Second Life is full of surprises and fascinating characters, and I have wanted to create an avatar in the form of Betty Boop for a long time, but I thought that it would be an impossible task, LAQ has always been my go to place for shopping in Second Life, for skins, makeup and bento mesh heads, I recently purchased LAQ’s Ivy head, I loved the whole, big head, wide eyed, doll look, I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with her, so I started out by making a doll avatar, the more I looked at her, the more I could see her potential to become something more, something totally different, it was then that I realised that I had finally found my Betty Boop, I bought her to life in Second Life by adding the right hair, makeup, clothes and jewellery, and now she is complete.
