~Portfolio Part One~


User Image Inventory Overview

15 pages of items, broken down:
5 - Black/Gray (shares with White/Gray)
2 - Blue
2 - Brown
2 - Green
1 - Orange
1 - Pink/Purple
3 - Red
2- Yellow
4 - White/Gray

User Image Summary:

Your inventory is heavily waited towards monochrome (black and white) with a surprising amount of red thrown in and also some cooler tones. You did not mention the other colors as favorites at all and yet aside from orange and pinkish/purple colors you have a nice variety of accent note color pieces. So I think it would be good to use some of those in subtle ways and break away from the monochrome habit.


~Portfolio Part Two~


User Image Style Overview:

Behatz you like "black, silver, white and gold" and those are great colors to use as a base to start from. I always see you though in black and white and wearing that Masterpieces item for the white skin. I do like the white skin but you can check out alternatives too.

So I will do an avi without a skin and one with an alternative skin that is pale. I will also do one or 2 with the Masterpieces skin.

Next is the hair. I think you should update your hair to a newer style, or a more fresh style like the one I have chosen to use. It is just a bit brighter and that can wake up your avatar and make it seem more alive.

Lastly is the matter of eyes. They can really convey emotion so you might want to consider using them. Actaeons Blessing is a little bit out of your price range, however, both eyes (gray and also yellowgold) layer over the Masterpiece skin. And they eyes look good too over the skin. Tektek does not do it justice so I will just throw that out there for your consideration.

User Image Avatar Set #1:
You like monochrome, but you can give the impression of monochrome without the skin and then use other colors for accent. I made the second one using the cape from the Urn item that you like and I added in some other interesting items like the silver pants from the Nartian item and some steampunk work boots.

- Main inventory item: Masterpieces...but used in a different way. Don't forget that your items have multiple poses.
- Consider buying: Dapper Gent's Vest Brown (which looks like a deep gold)
- Consider buying: Nartian Rock - take a look at it for the gray items.
- Useful common(s): SP Work Boots (there is the Ash color too that you might like and the boots layer over pants)

User Image Avatar Set #2:
You already know how to make monochrome avatars so nothing new there. I just thought I would try my hand at it too.

- Main inventory item: Masterpieces as you generally use it
- Consider buying: Sinister Scarf
- Useful common(s): Black leather belt
Example:

User Image Avatar Set #3:
You don't need the Masterpieces or white body dye for white skin. The Heavenly Skin (Lotus) pose is good but there is a lot of blue in it that you have to cover up. The Uncanny Form has that ice color which is also fairly blue but you can play that up a bit by layering the Twilight skin over it for a teal look. I added in the Teru Teru Bozu (using the rain pose now) for you because I think you might like the item if you are thinking of spending some gold. Sorry though, not positive the hat layers under the goggles. So I made another where the hat may also not layer, well you will have to play around with that if you like it.

Just a little further on the Uncanny skin (Ice), it is really ghostly looking, not solid like the Masterpieces. So if you consider it be careful.

By the way the Twilight skin does layer over the Masterpieces skin, so you could do the same look with Masterpieces.

- Main inventory item: Silent Night
- Consider buying: Uncanny Form
- Consider buying: Teru Teru Bozu
- Useful common(s): Boots
Example:

User Image Avatar Set #:
I was not really sure what I wanted to do for the last avatar and I did one in white and gold but I wasn't totally satisfied so I did something else too, but different. And then another one, same theme. So you can play around with this using items in the same palette.

- Main inventory item: Contact Lens
- Consider buying: Acid Teru Teru Bozu
- Consider buying: Devoted Pawn
- Useful common(s): Benkeis trousers come in some nice colors

I'm not overly fussed on Avatar Set #3, as I despise blue. mrgreen However, I thoroughly enjoyed Avatar Sets #1 and #4, and will consider employing Set #2 as well. The Teru Teru Bozu are gorgeous, and an item I didn't know existed. Nartian Rock I do love, and have been considering putting the Urn on hold to chase it. I think, in light of your opinion, I might just do that.

Oh I am so glad you like it. I really fussed over some of those avatars and that Teru Teru Bozu just seemed to suit you so well, either the white one or the black one would do. Maybe black. Anyhow, very glad you enjoyed the portfolio!! biggrin
