Learning to Rig

1/17/2020

 
Picture
Last week I thought it would be fun to check out Lani Mall to see what's new.  Vbinnia Radek has great rigged avatar characters available free.  I contacted her to ask if she could rig a cute anime character I had found.  She loves a good challenge and is looking at it to see if she can rig it for me.

​She showed me a video about rigging and told me to give it a try.  With Blender 2.81 I find it very easy to find the needed features and in no time had  created this rig.  I still have a ways to go yet there was error when I tried to Parent the rig, but I am getting there.  Thank you Vbinnia for your tips.  Who knows, I might soon one day have a rigged character that I created.

Update ;) I did it! This is fun but still so much to learn.  

Ladies Night

1/6/2020

 
A born dancer, dancing up until my mid-twenties, until the MS began to take my balance and timing, for me I had to be there.  I would not pass up seeing Ladies Night by Freda Frostbite.  ​ 

Belle's Barn welcomed guests for their first performance of 2020, Ladies Night.
Phenomenal choreography, beautiful costumes and amazing detailed sets were presented to an awe-inspired crowd.

​This show had my heart beating and the desire to dance again.   I know I will be at every show they present. 

Their next performance will be January 8th, 2020 at 2 PM -Kitely time.  I highly suggest you come and see it for yourself.  Freda and the Belles are truly magnificent.

Intersections...

"Intersections" Chapel by Dot Matrix
Wanting to start the New Year out spiritually connected, I ventured to Dot Matrix  "Intersections" region to stop by the chapel.   It is important to  me that this year that the OpenSim community can heal.  Start fresh and work towards common goals.  Dot's chapel is the perfect place to reflect on this.

OpenSim has so many wonderful opportunities.  The networking and connections we make are vital to our personal growth.    The year to me is about spiritual growth.  Seeing my friends prosper, creating new worlds excited to share all they have created is what makes living virtually so rewarding for me.  Let's make this a year of creativity and growth.
