Eshi couldn’t wait to show me her newest dress but when I asked for a photo she explained that it had animation that couldn’t be seen in a photo. Of course, when I saw the dress, I was in awe. In her usual manner, Eshi combined pieces of sculpty, mesh and flexi prim to make a dress of extraordinary beauty—a walking sculpture.
The challenge was showing the dresses. I pinged my friend Iono Allen, who gave me a quick and dirty tutorial on doing machinima. I plopped myself on a rotating pose stand, struck a pose, and filmed the result under pumped up Windlight conditions. (Keep in mind I am TOTALLY a beginner—this is my very first time!) The result shows in these three movies. Click through to “see” the dress in its full glory and catch Aida Ewing’s beautiful skin peeking through the feathers.

Thank you to the amazing machinimist, Iono Allen, for the quick tutorial.
Is the dress static or does it move and flow? I am curious what it looks like when moving about. The clips above look beautiful, btw.
The feathers have slight flexi, the sculpted parts do not. Pieces are attached to shoulders, legs etc, so as the avatar moves, so do those. It’s not an entirely conventional piece of avatar wear.
Nice, very very nice! – Tab Scott
