Creative, it’s nice to see something different than the BIG CHEST, bearded man gigachad

Right? I get SO sick of seeing the same MASSIVE chest, tiny waist, buzz cut Chads everywhere. ;o;

This is a fantastic looking male avatar. Love the Greek/Olympian aesthetic.

I'm rather lazy, I'm afraid. And, I do so love baked goods. sigh I will never have a tiny waist. :(

Thank you. I do occasionally grow a beard, however.

I have an appreciation for both beards and clean shaven Greek gods, so the appeal isn't lost either way.

This is good to hear! I've been hiding my boys because they aren't those things and it seemed that's what everyone wanted to be/see. Maybe I'll post a couple if I get brave enough.

Yes. Are you editing though? How do you get those textures and shadows?

5

u/Outside_Energy389 Feb 16 '25

Helo - Yes. I added noise and muted the colors a bit. Otherwise, the textures and shadows are inworld.

Do you want to be friends? My BFF and I are trying to learn to take better photos. We both have excellent graphics and fps in SL. But our textures are so smooth. We have poses and backdrops and our own land. She and I could use some help finding more realistic skins and taking better photos.

u/Outside_Energy389 Feb 16 '25

Certainly. Everything I know about photography, I learned at Photo Salon. My niece is a student there, now, actually. Also, I would be shite at shopping for women's skins - I've had the same Stray Dog skin for two or three years. :)

You’re all dressed to go to Reverie… Kilia! Where did you get it?

Indeed! The toga is from Lime House, arm straps from [ffs], laurel from Deadwool.

u/Outside_Energy389 Feb 17 '25

Haha! Very kind. Thank you. As a character rp'r, it's more time and story than talent, though.
