Swimsuits in the Rain

Indie Rose has released summer goodness, mostly in the form of swimwear. Now the obvious place to shoot swimwear is at the beach, but instead of zipping over to Las Legunas, I detoured to the sandbox so that I could ALSO show you this great skybox in the round by capriccio*N. It is on a two minute Lucky Board and it took me very little time to garner. It is smallish and beautifully textured and the glow actually works!  It makes a beautiful backdrop and only 5 prims This model has rain particles. Thanks to schnaeppchen for the tip.

The swimsuits come in a variety of colors and patterns. This one is a silver snakeskin model. The ties are drawn into the texture so no prim manipulation is needed.  The super sized sun hat has a  beautifully scuplted base and the texture fits very well. Flowers and ribbon add a little extra pizazz.

This is a collection of individual pieces that flow together. The sarong comes with its own underlayers, but it works perfectly over the bikini. Mix and match is definitely the name of the game here and lots of fun.

Some of my personal favorites of this collection are the stacked bangles which are NOT shown here. Sometimes, you have to go with what works for the styling and the smaller bangle and necklace, also very nice, were the winners there. You'll be seeing the stacked bangles in a later post.

This is one style of sandals available in the new release. Click that photo for a close up as you don't want to miss the great textures.

The top two poses in this post hale from oOo Studio who sent out a blogger pack recently.  Her notecard states: Since the Fair I've remodeled my Studio, adding 6 couples poses to the main gallery, 7 new singles model poses (including a new set for men) and 10 erotic/intimate poses to the risque galleries. I might very well have the biggest little Studio you've never seen. ;)  So drop on by and take a look.

Here is the arty shot for you  effects lovers. I have to admit that I am learning a lot of new tricks in my graphics program -- which is not Photoshop by the way :D.
