Comrade Hero

He's still working on it...

You have my vote!

Very nice work on this LJ - most impressive

Don't make me hurt you with a Tactical Belt Spanking!

I'm telling you, she's reaching for his Tactical Belt...

Really nice - I particularly love Kim Paler - that's one tasty looking femme fatale

I'll be in my bunk... I mean fantastic piece!

Ooo... very nice! and Dead West, that's a great name - what's the story behind this gunslinger?

Very nice piece, that's one fighting fit family

Stay Tuned True Believers! War Bride is next!

And send a PM to Jet Amago via his deviantArt site (click on Comrade Hero commission link above) and mention the Comic Covers he's done for me.

Okay, Comrade Hero does not hang "tackle out" for lack of a better term.

He wears a sheath... err a body conforming tactical suit of unstable molecules. So unlike Invincibelle he never needs to worry about exposure. Of course if his concentration slips, he might find himself in a bit of a pickle...

Very cool piece, it does indeed look like a still from a Comrade Hero cartoon.

...from what exactly was Comrade Hero saving the scientist...?

For some reason, the first thing that came to mind was an segment of Heavy Metal.....

The nice thing about his situation is poor Comrade Hero won't be able to yank anything off the Rikti for her to wear. Will he be a gentlemen an remove his clothing for her modesty?

Great piece, congrats to Comrade Hero.

Considering Comrade Hero's costume is composed of unstable molecules and is "projected" as a side effect of the cosmic energies running through his mutant bodies, I don't think he could pull any clothing off

Thanks for the kind words

Comrade Hero is a hero of like 5 years. He's almost twice the age of most heroes, and has a lot less experience. Be interesting to see how he would handle having to be put under the leadership/mentorship of a hero old enough to be his son or daughter but is a veteran hero already.

I'm exploring that dynamic in the Screen Writing Course as part of Diploma of Creative Writing.

Joyous Day to You!

You're more than welcome Wes

heh originality aside, you still determined your character before ya played it, or for the most part had them determined. I tend to make up the info as I go on the fly while futzing through the character creation screens. I'm still making it up as I go, and still altering minor details to make the back stories fit. Like Herracane, my bubbler. As her concept of an alternate dimensions Heri, I made her history where her powers didn't appear naturally as Heri's did, so she turned to finding technology through her internships at D.A.T.A. and boom she has powers, just through technology. Sounds fine right? One minor detail, initially I was playing her as if she was in her own domension, but then I kinda subconsciously moved her to this Earth, clumping her with the other Heris. Minor problem... I never made a way of HOW she got here. I've cobbled up a Portal-related way of her getting her, which might be a glaring plot device to get her here, but I had to find some way. She's in that pic with the 10 Heris/Wherls zipping around and fightin lol

I think I found the LifePath system online here:

http://www.mecha.com/~conkle/fuzion/FuzionChar.htm

I've gotten most of my chars childhoods, personalities/outlooks on life determined. That I tend to sense while playing the character. The other details I tend to pick as I play the chars and find details that seem to mesh with the character and at the same time makes sense.

I'm not one for PnP determined chars so I don't like using dice to determine anything, although the various events listed for the possible dice rolls give ideas.

Determining Comrade Hero was easy as the genesis was constructed for the Classic Marvel RPG by TSR when I was at College. Although his name at the time was Severance and he wasn't Russian.

When City of Heroes was announced I started working on Comrade Hero - although I hadn't pinned down a suitable name I knew I wanted him to be a post-Communism Russian.

Comrade Hero's origin isn't particularly original - it's a mishmash of Hal Jordan, the Six Million Dollar Man, and the Fantastic Four.

Test pilot take experimental alien tech enhanced SCRAM jet to the edge of earth orbit. Massive bombardment of Cosmic Rays destroy said SCRAM jet and send the pilot hurtling helplessly towards Earth!

Comrade Hero survives the 70 mile fall, creates a huge great in the Arctic and walks away without a scratch. Mutant genes activated (Invulnerability) and he's now infused with Cosmic Energies (Energy Melee) - Jeepers!

The Fuzion LifePath is really good for rounding out characters. For years it was available under freeware license on the Internet until a disagreement between various parties led most of the Fuzion RPG products being withdrawn around 2000.

However, send me a PM if you're interested in learning more about the Fuzion LifePath system.

Covers everything from childhood, parents, personality, philosophy of life and events for each year of a characters life.

that's pretty cool style, looks very cel shaded like. kudos man.

noticed a few things.

1. the beautiful Nobel Prize Scientist - her look screams Honey Bare or Christmas Jones.

2. Her hand position, just sayin... lol

[/ QUOTE ]

I remember Denise Richards as Christmas Jones, but I had to look up Honey Bare. Well hey, scientists can be beautiful and brainy... I have yet to find one yet.

And yes, maybe our distressed Scientist is reaching for Comrade Hero's Utility Belt... what else can be possibly infer?

Comrade Hero by Tsai Lim

Comrade Hero, a damsel in distress, and those dastardly Rikti! What more could you ask for?

A commission by local New Zealand Artist Tsai Lim. Prompting another local talent from my part of the world.

Desmodas is a very seductive and alluring character, it's great to see your collection slowly blossoming

Agreed, very nice linework and a great addition to your collection
