Not a dev, but I can answer this. You'll find that all of the weapon based power sets, such as Assault Rifle, Archery, Trick Arrow, Broadsword, Claws, Mace, Katana, and so on, all allow you to color tint the weapon, but not the weapon effects. |

While it may indeed be technically possible at some point to modify the animation and coloring engines to expose weapon effects to players in the Character Creation system, we do know from other power sets, such a MasterMinds, that exposing such functionality requires significant changes to the underlying game engines.
the tl:dr version: The devs will get around to further color customization when they have the time and resources to do so.

I'd be happy if we were actually firing Arrows out of our bows, instead of freaking Harpoons. Those things are HUGE.

@Oathbound & @Oathbound Too
Arrows actually are quite large. I'd say the sizing is very much correct.

that's your problem with women then, you have to quit shooting them with arrows, they hate that.
