Reminds me of John Carpenters The Fog.  Excellent!

 

That was the main inspiration behind the guy, good eye!

The movement and lighting are awesome.

 

How do you make such gifs?

 

Thanks! I've been using https://gifcap.dev/ for a while now. (along with an online compressor since those gifs tend to be too HQ for the HC forums)

Necessary double post since the previous one was out of space for this...

My latest villainous creation : Captain Dread ! (Broadsword/Bio Stalker)

A notorious bloodthirsty pirate in life, this infamous captain stumbled upon a legendary, yet cursed sword.. Now doomed to roam the Rogue Isles as a vengeful ghost, he seeks only death!

Introducing my latest villain : the Crimson Code ! (Robotics/Electrical Affinity)

 

A former russian hacker who digitalized himself into a living computer virus to escape his former employers, the Malta Council...

He's now able to infiltrate and take over any electronic system through his signature "red" signal, allowing him to control a small armada of combat androids.

Having recently watch Tony Scott's The Last Boy Scout, I got inspired to make a patriotic, football-themed character.

Therefore introducing the Quarterback ! (EM/Shield)

A former star player for the Paragon Patriots who gained kinetic energy-based powers, following a botched Crey experiment involving the team's corrupt manager.

All pics, very nice!  I'd not even seen the name, just the first pic, and I immediately thought "Royal Flush Gang".  The image communicates very well.

 

Thanks! His first ouftit was a little too Gambit-like, so I really wanted to lean in on the colorful card-themed look this time.

Decided to whip up some new duds for my loveable, gambling-themed rogue, the Card King... So here's his main, "classical" costume :

 

 

 

And his classier, "Saint Martial casino owner" outfit :

Ha, nice! Why do I not recognize those gloves?

Retro Sci-Fi, baby!

My personal hommage to tech-based, insect-themed heroes (especially Ted Kord's Blue Beetle) : the former Crey engineer turned electrifying crimefighter, Bugbite ! (Beam/Elec Blaster)

 

 

  

[Post your best costume designs here!]

My homage to cosmic heroes such as Green Lantern (and a bit of a remake of a previously posted character) : the cosmic commander, Starmight ! (Rad/Energy Sentinel)

 

 

[Post your best costume designs here!]

Recently decided to make both a hommage to comic book martial artists AND a Primal Earth counterpart to my Praetorian cyberpunk gunslinger, the Neon Dragon.

 

Therefore introducing the streetfighting martial artist, Dragonfight ! (MA/WP) (in both his modern tracksuit outfit, and his workout clothes)

It's a really great look, though. Very old-school, I love it!

[What should we do with Psychic Blast?]

Play the (much more fun) Sentinel version of the set, of course!

[Post your best costume designs here!]

Not necessarily my most original name or character (I've lost count of how many times I've recycled that name...), but I've been meaning to make my own hommage to Punisher-like, vigilante-type characters. (with a design accidentaly similar to one of @First Player's latest masterpieces, despite this character having been a long time in the making!)

 

Disfigured and left for the dead by the Family, PPD detective Dwight Kowalski lost his sanity at the same time he gained his Glasgow smile...

Deciding to take the law into his own hands, he now hunts down Paragon's criminals as the gun-toting jokester, Wisecrack ! (AR/SR Sent)

 

 

[Drop a name, pick up a name!]

Released the name Blitzfist, for anyone who wants it!

Here is my first Zodiac Team decked out in their Lunar New Year's finery.

 

Happy New Year!  Wishing you all a healthy and prosperous new year!
 

 

Those all look great! Kinda wish we could use the Praetoria PD chest detail on the guy on the right... Were they made using Paragon Chat?

Whenever I see First Player has posted a new costume I get giddy like it's new comic day.

And then I get depressed/jealous ( deprealoused?) at how good it is. 

The duality of costuming!

[Which Redside Villain's Arc for Patron Pools?]

I tend to choose my character's Patron Arc based on purely RP reasons, most of the time!

Is my villain pure evil, a known killer and/or psychopath, with no remorse in his evil deeds? He'll follow Mako the apex predator of the Isles.

Is my villain more of a mastermind, who'd rather use his intellect to manipulate events? He'll go with Black Widow. (bonus point if he's an Arachnos fanboy)

Is my villain a jobber, a mercenary or generally speaking a pretty chill criminal? He'll work for the idiot that is Black Scorpion. (bonus point if my character is Tech or Natural origin)

Is my villain not so much of a villain, but a loveable rogue, a thief or someone on the path to redemption? Good ol' Scirroco it is!

Dig the melding of the eye chest symbol with the inherent skin design!

 

Thanks! I've been saving that one for a while, but I might eventually use it on a more fitting character... Time will tell!

Great costume, but regarding psychic blast - you have far more patience than I.  Between the sound and goofy alternate animations, (not a fan of the original ones either), I just cannot get into the set.  Regardless, kudos to you!

 

Ahah, I can relate! Psychic Blast is pretty hard to love. But the Sentinel's version packs massive damage, and the armor secondaries make for a nice safety net in case Psychic Blast's long a** animations fail.

If you have trouble with it, keep the original animations and think of it as an optic blast set!

Finally decided to give a Psy/ Sentinel a go again...

Introducing Mindsight, an "ascended" psychic from the Seer program who became one of the most ambitious (and devious) Top Dogs !

EDIT:  Man, I go away for two weeks of COVID and you guys unleash 2 new pages of designs on fire!  I love this game!

 

And we missed you, pal! Hope COVID hasn't treated you too harshly, I hope you're doing alright!

Positive Space, Elec/Elec controller

 

Genius use of the Plus chest detail and the Targeting chest pattern, I wish I came up with it myself!
