@Nilisa
There is a strange aura over your avatar, but I guess that's the intention. It's like colours and life has been drained only leaving an ice cold lady behind. I like it, but the haircolour is a bit bad tbh and the background isn't that good. The eyeshadow is a bit out of place as well, try with another one and you should try with another pose instead.

8.5/10

got ninjaed :(

@Sheimi

You looks like one of those far too serious girls at the university who would give you an angry look if you made the sligthest noice during a lecture. And your avatar got the exact same look in her eyes.

8/10

@Mizhir she looks kinda sad, but it's still pretty damn good. 9/10

That's some overdone avatar... but it looks kinda surreal, like something Dali would drop on a sketchboard while waiting for the bus. Specially the mouth is a killer... So will say 8/10.

@ Indah:

Looks a little bit like your application picture for Brutor Tribe, Indah :P

Realistic look, body that doesn't look like it was designed by a teenage boy. My only gripe is that the lighting does not fit the background - it is direct and the background lighting is angled. That kills the realism of the image.

I'd say 9/10.

I absolutely love the expression and the design of the character overall. I'm not a major fan of the lighting, part of me says it works but part of me doesn't. 9/10

I like the face + expression, but the colors are just so bright. I feel like slightly more muted colors + a more colorful background would work a little better but that's just me. I'd say 8-8.5/10.

Regarding the lighting I used for Akirei, I find bright lighting makes an avatar's skin look like plastic. Real skin diffuses light, it doesn't reflect it unless the skin is really oily, and even then only to a degree.

Taking a naturally bright light source, turning its intensity WAY down, and then using one of the muted, single source settings makes skin look more natural. It's what I did for Akirei and the results are pretty decent IMO, the only limitation is you can't have strong lighting and a natural looking avatar.

Real Skin 1
Real Skin 2
Bad CGI Skin 1

@Akirei

ew, just so fugly. 10/10.

Seriously though, I love it. One of those ones that just works all-around. The pose itself is probably my favorite part though. It's kinda hard to explain. It's got that cute, yet hard edge to it. Also, you have impeccable taste in hairstyles :p

@Chuchu

Im going to say something like 8/10.
I like the face expression and it is sweet overall but i dont think the background fits in.

@ Nometh: The face and character design is pretty decent, but the background doesn't fit in my opinion.
Your character looks like a shady, violent thug, yet he is standing in front of the "Baywatch" background that usually only works with bleached blond space barbies.
As much as I hate to see "yet another gray concrete wall" as the generic background of 90% of the avatars, I think in your case it would fit much better.
7/10

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.

@zimmy: I think I like your previous portrait better. Needs more shadows, and make the eyes look toward the camera to increase creepy factor. Please dont eat me :) 7/10

Graygor is still a fabulous sugar-daddy. Nothing to see here, move along. I hate the shades selection in the game but in this case it's probably for the better. 'I have to wear these, otherwise you'll be dazzled by my brilliant eyes'.

8/10, it's difficult to get a wide shot that carries any real expression due to the limited posing options.

Halete is looking mysterious somehow, but also a little sad and angry at the same time.
I'd give her a 7/10.

I like the lighting, expression and mood of the image, but it feels kind of generic. I don't know what to say. It all fits together nicely though, from the tattoo to the lighting. I'd say 8/10.

Excellent use of lighting and great overall presentation. I enjoy realism and I think you nailed it solid. Gj --9.5/10--

The face is quite nice and I don't think I've seen the tattoo before so it's pretty original 8/10
