Ever wonder why you look so much like the milk man?


Diino: 5,5,9,3,8.5=35
i completely agree with the others.

Lin: 5, 5, 8, 2, 8 = 28/50
Your description makes me lol, but this isn't very stunning avatar-wise. I know it's a theme round, but I always believe that you shouldn't go to any extreme, I.E., making something like this is which is totally theme with no layering, etc., OR making something completely AT fabulous but with no theme whatsoever. It really hurt to give that 2, but there is literally NO layering on this, or anything that makes it look like it took longer than 5 minutes to make. Sorry. :/ Plus, distracting green eyes are distracting.

Autio: 5.6.7.3.8 = 29
This is so you but i wish there was more to it. Amusing take on the theme, though.

Dee: 4. 6. 6. 2. 8 = 26
Agreeing with Lin and Autio, that there's not really much to it. This tektek definitely needs more layering. I think this could actually be a good start to a tektek with the same theme you're going for. If you just added a bit more layering and detail, it could have looked a lot better. Just layering different white socks of different lengths could have added to your score. Socks such as the radicool fluff socks would have been closer to the white of your shirt and hat.

She's a girl who has never had nice things before in her life, because she's sorta always been a hobo, and then, she finds a jackpot - the house of a woman who goes through clothes and accessories like people go through kleenexes. There were bags of old jewelry and clothes outside, in the dumpster.. and the girl was so overjoyed that she pulled on quite a few of items of her favorite color, blue, and cried.

Lin: 8, 8.5, 7, 7.5, 10 = 41/50
I love it, it makes me smile so much. Your description is really cute, but this is a case where I would have gotten what you were going for even without the description, and that's a really fantastic feat. I like your use of brown; how you've managed to use so many shades but still make it look cohesive and mostly hide any matching mistakes that there might be. Speaking of, the blues are off in places, but since there's so little blue it's not that huge of a deal. LOVE the brown/blue combo, BTW!

Autio: 9.8.8.7.9 = 41
This is adorable, great interpretation of the theme, and the blue was an inspired touch. c:

Dee: 9. 8. 8. 9. 9 = 43
The layering fascinates me. (: The colors are nicely distributed throughout the tektek, and the blues add a nice little touch. Great job with the matching.

Nice, I like the interesting twist on a fireman. The color scheme and gas mask keep the theme going, but I like that you went for making something creative and atypical (for a fireman.) Love the dark skin on here too. You’ve got some matching issues with the yellow, and the big round white light on the hat sticks out, but overall this is a nicely made avatar. C:
diino: 7.7.7.7.8=36

Autio: 7.7.7.6.7 = 34
It almost looks tribal. Interesting interpretation of the theme, but I'm not sure about the head.

Dee: 9. 9. 7. 8. 9 = 42
This is nice. I like how he's like an awesome, fierce fireman. I think that different yellow gloves could have worked better. It stands out from the other yellows. The layering on the arms is nice.

Here's my final Magician.

Brennivin's Auntie Elísabet is a very magnificent woman, in the prime of her magic. She likes to look very grandiose and dramatic, to let people know just how powerful and rich she is.

Come on everybody

I dont see a magician in the slightest i think of royalty from looking at this avatar.
Lin: 6.5, 7.5, 9, 7, 8 = 38
Very pretty, as I would expect from you. C; Matching is really good and theme is pretty solid as well. The only real problem I have with this is that the items used are kind of expected, you know what I mean? Like, I’ve seen almost all of those items used, sometimes together, for regal/grandiose characters. Also, I think you should have gone with different black gloves that have no small detail. But still, it’s very nice.

Autio: 7.7.8.7.6 = 35
This makes me think more queen/princess than magician, to be honest. The bottom is very black-heavy, and the arms are bothering me. Gorgeous color combination, though.

Lin: 8, 9, 8.5, 8.5, 8 = 42/50
I love! It's very original, but still comes across as a cop/policewoman. The color scheme really helped that. I'm not completely sure why you've got the little Gogh Reed skeleton guy on her head, but it does blend well with the other items. The blue skirt is a little off, but it's so slight that it really doesn't matter that much. Also, I can't for the life of me figure out why I'm not at all bothered by there only being red in the eyes, but I'm not. I guess you're just that good, lol.
diino: 8.9.9.8.9=43

Autio: 9.10.9.8.9 = 45
This is absolutely great. It shows the theme without beating you over the head with it, and the layering is so delicate. c:

Riyo Ongaku

Lin: 5, 6, 7.5, 5, 7.5 = 31/50
Oh, not your best work, Riyo! D': I know you're capable of more. This is decent, but it's lacking in both technical aspects and theme. Layering is very minimal, and why didn't you integrate the orange from the collar thing into the rest of the avatar? I'm also not totally convinced that she's a scientist; I mean, you've hinted at a labcoat and some sort of experiment in her hand, but that's pretty much it. You really could take this a lot further.
Autio: 6.7.7.5.7 = 32
Horns? Wingy-ankles? Wut? I kind of wish you'd have stuck to either strictly realistic or strictly fantastic. It almost works themewise, but I agree with Lin, it's definitely not up to your usual standards.
diino: 5,6,7.5,5,7.5=31

Dee: 5. 6. 8. 6. 6 = 31
I honestly don't like this too much. The layering is okay, and you matched nicely. I think if you added just a bit more, it would have looked a lot better. Maybe more layering on the arms, or something to make it more complex. And the theme, I get it, but I think you could have done more to show that she's a scientist.

Just a little explanation so the judges know what's happening:

She is a maid on strike. The face and soot is like, she cleaned out a furnace, but it exploded on her. The smoke i thought for like, cleaning aspect. layered, tried to get whites to match, but no dice.

-For judges eyes only- Also, i have the kottan bell corset (without the bra part) layered under the beads and the suit thing. Click the avatar and then you'll see the full effect.


Lin: 8, 7.5, 8, 7, 9 = 39.5/50
Haha, as I told you before, that face = epic win. I also like the rest of the avatar, including the cute description. I love that there's a story behind this. You actually did a fairly good job of matching the whites; it's only the feather and shoes that are noticeably a little off. This is another one where the random bit of pinkish color on the face doesn't bother me. You know, I guess it's the fact that both in this and Chien's, the random color looked so intentional, instead of something that you tried to incorporate but couldn't. In any case, I like it. C:
diino: 5.5,5.5,6,4.5,6=27.5

I have a far different opinion from the others, the center is so blocky with black with some good layering you could have evened that out with a clean white trim like i imagine a maid might have. The only aspect of this i see a clumsy maid in is the face and the background. the avatar itself isint doing much for you.
Autio: 8.8.8.6.9 = 39
This shows a great improvement in your efforts! Your story made me laugh, it's adorable. The shoes and the g-lol skirt are the only things that really bother me.

Dee: 8. 8. 7. 8. 9 = 40
I like the theme. You worked well with it. The shoes and feather are a bit off of the other whites. If you were to spread out both shades of white a bit more, it would have looked okay. I like how you can see the shape of some kind of maid's outfit. It's nice. (:

I screencaped and saved the image to photobucket then linked to the tektek.

Lin: 8.5, 9.5, 9, 9, 10 = 46/50
Don't you hate it when tektek fails? D: Well, anyway, this is gorgeous, like always. I just love the color scheme, and the layering of those helmets = brilliant. It's spot on for theme, there's no doubt what his/her job is. The only thing I could complain about is that the big feathery poof at the top of the head sticks out because it's pretty much an unbroken area of dark gray/black.

Autio: 9.9.8.10.10 = 46
This is absolutely fantastic. Love the color scheme & use of theme. Greens look a little bit off to me.

Dee: 9. 9. 9. 9. 10 = 46
I love it. (: The layering on the torso is awesomee. The matching is pretty nice, especially in the yellow/gold. Overall, this tektek is awesome. Great job.

[Autio re-saved it so she could see it while judging. c:]


NOTE: Lin's editing her score since she can now see the full avatar. C:

Lin: 8, 8, 7, 6.5, 9 = 38.5/50
Love the ice creamy color scheme. I do wish the greens were matched better, and that there was more green at the feet. Also, I wish that the lighter brown color from the tray and the waistband thing were incorporated into the rest of the avatar. But I just love the face, and you've done a great job with theme. C:

Autio: 9.10.8.8.9 = 44
This is absolutely adorable, the outfit itself even looks edible. xD One of my favorites this round. c:

The greens and pinks are a bit off. I think you could have done a better job at spreading out the colors. The layering on the legs is nice. I especially love the layering on the socks. It's a cute theme. You did well getting a theme across.
