Nope.

About half of my player-made characters are female anyway.

Although I did try it the one time in Mass Effect, just for the hell of it. The results were decidedly less than stellar.

I try to make all my characters look like agent orange children so that I have something to laugh at.

Huh. I made a minecraft replica of myself, but I usually do a bad ass with a beard and long, grizzly hair. he's usually got a really grim face and his skin is kind of weahtered. He kicks ass. His name is usually Turok McCloud or Korban. He is me, and I am he. Except I have a shaved head.

Am I the only one who actually sticks to male characters in video games?

Although, I have recognized that some female characters have a tactical advantage in video games due to smaller hit boxes. :?

you know we do have a members photo thread.... and an edit button :roll:

haha your skate character really does look like you in that picture though, good job!

i would probably never make a female character in skate, if that is even an option. over the years i just decided girls and skateboards are not meant to be, even Elissa Steamer was manly.

For the most part I start off trying to make them look like myself, then give up after about 5-10 mins and just mess with the sliders until I find something I like that looks at least mildly human and should still have realistic mouth movement (Sadly, I'm looking at you Mass Effect, your lip synching isn't brilliant at the best of times, but with anything but the stock characters it leaves a great deal to be desired)

Inspired by this thread, I made myself in this.
