Ice Queen

Finally!
Here she is, and I think it was worth the wait :) The delicate wings are frosty cool ~ sprinkled in snowflakes and icy jewels. An ice-cold crown sits on her head proclaiming her Queen of Winter. Sheer, ice wings touched with snowflakes and jewels adorn her and the lightest covering of snow lays on her skin; her magic wand proclaims winter upon the land. Delicate ice earrings are included. Come claim your piece of Winter today.

Up Coming...

Argh - there are not enough hours in the day!!

Wait 'til you see the newest fae design coming out! The Ice Queen- a little taste of winter in SL- features the themed body tat made famous by the Elemental series. This one has shaded snowflakes in different designs up and down the body and on gloves. All will be on the available layers- so, you will have two pant choices, and two shirts plus the gloves. Also, the softest, most delicate wings! These are highlighted by sparkling jewels and teeny embedded snowflakes in the sheer gossamer of the wing itself. A translucent, tiny skirt for a tad of modesty, an optional drape and a sheer, see thru snowflake bra! Oh and wait! The "crowning-glory" an icicle crown!

Accessories aside from the crown will include a staff and some jewelry I have not designed as yet.. hence the time this is taking-

Just wanted you to know I have not fallen asleep here- lots more goodies coming your way! And of course, I need to take a little time to design some nice Christmas prezzies for all the Fans of Talon Faire!

Optimizing For Windlight

Wow- what a difference a few settings can make!

Now available at Talon Faire along with a growing line of kanji and tribal tattoos.

Little Hearts :)

I cannot begin to tell you how much more difficult this is turning out to be! This one was not too hard because the nature of the subject- but the kanji are killer to get de-pixelated! I have been working on one as a special request and it should say Beloved- I have downloaded it, drawn it by hand and scanned it, found it on line, downloaded, printed, scanned it... The pixelization if hell! So that one I am still working on - this one though I found it fun and have added to the store- hope you will like it :)

Talon Faire Reviewed - Again!

That's right Fans of Talon Faire - Your favorite store got another on-line review :)

Here is the article - http://www.mujermagic.com/Accessories/vine-body-art-by-amaranthim.html

I enjoyed the Review in particular because it showed me a slight failing in my Vines tattoo - there are two seams showing where I assumed there were none at all! So I will be correcting that and offering a replacement lower tat for all who have purchased it in the past.

My thanks to MujerMajic for taking the time to review Talon Faire.

Troubled Tropics?

Well it's that time of year... Hurricane season - this weekend Ike teased us but thankfully changed his mind :)

I had plenty of time in-world to work on clothes and that resulted in two new releases - both gowns have flowing flexi skirts and jeweled highlights - here come the pix....


Note the flexi cap-sleeves on the red lace dress... On both of these the skirts feature delicate lace cutout, on the turquoise gown the effect is so fine it is nearly mesh like.

Wisteria Vines Body Tattoo

New at Talon Faire Wisteria Vines.... Mother Eve herself would have worn this deliciously tempting body tattoo... Find your own bit of Paradise.

Ooh! It's Magic!

On the Biz Merchant's Thread in SL Forums - http://forums.secondlife.com/showthread.php?t=274749&page=1&pp=40
a challenge was posted to come up with something unique-
Well, this is Unique to me- I first made these up to wear under a gorgeous set of body jewels I picked up from Rha! Designs that will be my attire in the upcoming release of the Women of the Undying Thread calendar- I really liked it and imagine it would be very in keeping with a dryad or forest sprite theme... Ladies and Gents- my first Fantasy Creation: Vines...

Coming Soon!

This will be my first attempt at ladies' intimates. I have created this corset, panties and stockings set that I shall release later tonight. Each link is hand drawn - every aspect of this set is created by hand - the original color source is a ruby for its sparkling clarity and richness of color. I hope it will be well received.
