What's wrong with Alan Lee's version?

Nothing. I never saw that. Actually, I like it very very much. I did not know that Gildor is such a cutie.

(The one I saw was in a collectible card game and the picture is downright horrible...) The only slight objection I have against that Gildor is that the colours are so light that it might not look good in 64x64 size. I could try.

If not, it's perfectly fine, since I have no idea what Gildor is going to look like and yours probably will be more suitable.

Now that'd be lovely. If you really are willing to do it, please do.

I'm sure it'd be lovely. As to how he looks like, well, just don't make him blonde...

How's this look? I darkened it.

Thinlómien · 03-13-2008, 06:58 AM

Everybody seems to be putting a lot of effort to my avvie.

Thank you very much, Nerwen. I will use that unless THE Ka has a terrible itch to draw Gildor and creates a masterpiece (like she usually does)...

Anyway, I like your new look, Nerwen, and that of Groin's too... This will sure be a great game.

Nice avvies people!

It was pretty hard to find a nice pic of Tom but this will have to do until / if I find a better one.

I'm not sure if changing the locations or sigs is enhancing the feel of the game as they are seldom looked at but changing the avvie sure catches the eye and reminds us of the roles.

Let's hope this RPG-style (in-character -style that is so as not fuzz the border between RPG's and WW) doesn't scare too many people. I'm really looking forwards to this.

I had already decided to have a pause because I'm quite busy... But this idea sounded so awesome that I just have to join.

Thanks a lot, Legate. There's goodbye to my schoolwork... Nah, at least I have an excuse now.

I'm not sure yet on who I'll be, I have too many ideas. Gollum would be nice, or some sweet orc or the Mouth of Sauron or even Bergil or Forlong. I considered Old Man Willow too but then thought that his posts would probably not be too constructive...

We'll see. I'll try to make up my mind soon.

It looks like everyone's getting into character already.

Let's get this started as soon as possible, then.
