Me in Hero Forge

I don't know why it didn't occur to me to do this earlier, but here's me in Hero Forge. Out of shape and fairly sedentary as I unfortunately often am at my age, this is me on vacation. Sitting on the porch in the fall, when the weather is cool enough to merit a jacket, wearing a Cabela's bucket hat because I have bed head, unshaven for a few days, sweat pants and hiking boots (my feet often get cold, so if I'm outside for any length of time, I'll have warm shoes on) Mountain Dew in my hand and at my feet, and books all around. To be more accurate, I probably should have had moccasins, since that's what I wear at home frequently. Warm and comfortable and easy to put on. But let's assume that I took a break from reading recently and took a walk outside. That sounds like the kind of thing I'd do on vacation.

Sadly, I fritter away too much of my free time on the internet rather than reading like I used to do when I was younger, but it's one of the better habits I'm trying to reintegrate now that my regular routine has been thrown for a loop. 

Here we replace the leather jacket with a regular poly-cotton hoodie. Actually, for fall days, as opposed to winter, that's more likely to be what I wear anyway. The Injun moccasins aren't really like the ones that I wear, but it seemed the closest thing in the Hero Forge library, so I swapped the hiking boots for those.

And changed the angle, of course.

Here I am without the hat, and from yet another angle. I've also switched the hoodie to another athletic type jacket (not that I look athletic in it, but I like wearing that kind of stuff.) The Sinbad vest isn't really a great analog for the kind of puffer vest that I sometimes wear, but I didn't see a better option for it either.
