Nice job combining this color scheme with the reptilian pieces. Definitely looks draconic. Maybe its just the screencaps, but the arm spikes on the upper arms almost blend in. Try to get some more contrast there. Everything else looks good. Definitely a prime candidate for Fire Breath.

It's the screencaps, I think. Try looking at them here .
Ah, definitely some trickery of the light in the screencaps.
Thanks for the nice notes, Naz. I have biases against the armor pieces that I'll have to confront if I want a convincing looking looking War God golem.
I love the Skruller-Scheme for the next contest.

Limone However, Id change the color of the hat band to match the gloves and shoulders. It looks like youre using the sharp pattern on the boots, but theyre so covered up by the boots themselves, they may as well not be there at all.

Unfortunately, with that hat you cannot color the headband. The secondary color goes to the under-hair. It's an annoying limitation when you're going for the cool "hat with a face-mask" combo.

Clever name. Love the choice of hairstyle. It immediately gives the character a fiery quality before you even get to the colors. Given the eldritch chest emblem and the voodoo-like skull mask, there might be a hint of occultism to the character as well. Im not sure about the chains. Any particular reason you chose them?
[/ QUOTE ]
The neck chain I like using sort of like a necklace on my characters using tights. IMO the neck line left by tights always looks unfinished. I opted to add the arm chains to give her a little more bulk up top and ended up liking it more with the black around both the neck and arms rather than just the neck. To be honest I never think about things looking more "occult" or anything. I more or less just scroll through all the options one by one looking for something that fits the image I have in my mind or at least compliments it. Thanks for the awesome critique!
Ok off to work on the new palette, I am so excited about those colors.
Love purples and greens together.

Don't forget to mention sailor style school uniforms. 
Jean desPorcs lived a life of excess and position. He lived in splendor and feasted greatly while the peasants that lived under his care were beaten and starved. Now in death he must contend with a never ending hunger that drives him to consume the flesh of the living. Forevermore he is cursed as The Grim Hunger.
Just a note, the colors didn't read well on my machine in variation. I've used them all, but they don't seem to set apart from each other terribly well. Fun palette though.
I see what you mean. I can only make out one of the purples and two of the greens. Quite the brightly colored necro MM.
I don't want to sound all persnickety, but can you use less images, please? The more shots you put in your collage, the smaller they get, and then it's harder for me to make out the details. A front, back, and 3/4 turn is really all I need, but one or two action shots can be included.

No problem--I get carried away I'm having so much fun--here ya go New Sheet for The Grim Hunger.
Just think, if you collect enough no-prizes, you could make quite an animated avatar.
Now get cracking! I can't wait to see what you guys come up with for this new palette.
I have to admit I cheated just a little on this one... I already had a character that only needed a couple of little tweaks to be just what I wanted.
Fillypad - Earth/Storm Controller
Siberian Spring-50 (Cold/Rad, Rad/Ice, Ice/Rad, Sh/Ice) - KGB SS8
Chernozem-50 (Ice/MM, Emp/Ice, MA/Regen) - KGB SS8
Wila-50 (Dark/Arch) - KGB SS8
Also: Krassivy Mechtayu-50 (Ill/Rad) - KGB SS8; Ms. Hypatia-50 (Dark/Regen)
I am not sure how to do the fancy photoshop yet so this is what I canme up with.
If it makes it any more special I waited till there was a rikti invasion so I could make a green background.
Grandma still has skills.
Fillypad is a perfect bit of execution for the color scheme--a natural choice.
Grandma reminds me a little of the grandma from Mulan (and oddly enough Granny from the Beverly Hillbillies).
Ok finished my newest creation and latest entry.
Ellette is a Mutant Plant/Kin Controller that loves stars.
Edited to add, it's a shame you can't see the differences in 2 of the greens or the purples in the pics.
I used all the colors I swear.
Presenting: Prime Mogul
He's possessor of the best super powers money can buy.
Hemmingford Smith got tired of amassing wealth. Can boredom become the enemy of evil? Yes! He thought he would let his greatness "trickle down" by finding a mystic who offered real super powers at a premium price.
Prime Mogul
Kicking thugs in the head turns out to be a great diversion!

I see you made her on the test server (where all the skirts are put on sideways). It actually works out well for that pattern, but any idea when that's gonna get fixed? Mini3 really leaves nothing to the imagination as it is on test.

Actually, I created this on the live server (Justice). I bugged it once I loaded into the game however, I do not know when it will be fixed. I gotta say though, the bugged skirt ended up being my focal point and I reworked the entire costume to fit around that heh. Once the bug is fixed I will have to find another costume for her (if I decide to keep her).
PS if you see the thread with this bug please pm me with a link. I have searched and searched for it but can't find it.
PSS never mind the link heh I found it in the Test section (thanks to your hint)
Ok last update on the skirt bug.
It looks like the patch that will hit the Training Room Server today does have a fix for this and once it passes QA will be pushed to the live servers.
I know this one.
An eggplant.
