I am still alive :P I've been fighting with beanbags. If you are like me, you would have looked at beanbags in SL and thought: "Hey, they're just blobs. How hard can they be to make?"
Well, let me tell you, those blobs are extremely deceiving. It is simple enough to apply a sculpt map to the prim (thank goodness I don't need to make the sculpt map or I might not have any hair left after tearing all my hair out) but texturing the blob is darn tricky. I have been fighting with beanbags for ONE WEEK and I'm still not done.
Meanwhile, I've commissioned the one and only fantabulous Laleeta of Pffiou! to custom-make animated poses for the beanbag. I intend to sell the thing if I ever get it textured. Something that is costing me so much blood, sweat and tears -- well okay, no tears yet so far, *phew* -- ought to bring me some money dammit!
I'm using Karl's workspace since I only have 15 prims left on my own land, so I'm littering his space with copies of beanbags. Everything in the above picture is mine, except for the huge diamond at the back. That's his -- he's a jeweller ;)
Karl is probably the only man on earth who would not mind me messing up his space. He claims he litters just as badly as I do, except that his litter is way to small to see, since he works with tiny prims; plus there is no problem since we have plenty of room. "My space is your space. Build away," he said to me. How could I possibly not love this man?!
**Yes, I am participating in Alicia's Big Bad Blogger Challenge. I just didn't follow the topic for today :P
