This is a great thread, because of the love/hate relationship I have with requests...At the one hand, I seldom have enough courage to ask one, at the other hand I love people drawing my characters...
So, artists, please visit this directory, pick a character you like, and draw itOfcourse you should feel free to ask for more shots and/or details of any one character

Hellwolve; MK? Not following right now...
[/ QUOTE ]
MK, as in, short for "Mortal Kombat", the game. IMO the version that's up sounds somewhat like it's main theme. -
Sounds great, Major
MK theme inspired, perhaps?

Also, I hope you realize this'll lead to a big pile of requests

I've got my list ready, gimme your e-mail and I'll send you some sample pictures
[/ QUOTE ]
Do you mean you'd do a request for me? If so,
And either way: j.v.d.bos@gmail.com -
Great pic, great shading, great lines
...and some above average measurements here and there, but that's nice, too
Also, I hope you realize this'll lead to a big pile of requests -
Oooh, that's nice
In the mean time, I've found a solution...Here's the new naming scheme:
Assault Bot:
War Serpent Rex
Protector Bots:
Aegis Viper Chi
Aegis Viper Psi
Battle Drones:
Havoc Adder Ion
Havoc Adder Rho
Havoc Adder Tau
Went with Greek letter names, fits nicely -
[ QUOTE ]
May I suggest this web site?
[/ QUOTE ]
Nice suggestionI'll have a look there.
But, do you or anyone else know actual words? Perhaps I should've been more specific, but for my Robo MM, I'm renaming his bots.
The Assault Bot has become War Serpent Rex, the Battle Drones will be Havoc Adder and the Protector Bots Aegis Viper. For the Adders and Vipers I've got three letters to be able to distinguish them

As for a Necro team: KIA, MIA, DOA, AW(O)L, AFL, POW
[/ QUOTE ]
Killed In Action, Missing In Action, Dead On Arrival, Absence Without Leave, Prisoner Of War. AFL is the only one I don't get, I could do the rest without any GooglingJust so you know
-
For once, I'll be using this thread to ask for help with naming...Does anyone know of any cool sounding three letter designations? Preferably connected to each other and atleast three of 'em

I apploud you for trying, Silver_Weasel

Yup...I supose that one was obvious
[ QUOTE ]
Too many possibles
[/ QUOTE ]
Yeah, you're right...I'll just spill the beans: Richard Ramirez, Satanist, amongst other things.
[ QUOTE ]
Damien being the Antichrist; Faust as the guy who sold his soul.
Astaroth being one of the Great Old ones.
[/ QUOTE ]
All those are correct...I think my Thug ones are too obscure
[ QUOTE ]
Unsure, Durant (no e) would be Darkman...
[/ QUOTE ]
Not where I got it -
I got me a Thug/Dark MM, too...He's called Demon Desperado and these are the names:
Thugs:
Aleister
Durante
Richard
Enforcers:
Damien
Faust
Bruiser:
Astaroth
I have a cookie for the first person to get all the 'sources' of those names -
((After having my Scrapper get beaten by a Gunslinger for the umpteenth time, I decided to make a Gunslinger inspired Mastermind with a slight twist. For kicks and giggles, I'd like to present to you all his 'biography', (hopefully) for your reading pleasure. IC it's a file your Hero/Villain managed to pull out of a computer used by the Malta Group.))

SERVICE RECORD
15/03/1996: In a recent covert recruitment operation within the FBI, CIA and [CLASSIFIED], [CLASSIFIED] was discovered. After careful observation, it was noted the candidate fits our profile. Contact was made swiftly and the candidate seemed keen on working with us.
01/04/1996: The procedures have been finished. [CLASSIFIED] is now our newest recruit.
23/09/1999: After an exemplary time of working with us, [CLASSIFIED] was promoted to the rank of Gunslinger, obtaining the new Primary Alias of Omega Chimera Black, as well as the increased Security Clearance for the rank.
27/10/2001: In an MHI involving the meta-human Hellwolf, a full unit of Tactical Operatives, one Operation Officer and one Operation Engineer, under the command of Omega Chimera Black, was destroyed. Omega Chimera Black himself barely survived and is now undergoing treatment in our medical facility in [CLASSIFIED].
05/11/2001: The medical staff of the facility have tried, and failed, at preserving Omega Chimera Black his arms; the tissue and bone damage was too severe. They have been amputated. The medical staff have increased the surveillance to detect, prevent and minimize related mental damage.

08/01/2007: Arachanos Operatives have freed, amongst other meta-humans, Omega Chimera Black from the Ziggurat. He is on the loose again. Continue the hunt.

Project_Olle, thanks for agreeing
To put some positive input in this thread: I really think MM primaries should be more or less generic, so that you can fit many character concepts to them. With all the current ones you already have it. As an example, Mercs. You've got your villain hiring more muscles, the ex-general taking some of his boys with him when he defects, the mind controlling alien entity who has captured some meat shields, etc.
I really feel two things: one, they should keep the 'genericness' for future powersets (thugs have that IMO) and two, they should make a set of every origin. Natural is covered with mercs, ninjas and soon thugs, we've got zombies for Magic and robots for Technology.
So, by my reasoning, they should make two extra Magic and Tech ones, and add three more for Mutant and Science.
...giving us the grand total of 15 MM primaries
I know that's kinda impossible, but atleast give us one mutant and one science based one -
The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, fourth edition, says you're wrong:
The word 'genius', from Dictionary.com
EDIT:
Bah, slightly too late :P -

...and might I comment that I've heard a lot of comments that us Dutch (in general) use better English than most English people?
[/ QUOTE ]
I've got a theory on that: we learn to use the language and therefor pay extra attention when using it; we're inherently worried about misusing a foreign language. English people don't have that worry; it's the same, I think, with non-Dutchies learning to speak Dutch. -
When we're talking new MM powersets, I'd rather have one or all of the following:
-A demon based primary, for all us evil wizards and CoT wannabe's
-A fire based secondary for those that take the above primary
-A monster/mutants based primary, for all the evil scientists. -
There's a reason Word has a spelling checker :P
Plus, I'm Dutch too...'S not an excuse for faulty spelling :P -
