what's stopping you from updating your ...


For the longest time the Z axis changes in the studio after spending 'soon' amounts of time trying to get things right. While the initial Z axis freedom at incarna 1.0 may have caused some unusual results / accidental midgets as well as forms of visual protest...(with good reason)..

If you knew what you were doing with a camera you could be really precise about lighting & camera position. This was great and awesome. (if you liked being creative with a camera/lighting in a studio).

Unfortunately at one point it was changed. Portraits that existed before the change were unaffected but you could never go back and edit them or touch them up at all as doing so would force new camera Z axis restrictions.

I don't like my char. I made a female char because there was insufficient choice available for a resembling autoportrait male char. We need more long hair styles for male chars. Not all men with long hair have dreadlocks...

CCP please create a Boxxy eye make-up & mooninite shirt package in the NEX store, just for me P


Boxxy?

That gratingly shrill, barking-mad-dog, batshit insane thing is still around?


Yes she is, and always in my heart P

And you say "batshit insane" like it is a bad thing.


Not necessarily, I just think it'd be better if she learned to be a skosh more subtle about it--It's always the quiet ones, after all Twisted

I was going for an 'angry escaped slave' look (which really worked better with her old hair and jacket, but oh well Roll...)

I can't get rid of my darn signature!  Oh, wait....

I was trying to get this to look like I do in RL.

Fortunately I don't look like Snape in RL.

in 3D walking around in CQ I look like a cross between Edward Scissorhands and Pee Wee Herman.

/me laughs.

That is exactly the look you got! Uncanny, haha...

I was going for a wild eyed, edgy, Intaki character of negligible trustworthiness, while I don't have my awesome headgear I think I did a pretty good job..

... At least its not a mugshot pose, like the masses.

I'm pretty pleased with the way mine turned out. I wanted a stern, bordering on mean, look.

Should be pretty obvious just by looking at it, but just in case:

A confident tomboy warrior who is far older and wiser than she looks at first glance.

Alternatively, a butch lesbian.

Alternatively, a young asian boy.

Let's just say I like the androgynous look and leave it at that, eh?
