One thing I didn’t expect at all was that some designers would actually start spending their time designing me stuff. Well, I got served pretty good. Not only one, but two designers delivered me a very special gift in the same week.

I mentioned them before but I thought it deserved a post on their own, just to state on how much I felt honored by the gesture. Those lovelies actually spent HOURS of their precious time making this for lil old me? OK girls. You got me. I’m falling on my ass.

Beware, you peepz know I certainly don’t pretend to be anything like a fashionista or fashion blogger. So in a blocky fashion, here is a bit more about those incredible outfits, with pictures of myself modelling them, and stuff.

Codie’s Gown - From Nuclear Boutique

Sasy Scarborough introduced me to Arikinui Adria (AKA Ari), and in the first instant I talked to this adorable woman, I was charmed. It didn’t take long before I invited her to Boudoir Rouge, because her name means sophistication and beauty and sexy.

One night she totally blew my mind when I saw that item drop into my inventory. I saw the name and I was like, no fucking way! And I put it on and it was perfection.

I have a HARD time finding fitting system skirts, mainly because some designers don’t check their skirts on larger avatars, and they put the texture topping too low. Result is I end up with a ring of emptiness around the waist. Not with this one, it is a perfect fit.

Fluffy prims are attached on shins, making it hugging the legs pretty nicely. Very elegant soirée gown, probably one of the best I own. Honnest! Tho I admit there may be a bit of favoritism, I let you be the judges.

Codie’s Gown is available through this SLURL. Check Nuclear Boutique’s Blog for more info.

Codie Corset - Bluebell Fasions

How an amazing gift Roxette Wise made me for the Boudoir Rouge launch party. This 4 variation set of lingerie with corset is nothing short of amazing. I sure own a few lingerie sets, and this is one of the good ones. And well, the color scheme is so me

Roxette posted about it on Bluebell Fashion’s blog.

Available on OnRez, SLX or inworld.

Also, I would like to mention that Dinee Ghia made me an adorable necklace using my logo. Picture of it follows. It’s lovely sweetheart, TY so so much, big smoochies!

Like if that was not enough, I heard some other things were on preparation for me. Will keep you posted as it comes. You people always amaze me. Much ♥♥♥.

I will be giving a 1h presentation on making Machinima movies at Orange Island on Thursday this week, 9h30AMSLT, for Orange’s Machinima Week. Check the schedule for more information.

After much success with the Boudoir Rouge poseset, and needing more poses to finish the series, I decided to custom order another 40 poses set from Alexx Markova. They are also now for sale, for your own enjoyment.

THE STORY

This 40 poses set has been custom designed for the Boudoir Rouge photo series created by artist and photographer CodeBastard Redgrave.

You can see the Boudoir Rouge series on Flickr here:

They have been created by Alexx Markova on special order. 40 new poses have been custom made by Alexx for the remaining of the Boudoir Rouge series. This set focuses mainly on back shot poses, lingerie and intimate poses, as well as more classic pinup and boudoir style poses.

One important thing about those poses is they have been created and ajusted to fit my own avatar shape which is more curvy than the average woman shapes, making them fit for the round women as well as thinner ones.

I throughly reviewed, tested and made correction requests to avoid any limb or finger collision, cause as little articulation deformation as possible, and minimize clothing glitches as much as possible. With such tough revision cycle, I wanted to insure that I would have poses which requires less postprocessing.

This poseset is the product of a close collaboration with Alexx Markova and myself for all aspects of the process. Alexx did the all the execution and I helped him review and correct the poses for better photography usage. Of course I’m proud of having the opportunity to bring you this very special poseset.

I really hope you will enjoy those poses as much as I enjoyed working with them.

Very yours,

Codie <3

I got commissioned by Jacek Antonelli of Cuddlefish Junction to make a demo of her Bubble Ride product, so I thought I could as well make it artsy and nice to look at. So I used Windlight to capture this movie, using a mix of presets and custom settings for the sky and water. I then made the final cut and editing using Sony Vegas.

Hope you will enjoy it, especially on this extended downtime day.

How cute is that. How never dreamed of riding a bubble? Well this is the perfect occasion as Jacek Antonelli AKA Cuddlefish launches her new product, the Bubble Ride, a clear bubble vehicle launcher. You herd right! One touch on the bubble launcher and it pops you a new bubble, you click on the bubble and you ride it! You pretty much go with the wind but the bubble has controls that allows you to change direction and go upwards/downwards. Of course it doesn’t turn on a dime but hey! It’s awesome and it’s beautiful and not possible in real life. And it’s awesome fun.

Furthermore, as of sheer vanity, just check who’s on this Cuddlefish Junction poster, floating delightfully. I is purring in delight. ^^

I am really proud to introduce you a new 40 poseset that was custom designed for the Boudoir Rouge photo series.

They have been created by Alexx Markova on special order. 20 poses were already made by Alexx but already used for Boudoir Rouge, and 20 more poses, the Lingerie and Pin-up series, has been ordered and made custom especially for the picture series.

One important thing about those poses is they have been created and ajusted to fit my own avatar shape which is more curvy than the average woman shapes, making them fit for the round women as well as thinner ones.

I throughly reviewed, tested and made correction requests to avoid any limb or finger collision, cause as little articulation deformation as possible, and minimize clothing glitches as much as possible.
