Looking for a new costume for my assault rifle/device blaster pixie. Tactical Pixie.

 

I only request that it has wings.

 

My mind immediately went to the 90s comic trope of oversized guns and pouches. This pixie prefers guns over Fae magic, she might have lost her magic in a bet with a bridge troll. 😄

I used to have a costume that recreated the fairy pet you can summon so that I could summon a mini me.

HI COH community!  I need some costume ideas for my Empath Defender, Madame Mercy.  Her current costume's ok, but I think it could use some tuning up, and I'm having trouble with coming up ideas.  She's magic origin, powersets are Emp/Erg blast.  I envision her as being a modern day cleric, if that helps with costume ideas.  Thanks in advance for any assistence.

I already like this costume, so I mostly just tweaked it a little. I switched some colors around, added the starshot pattern to the pants, gave her a mask, and added shoulder pieces (I wasn't sure whether to use white and gold or blue and gold, but ended up going with blue). I considered doing the sleeves with white gloves, but ultimately decided against it.
I hope you like it!

I believe you're looking for the Suggestions & Feedback forum, this post is where players come to ask other players for advice on costume design.

Hello folks.

Hoping some people skilled with the costume creator can assist me here. I'm trying to create a group of Monster Squad themed characters. I was inspired by the Post Monster Cereals. I'm having a terrible time trying to come up with a Frankenstein's Monster themed character. I just can't seem to find something that really appeals to me.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

 

Thanks!

Hello costume gurus! 

I need some help. I'm trying to get a hajib for a Muslim heroine (from the Levant), but not coming up with anything convincing. No veil, just a modest head covering, not a burqa ensemble. I tried the various hoods but not really satisfied, but perhaps someone can draw my attention to another part(s) that might work or at least be somewhat in the same vein?

I think the standard hood is going to be your best option. The CoT hood would work, but there are not options that allow for a wrap-around appearance around the neck area in Options or in Shoulders.

 

There is a scarf in Capes if you select Long or Short capes, in the options you can choose Scarf. It does not wrap around the neck as I had hoped, but it will have 2 scarf ends replacing what would be a cape.

Maybe combine a hood with the scarf cape option, using the over the shoulder mantle.

 

I looked into that, sadly, the fabric goes across the collarbone area and no higher. It'd be nice if they had a version of the Reaper (in Option 3) that was just around the neck and didn't cover the face. Something along the lines of this:

So, with the advice here for the scarf and the help of Rapture hair, I was able to come up with this:

 

Thanks 🙂

I did come across another alternative in another thread. Though your solution was fantastic. 🙂

I agree, though I suspect that it's limited selectability had more to do with it having been designed specifically to go with the plague doctor mask and hat.  I took an interest in it while scrolling through the hat options and noticed that the ninja hats mostly disappear beneath it to give a tight hood feel, and I can't help but feel that with the right Detail 1 option, it would make an excellent loose-fitting cowl.

 

For example...

You won't find it everywhere.  You have to be in the Hats category and then you'll find it under Detail 2 as Plague Doctor.

thank you! I admit I was helped by a nun costume I saw in Pocket D a while back!

 

oh my goodness, is that an actual cowl? I'm so excited something that's not painted on the skin but actually has its own texture! thank you for pointing this out

I need some help designing an outfit for my new Invul/Martial Arts Tanker.  I have a premise in mind but not enough know-how to do it right.

 

My idea is heavily influenced by The Simpsons episode "Bart vs. Australia" where in the episode corporal punishment in Australia is doled out through "booting", kicking someone in the ass with a giant boot (it's one of their proudest traditions).  Naturally that means asymetrical feet and i've found the Praetoria Police boot on the right to be the best portrayal, but the rest of the costume is eluding me.  I was thinking something that also shouts Australia but being an American I don't exactly have a good idea of that, and the episode was so heavily stereotyped i'm not sure I want to copy it exact.  Essentially I need something that's basically "Australian with giant boot" and I was aiming for something like traditional superhero tights though a Crocodile Dundee look with the boot probably isn't a terrible idea either.

 

I could also use help with a name.  Everything I come up with so far has sounded very stupid.

Given the source of inspiration, a name that sounds very stupid on purpose might actually suit the character.

Can we get the collar from the Cosmic Corsair backpack as its own separate item?
