You did a fantastic job. Thank you!

I'm glad that you are pleased with it.

Now see, it did'nt take long at all.

Actually yours is the second avatar that I had colorized. My first one, I learned some tricks to do it faster and better.

If you ever see member The_Truth_Seeker's avatar, that was my first colorized avatar. Which also turned out well by all accounts.

Also an angel, coincidentally.

I'll keep an eye out for her.

You're talented! I love your work. That's why I asked you to do this.
Thank you again *hugs*

it's this one...

Actually not so much talented as sometimes I get an idea and am lucky enough to make something out of it. You should see some of my experimental pictures that did not make the grade, or pass muster.

Truly, there are many that are not so great. You should see some of my earliest work. *runs and hides*

But thanks for the compliments.

I have learned a lot since I started making avatars for other members. That is one of the reasons I don't mind special requests. I learn a lot in the process of trying out new things.

You know, I saw that very one and started to pick her but really wanted a blonde. It's very good! I like what you do with color.

I absolutely love your M&M guys, btw!!!!!!!

Combined one of my favorite avs with one of my favorite movies...

I always liked silhouette images.

I really like these. I like the white on black best I think. Very classy.

The angels are exquisite! Again, love the colors.

Like the silhouettes too.

Very nice, Mechanic.

Thanks. Those are the original colors. Not my work this time. I got the idea to post more angels from our discussion yesterday. Angels are a popular avatar.

Like the silhouettes too.

Very nice, Mechanic.

Thank you. I always liked the simplicity of silhouette images. Such a small thing can speak volumes.

Another pair of silhouettes, based on the Boilermaker statue.



added perspective shadowing to this one...

Sure can. What are your interests? You gotta help me out a little bit here. I don't want to make you an avatar that goes against your beliefs, etc.

Optionally, most of the avatars on page 11 are up for grabs. If you see one that you like, I can customize it with your name, and change the background color.

Let me know what you think, so I can start workin' on it!


Ah, I think I have one....

Stay tuned!

I thought you might want shiki shiki facing the other way, so I did it in both directions.
