Also... awww, thanks @DJ1 and @Christopher Robin for saying my comic is 'professional quality' (or at least trying to be). I put a lot of thought and effort into this, but you know how artists are-- nothing is ever good enough. ❤️
You're welcome Fox and oh how well I know it.
I will often revisit pieces and add or tweak them even
if the person I am drawing it for is happy with the original.

And that is why I don't generally point stuff out like that, it doesn't take away
from your enjoyment of the comic and most people will not even notice it's there.
If there is an unfortunate spelling that changes the meaning or the artist asks (there
is a webcomic I read that says "all typos must die" next to the byline) then maybe I will.

ToxinFox's comic is very professional (and a joy to read!) and
mistakes are few and far between but just one page back for example...
"Level 5" is missing the 2nd L.
Yeah, a little bit.

See I know you're kidding there but yes I try to be encouraging and welcoming where I can
& point out stuff that I think someone might enjoy learning about or at least find
funny but not everyone wants to know about every little typo or error.
Also congratulations on officially being a running joke... in a comic that is.

I love the new page Toxin Fox.
I'll forego the commentary, I don't want you to get sick of my gushing praise
and/or nitpicking (praise-picking? gush-niting?). Also, yay new comic!

I know right? He's a baby but he can run, jump, talk and he has a full head of long hair. *shudder*

My new shield/dm tanker, King Nictus.
Cool looking costume Tan but if it's anything like King Cake then
under all that purple and yellow is a creepy little baby for some reason.

Croeso. Trident and whiskers got it.

so the Bioluminescence face adds a bit to that while also making the general head area more interesting
That is the Organic Armor face Mjolnerd, Bioluminescence is not very human looking.

If it's anything like the "Mow the Lawn"Task Force I have to run every week or so there is definitely villany afield!
Also as an alternative to the shack there is Imgbox where you don't even need an account (but they
are free and easy to make). Whichever you choose just avoid Photobucket at all costs.
They took in millions of pictures as a free website and sold out to a company
who then put a up a paywall locking people away from their images
unless they paid a ridiculously large sum of money for
access. Unscrupulous to say the least.

The Sith have face tentacles? you mean like starwars sith?
The original ones did yes. The Sith were a race in StarWars
long before the nonology (the 9 "episode" movies) takes place.

Very generous @_Kai_
@DJFM 2 quick questions.
1. Does Pondy have a weapon of some sort?
There is space in the upper left of the sketch I sent you.
I could put the head of a trident or whatever up there if you want.
2. Those things on his at the sides of his mouth are the same color as his skin so I thought
they might be face tentacles like Sith have but then I realized the color restriction
is maybe why they are green but they could also be a mustache (the CC
names them as a Confucius mustache), how do you see them?

Final Four, thanks @Christopher Robin! Big ups to the other finalists, and @DJFM for the win. I have to say, the random draw element makes good sense given the quality of entries. I would hate to have to pick just one!
Your welcome Cutter, yeah it does really help.
You guys seem to love not making it easy for me.
On 4/10/2021 at 6:59 AM, Icanav said:Actually DJ1 that might all be the same shade of green with the way the costume maker changes colors on different materials but it doesn't look like the dark yellow E3 to me either. Could be his monitor is really off or something? I don't know it's really up to CR how he wants to handle it, he's seen and thanked it already.
"Nat it's earthquake under the ocean, we handle it by not handling it." ...is what Okoye would say
if this was Avengers: Endgame and Marvel was trying to tease the coming of Namor (I'm on to you Feige!).
Yes I saw it, and yes it looks to be green not yellow (most likely F4 not E3) and that's okay.
Participants have until the deadline to tweak stuff, what's posted then is what counts.
If people are playing along for fun and to stretch their creativity a bit that's fine.
If they also want to try for a prize they know to stick to the colors of the week
when possible (skin color being the exception). No worries & carry on.

Forgot there was even a prize......................................
Oh so I should give your prize away or skip it then? Also check your PM's.

I'm sticking with the habit of picking one finalist for every three entries (rounding when needed) and so
with 12 entries in a league or their own I chose the 4 characters I thought best followed the theme
& made good use of the four selected colors & then I picked one at random from a hat.
From the depths it did occur that four fathomed the theme
And this week they were...
@Cutter @Icanav @DJFM @American Valor
and the winning entry I pulled is...
Pondy by DJFM!
The gods of random agreed... he really is the coolest.
@DJFM PM, note or post and tell me what you want
for your prize drawing.
Next weeks colors and theme are set, good luck everyone!

but I worry that the orange is overpowering
Yes. Everything is proceeding precisely as pla... oowhat now...? Oh um yes, well obviously
when dealing with such a potent and awesome color it is best to use it sparingly.

Just to note, here you have this as Week 4, however, according to the first page, this should be Week 6
I once again have fallen victim to the dreaded copy/pasta.
Week 6 it is and thanks Tyger for the correction.

@BjorJlen 1st, hello and welcome to the best part of the forums.
2nd, Yes this would be the place to share costumes & art.
Well you can take the characters that you think are
your best and post them in the "best costumes" thread here.
Or you could start your own thread, that way those who want to can look
through at their own leisure. Or try an image hosting site. Or some combination thereof.
Finally the Skulls are not there to be annoyed they are there to be hunted so Go Hunt Kill Skulls!

Well it originally was called something like "What Can Your Level 1 Do?"
and the idea was to make a level one hero meet up in the old sewers and sprint
madly past as many huge mobs of level 5+ Hellions as possible before faceplanting.
Afterwards I would stand over each downed hero on a 50 and look at the distance to an X marker
I placed in the entryway. Multiple runs and the person with the most cumulative yardage
would win a prize. Upon having the rules I had made up explained in the sewers one
contestant quipped "so we're all gonna die here, what really matters is who can
fling their corpse furthest down the hall?" and so it came to be known as
"That corpseflinging event" and eventually just "Corpseflinger."

Then you should click here before noon April 16th!
New colors and theme added!
It's the contest I am currently running (in its 6th week now).
This was the winning entry and prize drawing from week one.

Hunh, it's strange sometimes the perspective you get from reading threads like this.
I lead stuff all the time and I don't really experience the problems that people here are describing.
I've hosted costume contests (thousands of them), lead events, officiated runs and held challenges both
in-game and on the forums here (cough *sig* cough). I've even invented new things (The Cannon-Brawl Run,
Corpseflinger, CoXsO). I go out of my way to find new players and help them with mundane tasks or getting their
bearings (the way people helped me get started). I gave away influ as fast as I could earn it back in the day and almost
made it to zero for shutdown (giving away hundreds of billions is tougher than it sounds). I've heard the horror stories of
terrible teams but almost never encountered them (once or twice in a decade). On live I had a list of "don't invites" but it only
had like 3-4 names on it. This has been one of the best communities I have found which is why I put so much effort into keeping it.
All of the above said, I rarely lead leagues or Task Forces and never organized a Hami Raid but that is just because I lack experience
with those things. Also most content I've done many times over and most maps (especially the repeatable ones) I have long
since memorized so maybe being comfortable and knowledgeable enough to answer stuff on the fly helps (I'm also
a fast typist) but yeah it's weird to think people can be playing the same game as me and have such a different
experience that they'd say "Most of the blue side teams are incompetent morons and afkers." is just bizarre to me
because I play Blue-side nearly exclusively with the occasional prolonged arc that is Gold-side
(never red though). Maybe I am just that lucky or I attract a certain kind of people.

@Sublime No worries. That is the purpose of this thread.
Here's a couple more. One using assorted armor pieces & the other
using color patterns to suggest the shape of the Luddites tunic/gambeson.
