  1. Did you use https://www.artbreeder.com/browse ? It's a great tool to generate and tweak NPC faces for digital TTRPG games. 🙂I never found a good way to capture any of my CoH characters with it, though.
  2. To commission means to order or authorize the production of something. In this case, a piece of art. With the way the world has been working recently, people generally tend to trade their time for currency. So yes, you should definitely expect to pay. How much, however, is up to you and the artist.
  3. Fun fact about Mysterymouse's picture of Julian: it sort of happened in character. Julian was hanging out with Ember Amber (one of my characters, who, in our fiction, is an artist in addition to being a Fire/Kin Controller), and since he doesn't show up on cameras (go figure) she drew his portrait in front of the fireplace (after convincing him to dress up in those tight pants). The faces in the flame is supposed to be her interpretation of Julian's range of moods. It's awesome to see what started out as just a spur of the moment roleplaying idea end up as a completed piece! 😄
  4. @MysteryMouse has drawn another couple of my characters! This is Ruby and Tamara, Praetorian/Primal twins. 🙂 Ruby, on the left, is from Praetoria, where she grew up on the streets of Brooklyn after her parents died in an accident and her grandmother, who was watching her, died in a fire. Those accidents never happened on Primal Earth, however, so Tamara grew up in the lap of luxury. Ruby ended up as a knife-wielding street gang member (dual-blade brute), while Tamara became a highly skilled assassin (archery/ninjitsu blaster) - and both ended up dating their world's version of the same guy (the above-pictured Black-Eyed Pete). 🙂 Mystery Mouse is still open for commissions, by the way! Forty bucks for a single character, fifty for two like this. Backgrounds, effects, pets, etc, can be added for a little bit extra, you'll have to describe it and ask her. 🙂
  5. Here's another character by @MysteryMouse, finished today. Leylah, a vampire blood-magus of clan Tremere, who diablerized her sire and used ancient magics to be able to walk in daylight. A continued unlife in Vienna is a bit too risky, though, so she's sought refuge in the Rogue Isles. (Yes, one of the great things about CoH is how easy it is to accomodate your own stories, even if you want to mix in elements from other soures! 😄 ) She's a Water Blast / Poison Corruptor, but of course I've colored all the fluids red, to illustrate how she's tossing the blood around. 🙂 In-game, I have to make do with her looking like this:
  6. @MysteryMouse is on a roll now, working her way through our characters! When she'd just finished lightbringer and sorority starlet Phi Beta Betty above, she got right on to finish pink goth sorceress Misty here: It shouldn't come as a surprise that Misty is a dark/dark controller, self-taught in the dark arts of the occult. 😄
  7. That's my character Darla Drake. No prize for guessing her archetype. 😉 She's a California sorority girl who has soughtrefuge in the Rogue Isles after having used certain forbidden tomes and summoning spells to wreak vengeance on her former sisters. 😈 Now, thanks to her diabolical pets, she's having the time of her life. 😄
  8. I'm sure she'd be open to a few commissions. 🙂 At the moment, if anyone's interested, just PM me and we'll take it from there.
  9. Cool thread! Lots of nice art in here. 🙂 Here's a few drawings my wife's made of our characters: This is a headshot of Thugs/Pain Mastermind Pete Cipriano, aka "Black Eyed Pete": Here's Pete together with gravity/time controller Isabella, aka "Attitarina". Here's former K-pop starlet Cyan, now known as the mutant vigilante "Swiftspike". Hard to tell from this shot that her favorite pass-time is murdering Trolls in cold blood with her spikes/bio armor in full bloom. 🙂 And here's Asami, aka "Cold Shower" - fluid dynamics researcher by day, water/frost armor Sentinel by night: Last up, Frankie Feelgood - a mutant rad/kinetics Corruptor. Hope you enjoy them! 🙂
  10. So I created my first AE storyarc! 🙂 I hope someone will play it and enjoy it. Reclamation: Baltimore Arc ID: 37438 Created by @nwisth This story is set after more or less every storyline in the game, but in a reality where a Praetorian Mastermind named Pete Cipriano was the one to complete Number Six's story arc and enlisted the aid of his super group to bring civilization back to post-apocalyptic Praetoria. Crowned as the New Emperor by the people of Last Bastion, he's had some success bringing housing, food and power to the pockets of survivors along the US eastern seaboard, but there are many who want to set themselves up as kings. In Reclamation: Baltimore, you join the story as a freelance super working for the New Imperial Forces, taking on a mission from Marshal Robin Tyburn to aid the negotiators sent to try and make the Crips of Baltimore bend their knee to the New Empire in return for aid and fresh supplies from Primal Earth. In addition to the mindless remnants of the Devouring Earth, you'll be fighting the Praetorian Crips - who do not want to sign up under a new Emperor anytime soon - as well as the Church of the Latter-Day Emperor, who believe Cole has ascended, and tries to make the survivors of Baltimore accept God-Emperor Cole as their personal savior. At the end of the story arc, you'll get a souvenir with the access code to Emperor Pete's New Imperial HQ in Last Bastion, complete with shops and a transit hall. 🙂 PS: I hope I haven't stepped on any toes by making Praetorian versions of Crips and Bloods. This is simply meant as a tie-in to the real world, and wanting to use gang members (to tie in to the Thug Mastermind emperor) as power factions in post-apocalyptic Praetoria without resorting to Destroyers, Syndicate, Trolls, Skulls or Hellions. Hopefully they don't count as "controversial real-world individuals or organisations". Hope you like it! And remember to read the clues! 😄
