Some More Character Designs
Next month, I'm going to be playing in an Emerald City M&M game. So I've been in a supers mood lately, and have been playing with Fabrica de Herois again.
Yesterday, I got the idea of seeing how close to some published supers I could get. I did three yesterday in amongst several original designs.
Captain America came out fairly well. One big disappointment was that as far as I can tell, Fabrica 2010 doesn't have a shield you can use anywhere. I would have settled for the kite shield design, but I couldn't find one at all. I guess I could have put a round shield on his back by abusing the circular symbol, but I didn't think of that until just now. But I managed to get the wings on his helmet by abusing a set of pointed ears, so I'm reasonably pleased.
The striped midriff was really tricky, by the way.
EDIT: And I just now noticed I forgot to put the scales on Cap's uniform. Darn.
Spider-Man was remarkably easy. I wish I'd used the option for a thinner body But there was no challenge in the costume panels or the chest emblem. His eyes aren't quite right. I could have messed around a little more to get the black rings around the white lenses if I'd wanted to take the trouble.
And to represent DC a little, here's Captain Marvel. He was dead easy, other than the cape. There's not really a way to get the cape Captain Marvel really wears. It's a very complicated half-cape worn across one shoulder. I settled for the one you see here, which at least has the nifty gold cord.
And as a last treat for the day, here's the costume I'm probably going to use for my character in the M&M game: Mister Amazing! (The "!" is part of his name.)
Mister Amazing is a pulp-type hero who's amazingly (heh) good at all kinds of stuff. His mind and body are at the upper limits of human ability. He's the master of dozens of esoteric disciplines, and inventor of new technologies. Now he's turned his abilities to protecting his adopted home of Emerald City.
