Pure sex. The background leaves a bit to be desired, and the lighting is good for showing off your body, but not very interesting. I've seen it done better, I guess is my point.

Still good though, 7/10. 10/10 if I vote with my *****.

I like the angle and the direction you look. Gives a sense of you staring at someone/-thing, but - for a change - leaves the viewer out of the equation.

I always like that your portraits feature Minmatar facial tattoos. They are a must have for me as well.

The zoomed in portrait works really well, because all the little details are visible and are able to sink in, but it is way too dark to show any details in the forum-size. The lighting also casts weird artifacts around the corners of your eyes.

Could be improved a lot with better lighting in my opinion.

I find that the your plain shirt doesn't belong with the texture of the rest of the avatar. Your hair, skin, background, face and chest are all textured and interesting. The flat shirt throws me off so badly that I just can't enjoy the rest of it.

6/10. Put on a better shirt and I believe you'd have a perfect 10/10.

Overall it's very nice, but the dark is too dark for my taste P

Love the corporate look - woman after my own heart... 9/10.

I really enjoy this avatar.

The only flaw for me is the stiff collar, the clipping on the chin and the weird shadow on the neck. I'm sure all that is easily fixable with a different pose. I'm not talking about changing the orientation of your head or shoulders, but select a different pos, so the collar and neck part doesn't look so messed up.

The colors work well. I was disappointed when I finally realized the seam in the background wasn't a staff you were carrying. Still, there's something about it that doesn't quite catch the eye like some of really good avatars around here. 8/10

Will you ever be able to change your background? Nope.

A different aesthetic, for sure, and one that I think works well. SOE's facial augmentations have surely made this thread a more interesting place. However, that background is awful. Get something that's light and complements and brings out the colors on the rest of you. Additionally, I'd lose or enhance the tattoo. It's a distracting afterthought. If you're going to do anything, do it boldly.

6/10 right now, but could be much better.

Those were indeed the two things I hesitated with during creation.

There aren't however too many background options, that would give me the same effect.

I wanted a strong profile, like you often times see with Native Americans and their headpiece. Since we don't have cool feathers or other trimming, I thought it would be a good idea to keep the back of the head in the shadow. Most light backgrounds would reveal the shape of my head though or I would have to move the character too far to the left which I don't like.

I changed to one now that at least contrasts the front of the face better. But during character creation I thought the smoke effect takes attention away from the profile line. Also that background is widely used. I would really like a completely black background here. That would be my favourite I guess.

One: Would be another favourite of mine.
Two: Has slight problem in upper left corner.
Three: Is allright I guess
Four: Too distracting around the armor.
Five: I like green and orange better than blue and orange.

Let's see what you guys think.

Yours is still an 8/10 as I have rated you before at the top of the page.

ps: Holy **** I'm a nerd.

I think the smoke exaggerates it. 10/10

Nephal.

Gorgeous face, gorgeous hair, perfect lighting and background game is on point. Your portrait is immaculately designed. I just really can't get behind your expression, though. Easy 10/10 before I zoom in, 5/10 after. I'll round up and call it eight of ten because your clavicles are hot.
