Millennium_Man

Thanks for the replies. I'll go one at a time.

Finally ready to share my AR/NRG build.

Build goals were:
Soft-capped S/L
High recharge for full auto and pets
secondary mitigation - procs and pets
DAMAGE! without sacrificing concept too much
Exemplar-able build
No purples sets (but procs if necessary)

I really liked the idea of a machine gunner type so I read every guide i could find on the subject. While I liked most of the ideas and learned a lot, nobody was doing exactly what I had in mind. I really wanted to build around full auto, because conceptually I didn't like the flamethrower or ignite powers on my assault rifle.

Which of course leaves me with a lot of lolethal damage but such is life. I have six slotted both burst and my spiderling pets with proc-y goodness. The spiders are already fairly formidable without the defense enhancements slotted so i imagine they'll do really well with them, stacking on my maneuvers too! While they don't do a ton of damage they definately draw aggro and that means less for me. They are down for about a minute which I find acceptable. I'm also good with hasten being down for ~12 seconds. Full Auto is up every ~22 seconds.

Web envelope and the Ragnarok proc should help keep what is aggroed to me from getting in my face. If they do I have power thrust and for a tough boss I have the beanbag + stun combo to take them out of the equation.

All enhancements are 35 for maximum exemplaring (35 is them minimum of Sting of the Manticore, so I made it the baseline for all). Anything marked level 50 is actually an attuned enhancement from the paragon store so this reflects values at combat level fifty.

Alpha is musculature core for MOAR DAMAGE! Interface is Reactive radial, natch (incinderary rounds?) Took agless radial for the debuff resistance and Vorpal radial for the defense buff.

Anyway, here it is. Comments and advice appriciated. I'm fairly happy with it but if there are any ideas to do what I'm trying to do better I'd love to hear them. Thanks!

Not sure if this is the place for this but since this isn't a technical problem I guessed it didn't go there.

Anyway, I have an ASUS P5KPL-CM mobo and im trying to find recomendations for a bang for the buck deal on a compatable graphics card. This is really the only game I play so im not worrierd about how it runs CRYSIS or Battlefield or whatever. Also running a core 2 duo
e8400 and two gigs of ddr2 ram if that matters.

Any help would be appriciated.

Went for ranged defense on this and made perma hasten as a side effect. cool stuff but i wanted to see other opinions on it.

Steam Pharaoh

Basically my main toon(Millennium-Man)'s arch nemesis (Maximillion Montague) created this steam powered monstrosity to finally put an end to MM. Unfortunately it was so large that the boiler could not be heated sufficently to move it. Undiscouraged, Montague searched for a hotter heat source. In an ancient text just delivered from one of his artifact hunting teams he read of The Black Flame of Set, a magical unquenchable flame said to burn hotter than the sun. Once it was in his posession he inserted the black flame into his robot unaware the the spirit of a long dead pharoah resided in the flame. The pharaoh awoke at long last seizeing the mechanical body as his own and broke free of Montague to cut his own bloody path to power.

edit: link fix't

So...

Millennium-Man

My brother's 50, Mach Four as i wish he could look and...

my friends toon, Scarry Man

so..yeah.

Hey guys. I haven't posted much in here, perferring to watch all you talented guys and gals do your respective things. Well...there was the one time, but we'll pretend that didn't happen.

Anyway I've been working with a cartoony style and i wanted to share a little if you don't mind. So without further ado:

Millennium-Man , my ss/wp tank

Scary Man , my friend's fire/ice blaster

Mach Four , my brother's ma/sr speedster scrapper.

Now i know these are rough, eventually i'll get around to digital post work once i get comfortable with the drawing part. (in the mean time if anyone has an easy to understand tutorial for digitally cleaning up a drawing i'd appriciate it.)

Now I think you'd like it if maybe i tried my hands at your characters (who doesn't like free art.) but I'm very slow, so let's make it three at first and i can continue after those are done. I'll choose the three tomorrow and let you know. Just when you submit pics tell me his/her powers and three words that best describe him/her.

thanks!

done. all shots are much bigger. thanks!

...on my arm! That's right, I'm looking for an artist to create a half-sleeve tattoo featuring my ss/inv (soon to be ss/wp!) tank Millennium-Man! This can be in any style and as simple or detailed as you want (though the tattoo process does have difficulty with very small fine detail). This contest is starting today and will go to December 25th. At that point I will post a second thread with the choice narrowed down to five candidates, with a voting option for you the community to vote for your favorite! Then, on January 1st I will take the fan favorite down to my local tattoo parlor and have it permanently put on my skin! Make your mark today!

Rules:

-Entries need to be big! I need to be able to scale up the size of the picture without causing notable distortion. A link to a smaller version is fine when submitting but a suitable big copy must exist.

-Full color entries are encouraged but I will also need a copy uncolored line work in the same size. This will make reproducing the line work a million times easier for the tattoo artist.

-Art can be in any style and be of anything as long as it contains Millennium-Man, solo shots, battle shots, artistic shots, it all good as long as it reeks of awesomeness!

-remember the upper arm is basically a cylinder turned on its end. Format accordingly.

-You can make as many entries as you have time to make!

-Final deadline is Midnight Christmas Night, Eastern Time.

Here are some source images to get you started:
1 2 3 there are some details I would like that are not supported by the costume creator. His cape should have a bus coat collar with a gold stripe running around the top of the collar and then straight down to the medallion and then around the outer edge of the cape. The medallion should have a nautical star in a circle etched on it. The cape itself is big enough to be closed like a cloak.

Here is his history (with old pictures. Please refer to the new ones) if you need it but basically all you need to know is that he is like a warrior king. Very regal at peace, very savage in battle.

If you need anymore pics of either Millennium-Man or anything else (He has a pretty extensive rogue's gallery I can provide shots of) don't hesitate to ask, either here or in PM. Thanks in advance to anyone participating and let the contest commence!

i enjoy that if you look close after iTic he appears to smash the iPod into powder in his massive hands

how bout a beast master? a falconer? Will The Falconer's iron will be enough to tame the raptor of justice, White Peregrine?! Tune in next week!

Been busy but here's something i was sketching in some free time at work. trying different perspective. it's all wrong i know. i can't seem to get the bent back flying pose right either. oh well.

p.s. sorry for the crappy camphone pic again. scanner soon i promise.

ill jump in.

Millennium-Man
costume with his old mask

his face now

k here's my idea. i went for that "realistic" vibe, like cap's new uniform. I also added some yellow to the whole look. i don't know how this would look with a cape but id bet itd be awesome with that one that splits up the middle.

anyhoo, here's the screens:
face profile
front close

3/4 whole

back

if you like it ill shoot you the recipe, but im sure you can tell most of it from just looking at it.

amazing. you knocked it out of the park! my only thing, and its my fault for not having a screen shot on hand is he has folded boot cuffs. but i'm loving seeing all the detail in his leg muscles so we'll call it a happy accident like bob ross. ;-)

p.s. pm me if you color mine and i'll get you the info or maybe a freakin screenshot.

if you want another model you can use my tank, Millennium Man.

here

Sorry, no screenies but it's my art of him.

yeah i know. the thing is i haven't drawn a lick in 6 years or so and just picked it back up about 2 months ago. so a scanner is in my future but how soon? who knows?

Doh! Forgot i had this one on the laptop too. Another one i spent some real time on.

my brother's alt Nova Man

sadly i never have enough time to get them to turn out like this and you get a lot like the first few there. Now to make them do something besides stand around!

Still new to the boards but i've been fighting the good fight on Liberty for a little over a year. (still no 50. gotta stop starting over! XD )

thought i'd share some of my art with y'all since everyone seems really constuctive here. I don't have screens on my laptop for comparison but i'm sure you can get the idea.

First up, my good friend's fire/ice blaster, Scarry Man

Then my main, a SS/Invul tank, Millennium Man

And my little brother's main, a MA/SR speedster scrapper, Mach Four

and here's another one of MM that I spent a LONG time on. Like 2 hours I think.
pencil

and a close up of that one after i inked it(think i like it better before :/ )
ink

That's all I got right now. Sorry for the image quality, it's just a camera phone but it's all I got. So whatdaya think?
