I like where Kirin's is going. I'm trying to decide what feels off about it. Perhaps it's the jacket. It looks almost like it needs a belt. One of those waist belts might look nicely on it.
I love where blue's is going as well. The colors are very pleasing to the eyes.
However, I don't really think the pillows go with it. For me, it sort of throws off the composition of the image. I believe it's the purple that blends and the other two that just stand out in an awkward way.
It's funny though that you did your background like that, because I was planning to do the same for the background on my next avi

I tried it on this one but it threw it off too much at the time so I didn't keep it.

Great minds think alike ;) It looks great on yours, for sure.
So, maybe lose the pillows. And have you tried silver eyes with that avi? I feel like the head is a bit too dark.
Alright, I think I'll go with Blue this time, even though they're both lovely. It's a little more to my style and I really love how daring it is with color.
