Being a new player in the land of Second Life can be challenging. Finding nice things for a new avatar is tedious, for a male avatar however, it is always a challenge.

I am going to be roaming around in an RP sim and wanted a different look. I am normally a female avatar as my photos on this blog show, for this look I decided to go…MALE!

I stopped to think, what all was my male self going to need. I came up with the basics, Shape, Eyes, Skin, Hair, Clothes…the challenge was finding them and putting them together. I do not have any extra bits as a “normal” male. Those can be found if you put together a look similar to this and it’s wanted, for me however, it is not needed.

All these can be found on the Second Life Marketplace except the hair.
The look!

This is by no means an exact way one “has to” make their avatar. This is just a guide on how a nice looking avatar can be put together on a minimal linden budget.
