hey, my name is Yuriy, in ukraine they call me Yura for short. And I know Yuri is girl's name in japan, but in Russian, it is guy's name. I thought Yurawym is pretty cool name, guess I was wrong. _________________ Try my OHR exporter/importer.

The Ukraine is generally a bad place to go for advice on cool names. Yurawym sounds like the usual fantasy names, which is to say, random nonsense with lots of Y's. Yarawin would be an improvement, but not by much.
Now, if you wanted to name him after an OHR'r, I'd suggest naming him "Gizzlethwait". There is a name which will inspire lust in his maidens and fear in his enemies. |

Meh. People are just showing their cultural biases. I'm sure none of the connections others brought up regarding that name apply in the Ukraine. |

Well it seems as you got better thing seemed to get smoother and less line-ish *ahem*
But whatever, do what you do.
Names that start with Y are hard to make awsome. Even in old long winded type names Y was not really a good starting letter.

Blyes might work, but B and l are very similar in height, while "yes" is secluded, making the name look more like "Bl-yes". You can add "Se" the front to even out the letter heights, to make "Seblius".

*sigh* Everyone got all mad when I suggested not using the line tool and that the brush made things look more organic. But as Ysoft got better his faces became more rounded. I just thought it was hypocritical that I got told to stfu and he kinda took my advice anyway.
I don't give half a damn. But hey, you asked. _________________ Indy OHR! and National OHR Month Contest going on now!

Your advice was more alone the lines of the line-tool being this horrendously evil tool where nothing good can be made using it, and using it would mean certain death. While really, any tool can be used as long as the final product is of quality.
And I quoted you not because I don't understand what you're saying (although I'd have to assume what you're saying), but because your wording is just terrible. |

I was going to suggest Yuren, but then figured since it sounds exactly like urine, that it would be a bad idea for a name. _________________

If you are still trying to choose a name I would suggest Zux, (pronounced like Zoocks)... or not... oh wow my names I choose are weird so don't mind me, but to me he looks like a Zux, or a Kalim? Maybe? _________________

Alright, for the last time, his name is going to be Blythe.
Now back to the topic. Here is a new face, his name is Darion.

Significant improvement. Ears are too low on the head and the hair needs work. Those are the next things I'd focus on. _________________
