Ahhh, I see it. I can see the hilt and handguard are alot smaller. That is one "H E double hockey stick" of a sheath! How often does he have to use the sword? Will he just beat people with the sheath first? :-)

I love the pose, it is looking very good. Nice work!

Haha! The kitty does it for me! That is the icing on the cake!

Agreed, it won't be able to be done from the start. The Op though did mention we could use invented pieces, vanguard pieces, and vet pieces. This is why I made the costume on the right easier to be made from the start (minus the vanguard chest piece).

I am going to work on one that includes only invented pieces and initial pieces.

That reminds me, Ninja_Beethoven, what travel power do you have envisioned for your character?

These are just 2 ideas I threw together quick. In both of them I kept your original helmet, althought I would suggest maybe changing the visor color, but I kept it as is.

I kept the color scheme because it seems to fit the name. When I think of a clock I think gold. If you like anything from either of them, let me know. I will use what you like to revamp them more.

I will take my lucky number, 13!

EDIT: Looks like this might be taken on DA, if so I will take 70.

Wow, that looks... I don't think there is a word to describe it, but here I go... AMAZING!

Yeah, it was great. We had a big turnout, thanks to our great global channels and Ex Libris posting a flyer someone made. It was neat to see people put a bathing suit in place of their normal costume. Like for Android I kept his robotic look, but just gave him swimming trunks. We had an undead couple in bathing suits, too. Was pretty fun and lagfilled!

Here is my GUI.

For a good portion of my characters, I play around with the GUI color, but all of them have the same basic layout. Coming from a FPS, RTS, and action RPG (whatever Diablo II would be considered) background, I like having my health and endurance front middle. If I ever can afford a widescreen LCD, I will probably have everything along the bottom.

Well I figured I might as well finish my day off right. I believe I will eventually have all my characters kept in my DeviantArts Scraps, but I will show off the first one. Meet my robot/forcefield mastermind, Android.

I provided his "bio," but it doesn't do him justice. My ideas for the costumes are that he is still evolving. His original costume, the one on the left, is him during his younger years after his "father" was killed. He had to learn and adapt to his environment, and his costume reflects his immaturity. His mind at the time was maybe that of a young teen, so his fashion sense was, flawed. He just wanted to fit in with the rest of the Rogue Isle so he wasn't singled out.

As his mind matured and his "career" advanced, so did he. All the torture and torment that the citizens of the Rogue Isle endured was what this open "mind" (A.I.) took in. He began to adjust his own appearance to be more villianous and frightening. He also created his own most advanced "son," his Assault Bot. With his now six "sons" and himself, he is fulfilling the legacy in which he was shown at such a young age, the ruthless takeover of the weak.

If any of you play on Pinnacle, he was part of the Pinnacle's Night Out: End of Summer Rikti Bash! He can be seen here floating in the top middle wearing his swimming trunks.

Thanks for all the info, I made an account and as we speak taking some screenshots of my chars, my graphics aren't the greatest, this is a 6 year old machine, so I have been using the character creator screen. I am gonna try and photoshop my characters with their Bios, and the ones that the Bios are too short for, I will write their... story.

One more question, are there "groups" or anything to join? Is there a CoH Artist group or anything of that sort, or is it all by person favoriting alot of pieces?

That is Amazing LJ, I can't wait for the finished product.

I peruse these forums often, mostly with a jaw dropping expression, of how talented everyone is with "City of" characters and their own personal creations. I have spent many hours just clicking through peoples favorites and galleries on DA.

Do you need to be an artist to join DA? My most impressive artistic ability is to give a stick figure a face (and even that usually doesn't turn out too well!). The most I do is make sigs and sprays for my members in a CSS (Countrstrike: Source) clan. That is all just photoshop magic with me controlling it to the best of my ability.

Can you join DA just being a huge art fanatic? I don't know if I could, but I would favorite EVERY "City of" character piece I would find! Not having an artistic bone in my body, I have huge admiration for the raw talent and skills of all artist. I guess having a DA account and favoriting any "City of" piece would just be my way of paying homage to the game and it's artist.

P.S.: Also, to add to the question, does NCSoft allow us to post screenshots of our characters from the character creator? I know I have seen some there, but does this break any underlying EULA rule or anything of that sort?
