Fa Art Is Officially Finished!; Introducing new Artwork

Hey guys! In addition to new equine art, I'm working on the human avatars for the new site! I have a male sketched out (not suuuper happy with it yet, so not showing that yet), but the female base is DONE! Please note that the base has only place holders for the eyes / lips at the moment. We will have several to choose from, and I didn't want to have those actually be a part of the base design. We have not yet decided if the leg fluff will remain the color of the HA, or if it will have colored fur. I have all the shading on its own layers, so its very versatile ^.^

Well, your the artist and know how hard it will be to make items for the avis, so it's your decision. Either way, I like how its turning out. XD

Welcome to DDW, Tobyana! Knowing your artistic qualities from Aywas, I'm glad to see you here. :)

I love how the avatar isn't standing on her feet, it's a nice change from the other sites I know.

Okirin is right, that is different. XD I actually think I've never seen a site with avatars that wasn't standing, so to break from the norm is really awesome. XD

In general, its going to be super easy to add, really hard / impossible (depending on how the tool / coding is put together / NOT MY DEPARTMENT x.x) to take away. So I'm thinking thinner / more daintier feet/er,hooves for the base, so that we have more room to play with modifying the feet later. These feet will DEFINITELY be an option, either in the base choices (again, not sure how we are going to set it up yet), or as an item to layer over the avatar.

Thank you Okirin!

And yes, that was very intentional. Every avatar I have seen has been pretty much the same. Standing, 3 /4 or head on view, with the arms to the sides (usually).

Now. I wasn't going to deviate from the arms to the sides, because, quite frankly, painting clothing around fingers/hands is suuuper tedious/obnoxious (been there, done that, NOT doing it again x.x). But I can see hundreds of super cute ways to layer skirts / design pants / etc. on the folded legs!

I really love this human art (eerrr... human?, pointy ears, leg fluff, hooves? XD just kidding, I love these all!) - the pose, the arms, I like this mysterious eyes! Can't wait to play dressing up with this lady :) And of course am eager to see the male art too!

Great job, Tobyana!

We've decided to call them Fae Avatars! Since they really aren't entirely human! ^.^

Nice. XD Also, will we be only allowed one avatar, or are we allowed one female and one male? :3 (wants a male too since she loves her eye-candy. XD)
