Cradom Denimore Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I just spent a fruitless hour inworld looking for a male avatar. All I've been able to find are young men with big pecs and chest hair.I'm looking for something a little older, say 40 to 60 (I'm 60). Something fairly sophisticated, balding, small gut, yada yada. Can anyone reccomend a shop inworld or MarketPlace where I can find something like this?Trying to modify what I have is horrible.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WolfBaginski Bearsfoot Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 The Skin is likely the sticking point. But I would start with the Vituvian Shapes set from Penny Patton, and they're free. Vitruvian Shapes: Marketplace Most of the work on a shape will be on the face. If you have a shape with a face you like, it's easier to change the relatively few sliders for the torso and legs. I can't help with getting a good skin. My usual AV is a furry type, and the fur hides so much. It does occur to me that some aging effects could be added with a tattoo layer: age-related lines, wrinkles, and spots. More places to look... Anyway, I did a search on "old man skin", and there's a couple of hundred. Some look a bit too caricatured for my taste, but I could say that about some of the female skins I see.

Cradom Denimore Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share Posted October 14, 2014 Thanks everyone for the replys. Now for another round of link hopping. Edit: Thanks again everyone, I went with the Maxwell. Maybe I can get to look kinda like me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cradom Denimore Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 Like I said, I went with the Maxwell from here: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Aeros-Avatar-Maxwell/5922157 I found out editing the looks is considerably easier with this than the Brandon I was using. I also bought some tattoos which I may or may not use. Also, all the mesh clothes I have actually fit now! (well, most anyway) This avatar has a litle more hair than me but that's ok. I always did like the George Peppard look . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
