You're welcome.  And great design!

Honestly, I wish I could see more of things that anyone has done with name suggestions I've thrown out to the crowd.

Oh I can do that for sure, I've got quite a few of your donations in my list now.

Plasmastorm (thanks for the name, P2!) Elec/elec sentinel. Inspired by everyone's favorite Spencer's Gift light from the 80's

Nice work & excellent balance of color & shade.  I'm guessing you're using Spectrum, but as it is supposedly a single-color feature,  how is the 2-toned blue/magenta look achieved?

 

EDIT: Ah, nevermind.  I'd always worked under the assumption that spectrum was single color, but experimenting now, I realize it can be a subtle 2-color selection.

Spectrum can use two colours, have a play with it and you'll see. Certain colours work better than others.

 

Edit: Actually, I'll show what I mean. So, spectrums 2 colours are sort of like "Base" and "Highlight". I say sort of, because not all colours work. So here, black is the highlight and thus you don't get a highlight:

Whereas here, white is the highlight and a fair bit more noticeable:

But, like I said, it's quite finicky on what colours work together. And they don't always look good:spec1.thumb.jpg.4016de4eae91e13363e55969eaa259c8.jpg

 

A lot of the time, there's very little difference in using a lot of colours as the highlight instead of white, but you can sometimes stumble across nice combos:

As is the case with costume creation, a lot of trial and error.

First attempt at making my own costume for a character... hope you all like it. His name is The Resistance Arrow: A Technology Archery/Atomic Blaster

Does that mean you're new to the game, or you've been doing homage costumes and/or using other people's designs until now? (Just curious)

 

Either way, he looks great!  I like the way the patterns on the boots and pants blend together, and the cybernetic eye detail.

Want more from Praetoria? Check out my level 40+ Praetoria missions in AE! I've got 3 complete arcs so far.
Praetorians can get to AE in Pocket D by going through Studio 55.

Another Player 2 name donation, Gypsy Moth. DP/Martial Combat Blaster

Gypsy.JPG

I love the use of the cheetah spots for something other than a cat-person.

 

This is absolutely amazing.  Seriously, this may be my favorite "not my character" design.  I mean... I like this better than many of my own!

 

I'm jealous.

This has such a strong look that it feels like it has the potential to be COH's answer to The Wasp, especially the friendly, feisty version in the animated "Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes" series.  Too bad the game does not have shrinking powers.

Wow, that is seriously high praise! Thank you so much!

Thank you! It's funny, I've tried this power combo a few times and never enjoyed it. But on Gypsy Moth it's an absolute blast, she's just fun to watch.
