Otherworldly

We Love Role-Play meets the Dog & Pony Show in today’s post, which dresses up the Teeglepet Akhal Teke with the brand-new Regalia tack set from Cheval D’or (which includes both PBR and fallback textures) and the Akhal Teke Gold applier from the Texture Barn. On this handsome eastern steed, a rogue rides into a medieval city, wearing a PBR-textured outfit from Project and a very fancy bejewelled eyepatch from Pendulum, both from WLRP.

The Teeglepet we’ve already looked at in a prior post, though I think I forgot to mention that the default texture is a PBR-texture, just like on the Marwari.  The Regalia set, like the Dune Lord set, draws inspiration from traditional Marwari tack, but it has been made available for the Akhal Teke as well and looks fabulous on it. And of course it offers a number of texturing options for all the different pieces. The applier from the Texture Barn is a classic Akhal Teke colour, a burnished gold, which also shows off how lean and thin-skinned these horses tend to be, by including detailed muscles and veining.

The outfit from Project includes shirt, breeches and boots and very extensive texturing options for all pieces, including the ability to separate out buttons and different parts of the boots. The PBR textures look amazing on the boots in particular, but it is tougher to get non-shiny surfaces like the shirt to be completely realistic. However, this is definitely a brand to keep an eye on if they plan to keep making such nicely texture role-play outfits for men. Finally, we have the eyepatch from Pendulum, which comes in a left eye and a right eye version and includes both PBR and fallback textures on the HUD. I would have liked the design to include how it is supposed to be fastened, I admit, even if it is obviously designed for the visual impact rather than being at all functional.

Oh, and I lied, I did have one more thing to mention. The Courney hair from Magika is a new release that is out at Access and I do love that she keeps including male sizes on all her hairs.

With the current offer from The Shops to buy one of their bodies for 50% off if you’re wearing a qualifying body from another brand, I went ahead and picked up the Legacy Athletic male body to have more options for blogging male outfits.  And then I jumped right into the Ubbe set from Rakshasa for We Love Role-Play. The set consists of tunic, pants and belt, all with a distinctly Viking-inspired look. As usual, the fatpack is a fantastic option for customisation, as the HUD allows so much mixing and matching of colours. The texturing is really top-notch on these pieces, both in terms of evoking a fabric and in the hues of the colours.

LR Weapons has two pieces at WLRP and for these photos I opted for the Andel Bow, making my character into a wandering hunter who comes across a strange altar in the woods. The altar, or rather the Stone of Knowledge, is one of Angelicus’s releases for WLRP. Fundati and Fanatik provided some of the other decor elements while my hair is by Magika who has been including male sizes for her releases of late.

Another delicious round of Midnight Order has opened and my visit there resulted in quite a bit of shopping. I absolutely had to have the gorgeous sabatons by Static (and, of course, the matching gauntlets as well), though instead of wearing it with something that might combine more naturally with pieces of armour, I couldn’t resist wearing nothing but the stunning Porcelain tattoo from Fallen Gods. With the right choice of hair and some carefully selected poses and camera angles, I am almost decent. ;)
