Steampunk Plague Masks by Material Squirrel



Available only at Clockwork Spiral - go there to get demos and buy
50% of purchase goes to the National Kidney Foundation

Here is your SL Taxi to Clockwork Spiral

If events make you itch, they will be available in my store after the event. 

These come in two base models - Metal or Leather.  Scripted for texture change - change the bolts, the goggles, the lens, the base mask.

Both sizes - male and female are included - tho they are more for face shape than gender, so try on both in the demo.

AND last but not least, this is an original mesh design.

Whew!

Back Soon!


Real life stuff means I'm taking a break from working as hard as I usually do at Material Squirrel. I'm still answering emails and dealing with customer stuff, but just a lot slower lately.

Mesh Horns - Now on Marketplace

I finally found the time to put all my mesh horns from the mesh fair on the Marketplace. I also realized I never featured them on my blog either! Link will take you to the SL Marketplace listing. These are NOT rigged mesh so you can edit and move them to fit your av.


Aquatic Head Fins - also great for dragons!







All of these horns are also available in world at my store - SL URL

I also put the Arna horns on the marketplace - tho I did a different pricing and size package with these. They are only on the marketplace currently.

Arna Horns in Pastels - Petite Size

Material Squirrel @ Fantasy Faire - Relay for Life Items!

The Fantasy Faire opens today at noon (tho it might be open a bit earlier). Material Squirrel is on the Meandervale sim!

I have two new sets of wings for the Relay for Life benefit items (all sales go to benefit RFL). These are exclusive for RFL and will not be offered for sale after June EVER AGAIN. (After the Faire they will be up in my store until June).

The first is the Maiestre Fairy Wings in both regular avatar and petite/mini avatar sizes. These come in 10 colors and are 299L.


The second is a Fantasy Faire special - only 35L for 2 wings! Also in regular and petite avatar sizes


I've also released 3 new sets of Butterfly/fairy wings (NOT for RFL) at this Faire. Will be blogging about those soon too!

TP to my store on the Meandervale sim

Haunted Zuzu Closing Sale + Discontinued Wings Sale + Mesh at my Store


With a bit of a heavy heart, I have decided to close my small clothing/accessory store, Haunted Zuzu. This was just a side project I've worked on at times over the years. But I know in the future I will not have time for it and I need the store space for other things. All Haunted Zuzu things are on sale from 45 to 55L, get them while you can. Haunted Zuzu Closing Sale Taxi

I also have some discontinued wings on sale in this section too - 45L for each pair! :)

(PS - Material Squirrel is NOT closing, don't worry.)



I know the mesh fair is super crowded and rather laggy for many - so I've put the mesh items in my new wings section - everything EXCEPT the 10L horn special. But those will eventually be in my store too (after the fair) - probably not as low of a price, but still low :). Taxi to New section at Material Squirrel

Material Squirrel at March Mesh Madness Fair



Material Squirrel has several new mesh horns and tails available at the March Mesh Madness Fair. The Arna Horns are the fair special - for each color pack! (10L for dark pack, 10L for light pack). These horns are scripted with 6 textures each, size change, and animations. PLUS they include a petite mesh version (for Yabusaka Loon's petite fairy mesh).

You can see the horns and tails available at the fair on my flickr page and I'll be blogging them for the next few days as well.

This is the second to last fair I will do this year (the next is the Fantasy Faire in April).

A few other things:
I moved my subscriber list to a different system - it won't change how you get notices, etc. (It allows me to have a lower cost per month and avoid the new throttle limit.) BUT I did lose 700 subscribers when I switched so please check if you aren't getting notices from me.

Also - many of you are crazy about the new petite mesh avs from Yabusaka Loon - I love them too! Many of Material Squirrel's wings do not size down far enough to fit these little creatures - I'm working on it! If you have a set of wings that you would like to fit, please please let me know and I will fit them for you.

New Pixie Wings





I'm redoing the pixie wings at Material Squirrel. Actually, I'm making new ones as the old ones were well, quite old. I'd hoped to have more done before I released these, but that didn't happen. These are very small wings, best for smaller avs, tho there is no reason why bigger avs can't wear them too!

Direct Teleport to Pixie Wing Section

Also a reminder that the Starlight Wing Hunt ends on Wednesday - so if you haven't done the hunt and want to, your time is running out!

Starlight Wing Hunt!


The Starlight Wing Hunt is open now at Winged Isle/Material Squirrel! I've set out 15 stars each with a color variation of the pictured Starlight Wings. Just look for the sculpted star shape pictured above. I've done some really easy ones and some harder stars, but I haven't made it 'tear your hair out' difficult. No stars are half-hidden in a wall or anything like that.

The hunt is from today (Jan. 11th to Jan 31st!) Happy Hunting and THANK YOU to all of my wonderful customers, I hope you enjoy this hung!

Teleport to your Happy Hunting!

Mesh Antler Reminder

Just a reminder that the mesh antlers are still available!
I put them up on the marketplace - you can get the demos:

Hartley Antlers - Demos on MP


Ceren Antlers - Demos on MP

I did not get a chance to do my usual Christmas free wing hunt, but I am still planning on doing it in January!

New Mesh Antlers! (or Queen of Procrastination finishes Holiday project RIGHT before holiday, weee)

Yay! I finished my first Mesh project - mesh antlers. The really great advantage of mesh is that the antlers can be seamless as one prim, no slight gaps where one sculpt meets another!

Each set of horns comes with 12 texture options scripted in, scripted size change and 3 animations. They are NOT rigged tho so you can modify them.

I've also done a Christmas Edition of both - the Christmas package includes the REGULAR version and also, some sculpted prims because I ran out of time to do something else.



Also, for a limited time I have transfer versions available in case you want to give a gift.  You can still give a gift of the copy/modify versions too - my vendor program allows you to give a gift to a specific av, just touch the vendor - but I know some people like to give things in boxes personally. The transfer version will out for a limited time only because copy/mod makes my life much easier ;)

Oh, and if you haven't heard yet, you need a Mesh viewer to view these!! Phoenix has a mesh release now!

You can get the antlers HERE at my store.

You can also get the DEMOs at my store too.

I will have them on the marketplace soonish.

Still here, will have proper update soon

I'm still around, been either sick or working on mesh. I hope to have some new products to release soon! And also hope to have a Christmas hunt for some free wings - like I did last year :)

Dark Fairy Wings - Updated




A big change is (slowly) coming to Material Squirrel - I'm repackaging all of my flexi wings into color packs of 10 colors (same wing style) for the same price 299L. So you get 10 wings for 299L. Unfortunately (this is the catch), this is going to take me awhile to complete.  I've just finished the Dark Fairy Wing section, so please come take a look if you are interested in the style. (Please note this is NOT an upgrade to existing flexi wing version. The current version is still 4.2.1)

All of these wings are also in my new vendors - which allow you to buy as a gift or with store credit. And all my new vendors allow you to earn store credit. For every set of wing packs (or set of wings), you will receive store credit. Once that adds up, you can use your store credit to buy some wings!  If you wear your Material Squirrel group tag, you also get 10L extra in credit for each purchase.

My avatar through the years

I've been in SL a long time. I'm surprised I was able to find pictures for every year.

I'm working on mesh items and still redoing the flexi wing packaging. Will update here soon when the Dark Fairy section is done - will be soon, I hope.

New Wings! + Change + Updates


New Flexi Demon Wings!  10 Colors for 299L!
Demo available on the Marketplace and in my store, of course!



A big change is (slowly) coming to Material Squirrel - I'm repackaging all of my flexi wings into color packs of 10 colors (same wing style) for the same price 299L. So you get 10 wings for 299L. Unfortunately (this is the catch), this is going to take me awhile to complete. Currently I've completed the fairy wing section! So if you love fairy wings, be sure to take a look at the new and redone wings in my fairy section.

More changes - I will be getting rid of the pose stands for the flexi wings and offering demos more like hair demos that you can take and try on later.

Customer Rewards! In addition to changing how my wings are packaged, I'm also changing over to a new vendor system. And that means - customer rewards! For every pair of wings you buy, you get credit at my store. If you wear your Material Squirrel group tag (have the Material Squirrel group activated), you get even more credit! I'll also have a redelivery terminal soon. Currently, the only wings that give you store credit are the wings in the New Wing section and the Fairy Wing section. This new vendor system will also make it much easier to buy gifts or give someone store credit as a gift. To pay the vendor, simply left click on it and pay the amount given. To buy with credit or as a gift, just touch the vendor.

And last, but certainly not least - MESH. I am working on learning mesh and I'm really excited about the possibilities. Mesh does have some limitations and won't replace my flexi or sculptie wings, at least not until we have significant improvements in the mesh technology, but I am quite excited about some of the new things we can do!

I made hair! And it's at the Hair Fair





All of the 3 updos above have color change options on the accessory parts (ie non-hair parts). I really love this option so you can customize your own hair to match your outfit. All of the updos come with hair bases on the tattoo layer so they look better on your head. (The part where the prims meet the forehead has always bugged as looking strange, but this makes it look better, I think.)

And one long do.

The Hair Fair opens tomorrow (July 2nd). I also created some turbans for Bandana Day and I will be featuring those on this blog too.

The Hair Fair benefits Wigs for Kids, here is my contribution so it is clear for all:
25% of the sales of the above hair styles goes to Wigs for Kids
100% of the Turban sales goes to Wigs for Kids

I also have some dollarbie hair at my store - it's a style that I love but it had some transparency issues.

Still Chugging Along

Still working on Haunted Zuzu stuff - specifically hair which will debut at the Hair Fair in July. Then I will be back to wings, I'm planning on making some big changes to my store. And of course, MESH will be here soon. I have so much to learn about mesh, but it seems like a no brainer for wings (minus the lack of movement and different wing positions will have to be alphaed, not prim hidden due to the scripting restraints, at least as far as we know.)

What I'm Working On

Just a small update to let everyone know I'm working on some Haunted Zuzu items - which I will display on this blog since it is the one still on most feeds. I know I will be back to wings soon - but I need a small break from wings and I'm also waiting to see if mesh is on the way. The RFL wings are up in my store until RFL ends in June (one such pictured here). Grab them while you can - it's a great deal 10 wings for 299L - all proceeds to RFL.
