Second Life Avatars






While looking for ideas for my fantasy avatar, I noticed that the Second Life store had a lot of animal-related elements that were available to purchase. I figured I would use this as a springboard, using a faun as inspiration, while still avoiding the "furry" look for my avatar. I had a lot of fun making this one and gave her faun makeup, horns, and hooves, although you cannot see them in the pictures, sadly. I honestly think it was more difficult to make the 'real' avatar of myself, however, as you can't always tweak the settings the way you want. You really have to find the best way to work around what the program has to offer. I am pretty pleased with the way everything turned out, but it was frustrating to have technical difficulties during the final meeting!
