How do I do that : Get BOM on my Genus Head

Greetings Fellow SL Lovers!

So you are new to Second Life or have resisted the temptation to join everyone using BOM. BOM is short for Bakes on Mesh and allows you to apply system skins and tattoos to your mesh body and head. For this tutorial… I am applying BOM to my Genus Classic Head W001. The process is the same for any of the Genus Heads.

So first off. I went ahead and took off my already set up head. When you are not wearing BOM… this is how your skin fitted for BOM looks on your system head.

Cute huh? lol

Step 1 – Put on a system skin. (This must be created to wear with your Genus head)

This is a system skin I went and bought. I chose no brows as I wear different brows

Step 2 – Put on your Genus head, eyes, and jaws (Take off any alphas you are wearing)

Are we sexy yet?

As you can see… we are now half skin system face half Genus head that is gray/white. So why didn’t the skin apply to the head? Simple. You haven’t activated BOM yet!

Step 3 – Go buy the free BOM activator! (Here is the direct link : https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/GENUS-Project-Genus-Heads-BOM-Activated/18714536)

As you can see I bought it already

Unpack and add the activator

Step 4 – Click the Bakes on Mesh Activated and voila! Your head is now BOM!

Congrats and go forth looking your best!

P.S. – Don’t forget to put on the eyes alpha to hide the system eyes. (Only alpha you should wear)

Finally me

Greetings Fellow SL Lovers!

It has taken me 12 years and 8 months in SL to finally find my look. Yes… one might ask why it took so long?

I love purple. Green eyes will never change but I have always wanted purple hair. Finally… I found a way to have it in the way I want.

Earth

Greetings Fellow SL Lovers!

Finally. Fire was hard but I got through it. Earth was inspiring. There are so many beautiful aspects of Earth I could have drawn from. I chose flowers and the woods.

So many great things were used to bring this picture to fruition. The dress is so beautiful and the details alone make this a must have.

Water

Greetings Fellow SL Lovers!

Water. I love water. At any moment, it can go from serene to turbulent.

Day 23 – Air

Greetings Fellow SL Lovers!

Nature is so beautiful. From it… we got the elements. Fire, water, air, and earth. Without them we do not have nature. It is so rainy and windy today… I got so inspired with air and how windy moves. Sightless… it can be so powerful it kills and destroys. Yet gentle enough to lift the petal of a flower without breaking it.

I wonder what element will inspire me next?

Day 23 – Happy Easter

Greetings Fellow SL Lovers!

Easter at home was quiet but very nice.

I managed to get away from the house to walk in the garden. It was so nice to get out… even if for a little while.

Day 17 – The Getaway

Greetings Fellow SL Lovers!

I had to get out of the house. In SL… you cannot get sick unless you RP it. Since I am not going to… I might as well explore. Today, I went to The Getaway. It is a peaceful sim filled with many photogenic spots and calming music. I will for sure have to come here next time I am stressed.

Day 15

Greetings Fellow SL Lovers!

It has been 15 days since my job closed down and I am home. We’ve been instructed to wear face coverings outside always.

I’ve taken to wearing this mask in SL whenever I leave my land in solidarity for all those who do have the venture out.

No one has said anything yet but I guess everyone understands. I am also wearing my comfy clothes.
