A look into a new direction





I have been debating starting something new for awhile now. But know matter how I try, the waters always call to me. So instead of looking to see about other mythical creatures (which I still have not given up the idea of). I want have begone to expand the options in the waters of Atargatis. I have been creating jewelry, special occasion skins, poses, tops, and now ears. I have so many designs waiting to come out that this last Wednesday I set the first set of ears and a special skin for sale for 50L. It is still in the store, but the price is now 250L.

I love creating new and wonderful items and this, I hope will be something everyone can enjoy. As a bonus, I HATE trying to color match my ears to my skin. It never comes out just right and if light hits them the wrong way then they color is WAY off. So, I have teamed up with Mango Mango, and the ear bases will match the tones of those skins :)))

Hooked

Something that absolutely makes me happy as a shopper as well as feel appreciated for supporting my favorite designers are group gifts. I'm not a shop group hopper and generally stick to shops I'm interested in hearing about their new releases. I also don't mind joining fees for shop groups I really like. I'm weird like that. I wish I had more room for in world group slots personally as I'm not too keen on the various subscription groups. I digress though!


This is a little group gift available to Atargatis group members. Something fun and a little edgy, just how I like things! It's a lip piercing made from a fishing hook. It's currently available in the group notices for a while. If you dilly dally and miss out though by not joining the in world group, I've heard that you can get it (and lots of other prizes) from the custom 7 Seas fishing prize all new and nifty in the Atargatis waters.

Join the in world group, Atargatis or try your fishing luck here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Monkee%20Business/25/237/13

Silver Jewelry

Aaaannnnd June is upon us all already! I missed last weeks' special release which was a luverly two person pose. Human and merrow striking a fun pose together. Cheran posted it in the previous post. *I know! GASP!!*

Swim fast and go get it!

I'm late with this Wednesday's (my excuse is evertime I try to blog I get distracted feeding the fishes here) as well but I bet 'cause Cheran is nice like that, it might still be available.



It is a very prettiful head piece that once again can be worn by finned and feeted alike. It's got a regal feel without being overly fussy. I think it might make a great design on top of a spear or staff as well *cough cough*. Especially something that can heal as the design reminds me of that serpent and wings image thingy on old fashioned pharmacies.

Go buy this Wednesday's special here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Monkee%20Business/17/227/13

Till next time!

I got carried away

When I see the loverly poses of men and mermaids together I cant help but wonder about how many of those encounters would really be romantic. I mean the nature of humans is to say "that looks cool, I wonder how much I could get for that?" And who leaves the fish that grants every wish in the sea? Throw that maiden over your shoulder and take her home to mamma!


This was my nutty look at a couples pose. Yes you can find it @ Atargatis. Enjoy, I had fin making it.
