Gothic Bliss

This weekend is a milestone in the life of Chubby and Belze Cherub. They are celebrating five years of marriage.

That matrimonial bliss has given life to a very special creation, their own grid called Chubelz. 

The grid is compact and varied, with a wedding venue, numerous freebie regions including furniture, textures, avatars and clothes and it's well worth a visit any time,

Arriving on Chubelz

 not just for the big Goth event on Saturday 12 September - that's tomorrow, at time of writing. The party will begin at 8pm Euro time, that's 10 am Grid time, and with several DJ's performing, it's going to be quite a night!

Around Chubelz Welcome you'll find many gothic shops full of great freebies

Belze Cherub: Back then, I was in Nextlife and Chubby was with Cleo Rajal. After we got together, we initially teamed up with friends on the Ankabi grid before creating our own grid.

Fairy Dreamland

The grid has numerous sims. The colorful Fairy Dreamland is always open and well worth a visit any time, and then there are numerous others that are open on a seasonal basis, including of course a winter wonderland, an Easter build, and that Opensim classic, a Halloween sim. About a year ago, they held a fantastic fashion show, demonstrating some of their outfits for men and women. 

Belze Cherub: The purpose of the grid is this - to meet up with friends, have fun, and escape everyday life.

Thirza Ember: There are dozens of small, lively German speaking grids in Opensim. It's a very different model to the big grid approach, with many residents and one owner, and it seems to work very well. What do you think is the secret of your success?

Belze Cherub: It’s important to be friendly, especially in small groups. We’re here to have fun and escape the daily grind—we don’t need any drama here.

Congratulations on your five years together Chubby and Belze, and wishing you many more to come!

Fashion Show

Belze and Chubby Cherub have their own grid called Chubelz. The grid name combines their two first names  and yes, it did take me like 2 years to figure that one out. 

Belze and Chubby at the Halloween themed Chubelz Modenschau region

Part of Opensim's vast and highly creative archipelago of fairly small, semi-private grids, Chubelz is one of those places that is already on your HG asset-searching radar for a while, and if not - then about time! On their grid's welcome area you can find everything from tattoos to eyes, shoes, jewels, and formal wear, making it a 'must LM' for anyone looking to get some great content for free. They regularly advertise their latest releases on Opensimworld - it's often stuff that will bring a smile to your face, and outfits and accessories themed for the time of year or special holidays.

It's Halloween season, which is the perfect time to have a Fashion Show or Modenschau with a Gothic theme. It's been brewing for a while...

Belze Cherub: We had the idea for a long time and have now implemented it

The fashion show will be on Saturday October 25 and it starts at 7pm Berlin time (that translates to 10am SLT) has its own dedicated sim which will be open to the public from 8am SLT so we'll all have plenty of time to get there before the fun begins, and completely rez. 

Remember that these events always get a crazy number of avatars, so being fashionably late is probably not a great idea - the early bird gets to see the outfits.
