I just tried to not end up looking like every other male Gallente avatar.

I support James 315 and the New Order of Highsec

I think I subconsciously drew inspiration from an old coworker (according to my roommate at least) and a bit from my best friend (according to my other roommate). Both of them are very petite, so I picture Celeste to be also 5' although there is not much in the CQ to use as a relative scale.

When I designed Celeste I was just trying to get a friendly look to her. I was also attempting to find a youthful just graduated from the academy look. Someone who isn't bitter and cynical. The type of person you I would like to be around since mean people suck.. The more I think about it the more she does remind me of my best friend.

Started off as my ideal look...

Somehow I went from soft-ethnic-dark hair dark/eyes to sharp featured-whitey-platinum blonde- sultry look. Have no idea how it happened... I'm not one to fight against the creative process. Big smile

Some of the features taken from the old character creator
But with a dash of "I'll rip your face off if you **** me off"...that's about it Smile

I design my characters with the question in mind: "would I do her?".

Nothing else.

I don't need inspiration for my character-design. I just mess around with the Character Editor until I find a look I like.

I *still* think yours was inspired by my crazy ex-girlfriend. Dye the hair blonde and you'd be a perfect match, crazy stare and all.

I usually just play around with the character creator until it fits the image of the character's personality I have in mind.. or until I just like it, hehe.

Had just read a great book about the Sex Pistols and the '70s British punk scene. So had to be Minmatar, the most punkish of the 4 races.

Myself mostly.

And haven't changed it since I got my new graphics card (one that can handle CQ), so some of it is because of lag.


Should probably do that since I still have a full resculpt from way back.
