I would really, really like to finally jump on the personal avatar bandwagon and make me a nice little Uncle Yuan. The problem is that he is unusual enough in his look that no mesh I've found fits. I've found some that I could make do with, but nothing that really grabs me.
So, here's what I need to make this a reality.
Uncle Yuan is a short, elderly Chinese man, dressed in a rather worn brown suit, carries a short staff/tall cane (MM's sticky thingie minus the eagle is perfect) and has a large "handbag" slung over his shoulder. (The handbag is optional.)
(Most of my avatars to date picture UY as bald and wearing something approximating monk's robes. While I am not adverse to this depiction, it is not how I originally designed the character.)
If something like this already exists as a mesh, that's great - direct me to it and I'll start begging for a skin.
Any help down this road would be greatly appreciated!!
Sorry, UY. I am still working on this fellow:

Progress has been halted by RL and the filling of previous meshing requests. Yes (to answer a previous question in your earlier thread), I can make the staff shorter. I have also begun work on the braided beard. If you can recruit a skinner with actual talent (as opposed to moi), I would be happy to send the finished mesh his way. Sorry to keep you waiting.

Phantom Bunburyist and Fop o' th' Morning
Well, there it is, folks. My nearly complete mesh! :) (The Meez is nearly perfect, by the way The only thing I would change on that is to make the pants longer and the staff a titch taller - like shoulder height.)
Is there "a skinner with actual talent" out there willing to tag-team with the good Bunburyist?
And, ow_tiobe_sb, now that the staff question is answered, would it be difficult to make him a little shorter than the average character? Not Puck short, but maybe a good head shorter than most others?
