NEW - Daikon backpack, potted and... in a basket!

2011-01-18T00:16:00.007+01:00

I guess many of you already know how much I like to create silly little items and characters, so here's my new creation...

Say hello to little Daikon!

He likes to travel...

...and always enjoys a nice garden view...

...but he doesn't mind a little rest from time to time...

He has a funny little face that he can "hide" if you need him a little more "sober" (kawaii and plain versions are both included).

Come say hello to him here...
...or introduce him to your friends here (SL Marketplace)

NEW - YUKI Sweaters and MORE LEGGINGS!

2010-12-25T20:17:00.004+01:00

NEW YUKI SWEATER and WOOL LEGGINGS

The YUKI sweaters are completely SCULPTED. They are MOD, COPY and scripted for resize. Since SL female shapes are very very different one from the other, and making a sculpty that can fit anybody is next to impossible, an alpha layer is provided for optimal fitting.

They're available in all these colours:

I've also made matching colours leggings. Both versions are included!

Werewolf? There wolf!

2009-10-26T18:55:00.006+01:00

Tired of being a neko/fox/fluffy bunny?
Become a werewolf today! "How?" you might ask... nothing simpler with the new "Werewolf insta-kit"™ provided by: yours truly, Alia Baroque of Fallen Gods Inc. & MissAllSunday Lemon of Wasabi Pills.

Ahahaha... Alia Baroque of Fallen Gods Inc. just came out with her new selection of "Hybrid" skins and me and Miss joined forces to provide accessories for the perfect wolf look.

This is my part:

WEREWOLF EARS & CLAWS
The werewolf ears come in two versions (both in the same package): plain & decorated. They're thought specifically for the new Fallen Gods Inc.' Hybrid Fur skins, the jewellery is texture change and you can choose among 4 colours, which are the ones in which the skins are offered.
The claws have the same textures option. Please bear in mind that they won't attach properly in no-script zones and that they might not work with some AOs (blame the way SL works, not me)

Aren't you dying to look like this?
Get the Fur skins here: Fallen Gods Inc. Island
Get the hair here: Wasabi Pills Main Store
Ears and Claws can be found in my main store (link on the right of the page) AND in any of the previous two.

The skins are provided in male AND female versions, the accessories (hair included) are all UNISEX and already sized for the original shapes (but also fully MOD, so that you can adapt them to your shape easily).

HALLOWEEN GOODNESS!

2009-10-26T15:09:00.002+01:00

Halloween is approaching and I coulnd't resist making some new pretty items in theme with the holiday ^^

OBAKE HALLOWEEN SET
A cute scene composed by a little tree, a couple of pumpkins and a little japanese ghost. It includes 3 custom (and adjustable) poses for all your pic-taking needs (I know you like to show off on Flickr).
The ghost is unlinked so... if you're not really into japanese ghosts (but please don't tell the little guy, he's pretty sensitive and he'll probably hate you forever), you can use the tree and pumpkins alone.
All the sculpties are custom made by yours truly in 3d Studio Max, and so are the textures ^^

OBAKE CHAIR
It includes 4 custom poses for endless (and pretty silly) fun with your friends (yes, 4 people can sit at once, or 3, or 2, or 1... or just place it somewhere with no one sitting on it... well, you got the point).
It definitely won't passed unnoticed in your neighborhood, I promise.

DECORATION PUMPKINS v2 - COMPLETE PACK

DECORATION PUMPKINS v2 - GLOOMY PACK

DECORATION PUMPKINS v2 - JUICY PACK
As the name suggests, their purpose is to decorate around (clever, uh?). They come in the traditional orange colour (plus a deeper orange shade) and a more "peculiar" purple colour... because nobody had made purple pumpkins yet.
They're mod and copy, so you can vary them in size and grief your neighbours with huge pumpkins or get mad at that pumpkin you made so small that you can't find it anymore... or just attach them to your head and be a dork, it's fun.
Oh, BTW, they're only 1 prim.

EVERYTHING YOU SEE ABOVE IS AVAILABLE ALSO ON XSTREET, just follow the link on the right to be taken to my Xstreet store.

LONG TIME NO SEE...

2009-10-26T14:16:00.017+01:00

Almost one year without updates... wow.
Well, I have an excuse for at least part of that year: I moved to China and, when I first arrived here, I discovered that almost all the blogs were censored... including mine.

But fear no more! The great firewall of China has been defeated and so had been my laziness (hopefully ;) ).

Just for completeness, here's what's been released in these months:

FRUTTA TOPS
8 different colours and 2 textures each (strawberries and cherries). They have sculpted cuffs and bottom!

FRUTTA PANTS
7 different colours. they include sculpted cuffs (scripted for texture change independently) and a sculpted belt with a little bag attached. The bag features all the textures of the Frutta tops and it's, of course, scripted for texture change.

FLEUR DE VIE DRESS
It comes in 8 colours and it's scripted for resize!

MR. ROBOTO BACKPACK
Your new best friend... he came out of the depths of 3d Studio with "shiny" rusty textures ;)

MAREEA OUTFIT
Created for Rezzable's "Swansong", the last fashion event in Black Swan SIM.
Inspired by the purest essence of the sea, thought to make you feel like a goddess rising from the waves.
It includes jewellery also and everything is scripted for resize/modify etc...

WATERMELON SOFA
I know what you're thinking "hey everybody and their grandmother have done watermelons"... I know, I know... but have you seen any this cool?
It includes 2 custom sit poses and giant watermelon seeds to decorate around!

KOKESHI DOLLS
These are available in Cioccolata SIM until the 31st of October, afterwards they'll be in my main store.
Just 10L$ to try your luck at the gatcha machine, you can get the necklace or the decorating versions in many many different colours and textures ^^

And this is the end of this giant post... pheew.

NEW AXIS MUNDI EXCLUSIVE ITEM!!!

2008-12-18T23:49:00.003+01:00

I've made a black version of the "bambi" Winterproof Sweater exclusively for the Axis Mundi SIM:

WINTERPROOF SWEATER - AXIS MUNDI EXCLUSIVE

It costs only 25L$ and it's going to be available for the holiday season only in Axis Mundi SIM together with other awesome items by Axis Mundi merchants each for as little as 25L$ or less!

A white version is currently available as a prize in the OZ Candy Cane Frolic in Magic of Oz SIM and if you didn't participate to QRI hunt, I'm afraid you missed the grey one...

...stay tuned for more bambies ^^

P.S. They go extremely well with the skirts of my Black Swan outfit "Not Your Average Fairytale" ;)

NOT YOUR AVERAGE FAIRYTALE

2008-12-16T11:01:00.007+01:00

As I promised, here are the pics of the new dresses in Black Swan ^^

NOT YOUR AVERAGE FAIRYTALE in charcoal/gold

NOT YOUR AVERAGE FAIRYTALE in charcoal/purple

NOT YOUR AVERAGE FAIRYTALE in charcoal/red

NOT YOUR AVERAGE FAIRYTALE in charcoal/teal

"Not Your Average Fairytale" or as I like to call it "Heidi (yes, the little swiss girl :D) went gothic lolita and fell down the rabbit hole", I told this to Rezzable's staff, but they must have thought I was joking and didn't even mention my extremely clever renaming of the outfit :D
The tops and the gloves are totally hand-painted (as in "I will do these as if I'm painting with oil and fuck the perfect seams for once, I want them to look as if they were -in fact- painted with oil"... which is actually what I used... well, the digital -Corel Painter- version of it); everything else is sculpties with baked textures... oh, and for the record, that "thing at the top of the skirt which I don't know how to call in english... the one with a different colour for every outfit in other words" is NOT a prim with an alpha texture applied, it's a sculptie with that shape... just in case you were wondering. I've used the same technique for the Mellow skirts and it's something I haven't seen used in clothes yet.

These are going to be available only in Black Swan SIM (SLUrl) until the 9th of January, after that date they will be in my main store.

Go check 'em out even if the poster pics suck (they definitely look better live and I'm terrible with vendor pics lately XD).

WINTER MAGIC @ BLACK SWAN

2008-12-15T12:54:00.003+01:00

Winter Magic @ Black Swan, starting on December 15th at 2 pm SLT.

I'll post pics of my outfits as soon as they let me ;)

FROSTED STRAWBERRIES!!!

2008-12-15T12:36:00.006+01:00

I've decided to make a winter -frosted- version of the strawberries!

The Frosted Strawberry Chair has a different pose than the "summer" one, it emits snow particles which can be toggled ON/OFF on touch and it has sculpted icicles!

FROSTED STRAWBERRY CHAIR
15 prims with shadows, 14 without, both versions included!

The Frosted Strawberry Backpack too has snow particles and dangling icicles :)

FROSTED STRAWBERRY BACKPACK

...and this time there's a special strawberry...

FROSTED STRAWBERRY

This one is an Axis Mundi exclusive, it costs only 25L$ and can be found only at this location

MELLOW SKIRTS + WINTERPROOF SWEATERS

2008-12-15T12:12:00.006+01:00

The Mellow Skirts and the Winterproof Sweaters are meant to go together, but are sold as separates so you can mix and match them as you please ^^ They work very well as stand alone too!

MELLOW SKIRTS & WINTERPROOF SWEATERS

The skirts come in 16 colours and the sweaters in 15 colours, both sober and totally crazy for endless colour combinations! A free pack of matching socks is available in store :)

Since the proper fitting of the skirt can be not so obvious, here you have some images which will hopefully help you:

JUST FOR COMPLETENESS

2008-12-15T12:03:00.006+01:00

"Old" item I've never blogged (I haven't updated anything since October actually... well I'm updating now :D):

DECORATION PUMPKINS
They come in 6 different sizes and two different shades of orange! 7 prims with shadow and 6 without, both versions included :)

WAITING FOR HALLOWEEN...

2008-10-01T01:06:00.005+02:00

First Halloween inspired releases:

Pumpkin Chair!
Gosh I made a pic with the two avatar seated just to realize that the pumpkin couldn't be seen properly, well, the pic now probably sucks, but the pumpkin rocks, trust me :)
BTW, the script will give you the stupid "PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION permission not set" on the first rez (your avatar will sit properly anyway), I'm still trying to figure out why exactly because the script had worked perfectly fine until now (and it is the same I've made for the Strawberry Chair which won't give you this message), I guess I'll found a fix sooner or later *shakes fist at SL*
SL took it in the @ss this time, I FIXED IT!!! :D

Pumpkin Backpack!
Because I can :D

From tomorrow the dresses I've made for Passions of Black Swan will be available in my store, in case you were wondering what would have happened to them after the event :)

THE DAY HAS COME!

2008-09-15T19:45:00.005+02:00

PASSIONS of BLACK SWAN will start in one hour (12pm SL time) and as I promised, three new outfits there:

Liquid Flower in BLACK/PEACH

Liquid Flower in BLACK/PURPLE

Liquid Flower in BLACK/SEA

Hope to see you there :)

NEW IN STORE + PASSIONS OF BLACK SWAN

2008-09-14T07:25:00.009+02:00

New stripey sets in 3 juicy colours ^^

GRAPE

LIME

PINK

I've had the great honour to be invited to participate to "Passions of Black Swan", a fashion event which will take place on the 15th of September in Black Swan SIM. The event will last until the 30th of September and you'll find 3 new Rebel Xtravaganza outfits there!!! Remember that during the event the entrance to Black Swan will be totally free... so why not coming? ;)
More infos HERE

Sneak peek of my outfit (can't show you more... yet):

One of the outfits with horrid PS filter :D

NEW SILLINESS!!!

2008-08-13T22:06:00.005+02:00

BOOOM!!!

BOMB! Backpack GREY

BOMB! Backpack PINK

Oh...when will this weirdness end?!

Well, I guess watching Heroes might have influenced me in this, anyway, here's the new BOMB! Backpack (crowd applauding in awe).

It comes in two versions: the Grey one and the Pink one... I've named them after the ropes colour, but basically the real options are the different coloured particles... you get orange-reddish-yellow sparkles with the "sober" (LOL) Grey version, or aqua/lime sparkles with the flashy Pink version (colour of the ropes can be changed anyway, since they are MOD). Particles can be turned ON/OFF by touching the bomb if they really annoy you :)

AND THE NEW ITEM IS... (DRUM ROLL)

2008-08-04T08:01:00.003+02:00

...a soap...yes, seriously.

BUBBLY SOAP BACKPACK

Scripted for colour change and bubbles -SKULLY bubbles- on/off...all by myself, I must be a genious.
It's nice...really...get it :)

WOHOO A NEW UPDATE ALREADY!

2008-07-20T05:19:00.003+02:00

A nice companion for Princess P.

Zombie Kuma Backpack

If you don't know why this should go with the Ghost Princess P. outfit you lose and I win because I know it :P

I HAZ STRAWBERRIEZ!

2008-07-17T09:29:00.008+02:00

I've been thinking for quite a while to make something related with fruits and well...here are the first items: STRAWBERRIESSSSSSSSSSS!!!

STRAWBERRY Chair
Sculpted "chair" with baked-in shadows (because now Rouge has understood how to do that in 3d studio :D)

STRAWBERRY Backpack
Cute, cute, cute and extremely silly as well :D

...and TEH new FREEBIE!!!

Who wants more fruit?

NEW RELEASES + CHINA WOOT!!!

2008-06-27T23:36:00.006+02:00

Latest release from Rebel Xtravaganza:

ATOMIC Eyes SCRIPTED Version
The package contains system and scripted prim eyes (for both eyes) in two versions and 10 colours!!! One version is scripted for custom colour change (chat command) and the other for automatic change so you can watch your eyes change colour every 10 seconds :D I'm the lag queen, yay!

What about China then? Well, dear ol' Rouge will move to Shanghai next year to improve her chinese (yes, I'm a chinese language student)... and apparently, we foreigners are "aliens" in China: I am laowai clip XD

NEW RELEASES!

New items available in MAIN STORE:

STORE INFO & POLICY - UPDATED 15/11/2010

2008-06-19T22:52:00.006+02:00

!* Rebel Xtravaganza *! main store is currently located in Meow SIM.

!* Rebel Xtravaganza *! focuses mainly on clothes and accessories (mostly for girls now, but the male section will expand soon... I hope), but it offers also cute furniture and home decor. I tend not to follow fashion trends too much, I do what I like to wear or have in my home, not what fashion magazines say it's good to have (unless I like it very much, but still with my personal twist :D)... I hope you'll appreciate this approach and if not, it's full of stores out there, which do exactly what I don't... :)

NOW PLEASE READ THIS IF YOU WANT TO HAVE A BETTER SL SHOPPING EXPERIENCE:

HOW DO I KNOW ABOUT ITEMS PERMISSIONS?
They're usually clearly stated on my panels, if you're unsure, just click on "buy" on the pie menu and you will see the specific permission for every item in the package. You won't actually buy anything until you click on "buy" again in the new window, so don't worry about that ;)

HOW DO I KNOW WHAT'S INCLUDED IN THE PACKAGE I'M BUYING AND WHAT'S NOT?
Again, you'll see everything you need to know written on panels, so, please, read it carefully BEFORE buying. If unsure, use the "buy" option to see what's inside as written above.

HOW DO I BUY SOMETHING AS A GIFT?
You have two options:
...either go to my SL Marketplace page which is located here and use the "send as gift" option
...or follow these instructions:
create a new notecard, change the title to "FROM: YOUR FULL NAME - GIFT REQUEST" or something similar, but, PLEASE, be sure your FULL NAME is in the title (and preferably IN the notecard AS WELL). Then, in the notecard, write the name of the recipient (FULL NAME) and the item/s you would like them to get (please try to be as accurate as possible about the name of the items and colours to avoid mistakes ;) ). Open my profile (my SL name is Rouge Darcy in case it wasn't clear) and drag and drop the notecard on my profile. Then simply wait for my reply (which doesn't take more than some hours usually. If I'm away for some days, you'll see that written on my profile in any case).
Don't use IMs unless your 100% sure that I'm online, they get capped pretty easily and therefore LOST... FOREVER... REALLY! :)

DO YOU REFUND/EXCHANGE ITEMS?
ONLY if you buy the SAME item twice by mistake or because of SL lag AND the item is marked as NO TRANS. Just tell me about it (by notecard please) and I'll refund the double item, or exchange it with something else.

MY PRIM SKIRT / SHOES / WHATEVER DOESN'T FIT ME PROPERLY, WHAT DO I DO?
SL shapes can be very different from each other, so chances are that prims won't end up in the exact spot I've meant them to end or that some items will be too big or too small for your shape.
All prim items that can incur in this "problem" are MOD or scripted, so that you can adapt them to your shape. If you don't know how to modify them, please have a look at Torley Linden's video tutorials, they cover a lot of useful topics and some of them will explain you exactly what you need to know in order to modify your prims better than any written explanation.
If you're still not able to modify the items yourself, please let me know (always by notecard) and I'll see what I can do to help you :)

DO YOU DO CUSTOM WORKS?
It depends... on time at disposal and on me liking the project basically. So try asking, the worst that can happen is me saying "sorry, no" ;)

I'VE BOUGHT "INSERT ITEM NAME HERE" FROM YOU, SL TOOK MY MONEY, BUT I DIDN'T RECEIVE ANYTHING
This is a pretty common SL issue and unfortunately I can't do anything to prevent it.
If it happens, go to the Second Life website, log in and click on "Transaction history" in "My Account". Scroll your history until you find the failed transaction, copy and paste everything about it in a notecard, change the title to "FROM: YOUR FULL SL NAME - FAILED TRANSACTION" or something similar (but don't forget your FULL name or I won't be able to get back to you) and drag and drop it from your inventory to my profile. I'll get back to you as soon as possible :)

That's it for now, if your question is not replied here feel free to drop me a notecard :)

INTRODUCTION

2008-06-19T22:41:00.005+02:00

Welcome to Rebel Xtravaganza's SL Store blog.
Here you'll find mainly updates about my SL shop and useful infos as long as useless blabbering, occasional rants and random pictures about my SL experience.

Judging by my laziness and lack of time, store updates will most likely be the most preminent topic, so don't worry too much about useless stuff being published (and in any case you still have the option of skipping that) ;)

Enjoy!
