My co-blogger Sven Idyll over at opensweden. Leva i "kartong" is doing an interesting project on making an age-appropriate looking female avatar at 40-something.
My main complaints on Sven's attempts so far are
1. The avatars look way older than 40-something, in my mind they look more like 60-70.
2. Until his latest attempt published today he dressed them like 20-somethings and with the paraphernalia of that age group, like toe-rings
3. Aging doesn't necessarily mean you become "uglier", it just means you have to spend a bit more time in the morning and you have to do more regular up-keep and work harder for the results.
Here I would like to post some inspirational pictures for Sven with real life women in their 40´s.

A good idea and great examples to work from. All ages are important.
ReplyDeleteyay we all know that 40 something is the new 20s hehe - we dont look that old as those avatars made - as i did comment on too :)
ReplyDeletei know i dont:) /vampi
Please Bock, most of these pics are heavily photoshopped. And more than one of these women had a facelift.
ReplyDeleteEven snapshots that are presented in media as reports from yesterdays events where stars gathered are photoshopped, not just portraits from a studio.
Sorry. These pics have as little with real life looks to do as our avas... : ))
Ask me how I know and I will tell you.
Haha is that so Kandi? But theses women really do look more like my 40-something female friends - and they haven´t had face-lifts for sure...
ReplyDeleteWhats wrong with toe-rings?!! Now I have to go and look for some to my 60-ish ava farbror Ib...
ReplyDeleteLOL Apmel, nothing wrong with toe-rings on a teenager, but on a grown woman - or man for that matter - it´s gross
