Second Life Furry Avatar Tutorial - Part 1

Part one of a two-part tutorial. This tutorial will show you the basics for building the head of a furry avatar in Second Life, and some strategies and methods that more people need to use.

I had background music but due to Youtube's new (fail) policies I had to remove it. Sorry if it's boring.

Part Two: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_I6YeXluzg&eurl=http://www.youtube.com/my...

UPDATE: Note that I will regrettably no longer be continuing my avatar tutorials. I was hacked several months ago, in February of 2009, by the group known as Dwi'Tek and, due to other complications as well, forced to abandon Second Life altogether.

I hope what I have made has helped you all so that many avatar designers may take my place.

So Rating on the difficulty to make a furry avatar. What would you rate it?

[ZombieZephyr]

@yoshiops It needs a whole new readjustment with the mainlining of sculpts and mesh.

It all depends on your external tools and skills with them, now.

[ZombieZephyr]

@TheGuitarplayer112 probably not. I'm not as experienced anymore.

I do plan on making a mesh MLP avatar down the road.

@ZombieZephyr can you make a tutorial on a horse avatar

[ZombieZephyr]

@BerryflameLuv Likely you're not in a sandbox. Look for a place with build enabled. One good public sandbox is the "Fluffy" sim.

[BerryflameLuv]

@ZombieZephyr Oh, Well I can't put it down anywhere I try, Any suggestions?

[BerryflameLuv]

@ZombieZephyr Thanks!

[ZombieZephyr]

@BerryflameLuv DSD has a free one available.
