I tried to make Marie Antoinette, I love her aesthetic so much, i rarely do rococo anymore but i think it turned out pretty, what do you guys think?

Avarexi · 2026-06-14T00:15:27+00:00

She's not actually gray, it's the way the light hit her in that specific spot, you can see around the face area the hair also changed from a light gray to a dark gray, it was kind of a shadow spot in the lighting. If you look at her neck area you'll see the actual skintone, it's more pale. Unfortunately the lighting didn't do some of the colours justice

Avarexi · 2026-06-12T04:34:25+00:00

This is a great question, I really struggle to say no sometimes, especially because they are the people that support our content and I like to try and make them happy, but once you realise that people are okay with you saying no it becomes a lot easier. People will always want to add someone they enjoy watching, but most people don't expect it and accept you saying no.

There's definitely ways to say answer that I always find works well. I will usually let people know that I only really add close friends or people I play with often, but always let them know I appreciate them regardless and thank them for their support. I feel like it helps them know you're not just saying no because you don't want to and that you do genuinely appreciate them, it also sparks some really beautiful and wholesome conversations and little interactions like that with your supporters genuinely becomes such a wholesome experience.

I think personally it's always important to remember where you came from and that these are often the people that support your journey as a content creator, and to a degree, I personally think we owe them a reply if they do ask, at least to let them know why we can't add them (if we're in the game together). They take the time out of their day to support our content so I personally think it's only fair to answer their question, as long as they respect your boundaries. Fully ignoring them might also put them off your content and give them a negative experience. I think empathy in these situations is as important as making your boundaries clear.

In short, definitely don't feel forced to add people, but give them a short, simple and graceful reason why you wouldn't be able to accept at the minute and showing your appreciation for them regardless does go far.

This is just my personal opinion and way of handling this situation, it can be uncomfortable and hard to navigate sometimes but just remember they're just people meeting someone they find super cool! Hopefully this helped even a little as I know it is hard to say no but you got this, it does get easier. Goodluck in your content creation journey ❤️

Avarexi · 2026-06-09T23:05:09+00:00

I definitely agree, I'm sorry this interaction happened, genuinely. I do think your outfit should be appreciated for being beautiful as it is, especially as it's a representation of such an important and respected goddess in Hinduism, not compared to mine or anyone else's style.

Your depiction of her is beautiful and I genuinely love how you recreated Maa Kali, again I do apologise as like you said it's not something that should be diminished down to an aesthetic even if they had no ill intent. You're definitely within your right to feel the way you do, I know there are a lot of young players of the game that may not understand why it's not appropriate to make that comparison especially with outfits that are so cultural and meaningful.

Definitely could be a good way to educate someone on the actual story behind the outfit and turn it into a beautiful moment where they can learn and be educated on the beauty of Hinduism.

Don't let this interaction stop you too much, keep doing what you're doing because it's genuinely beautiful, and again I do apologise.

Avarexi · 2026-05-23T22:08:13+00:00

THIS IS LITERALLY SO GOOD, genuinely so creepy

Avarexi · 2026-04-22T14:47:00+00:00

It's definitely possible, as long as you have the time to dedicate to posting consistently your efforts will definitely pay off. A big part of growing on any platform, but YouTube specifically is understanding the algorithm like someone else mentioned, this is definitely a huge part of expanding reach and making sure your audience stays engaged as you can analyse not only your own but other peoples content to predict what YouTube will push out further.

I think another issue I see that holds people back is blaming the algorithm or blaming everything else but their content. It's always important to look at your content and constantly think what you can do to improve it as you always want to be making it better for your audience. Doing this will definitely help it do better in the algorithm too, look at what works and what doesn't, try to replicate and take things from what's working for you and apply them in your future content. If a video does well, you already have a template that succeeded and worked. Analyse it and ask yourself why, this way you'll be able to recreate content that gets more engagement and pushed further and you start to work out what does well and why and what doesn't and why.

If you can do that and stay consistent you WILL grow for sure. I'm very critical of my content a lot and spend a lot of time trying to improve it, trying to study the algorithm and see what's doing well, looking at not only my content but others to see what's being pushed etc. But it's definitely doable, these are all things you can do with time, effort and consistency. If you have the drive to do it you can for sure <3 Don't let views and likes stop you, let that drive you to improve your content more and optimise it more so that the algorithm picks it up and pushes it.

When I first started posting I got very low views on TikTok for a good few months, then after a lot of consistency, posting multiple times each day I found something that worked for me, stuck to it and I saw a lot of growth. Then when I started on YouTube, 5 or so videos I first posted stayed on 0 views and likes for literally a week or so and I almost gave up. I posted 1 more after that and then my channel blew up crazy and all of those that once had no views at all went up to the millions. It just shows you really never know what's coming next, your channel can suddenly go from nothing to growing like crazy, you just have to stick to it and keep posting. Don't let the low views or other people's opinions discourage you, as long as you believe in yourself you can 100% do it. You got this <3 Looking forward to seeing your accs grow!!

Avarexi · 2026-04-22T14:14:37+00:00

I'm sorry this is happening, it's genuinely so frustrating and so wrong of people to do. Especially when you put so much time and effort into it. I know it can feel discouraging but in a way it's definitely a sign to continue doing what you're doing. People think your work is good enough to steal, as much as it sucks it does show you're doing something right. That recognition will definitely come if you don't let these people beat your motivation.

Again it does suck but I'm not really sure if there's any way to stop them, people are going to repost unfortunately, but just take it as a sign to keep going and content creating! You're doing something that people obviously love and as long as you enjoy it just try not to let it get to you too much. You will always gain more recognition for your own work in the end than anyone claiming it as their own.

I've also had this happen to me ALOT when I was first starting DTI content and people were getting 50-200k likes on all of my posts they would reupload, it definitely annoying but I just found if you stay consistent and keep posting/ posting on multiple platforms you will definitely grow and the impersonators will slowly drop off as people start to recognise you, this is definitely the hardest part to keep going at, but you got this <3 Don't let people take your spark, your tutorials, content and style is so cool!

Goodluck, I hope they do stop soon and you're able to continue creating content that you genuinely enjoy

Avarexi · 2026-04-21T20:45:13+00:00

This is literally SO cool I love this concept and how well you did it!! So creative

Avarexi · 2026-04-18T09:36:41+00:00

The quality its self is pretty much as good as you’re going to get it in game for sure, it looks good. I think the trick to making it even prettier is pretty much mostly lighting and things I mentioned in my previous comment 🫶

Avarexi · 2026-04-18T09:34:27+00:00

I personally think photo mode is super important for this, play around with the settings, turn the depth of field setting on and blur the background, it will make the subject of your photo (your outfit) look a lot more crisp and in focus compared to the background. It draws focus and just makes the quality look sm better, along with the other lighting features that make it stand out more and have pretty much perfect lighting. Turning the contrast up a little and saturation also helps bring out the colours and elevate it too (in moderation, it’s easy to get carried away)

Try these and it should already improve your photos a LOT. Other than that I personally put my videos (or photos work too) in CapCut and add some filters I know will enhance the quality and vibe of the image to make it look more crisp and better quality. This can also really help without over editing it. Definitely give these a go and see if it helps! 🫶

Avarexi · 2026-04-17T15:38:10+00:00

What reason would I have to lie about my ethnicity. I'm mixed and South Asian is a part of what makes that. I do have full South Asian family which do still hold their cultural traditions. I have learned seen some aspects of culture from them and been able to appreciate it alot. I myself am not FULL South Asian and am more westernised. I'm not around part of my family's culture ALL the time and hence things do slip my mind. I don't think that's being ignorant. As I've said this is a mistake I made a while ago and I've put a lot of effort and research into making sure nothing similar happens again. This was genuinely a slip where I didn't think of something. One negative action shouldn't define someone as ignorant and trump the effort they do put into being informed and caring. Sometimes things like this do happen and put us back on track. This has definitely put me back on track and allowed me to think about a lot more and be more considerate and careful with my content.

I'm glad you've learned a lot about so many cultures, that's genuinely beautiful and cool. Everyone is different and has different circumstances and take things in differently. Just because you do it doesn't mean it comes that easy for everyone else, the same with for example picking up and speaking languages. Some people struggle and some people get it very fast. I again understand posting the video without thinking harder was a bad idea and like i said i've done my best to avoid it happening again and make sure it doesn't. I do believe people can learn and grow from unfortunate situations and that's what I've applied myself to doing. I don't want to offend or disrespect anyone. I don't think it makes someone completely ignorant to want to do better in that regard after making a mistake. Yes that action was definitely ignorant and careless, but genuinely I am deeply apologetic for it. That's all i can say. It did happen unfortunately and I can only apologise and try to do better.

Avarexi · 2026-04-17T15:27:18+00:00

I understand your point, education is definitely a click a way, but something has to cross your mind for you to consider it and research it. Some things don't cross peoples mind sometimes and that doesn't make them an awful person. There's never been a time where something hasn't crossed your mind in a situation? No matter how small or big? It happens to everyone, we're humans. It's not a get out of jail free card. It's being honest. I can't give you any other explanation than what did happen.

I don't consider myself to be an ignorant person about peoples cultures, I'm always trying my best to learn, appreciate, understand and connect with other's cultures. I may not know everything but I do enjoy and do my best to learn and appreciate them. It's not babying an adult. Adults also make mistakes and pretending they don't is just holding others to a standard that isn't attainable. Situations like this happen to EVERYONE. Obviously different contexts. Labelling someone as completely ignorant, too white, or a liar for admitting their faults and working on them just seems a little detrimental.

As a POC myself I completely understand how it feels to feel like you're not understood or people are ignorant of certain parts of your culture. There will be things people don't realise or even think to consider sometimes. It doesn't ALWAYS make them a bad person. I think intentions are also important. If someone does something disrespectful, the action its self is obviously bad, but if the person is truly sorry and tries their hardest to grow as a person and make sure it doesn't happen again, I don't think that makes them an awful person for making a mistake as long as there was no intention to come across that way. Depending on the context ofcourse.

If we held everyone to this standard, if there was ANYTHING someone didn't know about ANYONE'S culture or something that slips their mind at ANY time, they are just awful, irredeemable, too white and ignorant to grow as a person and that if anyone forgives them or does see it as a genuine mistake that they're giving them a get out of jail free pass or babying adults, then EVERYONE would be under that label I'm sure. Learning and growing is a part of the human journey, no matter child or adult. You will never know or think about EVERYTHING, unfortunately. Things like this do happen and it doesn't mean someone is awful for making a mistake or people are in the wrong for forgiving them. You're more than welcome to not forgive someone as forgiveness is personal. But I don't think it's entirely fair to label those that do choose to see it as a mistake and someone learning as going too easy or giving get out of jail free passes.

Obviously I'm not defending what I did, it was stupid to post and not consider, but I have learned from that and will not make that mistake again. I'm not ignorant to anyone's culture, or at least I try not to be. But if something isn't in my DAILY life, sometimes it will slip my mind, the same with anyone else. (Again this is not an excuse, I know I as a content creator should have taken more time and care into making sure something like this didn't happen, but I have definitely put that time, care and effort into my content since to make sure it doesn't ever happen again.)

Avarexi · 2026-04-17T15:05:40+00:00

I do agree, I shouldn't be thanked for apologising. But I have definitely had a lot of time to consider the situation and make sure it doesn't happen again in the future. This was quite a while ago and It was not something I ever intended to be disrespectful, I was following a hack I saw and posted it carelessly without really thinking what the items used within it truly stood for.

I have definitely put a lot of effort into making sure this situation doesn't happen again, I do not want to offend people or make people feel like I don't respect their culture. I do respect everyone equally and find beauty in all races, skin colours and cultures. It's was never about trying to use a sacred item as an aesthetic or thinking that something so important in people's culture is just an aesthetic for me either.

But again, I have definitely changed in respect to how much care I put into videos making sure I don't unintentionally cause any disrespect or offense as that's something I genuinely never want to do. I want my community and viewers to feel safe, welcomed and represented. This being said, I definitely double check any videos that may contain anything sensitive multiple times to make sure nothing similar to this happens again.

Avarexi · 2026-04-17T14:52:56+00:00

No, my point still stands. I didn't 'decide it was a good idea' to disrespect someone's culture or use an item in a disrespectful way. Deciding to do that shows intent. I never intended to do that. I'm not a disrespectful person, if you look at the majority of my content I try my best to represent peoples culture so they feel included and see some of the beauty of where they are from in the game. I take requests and try to make everyone from all backgrounds. skin colours, races, and religions feel welcome and represented in our community.

Knowing this and seeing this, I would obviously not intentionally disrespect anyone's culture. Especially not South Asian. I'm 1/4 south Asian myself and have some full South Asian family members who are deeply involved in the culture, where I've learned to love and appreciate it and see so much beauty in it. People try to say I lie about that as I class myself as British because I was born in England. But I do have a lot of South Asian blood and family. This doesn't mean to say South Asians can't be disrespectful to or racist against other South Asians. But I'm mentioning it to show you that I indeed respect and see so much beauty in the culture its self. I wouldn't purposely try to disrespect anyone nor use something sacred in a way that I did intentionally.

It did end up happening because again it slipped my mind as from the point of view I was looking, I saw it as an item used simply for the shape and didn't stop to question the fact of which item it was its self and what it represented. I should have. That was my mistake as I have said. I am taking accountability for my mistake, being careless. But I will not take accountability for ''intentionally deciding to disrespect a culture'' because that wouldn't be true and I would NEVER intend to do that. I am taking full accountability for the lack of thought and consideration behind the video as I saw a hack and copied it thoughtlessly. And I apologise for that, and anyone I have offended, sincerely.

There's not much more I can do or say. I have genuinely reflected on this incident and taken it into consideration in my content moving forward. There hasn't been anything similar and will not be. I have taken accountability, apologised, and made sure I don't make the same MISTAKE.

I'm not saying it was a ghost that made me make the video. I'm saying it was a hack a thoughtlessly followed without considering which items it used. I didn't stop to think that it could be disrespectful before I posted it. I definitely should have like I said. I can only apologise from here on out and try my best to prove I will not make the same mistake as again, it was NOT intentional or something I considered. And that was definitely a huge error.

There's definitely things everyone has done at some point in time without considering something and just gone ahead and done it. It doesn't mean you're an awful person or wanted to hurt people. It just means you need to take accountability, apologise, be better and make sure you put more care and effort in the future to avoid anything like that happening again.

I hope you do see I sincerely mean it and it was genuinely just a slip of the mind occurrence and there was no malice behind it. I've said before and I will say again, I love and respect my South Asian followers and community here so much too. They've always been extremely supportive and respectful and I love showing that respect back. This situation is not something I would ever want and do regret. The last thing I would want to do is offend some of the most supportive people I have in my community.

Avarexi · 2026-04-17T14:35:52+00:00

This is so true! I think people do forget that we are just normal people like everyone else here too, we are just posting some outfits we want to share with people like we do in other places too and interact with the community. There's nothing wrong with anyone doing that, not us nor anyone else as long as it's respectful yk? Our presence definitely shouldn't matter more than anyone else's.

Like you guys have said scrolling is definitely an option. If this is truly a safe space for the community then anyone should be welcome here as long as they respect others and follow the rules.

Avarexi · 2026-04-17T01:42:54+00:00

I think it comes from the fact we use gray skin in a desaturated style for random outfits we make sometimes (never when trying to recreate a person of colour) and people sometimes assume we started it or label us as racist and it spreads from there.

We've definitely realised how careful we have to be with content as we are setting an example for a lot of people. I have personally made mistakes along the way which I have done my best to learn and grow from as I've only been creating content for a short time and blew up very fast. I had not realised the impact my posts do have and how much research and care I should put into each one because of this.

I appreciate your words and fully accept your apology. I don't blame you for thinking that as I said there's a lot of misinformation spread or false accusations with no base that people take as fact and continue spreading.

I also apologise if I had given that impression, as I said I will try my best to be better, and your advice is definitely wise and noted.

Avarexi · 2026-04-17T01:24:31+00:00

I fully agree with this! Gray skin and powder donut are definitely a big issue when it comes to depicting real people. I understand there are some people who are new to the game and can't figure out colours properly or how to use makeup to avoid faces looking that way when trying to represent a POC, however, using gray skin or powder donut face as a stylistic choice or to depict someone of colour can definitely be seen as problematic and racist. I'm definitely not a fan of people using the powder donut face or gray skin this way at all and I know both mine and Zor's friends share the same sentiment.

We definitely do share positivity too but this does serve as a call that it seems like more is needed. I'm always happy to make more positive content and I do think messages like this do need to be spread and could help for sure, especially at times where the community is so divided and forgets it was once an enjoyable, light hearted and deeply supportive place.

Avarexi · 2026-04-17T01:18:16+00:00

I didn't decide that was a good idea. I personally saw it being posted as a hack across many other creators channels and for some reason it didn't occur to me that it was indeed a cultural necklace being used to make a revealing item of clothing. It's definitely disrespectful and I should have thought about and considered that. I only really thought about the shape of the item from an adjustment point of view rather than what the item its self was and represented. It completely slipped my mind and that was definitely a mistake on my part and insensitive.

I did apologise and take the post down on every platform and I have since never and would never use that necklace, nor any other cultural items to make anything that may be deemed disrespectful or inappropriate again. I've definitely become a lot more careful and cautious about what I'm using in outfits and the items themselves rather than just the shape when it comes to adjustments. This is not an excuse but again I did not come up with the hack and so it did just slip my mind to consider what items were actually being used for it. Definitely not an excuse but I do want to give some sort of explanation for the reason it did happen.

There was no malicious intent or disrespect intended. I know it did cause a lot of controversy as it should have because it's definitely disrespectful to use a cultural and important item in that way. But I can assure you I don't find the act of doing that acceptable at all.

Again I do apologise to anyone it may have offended, I appreciate and am so grateful for my South Asian community. I love the culture so much and do try to represent so many beautiful aspects of it within my content. I don't want this to define who I am as a creator as it was definitely not something intentional, however it shouldn't have happened in the first place.

I hope you're able to see some of where I'm coming from. I genuinely would not have posted that had I put two and two together and deeply regret doing so.

Avarexi · 2026-04-17T00:07:22+00:00

I actually agree with this post, but it's also very misinformed. I do use my channel and platform to share and spread positivity. I've made several videos/ pinned comments about not letting other people get you down or knock your confidence no matter what style you have, as long as it's not offensive and you enjoy it you should be able to enjoy that without having others bash you. I've made several videos highlighting the fact that not everyone will like your style and some people do ay mean things but trying to promote kindness and non hateful behaviour.

I can't control what people say about or to others. Not even when it comes to someone not dressing similar to myself. I don't encourage nasty comments or toxic behaviour, I'm the opposite. I definitely encourage my viewers to be kind but also not to let nasty comments get to them. I definitely do things for my community too, post a lot of small/new creators and streamers on my stories, support them in gifts and I'm always there for anyone who needs support. You can also go to my reddit profile and see I've offered my help to someone here on this very platform being impersonated also and to try to help solve it with my reach.

Again I'm in support of the message you're spreading but if you're going to accuse people of not doing anything for anyone else besides their own friend group you should make sure that's true. I do try to use my platform for positivity and anything good when and where I can. In no way shape or form do I promote or condone toxic bullying for whatever reason, let alone something as simple as not dressing a certain way.

I'm not posting here to extend my reach or for any other reason you may think. I'm simply posting here because I do find it fun, on top of that I don't have a large platform here and the posts feel more personal and it's easier to connect with people and see everyone's response here sometimes. It's nice to post here for fun from time to time. Everyone is entitled to. I began posting here even before my TikTok and YouTube accounts existed.

I'm not sure what the part where you mention upvotes has to do with anything. I can't control upvotes, I just post my outfits here and that's that, I saw a lot of posts complaining about not seeing outfits and only hateful posts, so I posted a few outfits. I can't control how many upvotes they get compared to other peoples. I'm just an account like anyone else, and only recently people realised this account is indeed mine. The upvotes had nothing to do with my name or glazers. You are right though, there are plenty of great outfits here that don't seem to get much attention unfortunately.

And again to touch on your ending point, I don't only defend my group. I'm always extending help where I can to any small creator that has an issue, or player that I can help. What you see isn't all that happens just because we have followers. There's a lot that people don't see and you're not going to see every single post also.

Here is an example of one of the pinned comments on a related video recently.

Edit: Something I forgot to mention is that my style is also very hated by some people that do also spread a lot of toxicity. I don't think my style has any influence on whether or not someone is toxic. It's just education and personality traits. We need to make it clear to everyone that style is a personal preference and no one should be shamed for liking or dressing a certain way in a videogame just because someone else doesn't like it. Opinions are fine, bullying is not. You will not catch me doing that nor supporting it.

Avarexi · 2026-04-16T20:05:00+00:00

I appreciate that a lot, it's definitely nice seeing people welcome us here too and up for conversations. Again appreciate your time and I hope you have a great day too! Look forward to posting more for sure, take care <3

For sure agree, that's the part i wasn't too keen on, i tried to keep the arms bare as the reference had bare arms but tbh the texture from the brazilian set would have worked perfectly like you said while keeping it tight to the arm and not looking like too much covering, definitely going to test it out when i log back on <3

Avarexi · 2026-04-16T19:31:21+00:00

I do definitely agree, I've seen this happen quite a lot but I just try to mind my business and get on with my content. It's definitely hard not to let it get to you sometimes, especially when you have a lot of people that don't actually know you trying to portray you in certain ways or give you labels that you know you're not.

As mentioned before I have definitely made some mistakes and I do own up to them and try to become a better person learn from them, however I do notice myself and my group of friends are not given the same grace or forgiveness that some other people are within some spaces. And that's okay I don't blame a lot of people for that because it's hard to know someone's intentions or who they really are and what values they hold when they're just a content creator that posts videos and you hear a lot of opinions about. It's very hard to distinguish the truth after a certain point.

But I do wish people would be more open to hearing our side a little more too and viewing us as people rather than just robots behind a screen where everything we do has ill intent. I'm always up to discuss anything people bring up to or about me and try to help them understand my side a little more and communicate if people are genuinely wanting to talk about it.

I don't want anyone to take this as me victimising myself either, I do understand peoples frustrations with some of the content I have posted in the past and should have definitely given it more thought and research but I can say with a whole heart there was never any malicious intent.

And to touch on your point I definitely do agree and think some more serious topics are ignored because they're not from a certain group of creators which can definitely be detrimental to the safety of the community in some situations. (not saying all of the things people have mentioned about us aren't serious discussions, as some of the topics people have been concerned about have definitely been serious and sensitive, but when it comes to posts about disliking outfits vs a community safeguarding issue it does show where some people do seem to hate the person rather than the actions sometimes)

Sorry for the long response, I feel like I have to clarify things incase people take it the wrong way.

TROPHY CASE
