I must say that this toon is hardly my favorite anf often played. It was made when the Unleashed AT was introduced, but I never liked it enough to play even to 20 lvl. Same was when it was freeform.
But I do like her costume and how it turned out. From proportions to arms and armor.
It's always sad when you have a great costume, but the build/concept does not excite.
I create Tyro, Lord of Soderfjord, as a back before they had created The Devastator hoping he wound swing a huge hammer as my old Tyro did when I played TT D&D in the '80s. All I could chose for him at the time was The Behemoth and it did not feel right.
Even though it seem wrong for the costume, I re-made him as a Glacier and had a blast using him that way. I did a little re-write in his Bio explaining that his magical gear began to fail him and that he turned to Witchcraft for help and how she was able to combine the magic from one of his rings with his mighty looking hammer that now allowed him access to the plane of Ice Elementals and that they would willing do his bidding in the name of justice etc.
Or something like that. ;-)
If you really like a costume, there are always ways to make it work with another concept. All you need do is get creative with a bio. Or skip the bio all together and just have fun playing as a Giant Gorilla that is using The Inferno because you think a Giant Gorilla looks cool and you really enjoy The Inferno.
Will never work with this toon, because it's character concept closely linked with use of blades and a name that makes it not very RPable. And without bronze blades it's no longer the same concept, neither name makes sense.
Not a big problem overall, since making quality costumes isn't too difficult for me. So one not being used very often is hardly a tragedy.

Nephilim thing I made for a cc with Aeolus. It's 5x as impressive when you see us standing next to one another, since every single little detail (up to and including cracked pieces and where we had the blades) was reversed.
Pulsar's anime look.
The Black Mamba. Cat burglar extraordinaire, and marginally a hero.

This is what happens when you tell me to make a my little pony. Robofluttershy was a go. The costume file doesn't do this thing justice, he actually has a snout, and is flat out uncanny when I put him in bestial huge stance.
Gender bent cc for the champions heroes. I chose Juryrig.

Batpool, Spider-Bat - who else can we mash Bats up with?

Been awhile since I came up with a decent costume so think I'll share one of the most recent ones I made. Here is my attempt to making a nemesis that was transformed into this half machine, half magic golem being after a explosion in my hero's lab.

I actually got the idea of a bat mashup from you. I don't play him, but he came about as a part of an SG we were making that hallmarked stuff like RedBlackers, Awful clones, and such. I almost made "Captain Chest Slider", but even I couldn't rock that costume.
I'll have to take some actual screenies of some of my costumes, I haven't bothered yet because I'd have to edit em, and I have yet to install my copy of photoshop on this computer.

yes a TRON inspired char
All those lines go great in Caprice. Caprice's disco floor could use an update, ugh.
Its that nicotine stains or what?
Oh and here's the BEST costume in the whole game.
I seem to get more compliments on Silver Sentinel than any of my other characters. He's loosely based on Astro City's Silver Agent.
And I gotta chime in with praise for this one too. I think it's the simplicity and the contrast that does it. He's got a very distinctive silhouette that I don't think would get "lost" in all the power effects and combat going on. You can spot this guy and tell exactly who he is much faster than many other character designs.
Not quite. The proportion ratios on that took me like 4 hours. You have to be minimum height, and shrink your legs and arms down to chibi proportions. I'm normally nearly as small as people with super shrinkers on, with that costume, if they're 7 feet tall normally. They come up to about mid chest or so.
It's just a super shrinker, and a LOT of slider work.
After I resub, I'll share the template for it in here. I'd love to see what people do with it.

I'm not that great when it comes to costumes, alhtough I did make this based on an ice archetype, rp-wise she's a human with an ice elemental within her ( yada yada )

Many of us are not nearly as skilled as costume design. I'm sure someone who uses this board will bring her to life again, in one form or another.

REALLY like these two. Particularly Ebon Widow. I think I've seen her in-game recently - perhaps even teamed in an alert with her.

Not exactly sane alien bounty hunter, pardon, "freelance peace-keeping agent" currently employed by PRIMUS.
This costume was on purpose made to be painful for eyes and to reflect her personality.

So many heroes push the limit on the grow effects, but I love that you can really get as small as a AF.
Now if we could just go fight some bad guys under a micro-scope or at the sub-atomic level...
btw - What all did you do to get so tiny? Also, before adding "effects," what is your hero's height?
To get to around AF height you should be somewhere around 6ft. Then it's as easy as turning on your Super Shrinker.
It's just a super shrinker, and a LOT of slider work.

Deliciously nutritious!
Thats not a HUGE power button on the front of the suit is it? Id think that would be a pretty serious design flaw
Design flaw aside, its an awesome costume :biggrin:
