Description So...this is how I roll! Or...this is how I would roll, were I to be pixelly and stuff. Decided I needed a slightly more spooky avatar, what with my fav holiday just around the corner. And this is what I came up with!

I decided I wanted to practice pixelling hair not long after I made the stamp for *Mirz123 . I gave her emote hair, and while it wasn't easy, it was interesting. I redid the hair on that many times before realizing I needed to settling on something a lot less complicated than what I was going for. But it got me thinking about maybe doing a tiny pixel version of me. I had just gotten my hair dyed all sort of interesting colors and thought it would be fun to put that in tiny squares.

I was wrong. Very, very wrong.

This is the fourth or seventh attempt at my pixelled hair....roughtly. I lost count after so much tweaking. This morning, though, I sat down and decided I was over thinking it. So, I started again...and voila! I know it is probably not amazing or anything...but it kinda looks like hair to me and that is what I was finally ready to settle with. YAY ME!

For details....Death, Gor, and Carl are all with me, as well as what I feel is a mandatory pumpkin. There are creepy spiderwebs dangling around me via my initials. And I gave myself some tiny fangs. Just because really.

Comments and tips are appreciated, although I can't promise I will fix anything. But I will keep it in mind for future reference.

Due to the Letters and my OCs, no one else should really use this. It's ALL MINE!


Eep! Almost forgot! The maker of the base!

Oh, and BTW, if that is the color of your hair now, I totally have to ROFL. I did mine recently and it ended up way darker and browner than it's been in years. Too funny.

I told my stylist I just wanted a nice deep brown...and it is almost black! Probably because of the blonde it was going on. The red though... It is so RED! It doesn't even look natural and I heart it sooo much!

Ooh, I love the brassy red! LOL! I used to have my hair that color when I was in my 20s. This guy I worked with used to call me "punk rock girl" because of it!

I think I got that deep brown you were going for.

My 20s are drawing to a close, that is probably why I am embracing it now while I still can.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I was kinda feeling that way about my 30s.

YAY! I'm so proud of you! No joke, pixelling dolls and hair can be very hard...and intimidating. This is awesome. So awesome that when I saw it, I thought you had used a generator or something, because it looked so good!

*squee* I really am psyched for you. So few emoticonists work with pixel hair, so it will be nice to have a few more out there.

(P.S. I love Death's scary pose!)

Thank you! I have always wished I could dabble in the world of dolling, but the few times I have tried, it has been total fail. I was afraid this would end up the same way, but I was really tired of failing. So, I scanned tons of hair tutorials and finally went for it. I am so glad you think it looks good! I am so very proud of how well this turned out!

It is my new fav pose for her!

I love it to death. I think it looks great, and I can see why it's your fave pose. That's kinda like when I did my current avatar. The same thing...my first real dabble into dolling. I was so psyched. LOL!
