Thanks Mr J! I'm really pleased with how both versions came out. Better than I had anticipated from the original sketches he sent me

Another character I'll be playing in V&V, for a campaign run by one of the other players. His name is Mindstorm:

Mindstorm looks incredible! His 'costume' is cool without being the spandex of a typical superhero. The double-breasted coat (if that is correctly describing it) really makes the look work!

Great stuff. Thanks for sharing!

His look is pretty much taken from the former lead singer of one of my favorite metal bands. Part of his background is that he leads a "cult" of sorts, and can actually gain small boosts from them (or at least he will once he adds the power). I didn't want a traditional costume for someone like that, and went with a more metal head look instead

Knaak makes certain to clarify for the novices on the market activities which may stop known if you don't stick to the witty or perhaps see the publications.

Hey Greenough. Are you related to GOLD GUY? I ask because your post makes no sense, and you have suspicious-looking 'gold' links in your signature...

It's a spambot

Thanks for the confirmation, urbwar. I thought so. My Lightning Senses were crackling.

Kris just sent this image for a character named Dragonfly. Other than the fact he made the wings artifical looking (they're supposed to be natural), and the suit's color will likely change to blue (he's a surfer dude, so I feel blue works better), it came out pretty good:

Very awesome picture! I agree that a blue hue would look really cool for Dragonfly. The name works really well as a super name!

With the harness on the character, the wings look cool as a flying device concept. It would be cool if the artist could give them a kind of semi-transparent appearance!

He all ready sent me a revision with the costume blue, and the wings transparent and with lines in it. The harness was removed as well. Looks much better.

His wings are supposed to be natural, as he was mutated (like most characters with an insect motif). He's part of a group of anti-heroes known as The Others. The rest of them are also pretty interesting looking too.

Love Dragonfly!

Thanks Storn! I'll be sure to let Kris know you liked it

Next member of The Others is Waxwork. In the vein of Clayface, Waxwork was mutated into this hideous looking creature, but can change his appearance and other things with his new liquid-like form. This version has a different color scheme than the final version does, but wanted to share this because the image is awesome.

MrJupiter · Post by **MrJupiter** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 6:36 pm

I agree. Waxworks looks fantastic! Great choice for a name, too.
