WereBeast Alpha Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Trying my best on getting my avatar to look like my old one on IMVU. But mostly look close to Mr. Beast (Is what I call him) from tv show Beauty and the beast. The middle photo is of my Avatar on second life of what I just took. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Brown Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 (edited) I don't want to look like a bodybuilder. I want to look like Mike Ness of Social Distortion circa the early 90s or Dean Winchester from Supernatural. Ruggedly handsome but not a model. I'm just getting into mesh bodies after fighting it all these years and finding a face I like is a nightmare. I had a system body and punk style I was happy with and trying to replicate that in mesh has been nothing but sheer aggravation.

I actually think that would be a very cool avatar to see in the world. That's a woman who's not interested in appealing to anybody's fetishes right there, bruh. In FFXIV, I play a max height, max muscle female Roegadyn. And even we don't get that much beef. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeathcliffMontague Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 Right... I started SL from not being a certain type, just SL. Just one in a million. Let us see what this is all about and all that.. Then I discoverd editing shape. Editing just a bit. And saw that some guys, nope, a lot - most got it all wrong. You can't just enlarge stuff. Things will follow and just make you look weird. SL with all "and that" as Karl Pikinson would say followed. All sorts of stuff. Slink put up a Herculean effort. Maybe BMP too. Then AES introduced the more normal (physisiology speaking, making veins, hands and all) male Aestetic. Jake and all the competing bodies etc ensued. Too simplified? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know nothing of bodybuilding, but have a friend in SL who wants to have a realistic body builder physique. He likes Aesthetic so far.

Aesthetic can be slimmed down to look less hulk and more realistic. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirishimarabbit Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 (edited) Hairy. Like super hairy. Fluffy even. A cute poofy backside and silky upright ears (or long and droopy, I don't discriminate). Alert, twitchy noses are also a must! If he doesn't look like this, we don't want him. Ladies, am I right?

I have mine pretty slimmed down, but you can make it more muscular if you like. There is also a very nice array of clothes for legacy if you're into shopping. Kario only has clothes for strippers haha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely adore bunnies. This is my go-to gif - You know, you can make some super cute furry rabbit avatars, if you haven't already! But please don't choose a buff body to do it with. 😆 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gopi Passiflora Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Whatever would be considered an "average guy" in real life, I guess? None of this bodybuilder or underwear model stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not every male avatar wants a six pack. Velour Homme - Eros body isn't too bad. They include a few different versions (slim, fit, and dad bod). I haven't tried them on myself, though. I think Not Found also has some body tone options. I think. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codex Alpha Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Simple. Fit, body ratio in proper proportion, life scale to SL ratio proper scale (not 8 feet superheros). What Ayashe has posted before me as an example the middle one is close, but all 3 look like aliens, the body proportions are all off... I haven't found a male avatar I've liked so far, so I'm still in the old default avatar and couldn't care less until something that actually looks like an average and fit male avatar comes along. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I feel like something is off with every single male body on the market. The calves always seem wrong, the shoulders, the upper arms...just something weird going on there for me. I do complain about female mesh bodies, too (I'm always fighting with Maitreya), but their issues are usually in the shoulders and thighs, for some reason. Kupra has tiny feet. I can't get any Belleza bodies to look right on me at all. Etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were the most balanced given the platform and because they were close to the standard sized avatar were a pleasure to make clothing for, etc and the proportions weren't too bad. Could have used a slightly more raised chest, but in clothes or outfits didn't matter they looked good. On the right is my SL avatar i've had since the very beginning, Actually not a bad ratio back then, but very low poly of course and jerky looking. Hated the weird faces of them all back then, so went with a cyber look. Mask was also to cover weird face. Dude standing in the casual suit looks like a normal average fit guy standing on the street and that's what I'm looking for, and their faces aren't so pretty and metrosexual or 'dreamy sex' like. In other words more of a base canvas to start with and faces that aren't too weird or too detailed. The FullSpectrum's were balanced that way. had decent detail but didn't go over the top. The Marvelous Designer ability to mold around the avatar was good too. My SL avatar had to try many many coats - since most of them were mesh they always looked bulky and like a winter coat, finally found pants and jacket that fit and didn't bulk my avatar up too much.
