  1. Hi guys. Just thought i'd post something i've been working on, and prehaps add anymore stuffs i do in the future too.

    Some of you might have seen i posted some screenies and bio in the 'post you best costume thread' in a very rough and ready comic book format. It was a bit haphazzard as i just had the idea as i was posting them and kind of threw it together. It did get me to thinking tho, that i could take some time and try and create a mini-comic from screenshots.

    So i did, here it is

    Any and all comments are welcome as always. I know i can't take credit for the actual artwork, but any critique of the composition of the shots, the storyline, the presentation, etc would be cool. Cheers H.

  2. how about something along the lines of him being rejected by his friends and family who are afraid of him and his powers. He grows up lonely, angry and bitter, despising his powers, himself and anyone like him. His reason for a change of heart could be just that, a girl on the superteam, understands him, accepts him for who he is, he falls for her... awww. Heh.

    Hope this helps.

    arghh, wish i'd seen this earlier, would have submitted one of my 4 robot characters....

    good luck on the challenge Techbot, cheers H.
  4. Some really nice pieces on your site Rosen (what's the piece of music on the vid btw?)
  5. ahh, thanks very much Bubba, much appreciated .

    I know what you're saying about the veil and tbh i only added it to cover that horrible mouth you get with the bioluminescent face, really wanted the wide eyes tho... i'm sure there's prolly an option in there that will suit
  6. welcome back then

    great spider costume and i love your art style, very atmospheric.
  7. are EU players eligible to enter this, or will there be a problem with transferring the prizes?
  8. I have two brothers, British Hero and The Grenadier. Long bio short is, they were close brothers, BH a few years younger than Grenadier. Both join the British army and advance until they are serving in the SAS together. Mission goes awry, and squad is blown up in a radiation leak explosion, BH suffers non fatal injuries, but which cause him to be unable to save his brother, who he believes is killed. BH discharged from army and has strange side effects regarding him being able to affect his own and others metabolisms (is Rad/DP/Speed Defender) uses powers and tech gadgets to avenge brothers death for which he blames himself and fight crime, unknowingly being watched by the British Government.
    Grenadier is infact not killed but is horrifically disfigured and abandoned by the army, this threatens his sanity, until he learns of his brothers condition and the interest the British Government has in him. This gives him focus to hide his old identity and use tech gadgets to join his brothers world of crimefighting in an attempt to watch over him (is DP/Device/flight Blaster), though he constantly battles with his inner demon to stay on the right path. He soon realises that the few survivors of the accident have subsequently been killed, and the Government has erased all history of his brothers origin, forcing him to maintain his secret identity, even from his brother.

    k, bit longer than short, but there you go

    Here's two screenies, the first is Grenadier and British hero in there first costumes, the second being their second costumes. Hope they might be of interest.

    cheers H.

    Thank you in advance.
    sure, just plain male model coloured black/red for contrast.

  12. Hi guys. Some great costumes posted here by you all. I had to buy the pack just so i wasn't left out, lol

    First use for it was on my main, Robostein, Bots/FF/Charged Mastery MM(hero). First addition was a cloak, which i haven't used on his first 3 costumes as he just didn't seem the cloaky type... Unified Field Façade cloak seems a nice fit tho, like it's actually some kind of solid energy field.
    Aura used is thunderhead on eyes only. Looks great in game, naff on screenshot unfortunately. Gives a flickering energy glow with random arcs of electricity shooting out.

    So far, liking the pack. Will post some more of some of my alts once i upgrade them, cheers H.

  13. Well call me crazy, i've been drawing a blank on this all week, then suddenly something screamed 'GIMP SUIT!!' at me. So i thought, 'fair enough...' went and put my gimp suit on, and sat back down to design your costume...

    ok, stop calling me crazy now... thanks.

    I’d like to see something villainous, and with some hint of either the stick or the matchhead. Male or Female is ok, though I tend to avoid playing males with a normal human face.
    well, i forwent the stick and concentrated on the matchhead element, set her as a Fire/Therm Corruptor, think the animation is 'fire shield' in the screenie, and gave her a kind of villianous looking outfit. Hope you like her, cheers H.

  14. Happy Birthday GQ, have a great day
  15. Ahh cool Thanks very much for the congrats, and the win!

    one way is to type [img] before the link and [/img] after the link, that will then post the actual picture instead of the hyperlink in your message.
  20. That background is so clever, just two straight lines, but it seems to place them in an entire scene. I'm seeing them emerging from a backstreet alley or some such, great stuff. Look forward to the colour
  21. Hi all. Been mulling over this one all week and really struggling to come up with anything cheesey enough, until it dawned on my the whole idea of this contest is not to recreate a similarly cheesey costume as the original, but to take these characters that in his opinion, Naz deems to be naff (and so far, i have to agree, lol), and make them look cool within that same character... So on that note, here's my cool Captain Ultra
