  1. My older sister, my niece, my ex boyfriends (none of them had any more enthusiasm than trying certain naughty games, meh 🙄), and last week I convinced a good friend that she is customizing her avatar and I love watching her discover SL.

    My sister login much more than I do and now I'm the one asking her questions when I'm lost. I think she's going for her sixth virtual husband, or something like that.

    Probably not a good choice if a vast universe of skins and makeup are important to you, but do check out the latest generation of LOGO heads, Mae and Willow. I find they are a good match with my softer body shape. 

    Wow. 😍
    Lovely face.

    I'm still looking for bento heads. I wanna cry. 🤦‍♀️

    Oh, I have struggled with that one! I also just have to have a chin dimple, but there are no good mesh heads with that...

    Currently, I faked it by adding some shadow and highlights when I made my skin - but it is hard to get it to look defined enough without it looking too "drawn on".

    I might have to do it more pronounced than this, but at least I've got some of the look going :D

    OMG, I love it!
    I'm glad and sad that you understand me. But you done a good job! 
    I hope read us a designer of mesh heads and remember there are people with chin dimple. 😉

    You can always try the opensource Ruth project to see if the head matches the sliders that you want. They recreated the standard default SL avatar into mesh.  It comes with an alpha hud and skin hud, but i'm not sure how skins will work with it.  You will probably need the UUID or something.  If not, you will have to wait for the Bakes-On-Mesh project to release for SL, then you will be able to use system skins.

    Afaik, they don't sell it in SL, but i think other people have repackaged it for SL.  Here are some links to grab a copy.

    There's also a group called Ruth and Roth Community that you can join and ask for help, but i don't know how to link group joins, so just search within SL and it should pop up.

    Thank you!
    I'll find the group, and  try Ruth head.  Bakes-On-Mesh project sounds good, too. Don't mind waiting, if worth it. Thanks again, really. 🙂

    You'll want a bento head that looks like Ruth then. Heads with very unique features tend to move too far away from the Ruth shape and using the sliders has less, or no, effect on the head and it is difficult to create a shape that looks like anything but that mesh head. I am sure someone could give a technical explanation for that.

    The <UTILIZATOR> Normie Head is pretty close to the standard SL avatar head, and will give you lots of room to move with most sliders. It might be worth trying a demo to see if you can create a suitable shape with it. It is cheap and Omega compatible.

    OMG, do you think it will work? I've not tried that head. But I'm scared! I mean, my avy have chin dimple (like me 🙄), and I'm supposed to look for a mesh head the most similar, right? A mesh head with oval face it would be a bad idea, it's correct? Attach pic. (Skins Glam Affair, since I can remember. I found The Skin for me.)

    Thanks for the suggest, Stephanie.

    That is exactly my story, except I've never had a prolonged absence. I spend a few hours trying demos and get really tired of it and give up until next time.

    I'm wondering if there is a consultant that I could pay to find the right mesh head for me. It is important to me that I keep looking like me; I'd just like a better version, not a different face. 

     

     

    To my arms!
    I feel in the resistance. Thirteen years are many years, I've lost a lot of time to have the appearance that I have (improved version of my real self). All bento head that I tried, lose my identity, but at the same time, I feel outdated, all the people around me recommending bento heads. I see the textures, I breathtaking at the perfection of pixels, I'm not blind!
    I just want a bento head that fits my facial features, fluid, like a second skin. Ironic, right? :(
    Please, we need a consultant ingame!!
