LnL's Medieval Fantasy Hunt Prize!

The Medieval Fantasy Hunt is in its twelfth edition! Can you believe it! Time flies!

LnL is happy to take part in each of these hunts. They are well organized by an amazing team of seasoned Second Life residents who love what they are doing, and that shows. The stores taking part are a rich sample of the best creators in the medieval and fantasy styles. And finally, the hunters, without whom no hunt would be a success, are courteous and always willing to help, within the rules of this hunt.

On to LnL's prize! We love armors and this time we made no exception. The prize, set for 0L, is an awesome unisex armor in tones of dry brown with a wink at the fantasy world. Notice the discreet butterfly-like detail both in the front and in the back.

The hunt starts tomorrow, July 1, and ends July 31, but the prize is out already!

You know the drill, click the red "i" (hint giver) by the hunt poster to receive an updated hint. Above all, have fun! Happy Hunting!

Cybele Moon at LnL Square's Tower!


LnL is proud to present Cybele Moon's photographic talent at LnL Square Tower. Truly amazing and magical landscapes, both black and white and in color, capture our imagination and take us in a journey of dreams and beauty.

In the words of the artist:

"As Hana Hoobinoo I was rezzed in SL in 2008 and for a while I  enjoyed historic role play and creating quests and other little magical things.  Around two years later I ended up taking a long hiatus from the virtual world and have recently returned to pursue a few more creative quests.  Many thanks to Lizzie Gudkov for her help in this.

Many of the Virtual world landscapes inspired me and I wanted to add a touch of fantasy or dreaminess along with reality in my photos.

I am a photographer, a teller of tales, and a mom  in real life and I work creatively under the name of Cybele Moon. I live on the beautiful west coast of Canada where I enjoy hiking and taking photos of the wonderful landscapes, woodland gardens and more.

I also take much inspiration from my many travels and from my heritage. Tales of the Tuatha are my stories of the people of the mound.

I am somewhat of an introvert in real life  but with many varied interests, history, paleontology and astronomy to name a few.

My quest is finding old bones and philosopher stones, and traveling a path with heart in all worlds.

Anyone wanting any original prints can contact me on my blog or here [in SL].

To view my work please visit

there is also a link to my travel blog there."

A DREAM, THE WINGS TO FLY

As a kid I remember spending time playing with paper airplanes. I would fold them in different shapes and changed their qualities to make them fly longer or higher . I cut little ailerons or bent their tails and had a blast by doing so, getting of course different flight paths. The observation of this aerodynamic pieces gave me a lot of joy and provided long hours of happiness and dreaming.  It was then when my love for aviation was born and ever since I have always been interested in the subject , from Leonardo's designs to the landings of the space shuttles.
In this new installation " A DREAM, The wings to fly", I have tried to incorporate some characteristic things like vectors, wings, instruments or clouds, to create a piece that would capture my admiration to such fascinating matter, from the paper plane, the bird or the spitfire. Flying changed us, it brought  us closer and  in the future it will open the doors to our amazing universe in ways we can only dream at this point. 

I would like to thank specially to the Tanalos Art & Torno Kohime foundation for giving me the chance to make this piece and to Nino Vichan in particular.

I also wish to dedicate this piece to my beloved Lizzie for all her support and inspiration. Lizzie, you are the wings that make me fly!!

And last but not least  I also want to thank  all of you  who come to see it and enjoy it, I wish it triggers beautiful memories and make you dream and soar the skies.

Opening day: Wednesday May 21st 13:30 SLT
Location:3D Art Gallery  http://slurl.com/secondlife/Solaris%20Island/172/41/1402

April Hunts at LnL!

Time flies and here we are almost in April! Two hunts will start soon. Above you can see the prize we have created for you for the Sure Your Mum Doesn't Like This Hunt. Leather is usually something mom's don't care too much for, isn't it? ;) So, we designed a leathery unisex outfit with plenty of buckles and cool details. This outfit comes with a top, pants (mod), a collar, gloves and a coat bottom. The attached pieces can be resized to fit your avatar. All prizes in this hunt are marked 1L. You're looking for a little red Demon.

Then, we have the TSG Sinner's Hunt gift. This time, the theme is vanity. Everyone enjoys looking sharp and there's a bit of vanity in that, so we have created this black tuxedo with red coat lapeles. The outfit comes with a top piece, pants (mod), gloves, a Gothic collar and a tail skirt with a bow for the ladies, plus a coat bottom for the gentlemen. As always, the attachments are resizable. All gifts in this hunt are free. You're looking for a Mirror.

Medieval Fantasy Fair III, HURRY!

Is it time already?! The Medieval Fantasy Fair III was so much fun with lots of amazing creations by fantastic designers, including LnL. The Fair grounds were imaginative and quite a challenge! The labyrinthine display gave it a gripping mind-bending twist and the Rose Hunt gifts were extraordinary. As the last hours dwindle away, the Fair closing today, Sunday March 30, at midnight SLT, and the last minute visitors roaming around, I came across Mr. Caterpillar and simply relaxed, enjoying the ambiance before it's gone for good. As always, the organizers have outdone themselves. The designers have put a lot of effort in decorating their stores and offering their best creations, and the visitors have been courteous and respectful. Well done, everyone! Keep an eye on the Creators of Fantasy blog where new Hunts and Fairs will be announced and drop by the Medieval Fantasy Fair for one last visit! Enjoy!

MFF III - Dark Tales!

As we walked around at the Medieval Fantasy Fair, look who we came across? Little Red Riding Hood. We are not really sure what she was discussing with the Big Bad Wolf, but our gut-feeling tells us that they were up to no good! Each area of the Fair has a tale to tell, a dark tale! So, beware! Go for a stroll at the labyrinthine pathways and find the most unexpected characters of so many familiar stories. The third edition of the Fair is coming to an end and we must add here that the organization team has done an amazing job creating the right ambiance for the chosen theme and providing a well organized, drama-free event. A big round of applause goes to Eldo, Gwen, Runa and Men! The Black Roses are still out there! So, hurry!

MFF III - Dark and Bloody!

Did we say dark and bloody?! Yikes! Look at some of the, aham, friendly creatures we came across while roaming around at the Medieval Fantasy Fair! 
We did try to engage in friendly conversation with them, but they were considerably more interested in checking out the delicious food walking around, also knows as Fair visitors! *evil grin*

On a more serious note, the decoration of the fair grounds is very well done and totally worth a visit just for that. Don't forget that there's an ongoing hunt with 45 free prizes hidden in black roses, including one at LnL's store in the Fair. Have fun!
