Fatima says "In 2007 I built my very first Victorian home. I had searched Second Life in vain for a small footprint Victorian home for our rental business. I was incredibly frustrated and decided I would build my own. Soooo...with not a single clue how to go about doing it, and little knowledge of building tricks and texture aligning, i did just that.

The Painted Lady was born. a 20x20 footprint green and white small Queen Anne style house. It had a certain quirky charm about it. That little house went on to sell in the many hundreds of copies and can be seen throughout SL ..... that said, it WAS my first build. It did have some "issues" lol. It had what I like to call 'character' in its misaligned prims, untextured bits and doors that would not lock. It wasn't packed in a rezzer and it used more prims than it needed to. It also used many freebie type textures that can be found anywhere.

SOOOO.....the time had come to rebuild the painted lady series, and i have done just that.

The Painted Lady, ANTIQUE ARTISTRY'S original Victorian home, all new and updated with ONLY 44 prims, (8 prims for the optional fireplace and porch lamp) and measuring 20dx19wx22.5h. This home remains at its original price of just $L995 and includes a lovely fireplace and working on off gas porch lamp. Doors are locking and windows are all scripted to open and close with sweet victorian lace curtains ...... but perhaps more importantly the build itself is redone in perfect alignment with ultra tight seams, and fully custom or customized texturing specifically for this home. The textures are rich and luxurious and you will love the inconspicuous tp's on the walls. It is all packed into a simple one touch rezzer that makes putting up your house instantaneous.

You can view the all new painted lady at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Fatimas%20Wonderland/163/94/47. Other colors will be coming this week, including a brown version and a blue version.

TY so much!
Fatima"
