    The Man-Bog, Plant/Thorn/Leviathan Dom, a pairing I've tried a thousand times and abandoned but this one I've really enjoyed.

    all of these looks are absolutely wicked (maybe gnarly is a more appropriate word here?). I especially love the color blends on the 2nd and 3rd.

    Got addicted to Marvel Snap, took a break from City of Heroes and for some reason got stuck on an idea of a Thermal/Beam defender that I had to make. Heat-Ray..I originally started with kind of a goofy golden age style costume (think Abestos Lady), came up with his second costume that I fell in love with, then decided to try and do costumes from different eras for the same character. picture one is 90s, with the unneccessary straps and pouches everywhere, picture two, golden age style, picture 3 modern day armor, and 4 classic/80s look.

    I love everything about this. Character concept and execution are great and it all works very cohesively. One of my favorite things to do with the power system in this game is to find different sets that I can pull together really smoothly in a thematic way, and this is a perfect example of that.

  3. I was about to make a post about this exact same thing after it feeling really awkward trying to integrate Boxing cleanly into my staff fighting character's attack chains due to constantly drawing and redrawing after switching back to the basic punch animation.

     

    and if I may add, I think this should 100% be extended to Kick as well. for some reason, Kick puts away your weapons and stuff when used, despite the fact that, well, you aren't even using your arms for it, which is pretty awkward in my opinion. Would love to see these smoothed out if possible, especially since the Fighting power pool is a natural pickup for the types of characters that run into these issues.

    Just in time for winter, my latest Ice/Ice stalker : the Icepicker, ex-Family hitman and cryotech assassin!

    love what you did with the asymmetry on the ice sword arm being all tech'd up. always feels sick when you can integrate a clean way to show off the devices that create your powers on tech origin costumes.

    I made this costume for my ElecMelee/DA brute, Nebula Storm, for Christopher Robin's costume contest theme for this week, and liked it so much I wanted to share it here as well!

    really love the way you used the patterns on the upper body and legs, gives a constellation sort of effect.

    I made another costume that I don't what to do with for AT/sets/bio.

    I wanted to do something with the Malaise pattern and this is what I came up with.

    You can barley see it, but I used the Valkyrie Crest on top. I also used white/black or black/white for the Malaise pattern. I am not sure which one.

    I just wanna say that I really love what you did with this, I wasn't even aware of the radiance design options on the ascension pieces of gear until now, and you really integrated them well into this sort of tech samurai-esque design.

  7. Since Skyraider inspiration has been brought up, may as well show off my own Skyraider-inspired costume. Piloted by Starsmite, an electrical melee/energy aura scrapper. I first wanted to make a flying-oriented melee character, and ended up settling on a Skyraider-esque tech background.

    I've always found the Skyraider getups really interesting and cool, as well as their sort-of-twins, the Goldbrickers, so I also made a Goldbreaker-inspired costume, though I haven't created a character for it yet.

    And lastly, here's a bit of a change of pace to a costume I'm working on for a gravity control/psionic assault dominator. Not sure if I have all the details ironed out, but I'm pretty happy with the design so far.

    Might have to go with a different chest detail, current one doesn't blend into the suit quite as nicely as I'd like.
     

    Anyway, thanks all for sharing so many cool and creative costumes, and I only hope my additions to the thread can maybe add a bit of inspiration too!
