Had some potential but..
First, some major issues:
The A hair isn't even attached to the proper spot.
The prim bits are only set up for one set of colors. While yes, this is mod, it seems odd that they'd include several different colored skins yet only one set of bones/ridges/tendrills that are textured. On the bright side, they DID include the textures for these to match the other stuff as well. But not sure why they didn't also just texture everything instead of making a buyer do it? Also, it seems like they are missing one of the shoulder ridges. Not sure if it is or not. Just seems a bit odd that its the only place thats asymmetric.
The B hair, the flexi one shown in the picture, looks pretty bad.
The "Skin" is all on the tattoo layer for some reason. Not the tattoo layer that skins are normally on. I mean the new tattoo layer that was specifically made to be layered OVER skins. This wouldn't be a problem, but its a complete skin. There isn't any alpha anywhere on it that lets your skin show from under it. Which is a bit of a wasted opportunity.
The skin itself feels very low quality. With the textures being extremely blurry and the face looking pretty bad. There are also some pretty bad seams. Most notably where the torso and leg textures meet.
In the end I wouldn't recommend buying this. Especially not for the 1,099 price tag.
Not pleased.
I can see the potential for this avatar, I really can. And I'd like to say it would be executable, but you *maker* are going to have to put a lot more work into this for it to be worth 1,099L. Even with the ability to mod and change colors, the hair tendrils are sloppy and look bad. The shape is pretty awful, and while I admire the ideal basework for the skins, seams are incredibly obvious and oh, god, what did you do to Kerrigans face? There's a reason you can't see it well in this photo. Bought it thinking at least the bone wings were salvageable, which, they were, if you put enough time into resizing, modding and adding a few scripts - But what for? Might as well make your own! Basic sculpt work alone does NOT redeem this and I feel pretty upset for having wasted so much of my money. Some of your work reflects real competence, ability and care. This was not one of those pieces. I hope you look into taking this off the marketplace and reworking it, or selling it for half the price (At least)
