Hey, no sweat!
Don't stretch, RL always comes first, especially with education and stuff.
Thanks. ^^ Do you mind if I make his eyebrows normal, instead of very long?

You need to be a little more specific about
what you want.
An avatar? A signature? Animated or not?
If it should have a character in it, I'll need an armoury link and, if necessary, a wish-list of the desired equipment.
I need you to tell me what it should be like and then we will see if you may have one!

You are the artist so you decide on what it will look like. I just lean back and wait in anticipation.

Hm... I would prefer an animated one. Preferably of my toon walking with her pet Aznable aka Arcturis (the spirit bear) and with her clockwork rocket bot out too if you could? @_@
Heres my armory link:

OK, first of all, the actual Arcturis-model is transparent.
As I have explained somewhere before, with transparent stuff like this spirit bear, glowing effect and stuff alike, it will always look strange, as the background will be coming through. Also, there is some smoke or steam emerging from him in the walking animation, which also is transparent and makes it look even weirder.
I will try and use a little trick but I'm not sure you'll like the look of it. But if anyone can do better than what I did, feel free to post it here.
Here is what Arcturis looks like on black background, which was the best looking backgroundcolor I could find. Absolutely unacceptable.

So, here we go...
What I did is, I took an ordinary brown bear and recolored him to a glowing light blue.
I know, it's not Arcturis, but what can I do? This is the best idea I could come up with and I so hope you still like it.

Hi
I'm wondering if you could make me an animated avatar of my Hunter and a few of her pets.
Here is the armory link
Her pets
Kreature
Shenzi
Gizabite
I'd like Han without her helmet on. and if you could make them all walking but have Kre on one side Shenzi on the other and Gizabite's legs behind her (if you get what i mean)
Thanks in advance

As avatars are limited to 100 x 100 pixel and a file size < 40KB, this will probably not work and, if squeezed in a pic that tiny, look rather silly.
I can do an avatar like mine with your hunter or I can do a signature. Maybe I could do both.
But this request as it is... No way, I'm sorry.

I did think it would be a bit big lol. Ok how about just my Hunter and Kreature as both a sig and av similar to yours?. Any poses you think look good (i have looked on modelviewer and the ravanger's animations arent the best eg. It can't sit lol)

I'll take a look at it tomorrow, I promise. For now *yawn* it's 1:40 in the night here in germany and I'm not fit enough to concentrate right now... I'll be in the forum for a while but work will be done after I got some sleep.

Next problem coming right up...
I need to alter your shoulder pads, as those you are wearing are emitting some kind of blueish smoke. Since smoke is semi-transparent, it will look very odd or I'll have to place the tauren girl in fron of some background. would you be content with a still image for an avatar? to squeeze my animation into under 40KB, I had to cut it down to 8 colors which looks just terrible with you toon. Yeah, I tried it!

The problem of the smoking shoulders can't be solved that easily with the sig, because sigs with a background look kind of odd, in my opinion.
Would you let me change them?

That is the best I can do on an animated avatar within forum restrictions. It's almost like greyscale, just like mine, been cut down to 8 colors. More colo would mean no animation, I'm afraid.

Hint: Use scale option under Model Control. It screws up eyeglows and smoke and such, you get more if you increase the scale, less if you decrease it. Decrease it to the lowest possible and the smoke will be a thin line you can easil Photoshop out.
