Tracing the Threads of History and Fantasy

DICTATORSHOP has added more pieces to the sexy and sumptous ClubNoir range. Using the Groove Chair and the Groove Lounger, each with a rich leather texture selected but you have other choices too (such as latex, and so many mix & match possibilities), I tried to create a private nightclub corner. The build is actually the Nautilus from Fanatik, which comes preset with a reflection probe and lighting, but I covered the walls with the curtains from the same set to make it more night club and less steampunk.

Both the Chair and the Lounger are packed full of animations and I love that these have a very large selection of excellent solo animations for both male and female avatars. I could easily find animations that showed off the furniture well and also for showing the sexy romper from the Muses, the cute Taffy hair from Wasabi (love the unusual pony tail and the pretty bow) and for doing close-ups to show the wonderful new Depthglass Eye System (mesh eyes that utilise BOM and a PBR lens, for amazing realism) from ContraptioN. As a result, there’s a lot of photos in this post!

I do have one complaint about the eyes, however. I ended up stuck for hours last week making my own eye textures because the Depthglass Eye System can make a more “basic” texture look amazing and now I can get exactly the colours I want.
