  1. My question is would this be screenshots or an actual Art thingy?

    I remember SWG had several servers with pin up calenders in the day-often screenshots with some airbrushing...

    This is an example (please excuse the size-) This was an entry that I got in too late for one year's calendar.



    Often, once the toon was accepted, the screenshot would go into photoshop for some 'cleanup' work.

    And I am not sure this would work for CoH toons...given the character creation system in this game.

    Eg: This is Mellissandria (Paragon City edition)

  3. Fortunately, I have screenies of some of the old costumes for my characters. If need be, I can rebuild/recreate from there, like I am for the current Ryouko story I am writing...(no you can't see it yet.)

    This way, I'm guessing I've saved the best and gotten rid of the chaff, and can reorganize costumes/power designs as well.

    In the case of Ryouko, her current costume stays in at least one slot out of five, so all she needs are new nonsuper clothing, and for me to save her current costume model with a bathing suit for summer
  4. I like to play dress up with my toons, too. Until recently (when I accidentally reinstalled CoH over the old version,) Ryouko had one of the most extensive costume collection I had seen in an MMO in a long time...

    Fortunately her current costume survived, but the rest, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to rebuild.

    Thanks for pointing this out, Bubblegum! This will make shifting influence from one toon to another a thousand times easier!...

    GAH! Deuling Banjos ...

    How's that SG coming along, btw?
    Things calmed down. I wasn't in trouble, as it turned out, but some air got cleared.

    Just changed the icon. Want me to change it back? or change it to an Oryo Ryouko one?
  8. :gets out the banjo and starts to play "Dueling Banjos" solo...

    Afternoon, y'all.
  9. 1. Clutch
    2. Scootertwo
    3. Frost

    (and this was really hard to decide!)
  10. Do stories count as entries or is this just for art as in the visual kind?

    Just curious.

    It may be getting mistaken for some sort of modern art sculpture. Either that or that's more common than you think.
  13. Hi. I'm thinking of applying to Hero Studios, since I'm already hanging with you guys some nights and lurking in the channel. Is there anyone in particular I need to ask?

    Are there any particular archtypes you need? Or can I just choose a toon from my stable (yes, I have horrible altitis). I'd probably wind up being part time, due to me belonging to two guilds run by an old friend from the bad old Atlanta days. But when I have the time, I would be willing to help you guys.

    Don't have vent or skype currently installed. Would be willing to on request, as long as it doesn't lag me out..

    Any special place or can I just snag an officer?

    Hooray!

    (starts to plan and plot..)
  15. This was an exercise in frustration for me.

    I live in the Boston area...and didn't even know about PAX East til tonight. Friday and Sunday does me no good if Saturday is already sold out....Wish it was possible for the devs to rethink this and well...move their meet and greet to a day that's not sold out....
  16. So far, all the art I have gotten has been digital, and is stored in two or more places on my computer and the Internet, in case of a virus attack.

    Hoping eventually to print out three of them, "Sailor Lune", "Kami Megami" and "Oryo Ryouko" and put them on the wall as posters or framed art. The "Sailor Lune" is no big deal, just a recolored Sailor Moon picture, but it's still the absolute first one I ever got...back around 2002, I think. Yes, I am a sentimental idiot. And a poster freak.

    (looks up and sees Bayani has posted above her...well then, may as well put my three up here so the post doesn't look so...plain..)


    Sailor Lune, coloring by Lorilei, who also edited the picture from a Sailor Moon Coloring book.


    Kami Megami, art by the player of Summer Evening on Virtue Server.


    Oryo Ryouko, which was done by Luke Denby as a piece of gift art..(thank you, Bayani)!

    I'd probably go into shock..then into a squealing fit, if I ever got an actual piece of art from someone. (I'd love to get a Fred Gallagher..been following "Megatokyo" since the beginning..)

  18. Mystik Paladin, my sword scrapper, was originally an SWG Jedi toon named Arithon Kerson.

    Mellissandria, my sonic/psionic defender, started out in a FASA Dr. Who Rp, and has popped up in a couple of MU**s, as well as in Gaia and Cabbit Patch forum RPs. She's been in SWG as an entertainer, in WoW as a rogue, and in LOTRO as a minstrel.

    The third one is Dana/Daina Starchild. Basically, she's a spunky fighter. Originally, she was in a MUX, then moved to AdventureQuest, and from there, made the hop to SWG, where she was a creature handler, and later a bounty hunter chick. On WoW, she was a dwarf hunter named Daina. In CoH, she's briefly made two appearances, first as Sailor Starchild (scrapper) and then as Eagle Feather (blaster archer)..eventually, I realized I needed to wait for Dual Pistols, then she'll make her reapperance..(better go claim her name now!)
  19. It was loads of fun. The two people from the Young Saints who were with me (Razorblade-Kiss and Patrioteen) also enjoyed it immensely!.
  20. Awwwwww...been wanting to get either a Maine Coon or a Siberian cat..something that could hold its own against the current ruler of our apartment- Shadow (aka Shadow the Basement Cat..)

    But first, we need to get a slightly larger apartment...one big enough for a large housecat or two to romp around in...can we say I'm a sucker for felines?
  21. My thoughts are with his family.

    So, I would love to take requests. I really quite doubt I could do all of those that request, but I will try to do most of them.
    Really dumb question, but I need to ask it anyway for clarification...are you still doing this?

    (asking mostly for curiosity's sake
  23. I want to thank Dr. Aeon for leading the Virtue group thru a romp thru the Hickman Arc last night...

    I was impressed by Aeon's ability to stay totally in character throughout the whole event...This man may well have become an RP guru, villain or no.

    I also loved the puns in the arc, and everyone's bouncing off them...if I was the quiet one, it was because behind the keyboard, I was laughing my backend off...! Which was why I didn't let people know when I hit a level during one of the missions...

    Thanks for letting me into the group as well...I was the final one to find him, and I finally had to learn to think like a villain in order to find him....(yes, Magical Warrior Luna is a bluesider...). Loads of fun, and I look forward to seeing that screenshot of the whole group

    One thing that yesterday's events taught me, is that you can't base an arc on what the writer has written before...

    You should try the Lackey arc. There's not the first white clad sorcerer or telepathic horse to be found in that arc. In fact, she brings on the snark in a biig way..!

    In fact played her arc yesterday afternoon, and Hickman's last night (and thank you, Dr. Aeon for taking us through that romp!-I would have been the yellow and pink eyesore). Gonna do Grossman's later, probably, when I am more awake.
  25. Just let me know if you hit Virtue and what time, and I'll bring one of my toons
