I missed mine but I am leraning to edit the videos so I can recreate it

not to hard to do
I leveled kneeling in front of sister solaris while she was doing her ritual while my teammates finished the last enemy

awesome

one of these days I will get up the nerve to get art done :P

EDIT: forgot to say how brilliant it is

I am so jealous

chances are that since I am trying to learn to demo edit I am gogin to be posting my improvements in here
atm I tryin to edit a video...

test1 is my main killing a bunch of rikti monkeys in this i am gonna try and turn the mokeys into AVs.

okay I decided to turn 1 monkey into ghost widow and make the rest go away here

just one question.
1. how do I get her to stop moving like she is?

nm figured it out :P

I have read most of the infomation on demo editing and as confusing as it is there is one thing tha has me completely lost....how do you actually edit the information...thats the only thing I dont get...I can't figure out how to actually edit the code

I have Zloths demo editor/launcher but I can't figure out how to edit it

wow that really good
<<till working on it :P

so is he like a lycanthrope or something?

anyway, designing is my favorite part of this game, and i was sort of playing with ideas for Volt Sentinel (hope you dont mind!). It's a Loom design (that's my "label" for the costume contests I enter, and also for an in-game character who is sort of my avatar for the label - i feel very gay, typing all that out!). Anyway, I went with a 4-color scheme, and here you are.. just as sort of a suggestion.

I want to be sure to say that I like your stuff! I just got inspired because Volt is a pretty iconic character.

cough! so here :

WOW! that costume is amazing

and nah Volts not lycan...just a mutant...eventually I am gonna wrtie a bunch of short stories (if I can find the time) and each costume is gonna be something that happened to him (like I mentioned the zombie virus, or the temporary lycan and vampires states)

also thanks for Iconic comment...I had classic marvel in mind when I designed him

heya, I like most of these I agree with EnergyDrink that using only 2 colors can make it hard to create a hero that's unique, and that's particularly true of lightning-based heroes because there arent a lot of electricity options to choose from. Having said that, after browsing through all your designs i feel like i have a sense of your character, and for some reaosn the lightning bolt on the trenchcoat really works for me! And I think the blue and white combo should always stand out for your character. So, let's say you add another shade of blue? or maybe put some black in?

anyway, whatever, thanks for posting these, i like seeign what other folks ome up with

thanks for that comment

I tried to keep hie colours mostly basic ones ones with a few different thrown in here and there

the faction specific ones are all a bit different
and the space one is a darker blue/silver

the gothic ones (vampire/werewolf/midnighter) I tried to keep them darker colours but use one blue item each to make it a bit unique (shirt/leather strap and marks on pantvarious piece of clothing...respectfully.)

the 2 things I triedd to keep in whatever I costume I could is his lightning bolt/belt

the bolts for fun
th belt is a nanotech device made for him by a member of his brothers supergroup that stores various costume pieces (again save unique I.E. zombie/vampire/werewolf/possessed(angelic)

Volt Costumes

well I got bored today and decided to use a bunch of my free costume tokens and make a bunch of costumes from Volts (future) history...atm they range from being a zombie (I.E. Marvel zombies....though in this case it was a reversable virus) to his curent classic iteration

sry if the quality is kinda bad..im bad at taking screen shots :P

I am trying to make a unique (but recognizable) costume for each of the games 4 mahor hero faction
Main-my usual
2nd-Longbow...basically I copied This guys

3rd-Mender...this is the one giving me the most trouble

4th-Vanguard...this one was easy for obvious reson :P basically my regulat costume w/ vanguard boots/gloves/chestpiece 1/ and the mouth mask/shoulder 2

5th-Midnight Squad..again easy black trenchcoat w/ dress shirt 1 and slacks

mostly though I was wondering if anyone has any classic but unique mender costume they use
