In my opinion, the only reason to choose Signature Gianni, is that you can have a single arm tattoo on it. The body is quite nice and muscular, I think. I will set Belleza Jake over Signature Gianni, because I really prefer the HUD. Male Mesh Body (Signature Gianni? over Slink as I want it muscled). Just start with the default shape that came with your body and adjust it to your liking ^^ This will be an ongoing process (I still touch-up mine even after almost 8 years) but it is worth it. Shape makers tend to overprice their shape, and some of them have no idea about proportions and such. I would highly suggest taking time to customize your own shape. Of course, there's going to be similar characteristics (my head, the catwa catya, is slightly ducklipped) but well, comparing to RL, how many women are slightly ducklipped ? Does that make them any less unique ? x) Bento heads are customizable with shape sliders, so while I do have one of the most popular female bento heads, I have my own unique look. That is not true (at least for bento heads). *wipes her brow and buries her face in her morning coffee* Edited Septemby norajulian We might need to hear from the men in the crowd for that answer! I know there is plenty out there for Slink, but as I am not a male myself, I haven't done much research as to how much clothing out there is rigged for the Gianni body. *Edited to add that as far as mesh bodies go - you may want to do some research as to what clothing creators are doing as far as support for mesh bodies. They are a quiet bunch because most are creating while they're logged into SL, but very friendly! Men are slightly harder to outfit for, but I'm sure you'll do wonderfully!Īdditionally, Seraphim is another great resource to discover upcoming shopping events, and The Builder's Brewery is a great place to start if you'd like to dive into anything related to building/scripting/creating. The Skinnery might be another good skin store to follow, as Uma does a fantastic job of making skins, and recently released a BEAUTIFUL dark skin for women - I'm hoping to see more pop out as far as male skins, but she is one of my favorite skin creators. well, a blog of skins and new releases, although not ALL of SL skin creators are on it, so it's always good to shop around! If you see "Omega" mentioned - the Omega is a newish tool that allows appliers meant for certain bodies and heads to apply to OTHER ones that they weren't specifically meant for, but again - it is always encouraged to demo those first, as shapes/skins/bodies/heads are the most costly items you'll purchase in order to customize yourself. It also has a comparison for skins and what is offered. Mesh Body Addicts has a comparison chart for the bodies and heads, including the pros and cons of each, with their own individual "reports" of what to expect with each body. If you do some searching along the forums, a couple of great resources are Mesh Body Addicts and the Skin Addiction Blog. These are typically referred to as ' Bento'. It is very possible to make a mesh head and body match what your ideal shape/image would be, but it is important to make sure that you grab a body and head that meshes to your system body so that you can modify it. SL creators have rapidly expanded with demands while making mesh heads and bodies to rig directly to your avatar appearance/shape sliders. Welcome to SL, Vinny! The first thing that anyone will tell you is to try demos FIRST. HELP ME SEE HOW MUCH BETTER SL IS THAN IMVU - CHEERS! Also keen to meet friendly folks who need more friends! I'm a Virtual World addict. Skins - straydog - VYC - Derme - Avenge - amiasĪNY TIPS, ADVICE, ASSISTANCE is all very gratefully received. Tattoos - speakeasy - identity - letis tattoo Shapes I've been told - Speakeasy - strong men - aetherian shapes - Tredente - RM store - ascendant I'm after a black avi (Tredente/Stanley Bento style)or a muscled hipster look (Volkstone Eric style look)Įyes I've been told to try - L'etre - Suicidal Unborn - Mesange Male Mesh Head (although I read somewhere don't get a mesh head as you will look identical to everyone else - thoughts?) - if i go mesh then Catwa Bento looking favourite or do i go with Signature Gianni head to match the body or doesnt that matter. Male Mesh Body (Signature Gianni? over Slink as I want it muscled) I am prepared to throw some money at it within reason and want to get my avi looking as realistic as possible (the whole thing I love about SL is the realism of the avis the textures etc). It is so much more complicated than IMVU in every way. I have done a bit of reading and research and am slowly getting to grips. To fully appreciate it I need to sort myself a decent avi and this is wear I am struggling at present. Ok so after years on imvu I decided to try SL and see how good it was.
