The "Rate my Look" Thread

  To be honest I think the colors that I see on that dress right now are kind of uninteresting. They don't feel unified, and since the facepaint and hair are so bold, that makes them look even more dull. I use dull colors, but also have dull-colored hair, so it's not as noticeable. I suggest at least one bold color in your outfits, maybe even two. Right now it just feels like it wasn't even dyed.
  
  A headpiece would help, so would a shot of you where the shoes are visible.

  The dyes went a-hurhur. QQ But, decent enough for me, what do you guys think?

  8/10 looks pretty good. Evil giant pirate style.

  I prefer the Wing helm but it needs a new set of colours to match.

  etc etc etc

  
  The dress could use some dyes. Reason why it looks not so interesting is because of all the light colours.
  Compare these:

  Personally think that red will suit your character more rather than pink.
  Like this one:

  I had a lot of trouble deciding what would go well with the Banallen shoes, but I decided on two outfits to go with it. What do you all think?

  I know there could be other combinations but I'm really out of my wits for this piece.

  I like the elegant gothic better with the boots and hat, but the two white pieces on the dress being next to eachother make it blend too much, maybe make the skirt part of the dress the navy blue? The other dress I find is too plain for the shoes and hat, so first one like 5/10 and the second 9/10

  I took up the advice and here is the new look. Dyes were a pain but I got the colour right after a few tries.
  It certainly does look better and lessens the greyish look of the white part.

  (I'll still keep the Ceremonial dress as it is. Nobody wears it so I can be unique with that look.
  
  I agree that it doesn't look as great as elegant gothic. Elegant gothic dresses are plentiful on my server, yet almost nobody dyes it this way. They prefer the standard lollipop white-color-white.)
• Adelynn wrote on 2010-12-02 19:09
  Those boots look pretty cute with that dress in those colors. Much better than the ceremonial, and better now that the dress is more blue.
  
  The light blue on the hat is a bit distracting right now, since it matches the shield but not the outfit itself. I'd go for white, or maybe even black, if it works.
  9/10
• Yogurticecream wrote on 2010-12-02 19:46
  Tested black on simulator, there is a little glare so it turns out grey.
  So I went for white.
  
  No more dye-ing for me for a while.

  (I rate my own outfit 9/10, this is the best it can be.)
  Thanks for advice.

  Ah, I think white works out better anyway, just because of the amount of white on the shoes. The bows are so big it could be annoying to balance. 9.5/ Just for the blue being off, although I'd blame that more on Nexon's horrible selection of fixed dyes more than anything. Dark purple is horrid to get, too.

  Well after much thought and deliberation I have decided to say good-bye to purple and hand my wife all my purple gear since that's her colors. So this is what I'll be doing this weekend or at least working towards. I'm changing my coloration in parts but this is the first part I'll be doing. I'm kind of curious what people think before i do it, thoughts?

  Cool Color scheme. You might be able to do something other than brown but altogether good.
  8.5/10

  Reason behind it is for ease of equips and because it blends in nicely. Idk the colors just remind me of the interior of a car which is just relaxing to me XD. Plus keeping everything in the warm spectrum make it easy on the eyes which the darker colors help with too. I'm sick of bright colors.

  I actually like the brown in there, but it's hard to see in the boots so it ends up looking random on the robe.

  Yea, that's partially the angle though as well. But I'm trying to keep it to the smaller highlights so it isn't overpowering and on my bat boots the only small highlight is the bat wings, so to balance out the detailing on the boots the secondary color on the pharrell gloves is the brown instead which helps. Imo anyway. :)

  From previous comments a solid color doesn't seem to be a great thing. So I'm guessing on 6/10. That and the screeny I took didn't really show many details.
  
  EDIT:Better Picture

  6/10. Too much black.
