Steampunk Pirates

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we head down the Steam XVI Hunt, with a theme of Steampunk Pirates that sometimes becomes, well, steamy! This is a free gridwide hunt in which we are looking for gears, an example of which is found on each store's sign and as a bracelet at the first stop (its prize) to help them all rez faster. These historical hunts always have such interesting topics, and the designers who take part really go all out for our enjoyment. There are some mini hunts that plunge you into intricate storylines, which I always look forward to when these twice yearly hunts roll around :) In addition to the Steam Hunt, the same folks organize the Silk Road Hunts which Xan and I appreciate too. Off to adventure!


My first look is one of several prizes at **DSO** which suit women, men, and dinkies. This is their Kagan Gown - Steam 2021, sleekly styled in black satin with red decorations. It is provided in fitmesh standard sizes along with eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine body sizing. There is a fun image emblazoned on the back, and I thought I took a photo of it but I guess I didn't save it (oops!) so I apologize for that, but you can see it in the preview images on the hunt site. 


My next look is the charming TMD Enfin la Vapeur Women Copper prize from Thistle Moon Designs. They also have several versions in their gear to suit male, female, tween, toddleedoo, and moppet avatars. This one includes standard mesh size and a Maitreya version, all in that lovely copper gradient with a patterned swash around the hips. All the other outfits coordinate with this, so you can match as a family or roleplay together.


As I mentioned, some of the steampunk pirate looks are on the steamy side, like this terrific prize from AdelleArts Manor Fashions. Their Steam XVI Female Prize consists of the mesh corset in sizes for Isis, Maitreya, Slink, Tonic Fine, and Tonic Minim bodies, plus the boots in Isis, Maitreya, and Slink/Tonic sizes. It is perfectly finished with an Omega applier for the underwear, top and bottom which provides the choker, gloves, garters, and stockings you see above. It looks very sexy without the corset too, as I'm sure you can imagine. The hat is included too, and a hairstyle that is not shown here. The male prize is a roguish pirate costume that the guys are sure to enjoy.


Next is another steamy prize, this time from Silken Soul Design called SSD - Steampunk Silks Set - Steam Hunt. Our bra and genie sleeves each come in sizes for Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine, while the harem pants are designed for Alice, Altamura, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies. There is also a belt with skirt prims attached for some flexi flow, and flat shoes with ankle straps. I love the steampunk gears on the fabric's pattern, honoring the theme in a fun way.


My final look is one of three treats in the same gear at Mishmash Fusion, who are generously offering a male gift, female gift, and unisex decor (pirate dock) all for anyone who finds their gear. This lovely dress is the ~*MF*~ Sky Pirate Dress, a pleasure in purple with lots of ruffles and a corseted bodice. It includes standard mesh sizes along with eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine body sizing. This style is fantastic, and in one of my favorite colors it looks magnificent. 

It is a rainy and windy evening here, to the point where it sounds like someone or something is walking around on my roof directly above my head. I am upstairs above a garage so I hear all sorts of weird noises from time to time, odd when you consider that this room is technically a bedroom. Otherwise it was a decent day, with my team (barely) winning the hockey game I watched. I hope you're all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
