Anything I could add as a description is already in the title. I wanted to do something romantic, that's why I chose the tattoo...and then I absolutely told myself not to do a black & white-look, cause everybody does them, they're boring, they're overused...take your pick. But I ended up doing this nonetheless, because I just think it suits her so very well.

Besides, I recently discovered my love for dark skinned norn, thanks to this site. ^-^

So...say hello to my winter princess...Ayleen Ravenwing. :)

Ahm... this torch... yes, I know it's Christmas' ones, but...

And another black/white concept. After your previous concept, that I loved very much, this one is kinda disappointing for me, sorry.

I know the torch is not everyone's favorite, but...I like it...cause it's one of those skins you don't see everywhere, and of course...try finding something else to fit the other wintersday weapons...it's impossible to do I believe. x)

Also, as I mentioned in my description, you're absolutely right with the b/w-comment...but I loved taking screens with her out in the snow and I wouldn't choose any other color for that now after I've seen how the screens turned out. ^-^

Tbh, that's the reason why I started posting some looks here - because I loooooooooove taking those screens... *-*

I actually don´t see why someone would complain about the torch, it is perfect for this christmas-y black and white look and I am pretty sure there couldn´t be a much dumber comment like "her skin is too black"

The black and white look and these armourpieces aren´t the most original ones, but I think you made the best out of this theme with the unique weapon skins and the skin/tattoo mix
Your screens are really good, it´s noticable that you enjoy taking them ^^

For a all black and white look, this looks really nice (I usually hate black and white xD).
Only thing, I have mixed feelings about, are the white tattoos. In some screens, they look a bit strange and irritating, but I can understand, why you chose them for this look :)

Wow there's a lot of things to say about this look.
First of all, I really don't like black and white, because I love colors and blach & white are kinda boring to me.
But, your screens are really good and lovely ! They have this warm atmosphere, feels like christmas in summer !
The torch is perfect here, I love it, and I love the weapons you used too.
The only flaw imo is the skirt/dress, the legs are showing too much I think, maybe the cultural armor (t2 or t3) could be good ? I don't know, I'm not an expert about norns !

So I'm giving you a silver, because the colors originality and descriptions are not the best, but the screens are SO goo ! Also I like the fact that you said you were posting it just because you like taking screens with your character. You seem to be a really sweet person so keep on posting, your doing great ! (I think your sugar flower we'll be my favorite anyway)

I absolutely love the tattoos here!
Usually i dislike these tats, since i hate how they look combined with most armor-pieces ... and i dont like the leg-part. You however made the tattoos really look great and you took some gorgeous screens to present the look!
I have mixed feelings about the colours here. Black and white does work, but i always fell like black and white is somewhat an alternative colour-scheme if people dont get anything else to work. Also im not sure about the boots.
All in all its still a great upload though and i appreciate your work with the tattoos and your awesome screens! Gold from me :)
