Nolo Pasaro Avatar - $1L

Posted by Teagan Blackthorne on May 5, 2008

I have just released another $1L full avatar inspired by the recent exposure to the fandom subculture of Second Life. This avatar is also based on a character in one of my son’s favorite movie series, Hot Wheels(AcceleRacers). This is his favorite character in the entire series. Nolo Pasaro Avatar is on the second floor at at the Granymyr location.

Who is Nolo Pasaro?

Nolo Pasaro is a character from the Hot Wheels’ movies. He first appears in Ignition as the leader of the Teku. He took over as leader after his brother, Tone, was killed during a race against Tork, leader of the Metal Maniacs. He wear a pendant of a broken T that was his brothers. Although it has been established that Tone’s crash was his own fault, Nolo blames Tork for his brother’s death.

His team ended up racing in the realms from Dr. Tezla’s Acceledrome when the robot, Gig, came to find racers from the World Race to help Dr. Tezla. His teammates, Kurt Wylde and Vert Wheeler, both participated in the World Race with Vert being the winner. Nolo has a good relationship with Lani Tam, Dr. Tezla assistant, but at times, he allows his hostility towards Tork cloud his judgment.

The character has appeared in:
Hot Wheels AcceleRacers: Ignition
Hot Wheels AcceleRacers: The Speed of Silence
Hot Wheels AcceleRacers: Breaking Point
Hot Wheels AcceleRacers: The Ultimate Race

Lani Tam Avatar - $1L

Posted by Teagan Blackthorne on May 3, 2008

I have just released a $1L full avatar inspired by the recent exposure to the fandom subculture of Second Life. This avatar is based on a character in one of my son’s favorite movie series, Hot Wheels(AcceleRacers). Laynie Link helped me with the overalls. Lani Tam Avatar is on the second floor at at the Granymyr location.

Who is Lani Tam?

Lani Tam is a character from the Hot Wheels’ movies. She first appears in World Race as a racer for the Wave Rippers team. During this time she had a brief romance with a member of a rival team, Taro Kitano of the Scorchers. The person backing the World Race is Dr. Tezla. The history given for her is that she grew up around street racers in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Lani appears in the AcceleRacer movies as Dr. Tezla’s assistant and her romance with Taro has ended. He says it is because he is hard to talk to. Lani’s duties include being a crew chief, medic and mechanic at the Acceledrome. Lani has a good relationship with the leader of the Teku, Nolo Pasaro. The chief mechanic for the Metal Maniac, Monkey(Mitchell McClurg), has a crush on Lani to the point of dreaming about her when he sleeps.

The character has appeared in:
Hot Wheels Highway 35: World Race
Hot Wheels AcceleRacers: Ignition

Also, by popular demand, I put out the Club Mosh Fairy Avatar for $1L.

How Could I Refuse?

Posted by Teagan Blackthorne on April 23, 2008

When Sasy asked me to help The Wheelies, how could I refuse? A while back, I had stumbled upon the video on YouTube by The Wheelie’s founder, Simon Walsh, and was touched by what he does for our community. I hope that many other designers step up and help this wonderful group.

There is a Wheelie edition of the Ann Gown at the Granymyr and Kidd locations. The cost of the gown is $100L and 100% of the proceeds goes to The Wheelies.

Today is the official opening of the Red Stick International Animation Festival in Baton Rouge, LA. If you are in the area, stop by and say hello to Laynie Link. She and her family will be there volunteering. I know she was working at the registration booth this morning but I am not sure what areas they are helping out at.

While you are there, grab the notecard for the Red Stick Hunt if you have not already done so. We are the the mid-point for the hunt. Also help yourself to some coffee, cupcakes, sushi, champagne, and more.
