exclusive to the Renaissance Festival, try them there and experience the atmosphere of the faire ;-).

Ok, better leave this here. Sending hugs and lots of love to you all.

September Came and Went!

 

Greetings Everyone ;-)

I hope as always that you're all ok. 

September was a little crazy with events and building for events in October that I have sadly had no time to update this, but I'll rectify that now with a little update about what's been going on and tell you about the new things at Laminak.

I started September with a new set of Gothic thrones and accessories for the 'We Love Roleplay' event.

The Thrones come in packs of two, a male and a female throne, in PG or adult and in 3 different fabric colours. 

And at the SOS Event with a new range of Medieval Candle Chandeliers.

The Chandeliers come in 4 different metals with 3 different gem colours to choose from. There's also floor candles, table candles, and hearth candles to match.

I was also at Mystic Market with the gothic versions of the chandeliers and candle stands.

And finally, as September drew to a close, I set up at the Renaissance Festival with a new range of Medieval thrones and Accessories, but I'll explain about those in the next blog ;-)

So far this year has flown by! I can hardly believe we're already in Autumn when it didn't feel as though we had a summer because of the lockdown. 

I guess this is the new 'norm' for us all and at some point, we'll wonder how we all got through this pandemic. 

In the meantime, lets have some fun! I don't know about you, but I'm looking forward to Halloween! 

Bye for now! Keep safe all of you x

Huge Hugs

Swank - Around The World - August Event Exclusive

Greetings Everyone ;-)

Hope, as always, that you're all ok. 

I've created an Italian styled, Antique, fountain for this round. 

It's animated with 22 animations, Male, female and Mocap meditations. 

There are 2 stone options - Cream, and Dark -, and 5 ceramic water bowls to choose from - Red, Blue, Black, Cream, and Green.

There's also a texture changer in the tile splash-back with 7 different tile textures. 

It's original mesh, materials are enabled and there's also a touch on and off water sound. 

View now at the main store or from the 7th August at Swank. 

Landmarks in my SL profile pics. 

It's been a busy month, but I'm loving all the events I've been involved in so far this year. There are a lot more coming up, and I'll be at the Renaissance Faire in September with something that I hope you'll think is kind of special ;-).

For now, though, it's back to work ;-)

Big hugs and lots of love
Stay safe!
Love

We Love Roleplay - August 2020

Greetings Everyone ;-)

Hope you're all ok and enjoying the summer. 

I have incredible news! Laminak has been accepted to participate in the 'We Love Roleplay' (WLRP) event! 

It was a little last minute and I've not had a heap of time to prepare but at 1am this morning I finally finished setting the booth up and I'm in! 

I've created a rotating bookcase for it in two wood versions, Oak and Ebony, both with 3 stand options - Desk Top, Roman and Ornate. 

The bookcases have individual books that, when touched, hand out an open version with a custom animation to add to your avatar (there are 8 medieval titles in the oak and 8 vampire/magical titles in the ebony). 

I do have plans to do a lighter wood version but I've sadly run out of time at the moment, so I'll have to come back to this in a month or two, as I have a lot of events coming up and one that has to be ready by the 6th of this month - in 3 days time. 

For now, though, I'm just thrilled to be a part of such a fab event and one that is seriously appropriate for 'Laminak' ;-)

I hope you like the bookcases, there are demo versions at the event and at the main store, so you can try out a book before you buy, and if you have one of the newer AO's you can walk around, or sit with it. 

They're a little higher on the land impact due to the books being individual, and the 7-8 Li on this desk top version is because it'll work without the base so you don't have to have it rezzed. 

I'd better get back to work! ;-)

Another post coming soon about the Swank - Around The World - Event, but for now, I hope you're all keeping safe, sending extra big bear hugs out to you all.

Much Love

Casey
