A quick one of Amaris for #PortraitThursday ~💜

A very quick shot of Amaris wearing a purple latex jumpsuit with fishnet sides. She is wearing gold accessories, like a belt around her waist with gothy charms and gold bracelets.

Almost Black and White

A little sepia, a little color, and my hair doing whatever it wants 🤭 for #PortraitThursday.

A little mysterious. A little alluring. Maybe a little mischievous. What do you think?

Morrigan again for this week's #PortraitThursday ~🎃

#FFXIV #FF14 #FinalFantasyXIV #VPrepost #VPSupport #VirtualPhotography #VPinspired #Au_Ra #GPOSER

It's my Halloween Au Ra, Morrigan, who is extremely excited for All Saints' Wake! She's dressed appropriately for the advent in an orange and black dress with a cute cape, bow, gold details and lace. And we can't forget the large witch hat decorated in lace, pearls and ribbon!

Morrigan for this week's #PortraitThursday 🎃
(and probably for the rest of Spooky Month™)

#FFXIV #FF14 #FinalFantasyXIV #VPrepost #VPSupport #VirtualPhotography #VPinspired #Au_Ra #GPOSER

Just a quick studio portrait of my Halloween Au Ra, Morrigan. She's wearing a top and skirt with orange and black stripes with lace details. A large orange witch's hat sits upon her head decorated with a black rose and ribbons.

I chose my newest OC, Nova, for #PortraitThursday ~🤍

#FFXIV #FF14 #FinalFantasyXIV #VPrepost #VPSupport #VirtualPhotography #VPinspired #Hyur #GPOSER #AndroidsNeedLoveToo

Decided to use my dark studio for this week's portrait- I thought it'd work better since Nova wears a lot of white. Here she is wearing a long white strapless satin dress with a black harness and bow details. She accessorizes with a pearl necklace and sheer thigh-highs. Those 'bracelets' are not actually jewelry, they are regulators that keep her from using the full extent of her android abilities. For everyone else's safety of course.

#PortraitThursday – The Antinous Mondragone, a colossal 95 cm-high marble head of the deified Antinous, c. AD 130. Part of an acrolithic cult statue, its 31 drilled holes that once secured a metal headdress. Its idealised features recall Dionysus and Apollo.

Amber got a new dress so it was time to take a nice portrait of her wearing it! A very cute black jumper with an orange blouse with lace, heart and bow accents. Adorable-yes! Does she sting-also yes!

It's Maris, my mermaid OC! She's looking quite elegant in a sea-inspired dress featuring lots of pearls and sheer fabric. In her signature orange and teals of course!

#PortraitThursday — Colossal marble head of Hadrian from Sagalassos, c. AD 120–125. Found in the Roman baths in 2007, it belonged to an acrolithic statue nearly 5m tall. Remarkably, traces of red pigment survived on Hadrian’s carefully arranged curls when the head was excavated.

I haven't really taken many shots of Pistachio, so I figured I'd do one for portrait Thursday. She is looking pretty darn cute in a fancy outfit consisting of a striped collared blouse, tie, jacket and skirt in her favorite shade of green. She would like headpats now plz.

#PortraitThursday - Marble portrait bust of Antinous. Excavated in Patras in 1856 alongside a second, almost identical bust of Antinous. Crafted around AD 130–138, shortly after Antinous drowned in the River Nile and was deified by Hadrian.
