SL Video: Nemo II

(Click here if the video fails to play)

From May 2010 by Sextant Shepard, the builder of the Nemo sim, "Nemo II is the continuation of Nemo, the Steampunk Suibmarine city in Secondlife. You will be offered to visit some amazing places such as the Orichalcum Mine, the mighty Nautilus submarine, the village "Northelia" and the observatory."

SL Newser would write about Nemo in it's last days before the place closed in October 2010 here and here. The reprint of the March 2010 article SL Newspaper did is here.

Steampunk Art Show

Grey Lupindo reports from the Ataria sim, where the locale is hosting an art show. This one has a steampunk theme. Held in honor of a patron of the arts whom passed away recently, a number of artists are featured here, including the noted Bryn Oh.

Images of Nemo

Before the Nemo sim closed last Friday October 29th, SL Newser went there to get a few pictures while this magnificent build was still up. Here's some of the images of the now gone popular Steampunk place.

See the pictures in Places.

Nemo Sim to Close

In the SL Universe forums, Sextan Shepherd, the owner of the noted Nemo area would soon be closing. It is due to shut down October 29th.

“It was a great fun to create this place,” he posted, “but now it's time for me to "move" on another SIM project. ... I have learnt a lot while building this place and I consider Nemo as a training course for something more improved.”

The reaction on the thread was unaminous. The people there were sad the sim was going, and wished him well with whatever his next project was.

Nemo, also known as the Nemo Trilogy, was a much praised place in Second Life that was considered among the best built in recent months, built on March 23rd. It got the attenton of Linden Labs, and was featured on their Destination Guide as a place to go to. The place you start at is the entrance to a Steampunk style submarine city. From there, you can take a train that leads to a reproduction of Captain Nemo’s submarine the “Natulis.” There is also an ariel city, with an ariel museum and an observatory.



Nemo is at the FRANCE3D Futuna sim (91, 148, 21) In April, Second Life Newspaper did an article on the submarine base.
