Mumblings of a Faintly-Annoyed Teenager
This is mostly for a place for me to record old avatars I was especially pleased with, or costumes I've come up with on tektek that looked cool. Feel free to leave a comment. Good, bad or ugly, constructive criticism is always welcome!
My Old Avatars 3
I've filled up another post to its fullest with past avis that I've either thrown together, meticulously planned and quested for, or some happy combination of the two. That being the case, I've had to start in on the third installment in this little series I've got going here.

Yet another Fai D. Flourite cosplay. Can you tell I luff him yet? This is him in Infinity, better known as the chess world or the goth world, or even both. I couldn't do much about the hair color or length, and all of my little trademarks are still there, but I think it's a pretty good imitation. I even found a way to give him/her a yellow eye! Yes, I'm proud of myself. That was the one tricky bit: conveying his new vampirism His yellow eye (Skittles contact) I've already mentioned, but I also added his claws (Freddy gloves) and unwilling thirst (Picolitrosso's Urn, the "glass of red wine" pose, although as usual with tektek, it didn't translate all that well). Otherwise, it was pretty straightforward. All black, bare the navel, slap on some claws, look angsty, and you're done!

My anti-Prop 8 avi. Yes, I know it was nine months ago, but I'm still bitter about it. I've said it before and I'll say it again: I consider myself a fairly open-minded person, but I just cannot wrap my head around the idea that anybody could deny two people the right to express their lifelong love and commitment merely because of a few chromosomes!

I honestly do not remember why I saved this one, but there must have been a reason, otherwise why is it here? The best I can come up with is that she looks a tiny bit like the RL me, only I wear contacts instead of glasses, and wearing bell bottoms instead of jeans is highly atypical for me. Also, I have short hair, although I am growing it out again, but I've never worn it braided.

This one has been on my wish list for a while now. I sort of started out with a Highwayman/Scarlet Pimpernel feel, then added in a dash of Guild of Assassins (from Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels). I like my rogues dark in color, but light in personality. Therefore, this one, like all my previous rogue/assassin/thief pieces, seems to be having a good time rather than committing a felony.

This one is a bit different from my usual fare. I started out just going for a socialite/society lady feel, but all the clothes I had to work with were black or dark, so I think I ended up with a sort of especially dark Bond girl.

Whenever I try for an ethereal, faerie look, it usually comes out either cheesy or too modern, but this time I think I've struck the right balance. I'm still not so sure about the Circlet, but it was the best I could do. Oh, how I wish that tektek included moveable arms! For me, one of the best aspects of this avi was the way the stole draped when her arms moved to hold the book open and flat in front of her.

This avi, or various versions thereof, has been on my wish list for a while. I haven't been questing for it directly, I just quest as the mood takes me, and eventually I get everything together. The original version didn't have the Picolitrosso's Urn veil, and now I'm not so sure about adding it...

A close relative of my last entry, although not by design. I guess I'm just in a Gothicy mood these days...*huggles Bram Stoker* And yes, I am aware of the irony inherant in using the words "huggle," "Gothicy," and "Bram Stoker" in the same sentence.

I got a bit caught up in the item description for the Mysterious Passenger Luggage, as well as the "fur hat" pose, so I think this one is some sort of Cold War-era spy/femme fatale. Of course, you'll have to imagine her holding the gun up, as though menacing someone off-screen.

I was just messing around with all my new Gothic goodies, and I think I ended up with a kind of Mrs. Lovett look. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a huge Sweeny Todd fan or anything, this is just sort of what came to mind. I realize that she needs some sort of headgear, but everything I tried just mucked it up. Oh, well.

A variation, although an unwitting one, on a few of my old fairy(tale) wedding/Thumbelina pieces. I tried to go for more of a windy/cloudy/swirly feel here than the usual sparkly one. And yes, I realize that the cloud shoulder things are a tad unnecessary, but they're what gave me the idea in the first place, so they deserve to stay.

The effect I was going for here was "coldly beautiful," like a faraway star in the stark cold of space. I started out thinking that the Inari's Beads was a nice touch of black and blue, but now I'm starting to think that it rather overwhelms the Fremere's Guard/Picolitrosso's Urn combo that is the focus of the piece. The idea here was for it to be all black and white/silver, but for this dash of blue in the center. What do you think? I *know* there's someone reading this, so why not drop me a comment on your way out?

I know I'm not the biggest steampunk fan, so when I manage to hit upon something vaguely steampunk-y, I like to save it. My inventory is geared more towards velvet and silk than leather and brass, so when everything comes together just right, it's something of an accomplishment, if an unwitting one.I know, the goggles somehow ended up under her hair, but I can't seem to fix it, so there they stay.

The first of a series of Harry Potter cosplays I've been working on since the new items came out. This one is, obviously, a Quidditch player, with broom, team robes, snitch, and goggles, although that last one doesn't seem to want to come out from behind my bangs. Yes, I am proud of myself for working out the gloves.

My first second Harry Potter cosplay in as many days. This one is a more traditional student, with the traditional cauldron, spellbook, robes, wand, brainy specs (Doctor Who reference), and pet owl. I debated having a cat, rat, or toad in there as well, but I can't do a toad without buying something expensive, my only cat looks too cartoon-y, and the rat...just didn't work.

My third and final Harry Potter cosplay, this one more Marauder-era centric. I'm afraid I couldn't find any clothes with anything remotely close to the Order of the Phoenix insignia, but I've tried to go for a sort of robe-like/military feel. I've got Padfoot and Wormtail in the picture, but I don't have any deer-themed items for Prongs, or any werewolf-themed ones for Moony.

I was feeling vaguely Victorian after seeing Sherlock Holmes, and this was the result. As usual, tektek couldn't capture the arm placements correctly, so you'll just have to imagine the parasol open and over her shoulder, and the Heart of Gold, lacking the key and chain, held up in her other hand.

A lot of my nature-themed pieces are on the militant side, so I was pretty glad to strike a more sprightly, if you'll forgive the term, tone here, sort of a more Shakesperean fairy, without dipping into the sentimentalism of Victorian flower-fairies.

Huzzahs are in order! My Gogh Reed finally finished evolving, bringing the long-awaited Zero Hair! I'd originally had another avi planned, but this one just sort of fell into place. I like the similarity in color and tone between the cloak and the hair, and how the steely gray/off-white both compliments and contrasts the straight white of the gown and sleeves. As usual, TekTek has buggered up the hand positions, so you'll have to imagine the Snow Bird and Archangel's Blade having switched hands, and the Snow Bird held in the crook of her arm, instead of straight down.

Closely related to the previous avi, this is (basically) what was on my wishlist, as opposed to what I threw together on the spur of the moment. On my actual wishlist, however, this avi also sported Silver Genie Bangle Bracelets and Elven Ears. The bangles couldn't really be seen on the finished avi, so I decided that they were superfluous, and the Elven Ears aren't really applicable anywhere else, so I decided that the 4,000 gold required to buy them might be put to better use elsewhere. The version you see here was also lacking the Fallen Wish (Star Ribbon), a.k.a. the sash or bandolier, which wasn't a huge change, but it does allieviate the harsher orange of the dress, and stop it from overwhelming the white and grey that comprises the majority of the rest of the avi.

This is one of my wishlist avis, although in a slightly modified form (the Silent Night was added on the spur of the moment). I've had this one in my wishlist for a while. The funny thing is, I had almost all of the items, I just needed the Raider Shih's Garment to complete it. I would start to quest for it, get bored or distracted, move on to something else, and then start all over again. Anyway, it's here now, and I think it adds a nicely sublte, feminie flair to my usual Highwayperson getup.

I've done avis that are holding or interacting with birds before, but I've never actually tried to depict the avi itself as a bird. I know, there are a million and one "I am..." poses of various items, and quite a number of them are birds, but that's always seemed like kind of a cop-out to me. I wanted the avi to be recognizable as "me," but also unmistakably avian.

Another wishlist avi. I've slightly modified this one in practice, so that it's wearing the Forest Wreath pose of Spring Nymph instead of Forest Mantle, but I guess they both work equally well. I've been futzing around with the hair, because I'm not so sure about brown hair and red fox ears/tail on a predominantly green avi, but I couldn't find anything better, so here it is.

This was originally supposed to be a series (ok, a pair) of avis, telling a sort of story where the character gets an invitation, then goes to some sort of Gothic ball, but I didn't really have enough good material for two, so I condensed them into one. This is primarily the first one, but the mask, shoes (which you can't see, I know) and roses were from the second. The idea was for the first avi to contain simpler, less ornate clothes, the kind a girl might wear while haning around her crypt on a lazy Saturday afternoon, while the second was supposed to be fancier party dress/formal wear.

For some rason, this one makes me think of both Holly Short and the Village People, with maybe a bit of Amy Pond thrown in. Unusually enough (for me, at least), this avi isn't supposed to "be" anything in particular, she just is. If pressed, I'd have to say that she's a law enforcement officer of some kind, as well as a fae of some kind. She was supposed to be holding the "Fruit" pose of the Titan's Legacy in her hand, but TekTek doesn't have it.

A Supernatural cosplay, although not of any one character in particular. This is just how I think my avi would look if she was a hunter. Badass, heavily armed, a not-quite-sincere smile always quirking her lips. Inspired in part by the latest episode, "Point of No Return," in which the realization struck me that things have gotten so utterly bleak that any time any character displays any sort of affection or hope, I automatically assume that they are lying, possessed, or both. Be that as it may, I've got the Colt (the revolver), Cas' angel-slaying knife/shortsword/whatchamacallit (the kunai), a belt of stakes (handy for slaying vamps, Pagan gods, and Whores of Babylon), a brace of conventional guns (for the increasingly rare enemy who's not an angel, a demon, or a god), and Michael's sword (half bad pun, half practical weapon).

I honestly didn't intend to save this avi. I mean, yeah, it's pretty enough, but there's nothing really outstanding about it, or so I thought. I haven't taken it off for four days (I usually change my avi's outfit daily), so I guess there was something about this one worth saving. Meh. I wasn't really sure whether to add the Raider Shih's top, or leave it with just the G-LOL Dark Mistress one, but I thought that the more greyish tones of Raider Shih nicely complemented the simlarly-gray Defiant Roses and Kottan Bell's Parasol, whereas the G-LOL Dark Mistress top was too flat black. Oh, and due to TekTek's general f*ckery, the Parasol should be in her other hand, which should be bent, not straight down.

As I've said before, I don't know much about steampunk or cyberpunk, so when I end up with an avi that is a passable representation of one or the other, it makes me happy. Plenty of leather and brass, big chunky lines, add plenty of things with straps and/or attachments. In fact, I think the operative word I'd use for this is "strappy." I even managed to work in some cyberpunk with the Holographic Eyepiece! Go me! And yes, I know that she has a quiver, but no bow. Let's just pretend that she has a collapsable bow not viewable from the front. Yeah, let's go with that. XD

A cosplay of one Harry Dresden, who I know I've done before, but several reasonably-priced items have come out since my last shot at the character, giving me a chance to do a more complete, more intricate version. This is definitely a pre-Changes Harry, with his battered, awesome leather duster, (literally) kick-a** boots, trusty old revolver, blasting rod (sorry, I couldn't find anything good for his staff), cauldron o' making stuff, Turn Coat-induced facial scars, and the big black dog is as close as I could get to Mouse.

Me LIEK WOAH. I know I usually make rather strange, fanciful avis, but this time, it's just me, as near as I can get to my RL self with the contents of my inventory. Long black skirt, green t-shirt (although my favorite green t-shirt has a Celtic knot of ravens, not a star), white socks, black flats, necklace (although my pendant is moonstone, not jade), my new short hair, little black glasses, my trusty laptop (Lila), and books galore. I thought it might be nice to toss in a little dash of realistic nerd, along with all the warrior queens and faeries and mages that are my usual fare.

I swear I don't do as much steampunk as this list suggests, it's just that (as I've said) I'm relatively unfamiliar with the steampunk aestetic, so when I do something that looks semi-right, I get to feel all proud of myself. Unfortunately, her goggles seem to have been hidden by her bangs, but they're there anyway. I kinda wish I had a Techno-Mage MC to add to this, but I don't think it's half bad the way it is.

For the story behind this one, just imagine the Firefly episode "Shindig" written by Edgar Allen Poe. With maybe a hint of Faust. A duelist became so obsessed with her sport that she traded her eyes to become the greatest swordsman (or swordswoman, for that matter) in the world. If you ever really find yourself in a jam, and you needs somebody to stand in for you, or if you just need someone taken care of, call on her. Be warned, though, her price is high and her methods somewhat disturbing.
