Midnight Fae

Feel like slipping out of your human skin and into something very different? Then you should head over to Nomine to check out the latest release from Munchflower: a range of truly imaginative skins for several fantastical creatures. You can become a dazzling Fae, a lovely Mermaid, a feral Neko or a scaled, slithery Reptile.

The Fae skin inspired me to head over to the beautiful Chakryn Forest and I hope to bring you a look at the other fantasy skins in coming posts. Of course, you can also take a look at them on the Nomine webpage.

This is the Fae skin in Midnight and the Constellation option. Each Fae skin includes a regular version and the Constellation, which adds a gorgeous sprinkling of stars across the whole skin. The base body shifts beautifully in various shades for an ethereal effect. Of course, if you prefer a lighter skin for your Fae, there’s plenty to choose from as well as the skin comes in a total of 9 variations.

The Fae skins appear to be based on the lovely Magpie skin, my all-time favourite skin line from Nomine, and I was thrilled with the way it looked on my Magpie shape. I really like the shape of the lips and the overall shading of the face; this is a fantasy skin that is every bit as good as a regular skin with the added bonus of having a well-executed fantasy theme.

Also seen in these pictures is the Clarissa hair from Alice Project and the Starry set from Tekeli-li.

So, head over to Nomine and try some demos. While you’re there, don’t miss the Midnight Mania and the Lucky Fortune Teller for a chance at winning some of these fantasy skins.
