Otherworldly

It is still a learning process to get the lighting just right to show off PBR as well as possible, but I am pretty pleased with how this gorgeous Teeglepet tack set from ContraptioN came out in my photos. The Carousel Trappings set is a beautiful rendition of the tack of a classic carousel horse, now available at the Dog & Pony Show for the vast majority of Teeglepet horse breeds. I decided to pick it up for the Pegasus, since a baroque horse suits my image of a carousel horse. The set includes both fallback and PBR textures, but of course I wanted to use the latter and the leather in particular is spectacular. I am also using a new coat for the Pegasus, the Glimmer coat from Hoofbeatz, also available at the Dog & Pony Show.

I picked up two more poses from Animosity after discovering their horse & rider poses through the Dog & Pony Show, to get a bit of a circus girl feel to these photos. My outfit is perhaps more Steampunk than circus, a new release from Petrichor & Ersch for the Engine Room (which has so many cool new releases this time around). The huge hud with texture options meant that it was easy to come up with a combination that suited the colours of the tack.

The amazing Dog & Pony Show is back! From September 6th to October 6th you can visit the biggest animal-themed event in Second Life to shop everything you might possibly need for your Teeglepets and Teegle avatars. Coats, tack, barn accessories and whole barns, it is all available. But of course, this is not just a shopping event, but there will also be plenty of performances and demonstrations as well as the amazing One of a Kind auctions. Do not miss out on this!

As always, Teegle has gone all-in and has no less than FOUR new pets available at the event. There is a cropped as well as a natural Doberman and two new horses, the Indian Marwari with its very special ears and the gleaming Akhal Teke with its unique metallic coat. I will be showing you all of these and I just had to give golden Hakan the Akhal Teke the first post. Such a special beauty he is, shining gorgeously in the evening light. A video would have been even better, but alas I have a stubborn cold that has me croaking and sniffling.

Like all Teeglepets Hakan comes in a no copy or a copy version, allowing you to have a whole herd of these rare horses if you so desire. Various add-on creators have already refitted their tack to the new breeds and there will also be a couple of brand-new tack sets from Teegle later on during the event. For this post, I decided to show off my avatar’s horsemanship and went without bridle and saddle, which of course looks particularly fancy when also using a couple of the archery poses from Animosity that are also available at the event. These pose both horse and rider and include bow props for each pose and there is both a male and a female set.
