Typical Amarrian face. You look like an arrogant, humorless, cruel and stubborn fundamentalist. What's not to like about that? I give it 9/10. |

@ paragon renegade: I absolutely love the "implied facepalm look", 10/10
@Arguile Thellere: Too much light, face looks unnatural. try with less light or a different light source. Maybe then your hair would also look a little more natural, otherwise that would have to be adressesd seperately ( looks like the guy from lazy town right now). On the plus side, I like the smile. 6/10 with a possible 9/10 if you fix the light problem. -.- |

@ Arguile: Whoo, you changed your avatar portrait after my criticism. Much better now, I like the new background, too. Still, the colour of your hair doesn't match... maybe dark brown or something blueish? still, 9/10
@ Root Kit. Creepy. Looks like you have been treated with botox. That smile simply doesn't look natural at all. But I think that could be the concept of your picture, no? Whatever, 9/10 for sheer creepyness.
@Dr. Karsun: Yeah, the picture tells:"This guy drinks coffee, and he drinks a lot of it " Old dude is old, but it is a nice contrast to all the twentysomethings you usually get to see. There is one single thing I do not like, and that's your synthetic left eye. Does not fit the character at all. But still a rock solid 9,5/10 -.- |

Wow...this is the one- in a million character that always makes me stop scrolling.
Awesome- I have to admit I saved your portrait for my portrait folder.
Then I printed it out several times. I made wall hangings in all sizes out of it and used them to decorate my entire room. Yes, I really love the look.
To be honest, I even cut out the faces from those prints and glued them to the faces of several old porcellain dolls that I have been collecting for quite a while. I could sit there for hours, looking at their new faces while I run my fingers through their soft hair and smile all day long. Sometimes I admit I even play weird games with them.
I do not think this is deviant or kinky, it is an extremely beautiful character protrait, after all.
Last week I was arrested by the police because I have been giving away pictures of your avatar to toddlers at the local elementary school. I tried to explain, but they just don't understand.....
Nobody understands...
tl;dr: solid picture, 8,5/10 -.- |

Terrible name, but cool portrait.
5 points base +1 for sticking with a main colour scheme +1 for good use of lights/shadows +1 for the smirk that distinguishes you from the generic "badass" portrait +1 for the scar- not too prominent but fits the chracter +1 because ...uhm... yeah...because of not using stupid tatoos
10/10 points! Congratulations! A Winrar is you! -.- |

@Rico: nice, grim face. the camera is a bit too close and the lightning too bright, so the photorealism is gone. Also, I find that Gallente background overused. The facial expression is cool, though- just zoom out a little and maybe change the light and it will be perfect.

@ Nova Kierra: Very good colour scheme, that red/black pattern totally got me. The diamond piercings do not fit into it, though- either take rubies (don't know if there are ruby piercings) or let go of them completely- those spots of light blue totally mess up with the concept. Same goes for the background- not as disruptive as the piercings, but maybe the monochrome dark red or the red/dark nebula background would be better...overall still 8,5/10. -.- |

So, only 2 days left for you, Ish? How sad....
Ok, since it is one of your last days here, you will get the special treatment- I will not rate your avatar, I will rate YOU.
Si, exactamente, senor. So just look deep into Zimmie's eyes and let her look into your soul.....
Well...here we go. It is odd, that you redesigned your avatar once again shortly before leaving eve, and at the same time announce the fact that you are leaving in your sig. Not sure what to make of it. This does not seem logical for a person who spent years with a MMO game and its community. Looks like you are not quite sure yet- well you ARE sure that you are going to leave- but not quite sure for how long that will be, right? Maybe it is because you have a need for other people to notice, like and admire you? And yet you tend to be critical of yourself. While you have some personality weaknesses you are generally able to compensate for them. You have considerable unused capacity that you have not turned to your advantage. You do not have many friends, not because you are a loner, but because superficial smalltalk bores you and you rather have a few very close friends than many meaningless acquaintances. Disciplined and self-controlled on the outside, you tend to be worrisome and insecure on the inside. At times you have serious doubts as to whether you have made the right decision or done the right thing. You prefer a certain amount of change and variety and become dissatisfied when hemmed in by restrictions and limitations. You also pride yourself as an independent thinker; and do not accept othersGÇÖ statements without satisfactory proof. But you have found it unwise to be too frank in revealing yourself to others. You are not an aggressive person, but you are very protective of the ones you care about and will even fight to keep them out of harms way.
Overall as a person I will give you a 8/10 and hope you will be back again soon (well, I know you will).
(P.S. No need to rate Zimmy, OMG, so dark, so ebil...yeah, I got it, just move on, nothing to see here) -.- |

I approve the look and feel of it. I'm not sure on something though, the lighting perhaps? Good overall though, 7/10.
I just recently redid my former black/white pattern and carefully added some colour, to make the portrait look less gloomy and threatening. I hope that it now reflects better the coward and inept carebear ***** that I really am and people will be more motivated again to help me out of my ship when i am running through lowsec.
Your rating: love the smirk, love the use of shadows and lightning. There is too much blue and grey in your picture, so it does not really stand out amongst most other blue/grey pictures. But that's just personal taste. Overall 8/10 -.- |

@ Mr. Vest:
Actually, Your portrait is much better at second look and once you enlarge it. Even the chav haricut fits in very well with the character; the scar and eye implant fit perfectly together. I think the most disruptive thing is the overused "generic gallente" background. Try some other background, monochrome dark red would be very nice, maybe toy around with the lightsources to get some more shadows and contrast. Zooming one step closer to the face would also be a nice idea. Overall a solid 8/10. -.- |

This one? I liked it a lot too, but the new lighting made it impossible to recreate (specifically the goggle reflection). Hence total change. #
yep, that's the one...that one would get the 10/10.
Had similar issues with Zimmy and was not able to recreate the old look- it seems to be a bad idea to work on your avatar if you are at least halfways satisfied with its look. -.- |

@ Axium Cog:
I like how the stripes on your jacket match the background. But the colours of your hair (brown) and shirt (scarlet) don't really fit in very well with the burgundy/black/white pattern. I would suggest to make them either black or white- fewer different colours make the avatars more recognizable and rounded. 6/10
@ Akirei Skytale: Yes, you did it, a complete pre-crucible rollback! Don't let the plebs in here make you doubt- old "bugfaced" Akirei is best Akirei! 10/10 -.- |

I can't decide. Looks a little dark (obviously intentional) so hard to see. Which in general I don't like... BUT, if you were going for a look of 'seen an atrocity so horrifying that can not close eyes without seeing it' kind of terrified look, then it's perfect. the light bouncing of the shadowed eye looks like it's glossing over.
So, if that look is intentional, then 10/10 and I think that character needs a hug.
If not, good features, but bad lighting 7/10
Looks like your character is currently looking at Leni Riefenstahl who is about to take his picture. You did a good job with that "Amarrian Masterrace" flair- I especially like the unusual angle you have chosen to make him look superior and arrogant. Only the colours seem a little boring, especially the eyes could need some improvement- piercing bright blue eyes would make him perfect. 9/10 overall. -.- |

@ cloned soul: right, this thread has gotten slightly out of hand. Experimenting with the character editor and showing your results is all fine, but there is a markable decline of new and original ideas in this thread (kudos to generals4 btw, interesting new concept) and everything degraded more or less into a "rate my boobs"-circlejerk.
@corinna jarr: personally, I think this is the scariest avatar around and she always creeps me out. It's about the eyes that don't look at the camera but slightly besides it. Combined with the lack of expression on the face and the pale skin, it always reminds me of victorian death photographs.... -.- |

@ shogun archer: OK, I did a short google search and noticed that I already know some of his work, but I have to admit that I didn't know his name. As a long-time /x/ denizen I have seen pictures like these posted regularly. But in all honesty, they are a little too "artistic" for my taste, if you wanna creep people out less is always more; I like those deeply disturbing ancient b/w pictures where you don't have the slightest idea what's going on but somehow feel nauseated, stuff like this (open at own risk): http://i.imgur.com/K3W6u.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Sdn7Z.jpg
@Akirei Scytale: why, thank you very much kind sir. Slightly wondering why you are changing your avatar so often, it has always been a good one (ok, that stuff with the white shirt and J-Pop emo haircut was a little off, but all other versions have been really nice).
@ Serena Serene: Good picture, I can see that you put some effort into it. But it doesn't work for me. Too few shadows, skin too smooth and the eyes don't look realistic at all. Then the glossy lips that look almost photorealistic. If you want to go for the comicbook-look, you should remove the gloss effects from the lips and maybe beef up the contrasts a little more. If you want to go for the realistic look, do something about the eyes and maybe change the lightning.
I wonder if it is even possible to derail a thread that is already 280 pages long... Sounds like a challenge to me, so feel free to post creepy black and white pictures! -.- |

Then you'd be a 10/10 any day of the week. Father? Is that you? 9/10 I like the hair, doesn't look fake to me at all.
Oh wow...you listened to my advice and changed the background. Awesomesauce. But I fear we are not quite there, yet. You chose the "Red nebula that incidentally looks like the fires of hell" background. Solid choice. Now he looks like a man who enjoys the smell of napalm in the morning as it burns freedom deep into the flesh of all those who don't surf. (I like this sentence, you might want to read it twice). The problem I currently see is with that cloudy thing in the background that is pointing towards your nose. It looks like a big lava bogey coming out of your nostrils..
Two possible solutions:
1. Zoom your avatar one or two clicks closer. Also change the lightning effects...the fire is behind you, so the light should come from behind you as well.
2. Turn his head to the right, open his mouth. Now it will look as if he is spitting fire ,like TROGDOR, burninating the countryside!

Rating all the girls on this page:
Altrue: I think you slightly changed your avatar, no? I like how she is facing away from the camera but the eye is still piercing the beholder. Feels somewhat unnerving, and is somewhat similar to the look I went for with Zimmy (only she is looking from below, not sideways). 10/10
Comey: I think the smile is much better now, at least it doesn't look as ghoulish as it used to. The mouth and lips are pretty good already, to make it a real smile, you should work on your eyes and eyebrows- slightly lift the inner parts of both eyebrows and the smile should come much more naturally. 8/10
Eurydia: Wow. She looks hot now. Is it just the new hair or did you give her a complete makeover? The eyes are awesome, never ever change them. 10/10 ...meh Gäó |

Zimmy Zeta: You did a great job with the creepy look & smile, also the finer details like the tattoo are great, so awarding you a 9/10. Really like your avatar, I assume it's inspired on your namesake from Gunnerkrieg?
Kind of...
I was drunk and friend shanghai'd me into EvE online (first character). He chose the name for me because I couldn't think of one (maybe because I was already comatose at that point). I found out about the webcomic several days later... Apparently this friend thought that whatever I was going to do in eve, it would be fitting the play style he expected of me. He doesn't play Eve anymore, so I am not sure if this character lived up to his expectations...

It's really nice to see some friendly avatar for a change, so tjhat's just 10/10 by definition. ...meh Gäó |

@ Ivy: while I am not a big fan of that white ice-cream-vendor-shirt, it fits your avatar marvelously, I like the pose and especially that glowing blue eye. 3,11 / 3,14159265
@ Jayem: Your avatar made me giggle. 3,0 / 3,14159265
@ Zimmi: Why so gloomy? Zimmies should be outgoing, cheerful, friendly, sunshine, lollipops and unicorns and sh*t.... I like the savage look of your avatar, only the piercings don't fit at all. The forehead jewelry looks too baroque to fit into your style, and the lip piercings should not be symmetrical. Maybe a nose piercing would be more fitting? 2,95279 / 3,14159265
@ Comey: Yeah. The smile is good now, but like Mizhir said, your avatar looks a little too artificial right now. I wouldn't change the avatar at all, but experiment a little with different tinted lights, light angles and shadows to make her look more photo realistic. 3,09 / 3,14159265 ...meh Gäó |

@Ishtanchuk I seriously love the framing, great pose and the lighting's sweet.
Mrs. Schneider used to be one of the best avatars on the forums, but I am afraid your latest changes didn't do her any good.
The lips, especially the lower lip, are too full to look natural, they look as if they were filled with silicone. Add to that the hanging eyelids (not your fault, I know, CCP screwed up your bloodline) and it screams "Botox" at you. With all that, you nailed the Paris Hilton look quite good, and deserve kudos for that. I just don't like it personally and found your former avatars much more likeable.

@Kirjava: Creepy. This guy shows no emotion at all, like a picture of a mannequin or a statue. The skin color also looks kind of lifeless. Reminds of a cold blooded, professional killer. And he has of course the glorious green background of win. Only the position of the head seems a little off- either move the camera somewhat down or zoom several ticks closer to the face. 8/10.

RATE ALL THE AVATARS!
@ Sky Sheriff: Great picture, I like it a lot. Somehow he reminds me of those badasses in 1970's B-movies. The background fits great with your colour scheme, but maybe you should still change it to live up to your characters name and have some sky-ish things in the back? That napalm-like backgound would also catch the spirit of aforementioned B-movies. 10/10
@ Altrue: You didn't change a lot after I last rated you, so you will keep your 9,5/10.. dem freckles are still amazing.
@ Koritougamaw: The hair looks very unnatural, floats in the air and has massive clipping issues. I would read some of Sir Isaac Newton's books and then use that knowledge to rework the portrait. 5/10
@ Sahara Wildcat: Everybody is always so enthusiastic about your pictures. I like your older portrait (linked in your signature) a lot, that lip-biting look and menacing stare was great work. Compared to that, your new portrait just looks kind of soulless and bland. Well done, but nothing that really outstanding any more. 8/10 (10/10 for the old portrait)
@ fukier: Very nice light/shadow effects over your rugged and scarred face. But it is too dark overall, you should increase the overall brightness. I believe that this is a great portrait, so it's a shame that we cannot see more of it. 8/10
@ Sheimi Madaveda: She looks cute, really cute. Almost like a child. In a world where everybody tries hard to look like a serial killer, this one stands out, and I like it a lot. 9/10
@ Indahmawar Fazmarai: The asian face, strict haircut, full frontal angle and military shirt makes her look like a Chinese soldier of the Mao revolutions. I'd totally expect to see a red book in her hands if you zoomed out a tad more. Usually I like the green background, but in this special case you should definitely go with something red in honour of the people's republic. 9/10 Please don't feed me. |

A 10 as always. Actually, the tattoo and the scar across the nose have been there from day 1, those are the features that have never changed. The resculpt might not be very obvious, previously the face was heavily deformed, so this was the only angle where she looked liked a human being. Now, after the resculpt, I am actually free to take pictures from any angle- but I am sticking with the old angle out of nostalgia :)

Also, I had a beautiful graphic glitch yesterday.

Beautiful closeup. Unfortunately, the lips don't match your scars in realism- the lips and the eye look like painted while the scars and beard look rather photorealistic. I don't like those "hybrid" characters personally, I would chose between a realistic look or an over-the-top comic look.

@ Random McNally: I happen to like this portrait a lot, and I don't even know why. It's rather generic without anything really special, yet it somehow has character and soul. Maybe because it is difficult to have bald avatar in EVE who does not automatically look like a douche. I'll give it 9/10...and I wouldn't change it if I were you, unless of course you want to add a monocle
@ Kytayn: The popular Malcanis- background and your avatar looking into the horizon, head held high in pride. He looks like a field marshal or an evil dictator, someone with a vision and enough brutality to turn it into reality. Normally I dislike avatars that do not make eye contact, but it fits good with the overall feeling of your picture, so 8/10

Again, 10/10 for the nostalgia and because I am in a good mood and have a fresh coffee on my desk. Please don't feed me. |

Dafuq?
It doesn't work for Vherokior, but maybe it works for you: 1. Adjust eyes to look up as far as the character creator lets you. 2. bow down the head until the eyes seem to look at the camera 3. A very slight (1 or 2 increments, not more) smile with one corner of the mouth only 4.play around with the shadow/light options. The right combination will create the illusion of a broad grin, although your character's mouth is almost in "neutral" position. Please don't feed me. |

@ Nometh: The face and character design is pretty decent, but the background doesn't fit in my opinion. Your character looks like a shady, violent thug, yet he is standing in front of the "Baywatch" background that usually only works with bleached blond space barbies. As much as I hate to see "yet another gray concrete wall" as the generic background of 90% of the avatars, I think in your case it would fit much better. 7/10 Just think of how bad an average post by me is, and then realize half of them are even worse |

Brace yourselves, ratings are rolling in:
Tronnic Rhodan: Made me smile, I like extreme close ups and unusual angles. The face reminds me a little of Borat, the smile is hilarious. Only the piercings don't fit at all, especially the lip piercing is extremely off.
Indahmawar: Rated you so often already, but it's a new picture now. Still she looks like a doll or an android to me, she is beautiful, but the whole body posture is a little too stiff to look natural. But +10 for Amarrian background.
Aspalis: Are you Alpheia's alt? Very similar concept: Pale, skinny girl in the shadows with glowing blue eyes.. a little reminiscent of Mrs. Beckinsale in "Underworld".
Riot Girl: I stopped at your avatar earlier in GD already. Amazing. I like the extreme close up, the slightly tilted head and assymetrical composition (face is not in the middle of the picture).
miiral: Never change. And never take off your makeup or tattoos . Great picture.
Sahara Wildcat: You should change the lip gloss. The right angle of your mouth is completely matte, then there is a sharp line and it all becomes very glossy. I know, this is the makeup, but it looks like a graphic glitch. Your hair got a tint of blue now, right? NIce new touch.
Sivney: Rather plain, but asymmetrical and a nice facial expression, especially the eyebrows add much to the look.
Akirei: WHERE ARE THE F***ING GOGGLES? But seriously, very good picture, maybe this time you stepped over the line and made it too good. Because it hits deep into the uncanny valley. If you are going for a realistic look, I guess this will inevitably happen- that's why I stay with a more "cartoonish" look.

I felt like changing it up and the goggles only work from 1 angle, and don't permit any sort of expression. Also I don't really get the uncanny valley effect. Images never trigger it for me, but any sort of motion will trigger it really, really fast. Houm... to my eyes (which admitedlly are sort of f'd up) your skin is too matte and color looks wrong, so no uncanny valley.
Maybe I am just a pansy and easily scared by CGI chicks...
Edit: @ Sheimi: Didn't you used to have blue hair? Not a bad avatar at all, but currently the angle is a little annoying, just tying too hard to get the "Quafe" logo on the picture. Come on, man, sometimes you need to let go. Focus on the face again, it's beautiful and deserves more attention.

I just realized that the forum enlarges our avatar pics much more than before- you see every little scar, blain and freckle mercilessly magnified. CCP did this obviously to nerf female avatars. As far as Rain 6640 a.k.a. Commissar Kate is concerned- a beautiful picture, but it somehow doesn't look like you anymore, which makes Zimmy a sad panda. Still 10/10.

The hell did you do to Inda? Normally I would say decent picture, but hey, we both know that you can do much better than this gray in gray thing. Inda used to be one of the best avatars here. The pose is rather boring and it's lacking expression. Come on, what's the matter, you are good with making avatars, aren't you even trying anymore? Give her an eciting colour pattern, either zoom out for a more interesting pose or chose an exotic angle and some more expression if you want to keep it as a closeup.

Awesome portrait, 10/10. I just realized how similar our avatars are in concept- maybe some kind of subconscious influence from your old avatar while I resculpted mine about 6 months ago? They could be sisters, in a Becky and Darleene kind of way..
But let's get a little more in depth with your current portrait- it's one of the best here, so let's compare it with one that might be at least equally good: Your old one: http://eveportraits.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/ariel-dawn-copyright-2012-ccp-games.jpg
Both had that golden lightning that makes her look almost celestial, but I think the lightning in the new one is even a bit better, it its somewhat warmer. The haircut changed obviously. While the current, emo style is more often used and thus a bit less original, it has it's merits by showing more of your face, so I'd say that both haircuts are good. In the old picture the head was slightly tilted forward and to the left, which gave the picture a more natural look. In my opinion this was better than the full frontal shot right now. Eye contact to the camera is maintained in both pictures- that's great and I know what a hard work this can be with pupils twitching between each photo shot in the character creator. Now the major drawback of the new picture: the shadows on the neck and chest look extremely artificial, maybe this is an issue with the NeX dress, but once you see it, it cannot been unseen again.

@ Nikolai Lachance: Looks diabolic, like some cartoon devil. I like the over-the-top expression and the evil grin. Only thing I might change is th lightning- I guess it is a little bit too bright and might profit from slightly darker, more intense colours. Maybe you could try to change the background to something red-ish, but I guess the current one is also very good since it somehow looks like horns /antlers. 9,8/10
@ Anyanka Funk: Very odd and remarkable work here. I didn't know this was even possible with the character generator. That broken neck looks incredibly creepy, the bruised eye sockets and the missing eye fit well into the overall picture. But I think it could be better and you are currently wasting a lot of potential here. The tattoo and piercings only distract from the great character concept, it would look a lot scarier if the face was more generic without all that stuff. Try to make the lips paler with brighter lipstick, maybe with a slight tint of blue. While the cold steel background is perfect, the coulours of the shirt and hair are too warm. Go for something colder and uncomfortable, like a white shirt and maybe light brown or blond hair. Increase the lightning to the max- looking at the picture should hurt as much as getting your neck twisted. 11/10 for the concept, 8/10 for the current portrait.

Pale, green-eyed ginger with lots of freckles. Probably one of the more "natural" looking female avatars, definitely stands out in the crowd. My only issue is with the leather jacket- the reflections just somehow look artificial and don't quite fit with your naturalistic face. I would change the lightning, maybe that'll do the trick, or change for a less shiny jacket (brown would probably be better than black). 8/10

Your picture:
Freckels and brown hair gioves her some kind of natural "girl-next-door" look. I think the probelm is that you have too many colours in your portrait. My golden rule is there should be only one primary and one secondary colour, not more (Neurale had only one). Like in the old comic books, where each character had his own 2-colour scheme. But maybe that's just me. so 7/10, but you should really try to experiment with the colours a little. I'm just going to walk the Earth.

Your picture is sadly an example how CCP wanted to make EVE all dark and gloomy and didn't really intend that our characters would smile. It is so incredibly hard to make an avatar look just nice and friendly here. While your thumbnail looks pretty decent, that smile becomes creepy when you enlarge the picture and reminds me more of a tetanus lockjaw. I suggest to slightly relax your facial muscles to make it look less lethal and more natural. Unless, of course, this is the look you were going for...in that case 10/10, otherwise 8/10.

Just a 9/10 because nobody is perfect
So..let me begin with admitting that I am a terrible person..my mother was an art teacher, my gf works at an art gallery- and if there is one thing I have learned over the years, it is tearing other people's art down and be a general **** about it.
So, now to your porttrait. I like the colours..so many pictures here are mostly black, going for earthen/brown tones is pretty refreshing and gives her a savage and rugged look. The thing that immediately caught my attention was her right blind eye (on the left side when you look at her, duh). It doesn't work at all, in my opinion. there are no scars around the eye socket that would make it believable. And persons with blind eyes or facial scars usually try to hide them- your haircut doesn't reflect that . If you'd chose the K-Pop hairstyle (worn by Shalua for example) to have the hair cover the blind eye, it all would look much more natural. Your current haircut looks too strict for a tough Minmatar girl, like the colours suggest. Also the lip piercing- you should go with something more assymetrical, just in one corner of the mouth. Symmetry is for Amarrian oppressors, not Sebiestor rebels. Overall I still happen to like your picture , so 8/10 despite all my b*tching.

I'll have it back! And I'll use your sugegstions in future attemps
CCP stole our smiles like some evil demon in a fariy tale. I still remembered your old portrait, it was instant 10/10, one of the most unique around and one of the very few avatars who actually managed to put on a non-psychotic smile. Out of my head, Sprite Can is still one of the very few smiling faces here that's left. Maybe we should shoot a monument until CCP gives us the smiles back....

Falken Falcon,
A little too much blue-grey in the picture, it's a bit cold, but I guess this was intended. The vest is a stroke of genius and makes the white shirt work..without the vest it always makes people look like ice cream men. A very strict haircut and the lack of a smile paired with cold eyes make her look pretty menacing. I dislike the camera angle, however, that full frontal shot is just boring and unimaginative. overall I'd say 8/10
edit sniped!!!
Commisar, with both your robotic arms your remind me of Gally from Gunm a.k.a Alita. http://fc07.deviantart.net/images/i/2002/22/e/a/Gally_And_Yugo_Coloured.jpg

@ Uriel:
One of the better pictures, I especially like the pose and the color composition. And you are one of the very few who can actually make this pedometer eyepiece work.
Upon enlarging it, there is only one thing I would suggest to make it even better: Let go of the smile. Your character has a rather threatening pose and intimidating presence, the sweet smile just looks too nice for a badass like him and mellows down the whole impression.
9,5/10
edit: Dang snipers.
@Tilde: I love the white dress and anyone who can make it work. I just think the bloody eyeshadow and black lipstick + lip piercing look a little to goth-wannabe. I guess the picture would profit greatly from a little more subtle makeup choice, but maybe that's just me.
8,5/10 I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

@ Cpt: Contrary to what Miz said I actually like the cybernetic arms (robotic arms + black catsuit remind me of the early Alita mangas, but I think I said that already) and I really liked the red background. The problem with your current portrait is that she has a really cool face (with those glowing eyes and matching hair), but thanks to her massive casongas few people will ever notice that. I would seriously suggest getting a resculpt icon and consecutive breast reduction surgery. Also, not sure about this, but I think the white catsuit would look better on her. 8/10

Your portrait makes me sad and empty inside.
It reminds me of how awesome the new pirate clothes look, maybe the best clothing line ccp has released yet.
And yet, with -9 Guristas standing, wearing something like that would just be wrong with Zimmy. In fact, the only pirate faction that do not unconditionally hate me are Serpentis- but in their constant aspiration to make my life miserable, the Icelandic Hate MachineGäó has made sure that no Serpentis clothes were released.

Hey, you skipped Dominique! My OCD demands to rectify this error:
Dominique Vasilkovsky: Awright now, she used to be one of the most gorgeous characters in all of Eve, but I fear she is currently suffering from a critical case of NES-overload. Really, sometimes less is more. Sometimes you need to let go, Mashie. This poor girl has suffered enough already. One, maybe two special items would be enough for a stunning portrait and avoid visual overload. Come on, you can do better than that, I know it. Still 6/10
Candi LeMew
Since you probably put more time and effort into designing your characters than I put into all of EVE, how could I possibly say anything else but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWuQcd7nSQc ?

Valkin Mordirc:
I can see what you are going at (at least I think so) and the concept is pretty cool actually. Only problem is that this eyepiece is really terrible by design and takes away much from the potential of your picture. I mean, really, if you look at the enlarged image, it looks like being badly photoshopped in by a 10-year old. No real connection to your skin or facial structures at all. I don't blame you, I blame CCP for that one
I would try a little more shadows around the eyepiece, maybe that'll work.
Or stop being poor and get a decent monocle- the choice is yours.
7/10, would probably be 9/10 without the eye-thingy.

Sol Project:
The good:
-I like it when people stick to the general theme of their avatars and keep them recognizable. Even though you have changed quite a lot, it is still Sol. (I really appreciate this, I always found it hard to keep my avatar recognizable)
- You changed the blush and lightnings, so he no longer looks like he was suffering from a serious space-sunburn. +1 for skin cancer awareness.
- I love extreme closeups, especially if the character is supposed to look intimidating.
The bad:
Those forehead spikes don't work. I never really realized this before, but upon closer look, they seem to be not attached to your body at all, but hovering half an inch (= 1,270 cm) before your face. If you really want to keep them, I'd experiment a little more with light and shadows, maybe you will find a combination where they look more realistic. Or let go of them completely- the picture is good enough as it is already, would be a shame to change everything just for a few stupid forehead piercings.
overall 9/10.

Obviously supposed to be the mirror-version of Fal, I must say that I like Fal more. Quarra's smile looks artificial and a little creepy (if you enlarge the image), while Fal looks much more natural. Still marvelous work, 9/10 for cuteness.

This is a difficult one. The picture IS nice...but I have become so used to your old avatar, I feel that ever since the resculp, she simply isn't Mizzy anymore. Which is bad, since being Mizzy is pretty cool, I would guess.
No rating possible because I am biased this time.

I like this one a lot. Very nice use of colors, I like your background's transition from crimson red to black and how your character fits perfectly in. My only problem with your avatar is the mouth. It kind of looks like he is pulling a duckface- and now that I have said it I fear it can never be unseen again. Still, solid 9/10 overall- one of the best portraits.

@ Freya:
Very red. But the colors work quite well with your portrait. I like how you added the scar to the eye socket with the artificial eye, makes the whole thing much more believable. There are several clipping issues with your hair, most notably around the left jawline. I think the piercings around the mouth are a little too much and distract from the otherwise cool character concept, but that's just personal taste. 9/10 overall.
Oh, and the hidden message in my own portrait is how the scar and the hair form a triangle around the left eye..

Dat chin.
Didn't know it was even possible to create such chins with the character creator.
Holy crap.
It would make Bruce Campbell jealous.
It looks like it has a doomsday device of its own...no wait! the chin IS your doomsday device, your own, personal DD!
CCP could probably charge you 1 plex extra for undocking with that chin...and if I were you, I'd gladly pay it.
Don't know what else to say about your avatar, every time I try to look at the rest, my view just centers back on that chin.

Great how lightning and background fit the overall Sansha theme, and the goggles add a specific "mad scientist" touch that's very befitting for a true Sansha loyalist. One thing I would recommend, though: get those cybernetic augmentations or whatever they were called, the things where pieces of metal and wire stuck on your face, since Sansha are all about crazy cybernetic stuff.

Zimmy, love your avatar. But I'm not sold on the red with that mellow lighting, and your gaze is going the entirely wrong direction. It'd be so much better were you looking up. 7/10
Sorry, looking up impossible. This is literally the only pose where the small spot of light centers on the left eye and makes it pierce out of the shadows.. this is the effect I was going for and the basic idea of the entire picture.
I was unsubscribed for over a year, only read about the casino wars...so was this background reserved for the CFC during that time? Because the colours look pretty much Sansha to me.
To your avatar:
This one is hard for me, since I really liked your previous portrait. I just don't like space armour..it makes no sense lore wise. Our capsuleers would never get into physical combat, and in their pods they're naked. Outside the pods, I'd imagine them to have a very odd taste in clothing and fashion, since they've been connected to machines so long they don't even consider themselves human anymore. Those comfortable, long floating Amarrian robes is what most of them would probably wear in the instances where they absolutely have to leave their pods..but nothing overly sexy or nothing martial like body armour. The scar is a nice touch though, I like how it's mostly hidden in the shadows and only visible at a closer look. 7/10 (old portrait was 10/10)
