New Goth Cowboy Hats 2 pack!!!

Finally, a new style for Goth Cowboy hat series.

Goth Cowboy hat Padova Leather with chains.


1 prim sculpted cowboy hat has baked distressed black leather texture. Instead of hat band, they have prim black chains with metal plate on the side. One with simple metal chain. The other has skull medallion in front of the hat, attached to the chain.
Box of Two variation sells for the price of one.

Some of you might already figured out or read old post that I WILL NOT make hats in all colors in their crayola box like some upstart amateurs.
70's rainbow tie dye, 90's Rave sticks are all things of the past .


This one, I struggled a bit with baked textures to achieve subtle shade and distressed feel. There are so many hat makers, including imitators who use blank texture and color it flat... Or slap the regular texture without baking the shade on it.

It was just that the shape of sculpt prims were constructed. Think about wrapping the hat with square paper . I was trying to paint the leather and shade on square paper. That's the short version of it.
Probably I uploaded different textures close to ten times. I asked one of my friend to fiddle the black and white shade texture on his photoshop, too.

At the end, I am satisfied with the results by this black Italian leather texture. There is another distressed brown texture, but I am not sure if I would use it for products.

86 prim chains were not the hardest part... This time, texture was.

It was totally different creative experience.

Fashion-R-Us Premium designer status :)

I was invited to join this fashion related website as a premium designer. The website is just launched but the owner is inviting great designers and I see some future.

You know the *loyal customer groups scheme* has been really popular these days, but the thing is... you can't have all those groups.
As an artist/designer, I really don't have announcements every week of the month. yet, I wish that I had some group i can announce my latest creation.

This group is only better.

mixed genre of fashion designers(It will be added everyday) and customer can browse numerous announcements thru websites, and find freebies/gifts and sales, not to mention landmarks.
The group is also available as in world group. And I see many announcements with generous gifts from designers. :)



I thought about media such as this myself, but construction and maintenance of such websites is a job itself. I think anyone can appreciate such effort and contribution.

TO DO list...

1. Take new pictures of old top hats/collars.
2. Update/upgrade them with resize script.
3. re-organize vendors. (Probably utilizing Amethyst vendor again.
4. hmmm wholesale or affiliate vendors... But not decided yet.
   

I just realized that some of the oldest products, I didnt even photoshop them...
No wonder no one buys them. There are no description nor good lighting to highlight the product. LOL. Let's see what happens.

Thank You For your business!!!

Daini Ken Designs by Frederic Prevost had a record growth in sales this month.

My store has been ranked high on search on *cowboy hat* keyword, so that customer who know what they are looking for, would sure to check my store. Another reason could be that my prim resizer script contributed to the decision making process of my customers.



I have few ideas for new hats and accessories, however yet to finish to be a complete product. we will see.

When I started this game, I would never see myself becoming self sufficient by selling my own creation due to the gross lack of desire to be successful in virtual game.
On the other hand, however slow it has been, I have been working to add many products in my line of hats, accessories that are unique, which in result, making enough to sustain myself solely from the sales proceed from my store.

It is a very long process, and definitely there was no goals as to collect points taking the castle... only the perseverance. So needless to say, it is satisfying.

Funny thing is that, when I hang out in my store fixing the vendor or whatever, the customers who are browsing the store usually do not know who I am. Although I pasted my face practically all over the store, (My avatar is the only model for all of my vendor pictures) people do not usually look at my avatar apparently...

Sale Event at Subtle Submission

Tomorrow 2-4 pm PST (Saturday afternoon) at Subtle Submission,(Slurl) Noirran Marx's store. Buy one, get one free, and Both Noir and I will be there to hand out free item. No wait, no notecards.

Noirran will be DJ ing during the event, so come by and have some fun as well. Noirran's DJ set is always very enjoyable.

So ... this is it !

The name of the style will be Debauchee. The special order item from Barerose is delivered this morning.
I think its quite appropriate. I could name it St. Augustine, but the public will not see the connection I suppose. hehe

It is very easy to find military style with all buttoned up and polished. What I really wanted was bedroom disheveled look. Open jacket, shirt half open so on .

This outfit achieved that look quite nicely. Silk sash tied loosely around waist add a whimsical touch.

The set comes with sheer white shirt with detachable frilly lapel. Jacket also comes in brown and white aside from these red and blue. I find White one unexpectedly sexy.
Brown, is nice but depend on the skin you are wearing, might be ended up looking dull, rather than bedroom disheveled.

The trouser is undetermined gray, but you can make your own white fitted trouser with black riding boots, may also compliment the look fabulously.

I was invited to model for the vendor picture but in order to show the jacket collar and frilly shirt lapel, I wore black pony tail hair in the modeling stand.
Tori Heart told me to put on the shews. LOL Yes I was bare footed as usual.

This will be one of my staple piece.

It will be available tomorrow at Barerose Tokyo.
