McNugget utilizes this technique perfectly, not just with the lack of clothing, but with an uncluttered background as well. Now I'm not up to snuff on my Egyptian lore, but I can fanagle a story! I imagine this is an Egyptian god, up in his palace in the sky where the sunlight can shine upon his golden body. As a god, he needs no clothing, simply his weapon and the proper head attire to show his rank. The look on his face makes me wonder if something is about to go down though! I wonder if he's displeased with another god, or us perhaps? :0 Congrats McNugget! Another reminder that going nude is the bee's knees (although maybe only if we look like that?).

It's nice to see the lightning hands being utilized, Force Lightning wutwut, and even great choices made for the face help bring ol' Palpy to ... an avatar, yess. That grimace, those eyebrows, those eyes! -shudders- Don't stare too long, guys. Congrats McNugget! Now where's someone with a Vader cosplay? We need to restore balance to the Force, pronto.

Maybe what we're actually seeing here is the training of the next generation of fearless avian warriors; schooled as soon as they are fledged in the ancient art of monster slaying. Here you see the tiny feathered combatants learning to use their initiative and make use of whatever is to hand to aid thieir mission, including their lunch! Will the brave nestlings win out again the many-tentacled beastie from the scary land of Belowstairs? Or will they just end up having to wait until dinner time before they get anything to eat...only time will tell!!

When I first saw this avi a few weeks ago I immediately fell in love with it. It's simple and yet with just a few items, McNugget has manage to make a wonderfully whimsical avi! The alignment of the two water spirits fits perfectly with the umbrella's pose and the symmetrical background nicely balances the weight of the top half. Just what are these silly spirits and hummingbirds doing? I really don't know but it looks like they are having fun in their mischief! Let's give a big round of applause to McNugget on his fourth star!

This, my friends, is an all around badass avatar. I mean look at it. Ugh! That is seriously something I wish I could put together myself. McNugget has created such a formidable, malevolent, and downright demonic looking underworld warlord. Seriously, you don't wanna cross paths with that guy. The avatar alone is worthy of the AP, and the framing of the lava and background makes a damn fine hellscape. Definitely the accursed cherry on top of the satanic sundae. I ain't lyin', this is a great lookin' avi. I wouldn't try to lepre-CON you. ... That was the last one. I swear. So congrats to McNugget on his fifth star!
