So much going on at ~SongBird~!

its halloween time! i’m not dead i promise! i’ve been taking a break, and totally forgot to tell you guys about twisted hunt last month. i hope you won’t kill me for that, but i do hope many of you checked it out on your own because i know you’re all cool like that and probably love twisted hunt as much as i do.

ANYWAY, i will do my best not to forget to tell you about that next time.

i am in 4 different events this month! all of them are starting very soon!

Nowhere:
Pulse games’ yearly halloween game has begun. from now until when ever they close it (they never give an end date!) you can play through an awesome and creepy story game full of scares and mystery, and along the way, pick up free gifts from many stores including mine!
~SongBird~ Fogbound Eyes
my item this year is a set of eyes, each colour is hidden within the game. there are 6 boxes to find in all!

Trick Or Treat:
trick or treat is a very cool family friendly trick or treat hunt. starting october 23rd, you find little brooms to get stamps on a hud, and then redeem them in the prize room. along the way you can shop in the vendors’ markets for more halloween goodies.
~SongBird~ Stick-on Face Tattoos
my prize for this event is a set of 4 stick on face tattoos, on both tattoo layer and omega applier for mesh heads that have cheek makeup areas available (please check your specific head before applying)

Bloody Horror Fair:
i am so excited to be involved in this event! i made two new gory items exclusive to the event! starting on october 25th, you can find these two items only at this event!

~SongBird~ Weird THING II
weird THING II is a sequel to the weird THING tentacles i made a few years ago. this set works perfectly with those and you can wear them all together for a really gross look!

~SongBird~ Shards
Shards is a bunch of glass shoved into your chest and wrists, with lots of blood dripping everywhere. pretty self explanatory.

oh! and i snuck an item from the upcoming project i’m doing with my best friend.
private collection is a set of 3 frames with blood splatters. yes i was inspired by dexter :p.

Hocus Pocus:
this event is in my mainstore and starts on october 24th. every day you can hop into the store and try to win my special prize by saying the magic words! you get one chance a day until the end of the event. if you don’t wanna go through all that, you can also just buy the item for 50L from the vendor next to the magic jar.
~SongBird~ I've Been Poisoned!
my prize for hocus pocus is a poison bottle prop and 4 different poses. the bottle its self is 1LI if you just want to use it for decor, but you can also hold it while doing these different poses for all your poisoning photography needs.

Other Interesting Stuff:

because standard sizes are no longer very popular due to mesh bodies, i have permanently slashed the prices on all mesh clothing in the store that does not have a fitted size! that’s basically all of it! so if you are still using standard size mesh, now is the time to grab these items! i will be retiring them to the marketplace only after jan. 1st.

my best friend and i are collabing on a new store that will be opening in a couple of months! we will be making homes and furniture. its nothing like what you see at ~Songbird~ but so far stuff is coming together nicely. keep an eye out for BlackWood Homes and Furnishings in the very near future.

vampires and lots of eyeballs

first up, vampire chronicles!

i’ve made a couple of special items for this event:

~SongBird~ Blood Doll

blood doll is a cute sweater and skirt set with and without messy blood. hud driven and mesh in standard sizes as well as a fitted mesh version!

~SongBird~ Love Bite

love bite is a bloody bite mark on the neck with blood trailing down into the cleavage/chest area.  tattoo layer version as well as appliers for slink physique and the omega applier system.
 
  the vampire chronicles is a week long event with a lot of great shops!
 
 
  In the main store:
  ~Songbird~ Dark Fae Eyes
 
  the dark fae eyes from this month’s horror haute are now available in the shop
 
  ~SongBird~ Dark Fae for Utilizator Avatars
 
  a version of the dark fae eyes for utilizator heads. these eyes will work on all the M3 heads as well as the kemono head.
 
  ~SongBird~ Liquid Eyes for Utilizator Avatar Heads
 
i also dug some old eye textures out of the vault to create some cute cartoony eye appliers for utilizator heads!

more utilizator eyes are in the work, i am working to convert all of my human eye collections over to the appliers!

making sure your halloween is nice and gross

lots of goodies released this week and more on the way!

first up: System Failure
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Pulse/206/105/30

if you have never been to a Sn@tch/Pulse Halloween game, please take the time to go to this! i love these things and i’ve been running around in them since i found out about them years ago. they are so much fun and you end up with a lot of awesome goodies from some great stores.

SD-POLISHED-COLOURS-EYES-AD
i have hidden several eyes inside the game in random spots. they are free and not that hard to find. so you have no excuse not to pick these up!

there is also a gift shop after the game and i have these awesome shirts for guys and girls:
SB-HORRORQUOTES-MALE-AD

SB-HORRORQUOTES-FEMALE-AD

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

next up!  Horrorfest 2013
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Love%20Dolls%20Island/136/159/48

i am so excited for this because i have made some really awesome items for charity and i’m seriously proud! i decided to make items that represented three of my favourite horror films; the thing, carrie, and the texas chainsaw massacre.

SB-WILLYOUSTILLLOVEME-AD
will you still love me is my tribute to carrie. a dress and all over blood layer with appliers for slink hands and feet.

SB-WEIRDTHING-AD
my tribute to the THING. a scary set of original mesh attachments and a tattoo layer to make you look like the alien’s next victim. mouth and chest are separate so wear them together or just wear one!

SB-BUBBASBESTFRIEND-GREEN-AD
this beautiful thing is my favourite of all the horrorfest items. bubba’s best friend is my tribute to the texas chainsaw massacre. completely original mesh and textures made by yours truly over the course of a month. this took forever and i am so happy to have it finished. 4 colours to choose from, each with three different texture options. the perfect prop for any horror scene.

SB-SILVERPOLISHED-EYES-AD
horrorfest also has a hunt that sends you to each participants’ shop. my offering for that is a special silver version of the polished eyes.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

finally, opening on the 26th of this month, a more family friendly event, the trick or treat neighborhood.

Trick Or Treat!
this event is for sl parents and sl kids so my item is a bit tame, but its still awesome! i made a really cute set of devil horns and a pitchfork that fits adults and children. this item will be totally free for any trick or treaters who stop by between october 26th and november 2nd. i will put out an lm for that when it opens.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

and FINALLY. there’s actually a couple of new releases in the shop!

SB-THEREWILLBEBLOOD-AD

basic hand and foot blood with slink appliers and tattoo layer.

SB-HAILSATAN-NAILS-AD

and a cute set of satanism inspired nails.

New Special Effects Layers!

~SongBird~ Purge~SongBird~ Gouged

2 new releases for you. well sorta new. gouged is an old fave of mine that i made for LuNi, and i decided to bring it back because it was so awesome. the original design used invisible prims to remove your eyes but i have replaced that with an alpha layer since invisiprims do not work with shadows. because of this, you have to use a prim eye to wear the right side or left side only versions, so i’ve included them at no extra cost along with the double eye version!

purge is a full set of the gift i made for the twisted hunt last year for fall. you can get it in a fatpack of all colours, or singles!

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
!Coming Soon!

i have obtained the Slink applier dev kit and will be making some nail polish, as well as adding appliers for my tights and anything using hand and feet (so like my stigmata layers, or heart’s filthy lesson) so that you can use my products with the awesome new slink applier system!

i have been accepted to Goth Fair 2013! and i am so excited because i really love the charity they are donating to! its not until may so we’ve got a while before that but yay! excited!

Just In Time For Valentine’s Day

Heart's Filthy LessonHeart's Filthy Lesson Pose Pack

a sucking chest wound!

the idea for this came from a very cool movie called After Life which i recommend you see!

the body fx comes on the tattoo layer, with or without hand blood. and as a bonus i also made a Lola Tangos applier so busty girls can use it too!

to compliment the body fx, i have made a set of 3 poses with a sculpted heart to hold for your very own morbid valentine’s day card.

also important: New Vendor System!

i have finally gotten my hands on a more robust vendor system! slowly i am trying to get all of my vendors switched over to the new script.

what does this mean for you?
-all customers will now be able to get a credit for purchasing from the store

-members of the VIP group will be given a higher % of credit when wearing their group tag while purchasing from the store

-gift cards are coming!

-redelivery terminal is coming!

and the big one that i love:
NO MORE BOXES!

this new vendor system can send you a folder so no more unpacking 😀 the only time you will receive a box is if someone purchases a gift for you because the vendor cannot send a folder as a gift.

if you shop at the store in the next few days, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let me know if anything goes wrong!

also starting now, as soon as i figure out the credit system, if you purchase something from a vendor that i haven’t switched to the new format i will add credit to your account manually.
