Normally, I don't do this but a look popped into my head when I read your thread. This is not an exact mirror evil version of Wicked but maybe something about it will spark some interest...
The Dark Side
Hecate
Just throwing this out there! Good luck!
hrmmm...kind of a toughy given you went 'dark' with Wicked. perhaps going to red for Hecate or be really daring and have her in lighter tones to help define the difference between the two. I would definately stay away from Wickeds colors though....that way they are clearly two different people.
just a random thought on the matter...hope it helps a lil~

Pink is evil.....
Dark Purple, Red, and Gold.
Thank you all for the suggestions. You've given me some fresh ideas.

I agree. While black and purple are fun, I don't want them to look the same. I was trying to stay away from the classic villain colors of black and red, but I'm not sure what other colors to try.
btw, I forgot to tell you guys that Wicked is a dark/dark defender while Hecate is a necro/dark mastermind. The fact that Hecate commands zombies who wind up wearing medieval armor almost make me wanna give her a costume with medieval attributes.
gold armor, red trim mainly. selected bits from medievel/justice sets. crown or tiara....another random thought.
could even go with a more brass look if gold doesnt work very well. its deeper in tone but still shiney...also with the red tones brass typically has would blend well with a blood red~

Evil-lyn from He-Man had bright blue in her costume, maybe that's why she wasn't very evil though?
Anyway you could try black and white, it's used a fair amount though or maybe something like this:
Necessary Evil
Personally, I really like the silver and purple look of the one Dark Lilac put up.
With the chains and the sinister top, to me, she looks like she's really ready for a fight, and to start killing anybody in her way.
I finally got it done. Here are some of my characters.
My Deviant art page.
I liked it too.
Here's a couple I've whipped up following some of your suggestions. I want to do more, but my husband wants me to get off the computer for a while.
Anyway, here they are (sorry she keeps getting more and more off screen...I'm in a hurry):
Hecate in Silver Armor
Hecate in Gold Armor
Hecate with Black Armor and orange barbwire
I figured that any combination of these colors and styles of armor would be good.
I'll follow some of the other suggestions when I come back later.
Thanks again for all your help, guys!

Personally I'd not have gone with the colors I did in the image I posted but he said he wanted an "evil" version so I stuck with basically the same colors.
I agree a metallic highlight (silver or gold) would really offset all the darkity dark colors everyone seems to want to use I'd rather just go for a totally different color scheme myself.

Hi, hope this isn't too late. I too like DarkLilac's idea but came up with something slightly different:
Hecate
Alas, I don't have access to demon wings yet, but imagine them with the grey/dk brown colour scheme.
Here is my thinking on this one: because you used such striking colours on the original Wicked Angel, I decided to use more subdued tones on her evil 'twin'. This is also because of the concept I have in mind for Hecate - who is an ancient goddess/demon whose tastes perhaps are a little different from Wicked Angel's. That is why Hecate looks older with wild 'witch-style' grey hair.
The colour-scheme I chose tries to suggest dried blood with mystical silver highlights like a sacrificial dagger.
Hopefully this hasn't pushed it too far away from your original concept and you get some good ideas from it.
As an aside, I like the background you give on Wicked Angel's origin, so here is a suggestion to tie their origins together:
In the Praetorian world, the girl was transformed first by the CoT instead of her boyfriend. The ritual was more than successful, with Hecate gleefully entering into her new body and immediately destroying the CoT mages who summoned her. Because of the lingering emotional link to the boyfriend, he was not destroyed but was trapped in a spiritual limbo, his soul a plaything and power-source for Hecate.
Meanwhile, in Paragon City, Wicked Angel's love for (and guilt over) her slain boyfriend is so strong it breaks through interdimensional barriers and links to the soul Hecate holds captive.
Intrigued by this, Hecate sneaks through a portal to the Rogue Isles to investigate this psychic link, furious that anyone claims this soul that is hers for eternity.

I like the way you think. I was trying to figure out a way to make Wicked Angel seek out Hecate in search of her fiance. That makes perfect sense!
I've imagined Hecate's spirit to be ancient but her body would be young since she's inhabiting a fresh, young woman.
Going off of the "pink is evil" idea... Gothic Hecate
I'll have to start working on some others. The whole medieval thing was only one idea I had. I imagine Wicked as being semi-modest but Hecate not being modest at all.
Hello everyone,
I need your help. A while ago, I created an evil-counterpart to Wicked Angel. For those of you unfamiliar with Wicked's story, basically she was kidnapped by the Circle of Thorns and they tried to use her body as the host for the evil Goddess Hecate. They failed and Wicked received the dark powers but kept her soul.
In the praetorian world, the Circle of Thorns succeeded and Hecate, the villainous, praetorian version of Wicked Angel, was born. My only problem is I cannot figure out what she looks like.
Wicked Angel has a costume of black jeans and shirt with purple highlights. She has the permanent annoyance of the horns on her head, the Circle of Thorns type of shoulder pieces and a demon tail. She also has feathered wings.
I want Hecate to have the demon wings and tail, and the horns labeled "titan horns" in game. The shoulder pieces aren't necessary since Hecate knows how to get rid of the Circle's influence over her (something Wicked is still learning).
I want Hecate to be darker and more goth like. I'd love to see her in leather but I can't come up with anything original that I like.
I'd love to see what you guys can come up with, if you're willing.
Thanks in advance!
