Hello all! I posted this elsewhere, but I thought my home, Avatar Talk, would be a good place to share as well! After all we are here to talk about our avatars, right? So here is the history of my avatar - in art! Please share yours as well!
Well my first foray into requesting art was when I first felt happy about my avatar, so I decided to celebrate and get a nice modest one done - by Linaire!
We chatted and had a great time in her thread, she even put me in her Bump sign - see if you can spot me!
Well after this pic, I was poor, so I had just enough for a cutesy chibi by Peiji!
Uh oh it's time to get off Gaia lol! Well, not before I commissioned my first color art - yep just blue, again, I didn't have much gold back then. I wanted something to show Princess Nausicaa's loss when Teto dies in the manga...
I decided to go a bit experimental and the next two were reflections of that direction...
And even went into Cosplay a little - yep that is the REAL Princess Nausicaa!
But then I spotted someone who did work that was in an Anime style that was clean and beautiful, I just had to give my precious January Letter for it!
As it turned out, that was one of the last ones Jisuk ever did, so I feel fortunate. Just as I feel fortunate that I hit a triple jackpot of rares that week and grabbed a precious one of StupidLookingCactus' work!
I loved this one so much I had Sidecar color it!
Leyna was kind enough to do this one out of the kindness of her heart - I have a fondness for this one because of that!
Around this time I started getting REALLY into AT - OneCrazySusie even made me a cupcake in my avvy's colors!
Ah the Viking look was being developed around this time too, so Sourpunch captured that moment -
Lookit the Dark Cape lol! Well by this time for some reason I was rolling in cash, so I actually bought and won auctions for back to back 10k artwork from two great artists - I asked both to try to capture Princess Nausicaa the best they could and this is what both came up with-
WOW! Well after this I really wanted to do right by my viking look too, so I squeezed out the rest of my back account and got this great illustration done -
This was the beginning of me riding bankruptcy for the rest of my Gaian life to this day. I was addicted! I started scrounging the art forum for auctions and deals and came up with these bargain gems -
It was about here that I discovered the random image generator, so I wanted some art that was just for signature use - and commissioned some great ones imho!
Oh and one of me when my poor Forehead Jewel Glitch no longer appeared -
I really loved talking about art with artists, and chatting with folks on AT, and as a result these gifts popped up for me to share with you -
Now there was one that was in the works for THREE months, and this RL artist really did a great job sketching sketching painting painting and this was her result of how Princess Nausicaa would look as a real person -
By this time I was sort of getting a reputation as a "Art Whore" so artists started coming to me with prototypes of their works to ask if they would fly - I think this one would be successful, don't you?
Here's a cute one that the 10K artist did much later in remembrance of our good times - she did the Pilot Nausicaa before, so this time she wanted to do a Viking chibi!
Here's a few examples of developmental sketches with the final product - i love this kind of thing!
But during this time I'm still poor inbetween big art, so to satisfy my cravings folks on AT and the art forum were nice enough to feed the beast -
Some of the last few I had done before I ran out of time on Gaia to really earn alot of gold are below - I saw the writing on the wall and tried to get the best I could with the gold I had-
And that's the end of my journey! Here's my last, commissioned right here on the AT Guild Forum!
Which reminds me of 
UPDATE! Lately I've been getting the bug again so here's the three latest!
