| More and more often, I keep thinking: "Man that's a cool avatar" or "wtf is that"
So instead of asking everyone separately, I'll ask everyone at once 
1) What is your Avatar of?
2) Why'd you choose it?
I'll start:
1) My avatar is the mini-logo for my website design company.
2) I choose it because I don't have any good models to use for it. (I'm working on it. =])

| My avatar, is one of the many shapes of the mysterious Lord Siwoc.
In this he is Lord Commander of an Imperial Guard regiment, with subtle hints to his chaos background.
Drawn by a friend from another forum. |

| My avatar is a pic of my very first painted figure (well ok did try to paint a regiment of beastmen when I was 15, but never got the point of painting them uniform brown) - The figure represents my dwarven noble - Dugan ...proud leader of "Dugan's Daredevil Dungeoneers!"

| 1) My avatar is called Lulu la Tortue, it's the animal bodyguard of Captain Tortiou, leader of my Reiklanders. Lulu is a tough little turtle, she always stays at the feet of her master and if a duel goes wrong, she will heroically bite the toes of Captain Tortiou's foes.
Lulu la Tortue is another proof of Admin Tom's extraordinary skill with Green Stuff - he just sculpted the turtle himself and added it to the base of Captain Tortiou
(here's a pic of the whole mini: http://bp3.blogger.com/_QaVZICFVA8c/RY8y5C1GhPI/AAAAAAAAAFk/x1bKDKMwnCc/s1600-h/IMGP0029.JPG)
2) why do I use it as an avatar? Well, why not?  It's just that I find this little turtle extremely cute and that the whole model of captain Tortiou and his turtle bodyguard was one of the best gifts I ever received! Thanks again, Admin Tom!

2) The first band I've decided to listen on my own, and not just followed my peers.

| 1) Cathayan Ronin conversion (usable as a Knights Vanguard from the Merchant Caravan warband or as a Officer from the Battle Monks warband)
2) It's the first model I did some conversion work on so I'm a bit melancholic about it.

All right, that's it. Who took it?
I will leave the room for 5 minutes and I want to see my avatar right back in place when I come back. Understood? Good. *walks out*
