New Exclusive Titania 3.0 Fruit Fairy Wings at Obscyra Event in SL

Obscyra is now open! You can find my new Titania 3.0 Fruit Fairy Wings there through Dec.6.

The Watermelon wings (above) are bases on the illustration I made in support of a ceasefire in Gaza / Palestine as it is a Palestinian symbol, converted to fit in the Titania wing design.
When the theme of Obscyra was revealed to be food themed I knew I had to bring that design into SL, and automatically donate 50% of the proceeds to Doctors Without Borders / MSFUSA as they provide aid to displaced Palestinians under famine & genocide, as well as those in Sudan and Congo. I’m glad that I’m able to help in any small way and it’s much easier to donate from SL sales than real life as I’m struggling financially myself.

*Cute little outfit not included, and is from Flysoffi for only 5L on MP. It was too perfect not to use for pics! I added normal & spectral maps tho as it did not come with any.

The Lemon Drop wings were fun to paint, and although I really don’t like the color yellow much in real life, I really like how these came out and have been wearing them around the grid. Maybe it’s the gloomy RL weather we’re having, their brightness is a bit of a mood lifter! Should I offer an orange and lime set too?

The Berry Tart wings have my favorite colors, raspberry & blackberry, lots of shades of purples are where I am most at home.

Finally, the Dragon Fruit wings round out the series in bright pink and green with a white base speckled with black ‘seeds’.

They each include a default large and XL size for each gender plus one for Petites & Dinkies, an AO for each size, and a Shine HUD with 7 different iridescent specular color textures.

All mod / copy so you can edit and tint as you wish, and unlike my previous wings the veins are separate faces so you can color them individually.

Each are $150L individually, with optional Animation HUD for $99L, or $349 for the FatPack. This is introductory pricing, they’ll cost a little more when the event is over.
An optional Animation HUD with 5 static poses, 4 short gestures, and 8 different flutter animations is available for more control, and is included in the FatPack.

Exclusively at the Obscyra* Monthly Event http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Obscyra/123/67/41

*Available to bloggers in the blogger room

New Releases for Second Life!

Fairies, the Titania 3.0 mesh Bento animated fairy wings are out now in autumn colors at the Fae Faire Autumnal Event along with the Lily corset & skirt!

It's the debut of the mesh version of my original Titania design, as well as the mesh corset & skirt loosely based on 17th century wear.

The corset set can be worn with the corset only, or with the skirt and it even has a bit of room under it to fit other skirts & bottoms. The straps are also optional, so it’s really versatile.
There are 3 color versions each with a golden iridescent sheen to the fabric, and have modify / copy permissions.
It's an exclusive for the Fae Faire event, and so far it’s only for ReBorn bodies & features a custom chest add on. It is $199L.
The versions for other bodies will be released before too long as well.

I also have a small pack of 3 autumn colored Titania wings with the additional animation HUD as well as AO for each wing size for $199L.
One of the colorways is from a real life version I made that went viral on Twitter & Pinterest without credit to me and infringed countless times so I figured people must like that version.
It’s one of my most popular designs as well as one of the most stolen.

The Cinnamon colorway wings (above) are a hunt item for $15L, just look for the leaf!
Many designers have items to hunt for priced between 1-50L each, so come on by to shop or just hunt for the amazing deals disguised as sparkly leaves here:

The corset & skirt with chest addon was custom made for me by a pro mesher & rigger based off my design sketches & input. They did amazing work, but since they expressed that they don’t want to be bugged with customer questions and are currently closed for rigging commissions I’ll keep them anonymous rather than crediting as I might otherwise.
I know a lot of SL designers & stores don’t like to disclose that they use outside help to create and rig their clothing meshes but I don’t want everyone to expect more from my skills than I actually have right now.
If anyone needs to know I don’t mind telling you, just don’t bother them right now.

Big thank you, again, to Siyu Suen of Illusions (whose booth is right across from mine btw & whose necklace & ears I’m wearing here) for meshing the Titanias with separate veins for this iteration, and it was a bit more complicated than we thought. Also for decorating my booth for me since I was literally up all night till 6am to finish my items for the event!
She’s been a huge help as I learn how to make proper meshes in Blender, and hopefully soon I’ll be making the more complex wing meshes with separate veins on my own.

Fancy Fairy Second Life News

I’ve got a new gift at the SL Shop & Hop, and news about a copycat that doubled down at the We <3 Roleplay event

I didn’t get accepted for my own booth for the Second Life Shop & Hop sales event happening in world, so I’m sharing space with my good friend Siyu Suen of Illusions, who makes the jewelry and ears I’m wearing here. At the front counter you’ll find a couple gift boxes, the round hat box contains the tattered Teasel Unseelie fairy wings you see here. These are solid rather than transparent so no alpha glitch, and this version features lots of holes & tatters.

I’m also wearing a brand new mesh corset loosely based on historical stays that was made for me by a pro based on my sketches, and an optional skirt. I’m still working on texturing as well as on the Titania 3.0 wings so it’s not out yet, but keep an eye out for it soon!

Fairyzette Sahara strikes again

Side-by-side images showing my real life Acorn wings on the left and the infringing SL copy on the right

I’ve posted in my blog about this creator a few months ago already as she’d copied several of my designs, so I was shocked to find she’d gone and released one of them again with minimal changes at the October We <3 Roleplay event.
Below is the PrimFeed posts advertising the costume pack containing the wings, which has now been removed.

One of the big reasons I’m sharing details here is because of the way the situation was handled by the event owners / organizers, and my previous experiences with people who engaged in some form of slander / libel against me in retaliation for expecting them to follow their own rules they claim to enforce.

I didn’t have high confidence that this would be dealt with quickly due to my previous interactions with one of the owners, who admitted to ignoring my message to her about a different infringer because they weren’t selling the thing at her event specifically.
The only reason I did let her know, is because their rules seem to say that those who copy others’ work are not considered for their events, period, and a friend urged me to let them know, assuming they cared about copyright as much as we do.
After not hearing back from her for a couple weeks, my friend made a group chat with me and Voshie, the event owner, thinking she must have been really busy and missed the message.
Her response was “Hey there, I actually have received your message, however I chose not to respond as I feel like this is not WLRP's concern as it was never at our event.”

Considering her lack of concern, I didn’t have a lot of faith I’d get a response for this infringing creator either but I messaged her on Sept. 30th with screenshots of the prior DMCA removals & all my evidence, and sent the co-owner a message in world along with a notecard. I sent Voshie a notecard too, stating the facts of the matter.
I didn’t hear from anyone until late on Oct 1, when the co-owner asked me to send evidence of the DMCA because she ‘isn’t a fan of hear-say’, so I let her know I already sent all that to Voshie on Discord, but that I’d see if there’s anything else I can add.

The messages and notecards screenshots are below, nothing exciting there but if a rumor gets spread that I ‘pressured’ them or did anything else beyond what any copyright holder would do, I want the actual evidence all in one place showing my actual - and fairly polite at that - messages.

She at least had responded, although the “I’m not a fan of hear-say’ felt a bit like an accusation after already being brushed off by Voshie. I gave her the benefit of the doubt tho that maybe she didn’t mean it that way.
I sent Voshie extra screenshots and info, none of it necessary to see that Fairyzette was a repeat infringer as I’d already sent sufficient proof of that. See for yourself below.

And at the end of the day on the 3rd, which was already open to bloggers, and the night before opening day, I asked Arséne if this was still being addressed. She said they were still setting up and it would take some time. I still had hoped that they would take care of it before the event opened and sales started, but that didn’t happen. (screenshot of whole chat log at the bottom)
Her booth was up & ready for business.

Because it seemed the event owners / organizers were not giving this issue the urgency it deserved, I opened the group chat - and saw OTHER complaints of infringement. I learned Neon Sheep was accused of selling copybotted items. Their stall is also gone now, maybe that was a valid claim?
So I mentioned my own copycat issue without even mentioning her name yet, and nearly instantly got chastised for it and locked out of the chat.

Honestly, that wasn’t surprising, but the final response kinda was. I was still holding out hope that they’d make up somehow for taking so long to take care of this or at least have a better explanation why, and in the middle of the night after a full day of possible sales I got a message saying:
”Set up is done & also I do not appreciate that you are pressuring us about this that much. Thats said: We removed her since you provided us with the DMCA & we are hoping this matter will resolve itself for you. Best of luck!”

Screenshot of chat with Arséne

That was the extent of our communications, the screenshots can speak for themselves.
Should ‘we’re setting up’ still be an acceptable excuse by the time the event opens, sales start, and they could be liable as participants in contributory or vicarious infringement?
Genuinely, I’m curious if this kind of delay is standard in SL for sales events or not, as my only other experience was an organizer who removed the content very quickly and without snark.

At least they did remove her booth, and I appreciate that they finally did what they were legally obligated to do.
I understand I may face backlash or exclusion for speaking out, but letting the public know what actually happened so misinformation doesn’t spread is important to me. I’d rather have the facts laid out here for all our sakes before a twisted version of events ends up on a site like the Virtual Burn Book.

I want honest customers who support artist rights to know when they may be unwittingly buying stolen IP based on my work, I know I would want to be informed.
