Ok so after years on imvu I decided to try SL and see how good it was. To fully appreciate it I need to sort myself a decent avi and this is wear I am struggling at present. I have done a bit of reading and research and am slowly getting to grips. It is so much more complicated than IMVU in every way. But i'm hoping its worth the effort. I am prepared to throw some money at it within reason and want to get my avi looking as realistic as possible (the whole thing I love about SL is the realism of the avis the textures etc).
So I'm currently thinking -
Male Mesh Body (Signature Gianni? over Slink as I want it muscled)
Male Mesh Head (although I read somewhere don't get a mesh head as you will look identical to everyone else - thoughts?) - if i go mesh then Catwa Bento looking favourite or do i go with Signature Gianni head to match the body or doesnt that matter.
I'm after a black avi (Tredente/Stanley Bento style)or a muscled hipster look (Volkstone Eric style look)
Eyes I've been told to try - L'etre - Suicidal Unborn - Mesange
Shapes I've been told - Speakeasy - [indigo] - strong men - aetherian shapes - Tredente - RM store - ascendant
Tattoos - speakeasy - identity - letis tattoo
Skins - straydog - VYC - Derme - Avenge - amias
ANY TIPS, ADVICE, ASSISTANCE is all very gratefully received. Also keen to meet friendly folks who need more friends! I'm a Virtual World addict.
HELP ME SEE HOW MUCH BETTER SL IS THAN IMVU - CHEERS!
