Just pick one of the canned costume sets and get to villainous activity! 
total kick to the gut
This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.
First off, welcome to the game!
Second, if you just want to play, I echo SwellGuy and say just grab a pre-made costume. If you don't want to do that and want to enjoy how you character looks, they are certainly good guidelines to follow, and you could just one and alter it. Or, you can come up with an idea (robot, ninja, pirate, etc.) and only use costume parts that work with that idea. Or combine them and become a Robot Ninja Pirate!
The possibilities are endless!

I use the random costume generator button when I get stuck like that. I don't actually use exactly what they give me but sometimes get some inspiration from the combinations/colours used which then allows me to build a toon cossie I like.

Welcome to the game, Collins, part of what might help us help you is if you let us know a little about your character, it will also possibly help you, look at his AT and powersets, think, if you want to, of a short backstory about them, their lifestyle, origin, and so forth.

Well i will be honest, i posted in the mastermind section and got a lot of great help there and im thinking i might go bots/pain domination for a first try on mm's. but im kinda compulsive on the look lol was thinking of giving him the basic barbaric hair with a monocile and a goatee and robot claws for hands cus i just think they look kool. but stuck on chest design and the leg design .....Edit... and the boots too lol forgot to say those.

I was doing this just the other day, just idly goofing around to see what would pop up, and BLAMMO: great look for an earth/ice tanker from outer space! Well, almost, but with this instead of that, and switch this to that, and change this color to that, and... hmm, no... not a tanker... an ice/earth dom! From outer space! With this really cool and PERFECT name that's not already taken. Woo hoo!
well here is what i got so far, i looked thru the thread on costumes and posted there as well. http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/8343/mm1j.jpg i kinda like it but im over critical of my own stuff lol i need therapy i know. what do u guys think?
Not a big fan of the Arachnos chest emblem unless you're making an Arachnos-themed character / agent. Otherwise, looks pretty shwag to me
i got a general idea of what set up and what AT ill use but im stuck at the costume screen lol i cant seem to get a look i like. what should i do?
