  1. Just a suggestion, if I get a bigger screenshot of the first guy I might be able to think of a better name for him. I can't really see his details.
  2. For the first guy: The Sapphire Quiver

    For the second guy: the Nationalist

    Oh Cashoo, don't feel bad. I am the worst gamer of all time. I'm sure I'll faceplant long before you do, but I'll continue to crack jokes long after my corpse has rotted on the pavement.
  4. Wow, that is a totally different way then I thought this would go, and I love it. Hericane that is awesome. Almost 360 on what I thought Memories was but it's still super cool. I imagined Memories as a sort of quasi guardian of thoughts from another realm but this is a much better bio for him. Too much better......*sabotages Hericane's computer* That'll teach you to make something awesome for me.

    In all seriousness this is great, I really like it.
  5. Sweet tat! And a very touching story, I would get a tat someday if I had something that important in my life.
  6. If I can ever get the test server patched (that's one big file) I'll be there. I want that sig banner!

    Nice EnnVee. Now, get to work making me a new costume, preferably something expressing my inner self.

    I am, though I generally don't listen in. I mostly just talk to my SG mates and occasionally some other people, like the people in the forums.
  9. Okay, my turn.

    I was paired up with Hericane and she asked me to use her toon Lady Hericane. Here's what she looked like before I began my magic.

    Lady Hericane (I apologize I couldn't figure out how to implant the images into the post without stealing them from Hericane).

    As for her bio, here's a condensed version: Lady Hericane comes from an alternate dimension, Where her home planet of Aldana was not destroyed by the Rikti. After the Rikti attack failed the first time, she volunteered for a military research program which ended up giving her the powers to gather energy from her surroundings and project it at her foes. She continued to use these powers in service to the Aldanian military until she was displaced on earth in our dimension in a enemy attack. Once here she decided to help Earth against the current Rikti attacks.

    Now, ladies and gentlemen, I bring you what I tried to do to her looks.



    I saw that she had a sort of futuristic or extraterrestrial battle armor with two to three main colors. I tried to copy that while keeping her signature look in place. I realized too late I forgot about the tiara but I think even without it it looks good. It was best I thought to stay close to a distinct tight, sleek battle armor.
  10. I am a dude, though I am part dudette seeing as I'm a gaymer.

    And like Foo said, I am one of those tiny sugary candies from Wonka.

    Free art?

    My advice, like posted before, get involved and be freindly. Contests can often land you with something interesting, even if it's not what you thought it would be. Also, be on the lookout for threads such as Foo's "spread the love" thread. and if you're not the most creative (like me) try to think outside the box as to how you can contribute. I am not talented in literal art but I design costumes in game for people who agree to do art for me or provide them with a teaming partner or in general help them in game how I can. If you make freinds in this forum you'll be surprised at what comes your way. Thanks to EnnVee who tipped me off to these great threads I like to think I'm making my presence at least slightly known and already one or two people have offered to help me out. Just get involved, think of how you can contribute, and be patient.

    If you're new here, welcome to the party. I hope you brought chips and ice cream.

    If you like that one with Freakshow then you gotta see this one lol --->
    OMZ Hahahah
    Who knew they made such good back up dancers.

    You can do a youtube search and find several of them or PM me if you want more obscure ones.
    FYI Some of the very best are made by Samuraiko, Mr Abyss and the Trimmers.
    My personal favorite machinimas feauring CoX are the ones that were done by Moon Hill Productions. I don't think he does them anymore because most of them seem quite old. But anyway if you like them her's my personal favorite: Your Superpowers and You

    Btw, Cashoo, those freakshow sketches are fantastic. Keep it up.
  13. Same for me. Bayani, I'm still waiting on you to call in my favor. Hit me up on Pinnacle and I'll help you with influence, a damage dealer to help you how I can, or a body bag for badge achieving.
  14. I'm Aluminum Dave the real Aluminum Dave, all you Other Aluminum Daves are just pretenders. So will the Real Alumium Dave please stand up?

    Seriously this is weird. Has it finally happened? Have the forums......GONE TO THE AMERICANS????!!!!!!
  15. From what I know about costumes I can give you this advice for going slightly classic, keep it simple.

    Tight is your freind when it comes to this. Spandex is good, or one of the more simple designs such as the Ulterior for a sleek armor design or Samurai tights for a more light armor look. Stay away from wild designs such as Circuitry, Googie (I think that's it's name) or Perplex. Stick to simple curves and designs such as the pattern ones, Sharp or Fat stripe 1. this is what I can give you for advice on designing your look.

    As for color, this probably goes without saying, but have one bright color and one darker one to contrast it for your mains, and have one accent color to use hwere needed such as emblems, belts and shoulders.

    Hope this can at least give you some direction.

    just a bust for Maynia:


    And something non-COH, Freaky Fred from Courage the Cowardly Dog (Which is an amazing show, too), translated into my style.
    That picture of Fred is going to give me nightmares. Such evil that it seems.......naughty.

    Good job Cashoo. You have successfully made a creepy cartoon character ten times creepier.

    It smells constantly of cow pies. There's an old saying around Boulder, where I live for the next 3 months, just an hour north of Denver, that if it smells like Greeley a storm's coming.

    Also, whereabouts in Colorado? Not trying to stalk you or anything, but just hoping (for the sake of your nose) that it's not Greeley.
    Seconded. Also if you're moving into one of the towns near Denver you may have someone willing to help you get a meet and greet for that area going.

    What are you looking at me for?
  19. Hi Artist People,

    I need anyone interested in helping me with a top secret project to PM me. I do not want to talk about it here since the internet has ears for everyone. I will say it will make some certain people exert certain emotions, and also I am only able to pay for these services through a measly amount of influence on Pinnacle if at all.

    Please PM me if you are interested and of a kind heart, I will make sure when all is said and done you will be given proper credit and be given a big place in my heart.

    Remember this is top secret, so if you post in this thread be careful what you reveal and be careful who you talk to about this.

    Thanks for your consideration.

  20. I'll give it a try, though I may be giving you one of those weird and ugly jack o lanterns you get when you use other squash type vegetables.
  21. I'm in again, had a lot of fun last time. Costumes are the one thing I can be an arteest at.

    Let me in and I give you what's behind door number 2.
