Attache

CR -

#1 You study the costume pieces too damn much! . But smooth would be up atop the shoulders, no?

#2 I see what your getting at here but don't think it's an issue I would have thought about if not pointed out... I think the overall pic screams fire and being a big picture guy that works for me . Though, if I was quizzed and there was money on it... I may have guessed electric due to that, and because I'd have assumed it was a trick question

#3 I don't get this at all. 0.o

@Caemgen:

#1 Yes that is what I mean by it's a combination of the Smooth and Valkyrie#3 it has attributes of both but isn't a total match with either. This of course only matters to someone really familiar with the CC... they still look cool as is.

#2 Yeah again it's not that there is anything bad with the image it still looks great but there are no electrical type powers in the Fire/Fire sets and no Ancillary pools with a scrapper that I can think of that have electric attacks either so it's one of those things that make you go "hmmm I wonder what that's doing in this picture" it just looks out of place to me... must just be OCR.

#3 In the OP if you real below the picture Red said she fell off her stool when she saw it.

#2 If I knew nothing of the character and someone showed me this image and asked what kind of scrapper I thought is was I would guess Electric. Sure there are a lot of reds, oranges and such in the costume and atmosphere but I'm curious why a Fire/Fire hero would have what looks like electricity fx on his hand rather than say a fireball?

#3 You sit on a stool?
1. Yes, Thermocouple wears the Valk 3 shoulder pieces, and technically, looked at from that angle they would seem to have a point at the top of the shoulder. (Though not that prominent, and Valk 3 only have one plate.)

2. I noticed this as well, and BAKART told me that he was taking a few liberties. Thinking about it, I realized that fire is not always that awe-inspiring, and I look at it more as a plasma ball forming. I chose to not have it changed.

3. Yes, at work, I sit on a stool. :þ

Edit: And no, I don't milk cows...

It's all one page to me... my forums settings show 100 posts per page... it makes for a lot less clicking next/previous page all the time.

1. Yes they do come to a point up top (I didn't say that part was wrong)
The Valkyrie #3 are however a 2 plate shoulder piece unless I am missing something.

The Smooth are a one plate and that is why I think it looks like a hybrid.

2. If this piece of Thermocouple is any indication I think he could make some pretty sweet fire fx but hey as long as it works for you that is all that matters.
I was just pointing it out in case it was an oversight.

3. That's "udderly" ridiculous.

Hmm, and yet Thermocouples armour (which I checked last night, and it is Valk 3) does not have that lower plate, as can be seen here:



An oddity, to be sure.

Oh I know why, it's the fact that you have the robotic arm torso rather than the normal human arms.
The CC removes the lower plate when you choose robotic to accommodate some of the different arms that stick out and would cause clipping.

So as a tax season bonus to myself, I just got minor little piece of work of my Fire/Fire Scrapper, Thermocouple. Barely noteworthy really, but I thout you folks here might like to take a gander.

*falls off stool, stunned at how awesome this turned out*

O.O
Wow, that is seriously nice looking.
