Okay with the new makeover availability in the BLTC, I decided a while ago I may want to change some of my female toons as I went with a model that turned out to appear rather chunky when geared in more revealing attire.  I am not so sure that is an issue any longer but I am considering changing my Thief.  Her look was initially based around her name, Lollipop Gumdrop, so pinkish hair, asian appearance, pit tails, pale skin.  After months of seeing slightly thinner, darker skinned/haired, white haired, non-asian, etc., etc., I feel she might be up for a full make over.

This thread could be used for your own requests, a general Make-over thread.

Ahhh...went ahead and took the plunge, leaving the thread up though for others to post such requests (if mod feels like its a waste, delete away).  My choice went with thinner, darker, face change, typical frosted thief look:

and the celestial version

Honestly, I am not a fan of any of the available options - this one is probably the one I hate the least.


EDIT:
BAH! A few minutes too late! ^^ I will say that the haircut you used is probably my second least hated one. ^^

She is about one shade to dark for me, but I really like the look with the hair and dark skin.  If I later change again I would probably go with something like this, probably very BA in Celestial dye too.

Just a tip for anyone trying to decide on appearances using gear codes, you can also find dye codes on gw2db.

I'll wait for the name changing possibilities. Honestly, I spend 30 minutes minimum trying out different looks for my characters, but I guess I was a little too quick when I picked my main's name. I just wanted to get it started <3

You, sir, were inspiring.  Needing to alter my ranger for the same reason as my thief (fat thigh syndrom, and the bust was quite a bit overstated in the Krytan Jerkin) I remade her with an eye to your suggestion (I even went a darker shade):

One of the things I seriously dislike about GW2's character creation is how poor the options for creating a character of colour are. But I have to say, that's a fairly fantastic choice. I might even like it more than the one I posted.

EDIT:
It's official - I love your ranger more than the one I posted. Absolutely stunning.

Does the kit let you choose another gender? I rolled a female guardian, but heavy armors look terrible on chicks in my opinion.

I think you mean "Its hard to make female characters look sexy in GW2 heavy armor"  

And I agree, though the Norn T3 leggings (heck T3 in general for them) can be worked in with surprising results.  But outside of that I have to agree.

Yeah...unfortunately, I rolled a human.

I used the kit and changed my Guardian to a dude, armor looks way better, especially the t2 heavy human cultural shoulders.
