I am not sure about the gold in the boots. Here is without it.

If it were me, I'd go with this version. There's a lot going on up top, the solid black bottom balances and grounds it. IMO & all that, naturally 🙂

The game hates me. Someone thought it was a good idea to disallow the Electricity Aura choice for Eyes if you use Think Tank for the head.

 

WHY!!?!!?!!?

 

Edit: OMG!!! I got it!!!!!

 

Behold what could have been now is!!! Its alive!!!!!!

Yeah, it's possible, but you have to trick the costume editor.

 

In case anyone is wondering, you have to start with a regular head-head, pick the head/eyes/hair/whatever aura you want to use, then change the head to the Think Tank -- certain head options lock you out from choosing certain "incompatible" aura options, but if those aura options are already selected, changing the head doesn't de-select them. (The trick works with headless/floating heads, too!)

 Christopher Robin has a contest going where he picks a theme and colors and you make a hero using that stuff.

 

It was shock value and my dad helped me come up with a costume and OMG WE WON!

Pretty in love with my Warshade, Elfvira's, new outfit I made her. Since her first costume slot is her Elvira look-a-like slot, I wanted to do something that maybe has a similar feel, but is a little more unique. Got a compliment on it almost right after finishing it, so that was nice!

Ok guys, so I went a little nuts with the character creator. This is totally not what I set out to create, but the pieces of the outfit just started to fall in place, so I had to run with it.  I REALLY need a good name for this hero/villain. Help me out?

Another theme character who I am thoroughly tickled by and love the outcome. This is The Twisted Cobbler. Her bio is a WIP, but I like to hash the ideas I get out real quick so I don't forget them. Can't wait to actually play this girl!

New costume for my namesake. It's a bit on the nose, but really wanted to lean into the homage factor.

 

...Plus I saw some fan art of Pierce Brosnan as Doctor Fate that truly inspired me... this was the result.

I love that faceplate but have never been able to make it work in any way I've ever liked, not once.  Every time I see it used elsewhere I think "I really should try that again," but then I do and...  I dunno, it might such a distinctive piece (like brain inna jar) that it doesn't actually have a lot of uses, at least to me (I still haven't gotten brain inna jar to work either).

This is one of those perfect moments to show how much the character creator and the costume options have expanded.

In 2005 - that WAS the best that anyone could do as an homage to Dr. Fate. And you did quite well back then!

 

But Mystic Fortune above shows what can be done NOW. 

City of Heroes costume/character creator literally changed the way people saw MMO potential back at release and continued to raise the bar until Sunset. The only one that matches it for options and creativity is Champions Online. But you have to BUY with real money SO many unlocks on that game to GET to all the options - and play a substandard game anyway - why would you do that when you can get THIS for FREE? AND the best Superhero game of all time? 

 

MICROPHONE RELEASED TO GRAVITY'S SWEET EMBRACE. 

 

BOOM!!

I used those colours for my cyberpunk character after watching that Muse movie ...  The movie is pretty trashy, but quite inspiring for character design.

If you're going for that look, I'd put a little of the cyan from the logo on the character - maybe the illuminated strip on the jacket/pants? 

Also, don't be scared to upgrade that purple to bright pink when doing cyberpunks! 

Let's go crazy!
