Are you even an owner of an animal avatar if you haven't been half-dragged to some adoption agency because you're too polite to say no? Yeah, that was my last hour, all because I didn't feel like being confined to humanity's expectation for decorum for fifteen minutes in a sandbox. Then I crashed. It's like the universe took pity on me somehow. It really said "Here, you absolute fool, a get-out-of-adoption free card." Thank goodness.

Something something joke about me being caribou, and that's just another name for reindeer, etc. Either way, very cute picture!

When is close-up too close? A raw snap this time because lazy.

"I'd ask if you were feeling lucky, but that's a bit too gauche."

Personally, no to both. Mostly because I find them unsightly; and secondly it really doesn't matter in the long run. We look at each other, that's what we do. Staring at each other's avatars is most peoples past time here, so I'm not sure what the whole commitment to acting like we don't peek at whoever just dropping in next to us at an event, or some such. As other people have said, I can see the reason for turning your own off for either drama reasons because people find the strangest things to be mad at (Why be angry someone's appreciating you? Silly to me.) or for animation-based reasons.

First of all, handsome as always. Second of all, I used to play harp!

Ha, I see it. If there's ever a casting call for the reboot, I'm available.

Posted this earlier in the questions about making unique avatars thread, but I decided to clean it up.

[slowly slides the tome bound in human skin under the table] Absolutely zero malevolent artifacts between the two of us.

This is how I make every one of my avatars, funnily enough. I can't do it otherwise. It's the years of designing my own characters in my art I suppose. I've always started with an idea of a person or a central theme to adhere to. None of them have to be super in-depth, but I need at least some sort of vibe, or core idea to this person, or else why am I making them? Anyone can make a cute avatar, sure. But that's not my goal. It makes it almost mandatory you hunt and shape and do weird things if you choose something interesting. I also loved hearing the backstory, very intriguing! Made me want to share a little of mine for my usual guy I trot around on here, this blonde dork, you know him by now. Dude's a private investigator in Arkham, Massachusetts, after his years of a middling music career fell through. There's more, but that's pretty much all you need to know. I'm sure you can extrapolate most of the themes and shenanigans of that backstory better than I could tell it But! I'm waxing on a bit and not giving actionable advice. If you really want some easy tips for unique looks; most people have said it. BOM is your savior, just slap a ton of things onto a skin until it's completely new is my modus operandi, and it works pretty well. Tattoos, imperfections, details, just anything you can cram on there, chances are you'd be the first person to combine them all in such a way!

I always felt those abandoned mainland parcels or the very little used stores you see along the roadways gave off a very cursed vibe. Bonus points if they're especially outdated with nary a mesh to be seen in half a kilometer. Something so desolate about it, I suppose. There's beautiful places on mainland, but I'd rather curate accordingly because it really does give an air of strange futility that I'm not ready to grapple with at like, 2 PM on a Tuesday or whenever.

Having indulged in Halloween capers enough for this month until the huge ghoulish seance tomorrow, I've ripped apart a sword and Frankensteined the script into other things to make items removable and holdable. (Yes, the fps is bad, I optimized the gifs from the mp4 shhhh)

I'd jump those bones.

Dunno why I use this thread as "where I post misadventures in avatar editing" but here we are... Anyways! Guess who just found out about eyelid deformers? Love these things. Finally got the personality I wanted for this character. Absolutely chuffed about it.

Trying my hand at decorating.
