From Japan to SL

Located next the SIM group that was introduced last time. A product of artist and architect. I cannot see what this is but the curvature and texture are beautiful.




Sofas and flower arrangements are set at the bottom. These flowers are not plane texture but assembled with prims, using 120 prims! The huge structure has more than 2700 prims. Like the old Kanda Shrine at Edo, an object using abundant prims has a presence.




The SIM group that was introduced last time, showing four SIMs. The beautiful mall was at the top right. I felt relieved to know that there are still many more places to see in SL.




The site for UWA full SIM art. Next to the LEA, four SIMs are prepared. There were many applicants and twelve of them have been selected for every month on two SIMs each, one month respectively from October to March. The first one will be released for public from October 1. The space is same size as the town shown above. Looking forward to seeing huge arts deployed here.

  

Fountains and sculptures are set at the middle of mall, and sophisticated shops on both sides. There was a figure similar to that of Dali.

Like a circle at Manhattan. Different from a shopping center with simple boxes are lined, each shop has its own character within the overall integration. The goods presented at such shops look fancy, and I bought some while walking through all shops.




Also there is a small artificial beach. Sexy pose balls under parasols. This mall is using a full SIM but not using simple repetition. All details were meticulously crafted. Also other SIMs around are nice. If living deep in the heart of city, this lifestyle could be possible in RL. A bit envy my brother living in Manhattan.




An empty night town. There were only drinks waiting for me at a bar.




I did not call for my sister, and enjoyed the lonely bright night. My way to go SL sightseeing tour is to see a world atlas and pickup a town name for place search. This was hit with Casablanca.

  

Visited Totoro's Forest where I have been away for a while and found a nice flower road next to it. Among trees of pure white, a lot of petals are floating on water surface forming a trail.

The pathway through a small cove provides some atmosphere requiring formal attire.




Two flower pathways meet at a front yard of a small church and continue to the altar. In some wedding ceremony, petals of roses will be sprinkled. The bride and groom may come through the two pathways respectively and meet at the church. It should be nice. I came here together with my sister, but not into the church.

  

Sunflowers at Temi's Teahouse were replaced with autumn flowers. As usual, set the resolution to the lowest in order to get smooth movement of camera, then this color came in.




All neighboring areas were the same. I experienced Multi-color Ocean when using V1 viewer, but this is the first time to see it on land. This bug was stable while shooting SSs, but resolved by switching to ultra high quality.




The main flowers are cosmos, black-eyed Susan, and pampas glass. I have tried many arrangements but always ended up with a mess.

This bug may occur when crossing the boundary. In this case I continued walking to the end of the world even on the water surface. It is a bit scary to see myself walking smugly defying any control. Camera position can be adjusted and it is possible to see my walking style from an angle that is not usually used.




Another example is to lose clothing parts. On the left, hair is missing. Second look confirms that my shoes are also gone. It is common to lose belt or prim-skirt after making TP. On the right I kept flying with a smoke condition.
