About this Style The song that inspired me to make this avatar was Passion Pit's "Moth's Wings". When the song began, it immedietly made me think of a summers' day in a beautiful countryside. Flowers, an afternoon picnic under the shade of the trees... so, as you can see I played on that and decided to use the orchid trinket. Instead of focusing on the darker colours in the trinket though, I wanted to play on the lighter, pastel-y colours, and used the fairy lips and archduchess blush to make this avatar lighter and more airy, to give it the sense of innocence I felt while listening to this song. The ring and matching earrings are a sort of dedication to the lyrics used in my title. The reason I used the dark eye make up and the tattoo, is that while the song at first listen seemed nice and light and summery, when I listened to it again I realized that the lyrics themselves seemed a little darker, so it's a sort of... symbolism? Idk, haha. "The years have drifted away, but the clouds are clearing up," these two lines are the reason I used the particular hairstyle and colour. While listening to the song, I got this feeling of the darkness trying to push away the light, and I liked the way the tattoo scatters over the shoulder, and makes it look like it's pushing away the "pure"/light hair. I think that's pretty much it! Tags: sfMusic |
