First Build in Second Life.

I've been in Second Life since 2005 (give or take a few long breaks) but I've never actually had a shot at building anything. So, yesterday, I headed over to the ABC Island Sandbox (when I talk about SL I'll link locations with their SL url so you can go straight there!) and started creating. Here's what I came up with (as always, click the image to view them at their full size):


It's not the best build in the world but I think it's a pretty good effort for my first time, even if the checkered design is horrible! It even has an opening and closing door (the darker area) although I can't take the credit for that because it was just ripped off a house I had bought earlier. I'm looking forward to playing around with building more since I find it highly enjoyable.

I've also undergone a bit of a makeover, which was probably needed. Here's what I used to look like:


That scooter was a nifty little thing! Here's what I look like now:



I thought I'd see how she handled the pole! As you can see I still play a woman because I take Second Life literally and actually live a Second Life. What's the point in playing a guy when I'm a guy in real life? I don't think I'm tricking anyone by pretending to be a woman because it's not like I'll ever meet any of the friends I make in SL in my real life. Anyway, I've talked about my stance on this before so I'm not going to get into it again, I'm just having some virtual fun.
