Oh yeah, brown leather. I forgot about that as opposed to metallic for an acceptable over-layer.

And I apologize for being elitist.

This was all done in good fun.

Today's bit of knowledge: Superhero costumes traditionally use the heraldic method of 2 tinctures(color) and one metal(silver, gold), black and white being used in both fashions.

I suppose you won't be happy without some screens, so have this one and that one and one over there

I like this one.

Purple has been pretty tough to work with.

But you confirm what I thought, that 3 different colors are near impossible to pull off and look tasteful without one being a metallic color.

Have you found yourself trying to incorporate a contrasting 3rd color into all of your designs now? I seem to be overly avert to only using 2 "tinctures".

I am not sure what is worse:

The fact that he thinks its a cool costume or the fact that is looks like something you could achive by hitting the Random button enough times.

I really like your Snowman Frost.

But I just don't get the other character in your sig. Like Turbo-Ski, maybe there is a great bio to make up for lack of imagination at name and character generation?

That's an awful costume and you should be ashamed for making it.

I like this combination.

Your participation in this thread has been invaluable.

You quoted Star Trek? Now we'll have to fine you thirty thousand Quatloos!

Oh, and for the OP... Light-Speed is rainbowriffic!

I like it. I'm impressed.

It's a shame more people couldn't be manipulated into playing along.

I found the OP'sawesome costumes in another thread (posted below), but when I tried to count the colors, I got a little confused. One, two, three... ? Nope, I lost it.

Then you agree with me that the 2 color combo is terribly bland.

This is the character that got me thinking about the 3 color combo and it's superiority over the 2 color scheme.

I can no longer even stomach looking at the other costumes in that post. Looking at them makes me physically ill, and I weep at my own mediocrity.

As an admitted novice I made no claim to greatness other than being leaps and bounds above the sheer number of black and red "Heroes".

You heroes need thicker skin.

Your 2 colors sadden me.

When I look at my awesome character with 3 coordinating colors in the theme, I can't help but look down on the 2 color people.

What 3+ color combinations work for you?

I'll admit that I'm a costume novice, and I find myself stuck with 2 base colors and metal accents.

I'm very interested in seeing other characters with a minimum 3 colors.

I classify a multiple color scheme as:

3 different colors, not different shades, across a minimum of 3 pieces. Fewer pieces are allowable with more color combinations.

And try not to look like a 5 year old that dressed themselves for the first day of kindergarten.

I'm sure that someone will impress me.
