Costume Creation Help - Mecha Girl

Hi everyone!

I am having a real hard time with coming up with costumes for my toon. A little background. She is a teenage school girl who, due to unusual circumstances, finds herself 100 ft tall. In order to live a normal live she is forced to wear armor/gadgets to maintain a normal height. She mainly uses might powers and she was raised on a military/research base.

Below is a template of her body type.

Any help in making a costume that would be perfect for her will be greatly appreciated.

Pretty much a mix of armor and clothing or full on power suit or mech style costumes.


Thanks again in advance!

    Sure. I am a guy that plays a female archer simply because I find archery more fitting for females ever since the hunger games. So, I do not really like tights so I went ahead and created a school girl costume (kinda risqu

    If you want someone to use the costume file, you should use like Photobucket to share the picture. Like Tinypic, some change the file name and doing so, mess up all the body/costume info for Character Creator to use.
    The file name should match to the one in the CO screenshot folder.

    Call me crazy, but I actually like the original costume you have.

    I agree the initial costume is pretty good. Some changes I might make:

    1) I would probably swap the bracers for something more tech looking (these are supposed to be growth power inhibiting, not just big shackle things. Maybe Scifi Device on right and Scifi Bracer on left, with inlay pattern glowing. The device one then could represent controls to disable the size inhiniting.

    2) I would also consider throwing in the headwear headset to represent monitoring and communication with the research/military handlers that equip / raised her.

    Yeah. This is a very nice costume. Aside of tweaking details, there is no real need for changing it

    flyingfinn - Didn't realize tinypic renamed the file. Thanks for pointing that out. Re-uploaded to Photobucket.

    novaninja555 - Thank you for those costumes. I got a few ideas from them and will be incorporating them in the future!

    serpinecoh - Sadly since I am using the Jacket Body type it does not allow all bracers to be used. Cannot use the Sci-Fi ones with the jacket. :( I will mess with some headwear to add a headset and maybe a helmet to her. It woulld really fit with her theme.


    meedacthunist - I'll mess with the original costume a bit but, I have no idea how to modify it since the Jacket Body type limits the bracers and gloves you could wear. :/

    I am glad a lot of people enjoyed the costume I posted. :D

    Let me just say I already liked your costume and your concept. I don't work well with templates so I did this from scratch based off your concept - I don't think it's as good as yours, but it's a bit of something different. Anyway, here's my take ;)
