OK... so once again, time marches on...

Alright folks... just to keep you all up to speed on what's been happening on the Discord Designs fromnt in the last week...

Well... We've opened a franchise in the 'Hair n Shoes Required' mall on Lucid Dreams to what so far appears to be a rather smal customerbase... there have been some sales, but things aren't overly promising as yet... but never mind... early days...

Dexter was launched on Thursday... yes... tht's the balding style... and again, things have been relatively slow... but that could well be the nature of the grid at the moment... or maybe it's to revolutionary in a world where everyone is young and beautiful to offer a "solar powered sex machine" hairdo...

Finally we've also launched a range of a dozen neko / cat eyes for your perusal... 15l a pop, like the others... and rather fun... so do have a look... tese are available only at the main store so do swing by for a nose..

Until next time, wen there'l be some photo updates...

I'll see your nine and raise you thirty...

OK guys and girls... there are now so many eyes in-store that they have been shifted to a purpose built area just past the office... Yes... The eye hut is open, holding no fewer than 39 different colors to choose from... All the colors of the bow, no less... including some utterly beautiful multiway ones that have to be tried to be believed... Luna is lovely... but Terra and Nebula have to be my favourites... So give them a look... or even just pick 'em up and se for yourself... That's $L15 apiece, people... you cannot go wrong here!

Also noteworthy is that, time permitting next week, the first Discord Designs franchise will be opening... I'll fill you in as and when there's stuff to see, but overall it should be a goodie... That's if the guys advertising the mall are up to thier word!

Still... finer notes... Criss is now reloaded live in 48 colors, rather than 32... Tori and Marion are set to follow soon. Dexter is in second phase development and is set to be tinted and cloned by the end of the week... So...

Busy busy busy!

and watch this space as always!

Until, next time,

I really must stop distracting myself...

Every once in a while I get a hairbrained idea... as you well know by now, all those who read this. The latest was no different. I've been debating the logistics of expanding the shape packages I intend to offer to include skins, hair and eyes to make an all-in-one instant avatar for a reasonable rate...

Well... that's all great in principle, but it means learning a hell of a lot about how graphics software works... and no, I've not succumbed and picked up a copy of Photoshop. I've been yutzing about with my ancient Heath-Robinson technology and created the easier of the two texture-based deals... eyes!



Naturally, I'm telling you this as the vendor is now live... and pictured above... so do come and give them a look! They're up in the accessories gazebo, and in true Discord Designs tradition, they're cheap and cheerful. Hope you like!

Until next time,

Now that was a day and a half...

Jude is now tinted, cloned, vendor loaded, fatpacks assembled and live...
Knock yourselves out people!

Uh... right... more info might be nice...

OK... Jude retails in 48 rather than 32 colorways (as discussed before) for $L99 a color, or in packs of 12 colors (related ones, you'll be pleased to know) for $L349...

Naturally the biggie of all 48 colors is out at a modest $L699 a throw... that's 48 colors for the price of 7... can't say fairer than that now can you?

Do give it a look... I feel it marks a return to form for me after the last two offerings which, lets be honest, haven't gone down too well...

Until next time,

Kalli

New products - 2 hairs and a shape

Ugh... I completely forgot to mention! Evidently not got my head screwed on!

DDL and Martha have been live for a while. Jude is still to come, but will be the first up in the new colors... and just to be nice, nobody misses out as it's unisex. Enjoy!





Until next time,

Jet is the new black...

Hey all... I've been sat on my ever expanding butt doing nothing again!

Wait? No! That can't be right!!

Well... yes and no... I've not made a lot of hair of late... but I've redesigned the Discord Designs palette, taking the range from 32 to 48 colors... Including a new black - well... two... after hearing people complain that Midnight wasn't dark enough I've not only gone and created Jet, which is as black as you please, but Onyx, which is still black, but not as dark as Jet, but still darker than Midnight...

Oh hell... I'm never going to be able to explain this clearly, so I'll do what I always resort to and hoof up an image, although be warned, it's a biggie... All in all there are seven new darks (Jet, Onyx, Gunmetal, Anthracite, Liquorice, Espresso and Pepper), 5 new reds (Lava, Auburn, Bronze, Pavlova and Sherbet), 2 new lights (Copper and Silver) and 2 more unaturals - Leaf and Cobalt - as I didn't feel I offered a reasonable mid-blue or mid-green.



The main push has been to resolve the derth of dark natural colors in the range, with more grays, auburns and browns added to bulk the lines. Also note that the decision to create fatpacks of 12, rather than ten colors has been made - these will retail at $L349 for a $L99 style; $L265 for a $L75 and $L175 for a $L49 do. Existing lines will be expanded to include the new colors as time permits, so watch this space. Should you be unable to wait, however, drop me a notecard in-world with your requested style and new color, drop me the cost price plus $L50 "exclusivity premium" and I'll ship them direct to you in advance!

Until next time,

A slight diversion...?

Not had a chance to make hair recently, but I've had the time to get started on something different...

Shapes anyone?

Mine is unique to me, and I will not be selling it, but I do have plans to launch a few and see how they go... And here's the first:



This is Martha (as I named her During the work in progress) Fine tuning to happen, but she's tall (at 6'5", atheletic and curvy... Plus she's designed to fit the hair I sell, wich always helps... maybe without Ryoko on next time so you can get a better idea of the face!

Still until next time, when I've constructed a shape vendor!

Whoops...

Long time since I've updated!

Still...

Fighting hard with RL issues once again, but things are ticking over still when time permits...

Either way, just notice that Kate has now been launched... It's a REALLY short 1920s inspired flapper bob with a peacock feather hair ornament that attaches separately... so you don't have to wear it... great fun and I'm yet to see anything like it in SL... Knock yourselves out!



New gents style (c. 1978, no less) will be up soon... it's going to be... uh... cheap! ANother 20's inspired style for teh guys will hit the market as and when I get back to building... but it's going to be a few days at least,

Until next time, bear with me!
