Cause I was thinking about her, I did a TekTek of Mou in my perspective. I'll analyze it below the picture.
Now one of the first things I do when I make a TekTek is the hair, I tried to make it as realistic (as I knew) in accordance to the pictures I've seen as possible. After I finish the physical features of the avatar, I actually go in order that TekTek provides us from head to toe (to accessories and hands, What the ********?). I couldn't decide on a hat, because I'm incredibly picky about hats, and most of the hats on Gaia: Just. Plain. Suck. I chose the fire flower because since I've known her, Mou has been very warm, and from what I can tell passionate about her likes.
Moving on, I did a quick job choosing the shirt and pants, I chose something color neutral: grays because Mou is a very busy woman, she like never has time for us anymore. gonk This is what I imagine a rushed person would suffice for when leaving in the morning.
I chose the slippers because, a) they're silly and b) they're cute. Mou definitely has a silly side, and I thought these chickies definitely brought that out.
As for the accessories, I knew in a heartbeat which scarf I wanted to put on the avatar. This is not only my favorite of the Gaian scarves, but it reminds me of warmer, relaxed times, and for me personally, I generally get the feelings of love more towards fall (because I'm a psychotic weirdo, and I have seasonal feelings which are polar opposite to natural trends). The scarf is also very pretty, and I felt that it was the only scarf I could use to describe Mou with picture. Also, I have a fetish for scarves; it wouldn't be right without a scarf. gonk I chose the detective kit as a supplement for a messenger bag that has hit the trend for backpacks or larger purses with a passion. The detective kit is the most professional of all the "messenger bags" and I think that suits Mou's really busy lifestyle. The watch I chose also kinda matches the whole "busy" theme. I like to incorporate animals with my TekTeks for several reasons: they're cute, and they actually semi-remind me of the person I'm trying to illustrate or compose. A flying bunny is possibly one of the cutest things that I would always try to be hugging, holding, or kissing. Ergo, it reminds me of Mou and our flirtatious interactions. Next on the list was one of the possibly hardest things I've ever had to choose - the sunglasses. I couldn't think of anything else that could possibly create a sense of "cool" with all the busy and silly attributes with this avatar, the sunglasses provided me with the acute sense of "I'm cool, what now?" I was looking for.
Next, you can barely see it, but there is a devil tail, which Mou always, I repeat: ALWAYS has on her avatar. Lastly, and I'm sure everyone's tired of reading by this point, is an almost non-viewable rose corsage. There are like two green pixels that are the bottom right of the corsage. Mou has always wanted one, and I wanted nothing more than to give her what she seems to want most on Gaia.
