Here is my latest attempt using a few more advanced tools in Photoshop. This is my avatar on an Oneida Warrior wearing a brocade black velvet jacket with gold embroidery. "Olite" (meaning "Always returns home") has bear claw applied war paint on his face, traditional practice of cut ear lobes (status symbol), quahog shell ear rings, tattooed face and forehead and maple leaf "sparkles" (the white skin treatment) to his blued avatar skin. His eyes and nose were enlarged, longer eye lashes added
I initially was going to add strawberry leaf detail for texture, but getting this much detail was very time consuming, but it was pretty darned interesting that I didn't even realize I spent my whole Sunday sitting at my desk working on the project! And finally, Olite's background is layered with a woodland forest and Fort Stanwix National Monument (Rome, NY), which was originally built in 1758 during the French and Indian War by the British and was also rebuilt and occupied by the Americans in 1776, during the American Revolution.
