I want to talk about avatars, but the AT is annoying me...

[lilartichoke]

So tell me your inspiration.
I want to know what you were thinking when you threw on that get up.
(post your avi if you change)

Here's my story...
Originally I was working with the belt. I wanted to wear it. It reminds me of a tartlet pop star... so I started making one... but I wanted my girl to be a little less put together, so she's like an LA girl who hangs out at the beach too much.
Then this person in the AT wanted zombies to kill, so I transformed her into a zombie using the new porcelain skin (which I ******** adore). Added the pool of blood, 'cause I've been looking for an excuse and the vampire victim who I thought kinda resembled a crawling zombie boy or something. The shoe is just for that "wtf" factor that I like to do.
So yeah. Zombie teeny-bopper.

That's awesome xd

I wish I had a cool story to go along with my avi, but I don't xp
I just really liked the Gimpi hoodie and Fallen Wish hair and I like monotone, so I made an outfit around it...

On a totally unrelated note, I'm starting to really hate the layering on tektek mad
Where's the petition for layering options on Gaia? I'll gladly sign xd

Ideas behind avatars. confused I fail at them... But I think I'm quite consistent with being cute xp

-prods old thread-
I was originally going to make an autumny themed av with golds and reds and browns, but it was still so warm here that I couldn't quite ge in the right mindframe for it, so instead I used a brighter yellow, no brown and made it a bit summery-er! I like to think of it like a sunset.  

[Razin Frostdrake]

Razin has been an alternate identity of mine for a long time, he's steadily evolved over time, originally just a drawing of a person somewhat similar to me irl but always wore blue.

first he began as a me with blue hair and beard, with blue trimmed or colored clothes,

the next incarnation was with tattoos and the clothes became of a "bondage" style, the straps on the pants would be blue etc.

then the skin became blue and the long coat which i wore was added, i'd sometimes draw in a dragon somewhere. pet, shirt design, etc.

eventually he became the dragon with blue scales, wings, claws, last version included what's known as phat pants, pants with a large opening at the ankle. the coat changed from a distinct long leather coat to an extra long open short sleeved button shirt like design.

the tattoo like design for the inner shirt and the smiley on the pants were added before the finished form, they made the concept whole to me.

in the end i keep my av based on Razin the character i've created over time, though since razin has been both blue and black and blue and white depending on the incarnation, i give my gaia av more slack than i do the char i've created. as the av can be changed much easier than the character can be.

the most recent of designs, a commission i had done on gaia

I hate the FS. They can be annoying and intimidating at the same time gonk

Umm I think I sent for people to make tekteks for me a long long time ago, but required it to use my dear OMFG. When I found it, my avatar was waaay more simple. It's really grown to be just "me"

 

[Salmay]

I tried to plan for my various avatars to have themes but it doesn't seem to work.

I wanted one to be a nice little girl and she only wants to wear leather.

I wanted one to be demonic and she insists on cute little girl clothes and plushies.

My tough guy wanted to be elegant.

I dunno.
