Problem with a Costume

Archived PostArchived Post Posts: 1,156,071 Arc User
edited April 2010 in Costumes and Concepts
Well today i found myself in an interesting predicament, I have used LadyBloodRose or BloodRose as a name for pretty much everything, hotmail, other game accounts, etc etc. But i realized I have yet to create any character with the name. The problem is, I am having an extreme artist block on any theme/look that could embody my forum name. So i ask you all out there if you could possible share some of your ideas and maybe some of your ideas might inspire me. :D (character would naturally be female :p)

Thank you in advance for your ideas and help! I don't usually have this problem lol. :o

    Hmm

    I really see a long skirt (the one I am thinking about is the long skirt with the slits up the side, it has some nice graphics on there, I would pick one of the vine patterns)

    Other than that, the chest pieces have some nice tops in there, I often use them for females since the tights doesn't seem to fit when I am trying to make a dress.

    Here's quikie Bloodrose. Took colors from your avatar and tried to find some rosey patterns with blood and thorns...
    (Seems Bloodrose is restricted name...)

    Eh. There are some obligatory names that shouldn't be restricted. Arsenal, for example. What would YOU call a hero who can manifest any kind of weapon available in this game at will?

    well armed?

    so I went ahead and took a stab at it Veruca already took it to the Goth mistress archtype and did a good job, so I went for somewhere else totally. The first one is kind of a swashbuckler concept not sure why but that is what Bludrose sounded to me like then I thought "Lady" that sounds like a noble title so I went for a Mage Knight and then I thought what the hey both of those concepts would depend heavily on melee and it sucks right now so I went for a ranged damage dealer type

    Bludrose

    Lady BludRose

    Rose Lightning

    I took a crack at this too!

    This is what I came up with having no idea about powers and whatnot, just that it must fit the name Bloodrose or some such variant.

    First,a cowled, thorny look in tights.

    Cape

    Second, a more lady-like look.

    Last but not least, a sexier look.

    I agree on the restricted names. Harlequin isn't allowed, but Harley Quin is >.<

    An an only semi-related note, while designing these I was listening to a band called Rose Funeral :p

    I'd made something like this for a swamp elf type character -- adapted it to a female for you. A name like Bloodrose just screams out for the new vine set. Would work well with the new infernal supernatural tree coming out, lots of toxins, etc.

    Mucked with it a little more. More aggressive on the glow, black base instead of dark green, added a collar thing that works with the headgear. Think this is better. You could go with the little fanged vine mouths instead of the cape on the back, but I thought you needed something representing the actual flower of the rose.
