The chore is something I’ve been meaning to redo.  It’s the floor scrubbing buckets however with a twist.  When I was first reading the Gorean novels there was a spot where these girls were scrubbing the floors and as the men walked down the corridor boots ringing out they threw themselves to their belly out of respect for them until they passed… only then raising themselves up to resume their labors.  This little thought always tickled me.  I know I’m odd… and onwards we go…. so my idea for my buckets was to have them to be able to be a bit more interactive… at least this is my hope.  Finally I got down to it and got them done.  These buckets not only have TWO different floor scrubbing animations in them, they also have 8 other poses for the role-player.  Most of them are rather submissive in nature though I did include a kneeling animation without the hands crossed at the wrists… or the thighs parted real wide so others outside of a Gorean atmosphere could use it still.  Lower in prims it weighs in at 5 so it won’t eat up your allowance too badly either.  So while scrubbing away at those floors no longer do you have to hastily jump from your place to find an appropriate kneel or way to address someone as they approach!  I think that’s rather nifty myself.

Now onto the outfit.  This little number is rather cute, flaunting your curves, laced up the sides but leaving enough to the imagination and all without showing off too much for the more modest.  Though around my place modest is rather subjective… it is still riding high on the thighs barely covering, hehe.  It’s aptly entitled “Pinstriped”!  Dark toned and done in 4 different colors this time… Red, black, blue, and brown.

So that’s my offering for this Hump Day… I have sooooooooo much coming up soon that I can barely contain myself.  I have lots of content, hunts galore, and the sim should be opening up very very soon!  OMG I just am beside myself… not sure what to do first!  Trying to not get too weighed down too!

Have a great week and I hope ya’ll are doin well.

Not ONLY do we now gots chickens… I made a lil coop/hutch for them… it could be used for the chickens, vulos, or…. dare I say it…. Bunnies!  Ok, I got that out of my system.  This turned out nice with some very nice shading along the sculpts and throughout.

The one that I really wanted to let you know about is a new chore…. one I have been REALLY wanting for awhile but never had the animation to be able to do.  Scattering feed… like to chickens or birds.  I’m so hyped you wouldn’t believe it, and over something so simple too!  Low prim, it weighs in at 4… embedded animation, and near the landing so you can try it out.

This week saw the release of a delicate silk with sculptured draped top.  The set includes nipple rings, two different draped tops (one with nipple ring and one without), skirts, leg band and arm bands.

Offered with different color options, some with gold metals bands delicately sweeping around the hips and some with silver.  I tried offering it in a few different varieties since I know I can get stuck on silver a lot… but these looked pretty good with gold too.

I also released a new chore… well sort of new.  An old new chore.  I redid my sweeping chore, new sculptured broom and the set is less primmy, adding up to only 3.  I made an attachment like before too so it can be worn anywhere.  This one has a smoother animation, sweeping and then bending to scrub at a particularly nasty spot.  It can be tested and tried out down at the Five Blades location.

Most of this week I’ve been working on trying to come up with a build to use as a temporary location while I work on the main sim.  It’s funny… I have this colossal sized building that is rather overwhelming to house my stuff…. and it almost seems like it is a little bit over the top considering it probably will only be used temporarily.  Ah well.

I hope ya’ll enjoy, and since I got that build kinda going…. the store will probably be moved to a temp location in the sky soon.  I just need to move things up there so that the bulk of inventory is left available.  I hope ya’ll are having an awesome weekend!

It’s been crazy.  So much going on that here at 2 am my time I’m finally realizing… whoops!

I released a set of sandals that are awesomeness this week.  I know, I’m so modest right?  I can’t help it, I like these ones.  They’re called Phoenix Rising.  I picked the name because the way the prim work at the bottom of the tongue/top are turned out.  It reminded me of a phoenix.  Just an impression I got so I went with it, sometimes those are the best kind.

In 7 different versions… golden and black base texturing and then different variations in either pewter or gold ornamentation.  The black and the gold ones are my absolute favorite, the coloring just stands out and looks really good to me.  I like all of them but that is my favorite.  I think they’re a great accessory for fantasy, maybe Greek or Roman?  A rather pampered slave girl?  Maybe…

I also released a set of cages.  A stacked set of three for role-play.  One girl can be in each cage giving a nice look for capture rp scenes or a slavers home or something.  The other two are singles cages but are RLV enabled with scan and capture.  Once the girl is captured she’s placed within the cage, stripped and held.  I like them, made almost entirely of sculpted prims… shaded nicely too.  One has a linen mat, the other has strew strewn within the bottom so if you feel like being nice letting em have a blanket orrrrrrr not so nice……

You decide!

The Myths and Legends 2 hunt started yesterday too.

I have that out with some hunt tracks, no hint… it’s really not that hard to find.  The hunt prim shoots off yellow sparkles in every direction.  *laughs*  So if in doubt, just look for the lil yellow particles floatin.

The Gorean Grid hunt is starting soon, this time they’re not doing numbered stores.  It’s one of those where you start wherever you want and just sorta pick up the trail as you go.  Never been in a hunt that did this before so I’m a lil curious how it will turn out.

I decided to do the Fortnight Freebie down at the GFM, so if you’re a bargain hunter I’m supposed to be doing that for the next two weeks, I’m setting up tomorrow/today.

Going to keep this short, I’m tired.

Hope you are having a great weekend!

Breakfast in bed!  What woman doesn’t warm or melt when the one she cares for takes the time to think of her… bringing her a warm toasty breakfast, awakening her to the sweet company of those she cares about and giving her a few moments of soft fuzziness. So I set to it… working away up in my workshop and came up with a lovely piece that I am happy to release.  A tray with an embedded couples animation set.  The female sits back propped against pillows, headboard, what have you… her legs stretched out in front of her, tray over her lap while her S.O. sits alongside relaxed, arm over her legs talking to her.  What a fine fine thing don’t you think?  The plate has a yummy breakfast all prepared… eggs, bacon and toast with a warm muffin along the side.  Made mostly of sculpted prims it looks lovely… good enough to eat!  Touch the tray to receive a fork to wear… female sits first, and then the male.  No poseballs, and the sits are adjustable through menu.

My other release this week is a set of slave beds.  I have a couple over in the slave gear section but they’re older, use a texture change script that can end up being messed up if you reset it wrong so I finally redid them to something that I prefer a little bit more.  One of them even suspiciously looks like the furred couch/bed that I released awhile back.  Hmmm…. go figure.  There’s four of them, a couple basket types… a couple with the darker outside.  Most have texture change, either the linens can be changed or the basket or both.  One of the great things about it is firstly, it is a lower prim item.  7 prims for one of them and 6 for the others… then obviously the texture change.  Tons of options with those so you can decorate or personalize them a little bit more… then… I made them copiable!  TA DA!  I know, not a big deal right?  Well this is one of those items where if you have multiple slaves then you can let them have their own beds, or use them in a kennel… or stable… or wherever, it makes things so much easier for you the end user I think.  Of course the permissions limit so you can’t transfer but well… can’t have everything.  They’re very reasonably priced for a copiable item like this so come down and see.  Each bed comes with 7 different animations or poses from curled sleep to pleading.

That is about it for now… soooooo much coming up and out in the near future.  I feel a sim rebuild comin on and some brand new naughty goodness to taunt….. err… tempt you with.

Take care!

I had been intending for a very long time to create a pitcher pump styled set, just never quite got around to it…. that is, until now.  Made mostly of sculptured prims there is two new version types for your slave to keep themselves clean using the pitcher pump.  One has a basin at its base, tilted up with a small pool of water and a kneeling washing animation.  You can turn on water to pour from the pump with a click.  The other is like the shower, water droplets turn on when you sit with three different ways to wash yourself using two animations.

The third one doesn’t use the pitcher pump, it is a simple bucket with water at its base.  This one uses the kneeling washing animation… a low prim alternative that can be placed anywhere.  Inside or outside depending on what you are looking to have.

I’m thinking that between all of my recent releases with sponge baths, grooming and everything else that just about anyone can find something that will appease that need for their role play scene.  At least I’d like to think so.

I hope ya’ll have had a great weekend!

This past months winner of the 2000L and the 2000L Store Credit was…… KittenAnne Mousehold!!  Congrats!

It was fun, and I got the…. “oh my god I never win anything!”  hehehe makes it even better.

Remember it is easy to get in on the chance to win, all you have to do is come down… click the sign at the landing point while keeping Roawenwood in your picks.  You know… the first person I picked off the list this past month DIDN’T have the store in their picks.  Tsk tsk, so they didn’t win and that’s why KittenAnne got lucky!!

Other up and coming news?  It’s a secret but….. I’m probably going to be rebuilding the store very soon.  I know right?  I know how it is and I like it when I go to a place to be able to find everything where I left it so to speak but hopefully the layout will still keep shopping easier.  I’m having to move some of my more adult content and upcoming content into an adult rated area.  I don’t like it but I’m sure it will work out.  Roawenwood is still going to try to have an atmosphere that I enjoy… hopefully it turns out ok.  Cross your fingers for me.

In the meantime what does that mean to you?  Not a whole lot except that at some point the bulk of my inventory will be put into a temporary store in the sky so you guys can still get to it while I work on the ground level.  I will probably be retiring some merchandise, though I haven’t picked what exactly.  Once that is settled we’ll have some reopening stuff… and hopefully a lot of new fun things for you to peek at!

Newness for yesterday!  I put out a camp set.  The Woodsman Camp Set with a sculpted tent, camp blankets, fire, terrain piece and grass so you can create a neat little scene with it.  The tent, terrain, and grass is copy, while the blankets and the fire are transfer.  I figured this way you can create a camp easily or just use the one.  It’s been an interesting bit getting it together, I think it looks pretty decent and can go in so many different kinds of places.  It isn’t like it is solely Gorean or anything else.  If you live in a desert region even it can be used… just don’t use the grasses and included terrain piece.  The tent still looks great.

It will be on a 50% off countdown vendor for at least another 24 hours, maybe a bit longer so if you’re curious you should come down.

Also, just because I think it is funny and have to poke fun at myself a little bit here… I did a “Hump Day Easter Egg Hunt Whoopsie”.  Last week I put out 10 eggs for people to find with gifts from around the store mostly.  It was a great success and a lot of people had fun with it… well…. umm, you see.  *shuffles her foot across the floor*  I didn’t -actually- write down where I put the 10 eggs and the store is pretty big… and… and… well…. I couldn’t remember where I put two of them.  I figured I’d have no problem, I know my patterns and where I’d stash stuff right?  WRONG!  hahaha

Soooo we had an extra little bit of fun, while poking fun at myself I decided to give a 500L Gift Certificate to the first person who IM’d me with the right locations for both eggs.  I had a few people who sent one, and while only the first will get the 500L one… I’m going to be a stinker and give the ones who tried a 250L one, I just didn’t mention that in the announcement.  *grins*

You never know what I might throw in there so it’s better to give it a shot, you might end up with something anyhow!

The 7 Sins hunt is still going on, and this week another hunt started…. the Celebrating Gaia hunt.  I made something nice for that too.  At least I like it but then again most of the time I don’t put out or give away things that I don’t like.  I’m the sort that can’t put something out there if I’m not at least somewhat happy with it.  I’ll always be the most critical of my work of course but you know how it goes right?

Anyhow… I think that’s enough rambling for one morning.  I’ll talk to you soon!

The green is coming back, misty mornings still with a bite as the days get warmer and warmer… the earth awakening under suns bright rays.  This week we’re relaxing… Taking a few moments to sit around the cool water as it ripples sedately a fishing rod in one hand.

Over the winter I released an ice fishing pond… with the changing seasons it only seems logical that I should revamp and redo the ice fishing for warmer weather.  The set is really nice looking.  Added along the edges are cattails, and the snow has shifted to softly rolling hills of grass.  I think I like this one better even than the last.  The pond has room for four people to sit at once, a couple different fishing animations… and a bucket of fish for your catch.

I hope you all enjoy and have a wonderful rest of the week!

Bass fishermen watch Monday night football, drink beer, drive pickup trucks and prefer noisy women with big breasts.  Trout fishermen watch MacNeil-Lehrer, drink white wine, drive foreign cars with passenger-side air bags and hardly think about women at all.  This last characteristic may have something to do with the fact that trout fishermen spend most of the time immersed up to the thighs in ice-cold water.     ~Author Unknown

Also a set of prim silks, called Taunt, they’re recolorable so you only have to buy the one set and then you can have them look however you want.  They’re draped with tons of silver jewelry too.

There’s been an herb garden, a new peeling potatoes/suls chore… and then today I released the Forest Meadow set.

I’ll add some pics real soon.

Wednesday was a serious hump day.  It felt like it was never going to end and the problems just kept mounting.  SL was having fits.  Couldn’t build, open my notecards or scripts, could do anything really for quite awhile so I didn’t get to do the event that I had planned for this week.  However, since I am ever the optimist, I did do another secret sale/refund.  This time though you can get any TWO items in my store for 50% off. It’s like the other sale… purchase your items, send me a NC with the transaction history and I’ll send you a 50% refund of your purchase price. Update list members are given first notice about sales and discounts so if you want to be kept up to date you should click on the subscribe button at the landing zone at Roawenwood.

You can take advantage of this with any purchases made until Feb. 13th right before midnight and we switch over to Valentines day.  This way you can get a lil something for yourself, and something for a friend.

I’ve had quite a few releases that weren’t really announced on the blog, as well as a couple not even put through my update list.  I’ve been working on a fishing set series, with more to come.  The first was the Roawenwood Fishing Dinghy and then there was the Dockside Fishing Chair… this was a request actually from a customer.  She loved the boat but wanted something for her deck, and voila there you have it.  I already was going to do something similar but it was a good kick in the backside to get me moving.  More to come with this series very soon.

I have a few little Valentines goodies at the landing zone.  Some adorable lil bunnies, candy, baskets, that kind of thing.  Last minute gift ideas.

I’m working on a new outfit, still trying to get the clothing layers the way I like and I’m trying to decide how flamboyant to make it.  It’s a little different than previous releases so I hope ya’ll like it when it comes out.

I have a few new ideas rolling around in my brain… but that’s normal.

Happy Friday everyone, I hope this weekend goes wonderfully for you!
