What can I say? I met Rock one day in a sandbox in Furnation ( a sandbox is a place you go to build freely, for those of you who don't know ). At the time, he was working on these incredibly detailed and full-prim dragon Avatars, and I was blown away even t5hen by his work. After talking to him for a bit, I volunteered my writing skills to detail the features of his Avatar for the boxed set he was going to sell, and he accepted.
Soon after, he GAVE me all of the Avatars he had been working on... a total of three at the time. A young dragonling, a male and a female dragon. Soon after, as I continued to feed him ideas and help out when he needed it, he also gave me the royal dragon he had designed; a much more powerful looking male version of his original.
At the time, he asked me if I had a certain look to my persona, and I described myself to him; he soon offered a custom Avatar just for me, and I happily accepted. I was hoping he would do something like this for me, and I wasn't disappointed. It took a few months to complete... For a while we were both offline a lot, and not much work got done.
But recently he handed this to me, and I literally flipped out! Icouldn't believe the detail and design he had worked into this; it's another full prim Avatar, has special textures, and is massively scripted... Not only does it wing flap, open and close the mouth to reveal a flexi tongue, blink and have various eye animations, but it's scripted with 13 different colors and textures! And they're all controlled by a very well made HUD.
The thing that gets to me the most is... Rock did this for FREE. There are people in SL who would charge you 100+ USD for ONE of those features... and yet Rock did it because he could, and because he wanted to. There's no way I can thank him enough for all his work... other than to remain open to his requests for help from now on. :3

wow, i need to look him up when i get back online again, thats an awsome avvy.
i have an avvy that my friend snakewildlife made though i wouldn't mind one by rock. and if i may guess, he specializes in dragons doesnt he?
say, think you could find out a ballpark of what it would cost me for him to make an av of my char from my desc here?
