@Ruvan Oakstark: I was just about to say I love everything about it then you updated it. I prefer your old avatar personally good use of colour and it's nice to see some texture in the face. 9/10 for old 5/10 for new.


Really?! I thought changing the background and picking a unique pose would be an improvement. I felt the previous was too dull and cliche. Is it the lighting change you dont like mostly? Im open to feedback.

You better roll that first 'R' when you say my name. Seriously.

Personally I think the lighting of the previous avatar worked really well, it had good contrast with the eyes which made for a great focal point. I don't know I've never really been keen on a lot of the eve poses. I guess i'm just boring and as Zimmy said, it made your avatar pretty intimidating which is fitting for EVE.

Now all you need is an alt to face the other way lol.

Could use brighter background too btw lol

8.6/10

[Ivy Romanova] I realize everyone else is comparing your current portrait to your previous ones, but this one is pretty good on it's own merits. Oddly enough it actually is a bit more expressive and realistic than your others. It looks like your character is actually doing cosplay, say 2 parts Cherry 2000 and 1 part Pris from Blade Runner with a heavy dose of Liza Minnelli. It's an interesting look. 9/10

ahhh well.
Thx for the compliment lol.

But thats the way it is .
When they think you've reached the "pinaccle" of your achievements , whatever you do next will be compared back to that point.
At that point fore on , a breakthrough... a complete change in the philosophy of portrait design will be needed lol.

I am awaiting that burp of creativity lol.

Onto your portrait ,its alright , albeit the BOOZOOKAS are a bit unnecessary , not to mention... it lacks something of ... livability , the portrait is not alive...
Its not talking to me...

so
7/10

Shocked Having seen a lot of your other portraits...

This one is among my top favorite :D

9/10

You give me the sense of some japanese-trained super-secret agent with psionic powers that would kick my ass, while still retaining your trademark 'badass' look. :D

Love the tatoo and over-applied make-up (or skin tone... w/e)

@Ivy Romanova

ehhh i'll have to admit , she does look pretty darn cool.
But if you ask me ... she looks a bit ... well... manly
The chin is a tad too wide and the nose is a bit f-ed up.
Feels like someone covered her in chrome too lol

8.5/10

But the"BOOZOOKAS" do "talk" to the males. Even when they aren't *gasp* fake. That's the whole idea, is it not?Shocked

As far as your portrait - 9/10 worthy.
Also I wonder if you keep track of changes, and how many Gb's the gallery takes on your harddrive Lol

Check out the goods

OKEY DOKEY!
Onto your portrait
I thought CCP forced everyone to redo their portrait if they are going commando lol.
Oh well lol
That face is like saying to the men
"hello? my face is up here?"

LOL
8.9/10 if not for the overly "harmonious color scheme"

@Ivy

I like the hair. But, I'm partial to a touch of red (as you probably guessed). The make-up rendition you have going there comes off a bit clownish, though. All in all, I preferred your previous incarnation. I think with this one, you perhaps should've went with black lipstick and a darker shade of "eye-paint." But, that's just me. Pose is authoritative and yet meek. Background works with the color scheme nicely.

Overall 7/10

You better roll that first 'R' when you say my name. Seriously.

@Ruvan Oakstark
I'll just say it straight - you butchered one of the best avatars.
Yea, the previous version was oh so much better.
Menacing bad attitude expression(even for a brute,) got traded for a look a primadonna would throw.
Insert "unless you were going for it" quote here.
7/10 - down from 9.5/10

The character creation got patched up - cannot recreate the "braless" avatars any longer. I just don't plan to recustomize for now P Plus going commando would rather mean "no panty."

And the comic captures the idea 100%

I appreciate the input and feedback about my portrait change. I'm going to seriously take that under consideration and tweak it tonight. Thanks. Blink

The face looks rather clean and generic. It's not bad, it could definitely do, but something's missing.

The background.

I don't like this overused boring Galente logo background.



hmmmm...

Since CCP allows custom Alliance logos, how comes that we have never asked them to provide us portrait backgrounds with those very logos?

If the background was a tint darker, with a big fat bee....then your portrait would be 11/10.

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.
