From Japan to SL

While shopping around, I found nostalgic wall paper using Trompe Leuil. I am standing at a corner of a room which looks larger. A contrasting scape to the detailed cities in the old article “Art-like SS2” where every room had interiors.




The wall paper starts at my head, which a slightly different color. I saw a lot before like this, but it can be looked natural only from a special spot.




There had been wall papers around a SIM. Now it may be popular to use three-dimensional landscape. But this one was made do nicely. The roof where I was standing was a real building.




From a distance, it is hard to tell the border, which I cannot tell now.




Wall papers with landscape were also used in my house fifteen years ago, which allowed only 30 prims. At that time there is no one-prim furniture. Sofas and bed are made by myself, and the room structure was using about10 prims including walls.




A folding screen showing Edo city made of 12 SIMs. at my home, Temi’s Teahouse at Edo. In order to save prims, it was a single plate simulating folded panel. The Edo castle was using 4 SIMs at the middle. The white one on the right is the new Tokyo Tower, that did not have name at that time yet. Sculp and Mesh came in later, and I was impressed by stairs made of a single prim.




By the way, this is the Edo 12SIMs at the start. Senso-ji temple, shopping street, five story pagoda, Yoshiwara, Geisha-spot Ohmiya, department store Echigoya, Kabuki theater, shipbuilding area, and new Tokyo tower… I memorized all and work hard as a guide of Edo, patrolling and directing guests, also from overseas. I got company housing with enough allowance, happy old days.



These could be related to the SL21B theme, “Elements. This theme invites us to explore the fundamental components that make up our vast virtual landscape and the diverse communities within it”. The SL21B is held from June 21st through July 21st.
