It's a sweet-looking Avatar, by the way!
Uhm, well. . . My Avatar used to reflect my OC; He used to carry a gun with a rosary wrapped around the handle. Now he's just a slight bit of a reflection of myself. I'm a musician, and so I wanted him to have a (what I think looks like a) B.C. Rich guitar! And so for a while I had him sport this Rockstar look until I started getting a bit more formal / elegant. I went on to this J Rock kind of look (with frills, and what not), so I've kept with this formal look but still keeping the "Rocker" theme. Formal, but edgy.
Last night I was on TekTek trying to come up with a good Valentine's day Avatar, and trying to get some reds, and whites, and what not- trying to keep the Rocker Theme until my ADD kicked in and I started reading one of my Web Comics (Teahouse, to be exact- a comic that my beloved got me into!) and then. . . Next thing I know, I'm on TekTek making this Avatar with a twist of edginess and elegance- like the kind of elegance I've seen in Teahouse from the nobles, or from some of the residence living in the brothel.
So. . . In short, I do try to stick with the Rockstar Theme. I keep it close, but I want to mix that theme with a dozen other themes. Sometimes it works out, other times it doesn't. I'm still evolving! I know I'll get better!
