I love this piece - it is a pendant that I hi-jacked from my daddies collection - this piece will be staying at home :)
Was a great sunset with major colour changes over about 45 minutes from our backyard. very hard to choose the nicest.
Small in stature but only small in that way
Lapis Lazuli took a deep breath and sang the last note of a long summer’s day
The electric blue horizon would soon turn to grey
So he thought up a new song to sing in the far off and away

Lapis lazuli -- the the colour of the sky, the colour of the deeps. Flecked with golden stars, symbol of life, of healing, of love, of immortality. Are we not all made immortal in love?
Some outfits we put together quite quickly, some finally click... this one is one I've been playing with a lot over the past two years, I think: I keep having this idea, this vision, and elements finally came together.
See, lapis lazuli is one of my two favourite precious stones (the other being opal), and when I saw the Pure Abyss skin from Fallen Gods, I knew that I wanted to pair it with the Damned hieroglyph tattoo that I had gotten from them a couple of years prior. Last year I found the Kintsugi golden tattoo from kosmii at Fantasy Faire... and it all started to come together.
The Merith outfit is from Faida, and it's just perfect: the linen is revealing, and maybe hinting at a mummy's wrappings. I modified it just a little using the textures edit tab: I tinted the linen just a little to give it more of a 'natural' look (and less white), and I took all of the metal bands and collar, and dialed up the specular reflection to make them shine like gold.
Add a few more jewelry pieces, and then the piece-de-resistance: the Starfire wings from aii & ego. These are highly customisable, with an extensive HUD. I played around, and managed to create a gold that satisfied -- and then went back and adjusted all of the other gold trim and jewelry that I could so that they all had the same gold tone -- not too yellow, not too white.
This year I've added the lovely lapis-and-gold Leight (Anubis) horns from A Fantastical notion, found at Fantasy Faire. Again, I did a little editing to dial up the specular reflection on the gold. To be sure, they look amazing as is, I just wanted a really high gloss.
Am I finished? Hardly. But... I am very proud of my lapis goddess.
Of course... I got to Alia's Jail-and-Bail this year, and found myself somewhat 'scooped' -- but more on that story tomorrow.

"Numa folha qualquer eu desenho um sol amarelo
E com cinco ou seis retas é fácil fazer um castelo
Corro o lápis em torno da mão e me dou uma luva
E se faço chover com dois riscos tenho um guarda-chuva [...]
Vamos todos numa linda passarela
De uma aquarela que um dia enfim
Descolorirá..."
