I have a nice collection of full perm building components you can use in your builds as well. The full perms are intended for use as part of a larger commercial build, and cannot be sold, given away, or placed in a freebie store as is.

You can find these in the central store rotunda on Lunaria Emporium at both Wolf Territories Grid and Kitely Grid:

Main Store: grid.wolfterritories.org:8002:Lunaria Emporium - Main Store

Kitely Store: grid.kitely.com:8002:Lunaria Emporium

And many of my items are available on the Kitely Market here: https://www.kitely.com/market?store=13957705

Many of you know I have a lot of statues in my store, but I didn't set out originally to offer them. A few years ago I wanted one for a build I was doing at the time and found one on the Kitely Market. Wanting to add materials, I replaced the base texture with a marble and realized that all that was left was an amorphous blob that barely resembled the original statue. So I decided to see if there was a better way. The resulting workflow is pictured. I start out with real world scans of famous statues (such as Hebe pictured) that are readily available, and load it into Blender. Since it had 2 million faces, I needed to reduce the complexity to 80,000 faces or less to be able to upload it inworld but still have detail for those who are unable to use higher graphics. You can see the two models side-by-side in Blender. At that point I bake the normals to replace a lot of the details that were lost without increasing the complexity, then upload the less complex model and the new normalmap into opensim. The final photo is the result.

You can see all my statues on my store regions:

"Listen...perhaps you catch a hint of an ancient state of being not quite forgotten; dim, perhaps, and yet not altogether unfamiliar, like a song whose name is long forgotten, and the circumstances in which you heard it completely unremembered. Not the whole song has stayed with you, but just a little wisp of melody, not attached to any person, place, or anything particular. But you remember, from just this little part, how lovely was the song, how wonderful the setting where you heard it, and how you loved those who were there and listened with you.

Here is the memory of what you are.

You know the ancient song, and know it well. Nothing will ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn of love you still sing."

Group notices are borked even more than usual, so it looks like no one got my new group gift notice:

"There's a brand new group gift at the Emporium on Wolf Territories Grid, and you don't want to miss it! Look for the box in the lobby by the group joiner kiosk. Thank you again for your patronage!"

We're having a Christmas party today and you're all invited :-) All of my holiday and winter items in the party area will be free, along with skates in multiple colors with a built-in skating ao.

Party starts at 11 am grid time with DJ Illusions, then we have live music at 12 pm featuring our very own Lone Wolf.

I designed my logo a few years back to represent all my creative endeavors, but also to capture the esoteric essence of Luna, the triple Moon Goddess of legend. Triple moon because she is represented by the waning moon, the full moon, and the waxing moon. She has gone by many names over the ages: Luna, Selene, Hecate, Artemis, Diana, even Persephone at times. Her tripartite nature is embodied in the Three Graces, the Three Fates, the Three Muses, and the Three Stages of of the Feminine: Young Maiden, Mother, and the Experienced Elder. As her namesake, I bask in the light of her subtle inspiration falling around me on clear, hushed evenings, urging me to walk the path of love, to discover mystery in the simplest of things, and to be lost in wonder.

I love the Arthurian legends. Pictured here is my version of the round table, engraved on top with the Knights' Oath, and sitting on a platform with Merlin's triskelion symbol upon it in white, symbolizing a kingdom based on law and founded by magic. One of the chairs is called Siege Perilous, that would take the life of anyone who dared to sit in it save one: Galahad, who would find the Grail. On the walls are the Pendragon Shield and the Grail Tapestries. Unseen is King Arthur's sword Excalibur. All of these can be found at my stores along with a selection of castles.

I was so honored to be a featured destination for the HG Safari group this week ? You can read the blog by @Thirza Ember here:

We also visited Weltraumbahnhof, a great Opensim Hub built by Nasti and Rudy Bakerly on Soul Grid. You can read about it here:

There's a new Holiday display area at the Emporium on Wolf territories Grid. There you'll find ice to skate on and free skates in multiple colors with a skating AO built in (sorry, I know they're rollerblades. Haven't had time to bring the ice skates in yet). Click the Seasonal sign in the lobby to get there.
