Neat! Okay, I'm in. It's a bit busty and feminine for my Abs, and I really ought to have altered the image to make it a Knave not Queen, but here goes.

Did I miss an option? Where are you folks finding the stuff like the swords/books/birds in your hands?
Never mind, found it. There were screens of options I could only see by clicking the arrows, they weren't visible from the top icons displayed. So, "User Error".
{edit: because I missed a UI element, nothing more important than that.}

Bah, I tried making one for Parelle, but there isn't a chignon. And let's be honest, her hair is always up or else.

Ooh, how fun! I like the playing card as well. Dear Vivi would love to be the Queen of Exquisite Champagne, but Hearts will do nicely as well.
If I had more time right now, I'd add a lot more freckles, but that can wait. My thanks to Lamia and Parelle for sharing.

Parelle, there is, it's just on the second page of hairstyles. You need to click the left and right arrows on the side of the card. (Yes, it is a confusing design, and I didn't see all the options at first either.)

If you hit the arrows rather than the icons you can get to a second page of hair-styles. There's a a combo of them you can do that gets close to a chignon -- though you either have to go a bit lower on your neck or use a snood to get it to look right.

Are you looking for something like this?

I tried having a go at your character, apologies for errors XD
If you do it yourself, you can pick a hairstyle later on, then go back and click on the default, which erase it and replaces it with the new one

Very, very, close! A Grey Respectable Gown with a bit more flair and more jewelry, but the hair, eyes, and face are all but right I was thinking of the tea cup rather than the book but decided for the latter.

Thanks for the tips on how to find the "up" hair page and the "things to hold in your hand" page.

Wow, I came back and the thread exploded with suits. They all look so pretty and unique.
I couldn't resist doing two more.

Here's Valencia in high spirits. Sadly they don't have the right faded brown for Glass Doll, so I don't have a look for her I like as much.

Thank you! Your use of colors is lovely. For some reason this makes me imagine your character on the Surface, enjoying an outdoor drink in France.
I brought the thread another doll maker. Sci fi warrior! There's one for male characters, too.

Oooh, nice! Here's my sexy Midnighter doing irrigo things in her Royal Beth Suite:

(also, Morkan: imagine the plane being a dirigible)

It seems like your purple robe has a very large hole to the left. And there is a plane (which you didn't tell us to ignore or pretend to be something else).

This sci-fi doll maker has a few better options than others. I liked this.... I say as I still manage to make this doll look plain.

I'm sure if you imagine frames about the background than it looks like she's in the Mirror Marches. [/spoiler]

Thanks for posting the additional tool! I quite like the hair and choker options on this one.
