The Look of Custom Stone
What bothers me most about it is the same thing that bothers me about ice.
the limited colors
yes i know we're lucky to have any customization at all but i'd love to be able to have the full spread of colors and not just the ones they deem appropriate to use.
I have a Lava Control/Warmth 'troller and I'm very happy with how Lava looks using a red-orange color.

And the feel of fine Corinthian leather!
There is no such thing as an "innocent bystander"
Custom lava I was meh about but the stone options I really like. On my stone melee brute I managed to get his rock hammer to what I think has a mossy look on it. Though I agree I wish they gave us all colors and not the ones deemed appropiate.
Or even this, texture-wise

I'm holding out for customisable GA. Lava GA ftw.
I have Admiral Abyss, a deep sea diver with the ability to rapidly grow coral
the colored stone controller powers work great for looking like coral
My earth/rad's Animate Stone is black with bright green 'magma' to match the radiation powers. I've gotten compliments on it.

Purple Funktonium Crystals, ftw.

I just wanted to know how folks feel about the options in custom stone/lava costumes? Somehow, to me, they all look like something between pumicite and poo. There seems to be no way to create the same craggy edged look of rock and lava seems to look either reddish-pink to yellowy-orange. I really want to make a magma-type character, but the options just make him seem....yucky.
