The gloves are almost too classy, and the shock of red on your top is pretty bold I thinks. And then there's the gun. <3

not too genre bending after all you could be aiming for arcane-tech steampunk or NeoVictorian instead of classic steampunk. I actually like the sterile feel it invokes... almost like going to a goth club and seeing that one person in nothing but white while everyone else is in standard issue costuming.

Arcane-tech was actually exactly what I was going for. > w< Awesome that it was seen right away.

I have to say I love your outfit. o wo The puffy-shouldered bolero is used well, but for all the finery, the knife is what makes it. I want to say I'm reminded of the legends of assassins who masqueraded as courtesans in an attempt to be invited into their target's bedrooms, but I'm not sure if that comes off as offensive and I really hope it doesn't.

You look like a beautiful gypsy who is in love with the sky and machinery, and the smile gives me the impression that she isn't scared of showing her affection for freedom. Thumbs up.

Oh Dear, you look rather unhappy...I'd have to say even hostile and about to commit a crime of passion with your revolver, Keith.

Not off the mark at all..I prefer western culture but my tabletop group out voted me for Legend of the 5 Rings. I play a Scorpion courtesan.

I think it's quite lovely! I love how you've created the face.

What's interesting about this avatar is that it seems to tell a story. Unfortunately I'm not crystal clear on what that is, but I'm kind of frightened and I think I'm supposed to be.

From an aesthetic standpoint, I don't love this. There are so many different colors that don't work particularly well together competing for attention. That combines with the fact that there are so many elements and layers to it and it's a little dizzying.

I think the axe is the most interesting single piece and it might be better to tone down the rest of this in such a way that is stands out better, because right now it's lost in the clothes. The colorblock vest, which may be my least favorite item on this avatar, is drawing the most attention, which is really unfortunate.

You've done quite a nice job on this one. Your colors work together fabulously. Definitely a woman of action, but still a refined lady. smile

I love the military look, and the fact that it's all monochrome, sans the blood red flag waving behind you.

It's very classy which is an element often overlooked in steampunk. The blues prove that different shades of brown aren't the main ingrediant for the genre. Well done indeed.

Your avatar screams "I shot the sheriff...but he kept eating the deputy."

I like this look. It's kind of "steam fairy," which is a pleasant notion. And what better setting for a whimsical creature than a comfortable study?

I like how yer avatar gives me a vibe of "gotta watch the stars, but gotta watch the time!" I like the subtle, pastel colors, plus the dog fits with the color scheme.
