Stormshade 2.0 Costume Contest ...

Archived PostArchived Post Posts: 1,156,071 Arc User
edited March 2010 in Costumes and Concepts
Ok designers. We've been called out. Stormshade our new point man is wondering around in this hideous toon:
http://champions-online.com/character_profiles/2227894/view

(no offense Stormy)

We need to get him some new threads and fast! Post your ideas in here by Friday, February 19th. We'll compile all the results and then decide as a group which costume he should use that best represents what the CO creator can do.

Here are the details we know so far:

- He'll have the Cryptic logo on the front. Not sure if the shirt comes with the logo so consider that.
- He's darkness/electricity
- His bio reads: "Stormshade is the Online Community Representative for Champions Online with Cryptic Studios. "

That's it ... enjoy!

    I would say from this link the chances are pretty high it's part of the shirt. And the Cryptic color scheme seems pretty set on black and blue. Not sure if we should keep with that color scheme or not.

    You are correct.

    The logo is not available in the creator for obvious reasons.

    Aside from the logo the only unique pieces my current costume uses are Defender's gloves and boots.

    Note, I won't have the Logo or access to anything other than what you guys make for me. So please don't plan on my being able to get these onto the costume.

    Finally, while not the best, here's an in-game picture of my current costume (Which I actually made myself):

    I vote more reds/orange since the Champions Online logo has those colors.

    Stormshade sounds more like an elemental to me. So I took that and ran. I made a few of them to see how it would look in slightly different styles.

    Mmmm, so so far all you got is one of those guys from Big Trouble in little China - man sooo old already, seen so many of those chumps in the field, and personally that look only works when your in a tri imo - oh and a badguy trio at that - lets get away from that whole mortal combat vibe pls pls pls.

    I think your current outfit is prety good Stormshade, its good that your keeping away from looking to WoW, Ill see what our chief armourer and buildmasters can suggest for you, any preferences genre wise? Silver age, Golden age? Silverstri age? Neoretro, GlamSoc? Personaly I think you could do far worse than some nice Kirby/Romita jnr speed stripes and a tight fitting venture suit, throw in some goggles and your golden.

    Goodluck everyone

    I went with a little more simple design that really shows well when Shadow Form is active. I tried to go for the less is more approach of a wizened wanderer. No use showing your true power until you need to.

    Staying simplistic, yet unique, the concept sis based on striking fear into your enemy from the moment they lay eyes on you. Survivors should remember you long after you are gone. I would set my electrical power to a violet color adding to the effects of the costume. Chest emblem is to show the place where the Cryptic Logo is to go.

    You can use the defender gloves and boots in place of the Serpent style I show. Just color to match.

    I thought I'd give it a shot and provide my take on what Stormshade would look like.

    The name reminds me of a certain G.I. Joe character so I went with a possessed swordsman. Part of his body is consumed by a demonic spirit. This entity gives him access to supernatural powers (dark/electricity) which come from his left hand. It works well with Single Blade as the right (Unpossessed) hand is used for weapon attacks.

    Put links to some action shots to help showcase the concept more:

    Wait I'm a little confused...

    I thought we can completely revamp his costume if we want; do we have to keep the hat??? We need to show what the CO character creater can do right?

    My real profesion is graphic design and illustration + I'm a female and I say that hat makes him look dumb; no offence.

    I'm thinking he needs to look cool, hot, and rich aside from the super hero part. He needs to be the ultimate man. Not just superhero, but attractive to us ladies while still remaining bad a**.

    But then again, I think most superhero's look really dumb. Batman was really the only cool, hot, rich ultimate super hero. IMO.

    But if the hat has to stay; please clarify. The best designers can make even the ugly things pretty; and it would present more of a challenge. And since I'm trapped in my house from blizzard after blizzard with my fiance driving me insane, I do need a design challenge thats fun. I don't have any real design work to do right now. =p

    It's the hat man. It was easy to fixate on that because it stands out from the generic Crypic Dev suit as being the most defining thing about his costume.

    Here's my attempt (and, yeah... I did keep the hat. It's just too awesome. :D )

    Character creator save: http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm211/RandomChance42/Champions%20Online%20Screenshots/Costume_RandomChance42_ss-concept_C.jpg

    Character select (with higher graphics options) http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm211/RandomChance42/Champions%20Online%20Screenshots/ss-higherquality.jpg

    I also threw it on the PTS to see how it'd look with assorted energy forms. I don't know how feasible it'd be for actual in-game play, but Shadow form with Electric Sheath activated at the same time looked pretty nifty.

    Guess I'll try my hand at this.

    I wanted to retain the hat and the sorta "mysticism" feel I was getting out of it. Combined it with a little tech to help channel that inherent charge you're running, Stormshade. Cryptic emblem goes into where the "C" is.

    Character creator screenshot attached.

    You can try anything you want. In fact I personally recommend making costumes without the hat to vary up the possibilities. We've already got some outstanding choices with the hat already. It'll be easier to stand out with out it.

    I'd like to see some of the following types of toon versions:

    - Furry (he, he)
    - Giant Monster
    - Machine/Robot
    - Cyborg
    - Vampire/Zombie/Gladiator/Reptile
    - Kid
    - Deity
    - Mythological type toon (Think Zeus or Mercury)
    - Golden age (my personal favorite)
    - Militaristic

    Well I went with the CO logo colors. The screenshots came out darker then I made him, but he has red lighting on the top and yellow/orange on the bottom. While he isn't quite a cyborg, he does have a robotic hand and leg. I played with the glow effects too. I wanted to try to show the abilites with the character creater by making his parts asymetric. I also left the cape blank incase you wanted to put the cryptic logo on it.

    Oh and there is a glitch in the creater. His left foot is supposed to be leather, but it got stuck as metal.

    Update:

    I made some alts some with the blue color and some with the logo colors. I made a cyber demon. The demon aspect is supposed to represent the darkness while the electricity is part of his robotic aspect.

    This is just a conception based on my impression of the original costume, as opposed to the more original re-interpretations offered. Orangish-yellow electric attacks, and bluish-almost purple darkness attacks are what I imagined starting with for power colors.

    That's not a problem. The PTS server has its own folder to save the costumes into but since you posted the save file we can do what we want with it.

    I just meant in relation to some specific costume loading bugs. Some still exist on the current PTS build (in the process of being eliminated on the internal build that will be heading to PTS next), and Live might have problems loading some costumes that don't cause problems even on the current PTS build (I just didn't check before heading off to sleep).

    I was going to the PTS Tailor and found i could make a Cryptic Corps Clone Logo one of my toons has the Defender Boot shin guards but i could not get another PTS slot for the concept.


    The Concept Would be like a Home and Away Sport Team Uniform as Cryptic Corps is a SG [of GMs]
    Now its like the official Military standard look.? one selected by the boss..

    The Cryptic Orange and Yellow alt logo idea like the Champions Lettering on the Exclusive boxed ed is nice.
    Maybe if you had an ATARI Cape Broach pin?

    So I present to you Dr.Sorrow. [a nemesis w a straw hat..]
    Here's on a minor Gender switch and your in? [darn static cling coat clipping.arrr]

    So do you have any preferences Stormy? Keep the straw hat or not? Certain colors preferred? We may be making all these costumes, but honestly it's your character that you have to stare at for 40 levels.

    Do you have a bio or background you thought of for the character? Possible examples might be.

    Lightning struck like a judgement from on high and the poor soul who had once inhabited the body no longer had control. Stormshade was born that day, little is known of his past, or his reason for being here. He feels compelled to fight crime without knowing the reason why, just the need to do so.

    vs

    Young Jimmy Shade always was a weak child, his nervous system suffering from a debilitating disorder that didn't allow his nerves to respond as quickly as other peoples. His parents being famous super heroes got the assistance from their allies and tried an untested procedure to install nanites to boost his nervous system. Not only did it work, but it gave him powers beyond his imagination, the nanites not only jump started his nervous system but accelerated it to allow him to project electricity. The process also awakened his natural mutation inherited from his father to create and manipulate darkness. Now under the banner of Stormshade he fights for whats right just like his parents do.

    Either of these would likely have very different costumes they'd use.

    Hey thought I'd post up my effort.

    I chose to stick to the Cryptic black blue and white but changed some of the shades. I still wanted him to gel well with other members of the Cryptic Team. I ditched the straw hat because although kinda cool I felt it just didn't fit.

    What do u guys think?

    More info would help, Stormy McStormStorm.

    Also, we'll narrow the candidates down for you and let you choose the best one.

    Ok, more info...

    So a little about me... I like the clean "classic cool" look when it comes to characters. I tend to go with solid colors, with not too many mixed colors when I'm making my characters.

    Also, since this is the costume I'll become known by in-game, it shouldn't be too scary. I know it sounds silly, but since I'm your OCR, I want to look approachable in game, much like I would if we met at a convention like PAX or E3. So, for my purposes, I would prefer a costume that isn't "scary". Also, my favorite color is blue (Which is part of the reason why I like my current costume).

    So, here's a couple of ones that stood out to me for different reasons (Note: I really like both of these. Don't get me wrong, everything that's been submitted is awesome so far, and I'm not just saying that because I have to.)

    This one is pretty close to what I have now, while still offering some new looks, and I love the cape on it too. The wizard look is always a good one imo, but it seems to lack some symmetry for some reason. It's an awesome costume though, and I'd wear it with pride! :cool:

    Then there is this one, which is simply amazing. That said, If I had that costume on and was wandering around a convention, I'd probably scare babies. In my situation, that's probably a bad thing. ;)

    I really do like all of the costumes you guys have made so far though, they're simply astounding, and I think it's a testament to what you guys can do with the character creator and is pretty darned awesome! I can't wait to see what you guys narrow it down to! :D

    Okay I have one I just did. Going for a techmage kinda feel. One that projects authority but not fear.

    Thanks Storm and Adogg for the honorable mention. Even though, my entry is outside of the new criteria, I'm glad you guys got some enjoyment from it (at the expense of the children no less ;) )

    If you want clean lines, blue colors, and a classic hero look, then I'd like to donate my design for my hero Knighthawk.

    Here, take a look! Two shades of blue, a little black and white, nice heroic design.

    Feel free to modify it a bit, I used a helmet since my character was a Race biker who gained super speed, so his costume and helmet reflect a biker image.

    You can also get a nice view of him from his Character page, Here.

    Here are my contributions. I tried to keep the costumes/themes varied with a conscious effort to veer away from the flavour of previous submissions.

    (They're just screen dumps from the Costume Creator with the character located on the far right of the image)
    Stormshade0: A variation on the existing costume since there are so many people that have kept the straw hat I figured I'd give it a go as well.

    Stormshade1: My take on a reflection of Stormshade's darkness powers. I think it may fall into the 'scary' category!

    Stormshade2: I tried for something a little more classic here.

    Stormshade3: Since Stormshade is trying to be a magician in fixing the forums, I figured he should have a costume to match. Work your magic matey.

    Stormshade4: Another variation on trying to incorporate darkness & electricity powers on a costume. Again, probably falls into the 'scary' category.

    Stormshade5: Was trying for something that had some a bit of the "Champions Online" logo colours in it. (No white, I know).

    Stormshade6_1: Something with a tech focus.
    Stormshade6_2: Just a colour variation on the one above - I couldn't decide on which one I liked more.

    Stormshade7: Stormshade, the people's hero, Community Representative and CO Forum God?



    Nexus: Nice, I like what you did there.
