Do you like your portrait? (What "look" were you going for?)

I was going for an image of beauty and grace.

Semi RL, but older and with a really nice coat.

Sadly My guy looks nothing like his portrait when actually walking around in his station hotel room, kind of reminds me of Rich Hall wearing a nice coat.

I joined before Incarna, so I spent virtually no time on my avatar. It didn't really matter (and to me, still doesn't)

I gave him the mohawk because I actually have one, but it's not red. Douchebag facial hair, some studs in his face (back alley implant hook ups)
Goggles- the dude looks asian, which not being asian myself, doesn't really connect as well for me. Big stupid goggles give him a generic Steampunk asshat thing going on.

Have to be shirtless with a vest- nothing says uncontrolled body odor like leather on skin when welding on armor patches in the hangar.

I actually used my free aurum once- got CHiPs style jack boots and matching spandex tight pants - Ponch would be proud. Pants so tight you can guess my toon's religion..........

WiS means nothing to me, so I use Hangar View-- I never see any of my avatar than this one portrait.

I was going for the whole "a little more pleasant to stare at than the player behind her" thing. I can say with certainty that I've met my goal, not that it takes a whole lot.

Ominous pirate chick.

(Ironically, she is an anti-pirate. Still pretty omnicidal, tho!)

I made Trini to look like my RL GF.

She's more than happy to let me log in all I want to, now. Women are so easy to manipulate, lol.

When the character creator was new and there were all these beauty sites popping up, I wanted in on the fun. I guess the look I was going for was hot. Too bad I didn't bother with the body. I have one big butt let me tell you. Picture turned out nice though.
