sounds like something I could get behind. Id's polarzen.

"Oh no, I've gone cross eyed...."

I know this qualifies as weapon skins but I was always partial to the Legacy of Kain cardboard tube skin.

Fear The Tube!

Kahlan, I'm sure this was brought up by customer service but I had a simular experience with my NVIDIA before I bought my new tower. It seemed like EVERY time they ran a new issue/patch/what-have-you, I either couldn't even get into the game or the game was slowed to glacial speeds. Turns out that with every update you had to go to the NVIDIA site and download the newest driver for the game to work. It might have something to do with your unsatisfactory performance issues.

Hope it helps

Can't believe I haven't heard of these.

Sugar High: logout around the donut shop in Faultline. Bonus: adds a multiplier to your speed boosts. reason: Cracked out on refined sugar and sprinkles! (hero)

All Beef: logout near the various burger billboards around R.I (Are these in Paragon, I haven't noticed) Bonus: add multiplier to attack boosts. reason: a high protein diet makes for strong muscles (villian)

Fixer: logout near paper contacts. Reward: Special missions. Reason: you keep your ear to the ground and catch wind of special opportunites before other villians (villians, duh :P)

Sewer Rat: logout in Sewer Network. Reward: Teleporter that will take you to anywhere the sewer runs, provided you're in the network. Reason: You've spent so much time in these tunnels you know shortcuts that even the sewer workers don't know about!

Words alone can't express how cool this pic turned out Doug! The ol brainbot looks absoutely badarse!!! This bad boy is getting blown up at the copy shop and is getting a whole wall in my office! Thanks again man.

Bah, one disgusting organic is just as bad as another....however, they do possess some technology I would like to look at. Consider our immdiate goals to be on the same page.

So don't keep us in suspence! Make a decision yet?

I'm sorry. Even if he is a villian, you don't hit him in the pills. It's just not cricket!

Congrats!
So what happens now? Start over with another character or continue to make heroes lives pure heck while topping out all your enhancements?

I got two animal based characters on Freedom. Monkeyshine is a martial art scrapper who is sliding back down the evolutionary ladder resulting in a rather simian looking appearance. And Speedah, my cheetah scrapper who's penchant for high speed and sharp claws makes her a pretty tough customer.

Awesome pic! What do you mean still getting the hang of inking? Looks great to me and honestly I've thought all those heavily inked jobs always look overwrought you know?

Thanks for the thumbs up guys! It means alot.

Awesome! Always been a fan of the old Bronze Age heroes such as The Shadow, Doc Savage, and The Phantom. Glad to see they are not forgotten!
As for the resemblance to a Disney movie: actually this is a pretty good portrayal of He Who Knows What Lurks In the Hearts of Men. He had a huge rat like nose and somewhat vermin like features that reflected the inner beast of his past attrocities. Disney has a bad habit of taking things they think folks won't notice due to the passage of time and try to make it theirs. you can see what I mean in The Rocketeer where they had a henchman that was the spitting image of Rondo Hatton.

thanks for the tech support Lady. Took your lead.

Sorry I've been AWOL for all these months guys, been trying to refine my technique to something more on par with all the great art I've seen on these boards and the DA accounts attached to here. So without any further ado, here's another attempt at Bomb Blast. Please critique and enjoy.

Hey I've been gone a week on vacation....you ever to try to catch up on a week worth of reading around here????

Happy B-Day Roxstar love that energy drink you make :P

I guess I'm the only one on Freedom (sniffs sadly)

Joyous Naval Anniversary! (Good timing that someone named Celtic is having a birthday on St. Patrick's Day, in case I was the first to notice)

Glad to see someone else starting at wireframe, I was starting to feel like dusty old relic from the Joe Kubert age! Looks great so far.

Nice attention to the background too!

Very cool pic man! Especially like the level of detail you gave the background; gives it an urgent feel but without the blur....like someone with a high speed shutter took the shot.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Sorry I didn't comment on this before now but I have been waylaid with a flu that comes right out of Outbreak! On the mend now and hope to have this pic done soon.

Agreed, fantabulous. I'll go one better and say it invokes a sense of giddyupness.

(Damn car commercials)
