Title: Avatar History Record
Post by: Haiz on July 24, 2015, 08:01:25 PM
it keeps coming up in the general discussion thread whenever there's a significant change in avatars, and this kind of thread has been suggested before, so:

Welcome to the avatar history thread! Post or describe your previous avatars, it's always fun to see - either for the nostalgia, or character development, or because some members weren't members just yet.

***

Here's my lineup so far:

... I've changed my avatar more than I should have probably (aka to the point that I don't even remember what order they went in, and have probably mixed them up with my tumblr avatars too) and I've only been active on the forum for like three months. It went something like this:

I'm not in a computer to put and see the images but I can barely remember which P.P I had

1.- Reynir looking at Emil (or it was at lalli??)
2.- A blushing APH Norway (Lukas Bondevik)
3.- A demon!APH Norway
4.- An Owl City one
5.- Kitty!Adam Young from an interview
6.- Adam Young singing with a lot of birds the verse ''da-da" from To The Sky

...And I think I have more xD

That's literally it. Two of the pictures are personal there description will have to do.

It's fine, Dipper's got a loving and caring family who can make sure he doesn't get into trouble.
Julian on the other hand has Sara, who's at the end of her tether in all likelihood, Alexis, who has standing orders from his CO not to let "that mad nerd" near active-deployment Cleansers ever again, and Haiz, who is only there because the Seiður Academy told hir to be.
Between the three of them, I imagine they form the trio of "It's your turn to babysit this idiot!"

Aw.  Actually, Sara is quite fond of Julian, who reminds her a bit of her late first husband (the impetuous one), and also of her bright 12-year-old nephew.

Besides, having spent her entire adult life trying to be responsible and practical (while being personally interested in something IMpractical, namely the now-vanished pre-Rash world), she finds it rather refreshing to be around someone who isn't fettered by any such considerations.  (Even though she often has to remind him to eat and occasionally even to change his clothes.)

I would follow suit, but with my current avatar and the available space in the frame I think it would look like a dunce cap (maybe a bit appropriate, maybe a bit over the top).

Funny thing, I've seen your current avatar long enough that the original looks odd to me.

Out-of-character-grun is the new in-character-grun. I accept no liability.

The actual Icelandic term for computer is tölva (number oracle) though, because Icelanders shun loanwords like vampires shun garlic.

What does that even say about Sigrun as a character.

This is an absolute truth, very rare foreign words survive the Icelandic language... and even they're not safe. Pizza's been one such loan word that people thought would last but recently the Icelandic version, flatbaka, has actually become more popular (possibly because it sounds silly but that's beside the point).

What does that even say about Sigrun as a character.

It says more about your deep understanding of Sigrun's character than anything else imo.

Meanwhile I'm getting ready for my first day at work... maybe feeling just a little bit nervous, had weird dreams where I was sewing a wristband out of a piece of wood (?), made coffee too strong in the morning, can't find my phone, the usual stuff. To quote a fellow forumite: "huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

- My first avatar was a really old OC of mine that was actually based on myself, so I thought it would fit as a personal avatar.

(http://i.imgur.com/Ihddz5K.jpg)

- Then I changed to mad robin's version of my ssssona.

- I had a sligthly modified version for the forum anniversary.

Thank you! The couple in the pic are from Warhammer 40K and they're actually super-soldiers in power armour. The guy is an Astarte, the woman is a Sororita (Astarte, but female and without 5+ years of surgical and chemical enhancements). If you dare dwell into depths of /tg/, there used to be (still is, maybe?) a lot of Astartes/Sororitas shipping, so IIRC, this pic is some remnant of this.

That's random! xDD I get a few comparisons like this. Someone saw him as a fusion of Peter Dinklage and David Morse (before he had the black hair colored on) and then some thought I was sculpting some basket ball player I don't even know about.

Not a huge history, but here is a woodcut from a 1950s edition of Kalevipoeg (the Kalevala in Estonian) that I used as my first Forum avatar.  I like the telepathic image, is all.
(http://i.imgur.com/Kcd5YOa.jpg)

My next avatar came after the craze for posting self-insert characters as magical girls in dreams.  I came to late to that party (as usual) and my drawing posted featured my stubbornly non-magical character appearing as most of us appear in our dreams, sans pants.  So my character was desperately embarrassed and trying to pull her very large sweater over her even larger pantsless hips.  Understandably, this went over like a lead balloon, but I was able to adapt the embarrassed face as an avatar.  It does correspond to how I feel much of the time trying to post the odd edit or drawing.

So now I have a stylishly dressed anthropomorphic pumpkin, named Pumkin from my very favorite youtube series Baman Piderman. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7-TQdN40Dk&list=PLD0750A49525188E9) It's a really great series guys, it seems super pointless at first but then suddenly develops a plot about eleven episodes in and then later has some moments that are actually pretty touching. It's great. Go watch it.

Then I had a sketch of my ssssona that I think Piney did? Can't seem to find that file though.

After that I had a painting of Hannu that I did, had this one for quite a while:

Time for a change.  George is a lovely boy, but I'll try out this snippet from a larger work I did earlier this year, for a while.

No, it's a detail from a Chocolate Box exchange present I did for Unlos - a tribute to the first adventure in the style of the artist Peter Max.  (I'm pretty sure I crossposted it to the Art Museum? Definitely on AO3 & Tumblr.)  It's slightly eye-watering in its entirety.

It's May 12th. Which is to say, it's the 4th anniversary of the day I joined this forum. Although I don't come by so often anymore, this forum holds a special place in my heart, and gave me much-needed human connection during times when I was in transition in my life and couldn't get much contact IRL. For that, I'll always be grateful.

I always commemorate this day with a new profile picture, and this year is no different. Slowly, my profile picture approaches what I actually look like. (I'm pretty sure the glasses and hair comprise about 90% of how people recognize me, anyway!)

EDIT:
Now I'm trying to remember what your previous avatar looked like. This ones very nice, a smile would have made it all that more nicer.
Too bad there's not an old avatar file to look at the changes that people make.
Well would you look at that, I did get back to smiling after all. Now I'm misty-eyed.

Another May 12th has come, and this one marks the 5th anniversary of my joining the forum. I can't believe it's been this long! As with every year, I have a new profile picture to commemorate the occasion for myself. It's definitely the most accurate me I've ever drawn, hair color notwithstanding! (Oh how I wish my hair was that vibrant...)

(https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/53420979-0824-4099-8c5b-4769c4e13b0b/ddx1dd6-ac9cb2aa-5613-49db-bb4e-5ea5aaf194f0.png/v1/fill/w_1024,h_1366,q_80,strp/self_portrait_2020_by_fireflysongs_ddx1dd6-fullview.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOiIsImlzcyI6InVybjphcHA6Iiwib2JqIjpbW3siaGVpZ2h0IjoiPD0xMzY2IiwicGF0aCI6IlwvZlwvNTM0MjA5NzktMDgyNC00MDk5LThjNWItNDc2OWM0ZTEzYjBiXC9kZHgxZGQ2LWFjOWNiMmFhLTU2MTMtNDlkYi1iYjRlLTVlYTVhYWYxOTRmMC5wbmciLCJ3aWR0aCI6Ijw9MTAyNCJ9XV0sImF1ZCI6WyJ1cm46c2VydmljZTppbWFnZS5vcGVyYXRpb25zIl19.pQ9r53D27EZD8krCq1fnK-BF23HxbljUeq7qWLcd2MM)

I thought I'd try something a bit different from my usual full-digital stuff, so I made the sketch in pencil and only colored it digitally. I think it turned out pretty well!

Wave, I really like your new avatar! It may be just my imagination, however I always see a bird in the center, a bit like Tuuri in her bird shape, but in green.  :tuuri:
(we should have a small glowing bird emoji next to Tuuri's regular one, don't you agree? Or everybody would think that it's the Twitter logo?)

Y'know, when I first created that, it was indeed a Yellow Submarine homage to Adv. 1 in Peter Max style - or so I thought.  I found out a couple of years later that the artist on Yellow Submarine (whose style I was ripping off) was actually Heinz Edelmann.  I was chagrined and embarrassed, but delighted to stand corrected.
