The first one is pretty nice! However, the stars on the hood, while a pretty close shade, don't look very well, they aren't found anywhere else on the costume. But, I like the way you managed to blend in the vermillion on front trough the use of personal color. It's all fine, except 2 more things: the top of the hood still isn't balanced so well as it is a few shades off from the light grey on the armor, and so is the lower part grey of the prisma tail.
The second is all greatly balanced! However, I've seen the combo several times before. It looks awesome though, and the accessories and PC only make it better. Except the white on the vitakit... it's out of place. :<
On the third one, the vitakit is way too bright, and this is more of a personal preference but the Skelly armors, above 2*, look really bulky. The chromatic is okay, but the forms aren't so great.
And heh, I know how that feels. You're doing great tho. If you do more of these, please take screenshots from further away and a bit from above please? XD The costumes are pretty hard to see properly from the angles you've taken the screenshots from.

Hello
I didn't know you were a costume person. :P
Anyway, I'm not sure what would look best with my Dragon Scale mail. It has a pumpkin bomb bandolier and divine dragon wings. I show some pictures with various helmets. I also have a costume that looks like a tanker's suit, with ear muffs on it! :D All I want to know is this: what accessories should I put on my Salamander mask? Or is the Seerus mask enough?
Here is the link to the album:

That's interesting, most people do.
Err..that's..uhhhh....
Well uh.. the helm is volcanic and armor is toasty... your PC doesn't look great with them, the wings are divine and off-scheme, and the pumpkin bandolier is really just a fishslap over everything.
The rest are just.. no. No.
Fashion's not your thing dawgman...

Replace that volcanic helm with a toasty helm, get a red-ish PC, more divine accessories on it, and I say it will look good :3

Serell, that's just an accessorized cobalt set.
And Poke, both these are pretty nice. vwv They have their flaws, such as the orange on the armor there or the light grey on the chapeau, on first one, or the red on the prismatic dapper combo in second (seriously OOO how long will it take you to fix that? -.- )
Fri, 07/06/2012 - 18:25
#166
hmm...
what if I took out of the cobalt helm for a magic hood, and keep all teh other accesories?
I knew it was a whole set, I just wanted to know if I mixed the cool with the fancy well you boof >.<

#167
Did I just make your eyes bleed?
Sorry if I did.
Really, I don't usually get accessories. I got the wings through a trade of accessories. I really badly wanted the dragon wings at the time, so I accepted any type. Now I know that divine wings are crap on my armor. >.< The thing is, I don't want to take them off. I don't want to lose them. What should I do to make look better? I'm willing to scrap any other accessories, but not the wings, unless I can get my hands on volcanic wings. You see, I'm the guild master of fire. I need toasty/volcanic.
EDIT: ya, the PC doesn't look so good. Should I get red instead?

Checkered Bombhead Mask Costume Ideas?
Recently I won a checkered bombhead mask in a lockdown match and I'm having trouble trying to create a costume with it. Any ideas?

Checkered Bombhead?
Ash Tail Coat, maybe? Just an idea, although I don't know much about costumes. I'm no expert, really, but that's just something I thought that might look okay with it. I have an Iron Bombhead mask, and the 2* cobalt armor looks sorta nice with it.

So my current costume I am working on is Ice Queen mail with an icebreaker helm, and I am trying to think of accessories for it.
What I'm thinking (all cool/divine):
Vented Visor
Spike Mohawk
Scarf
Canteen
Perhaps a ghostly aura, the snowfall ones sell to fast for me for get them, and aren't cheap.
Or my second idea:
Vented visor
Haedband+ Helm guards for Earmuffs
Scarf
Same on armour.
Which one sounds better to you? (Yes, I'm going for an Ice theme).
Sat, 07/07/2012 - 13:47

The second one sounds better Imo.

@Serell
There was no cool there to begin with. And replacing it with a magic hood.. pix plz.
@Autofire
It's best to try and sell. You cannot be a firey leader anymore once you put those since they are divine. What you could do to fix it would be getting a toasty helm. If you wanna be more dragon-y just go full dragon set I guess. Divine canteen/parry blade; divine goggles, mustache, pipe; divine spike mohawk. Would be like Xai except divine. Nothing too great fashion-wise but does look good.
Stop giving advice. I highly dislike that. This is not your thread.
@Tunderbog
WHAT IS
@Aceress
Preview some Cobalt lines, Magic Cloak would be too common and would look good only with cobalt PC, and hmm.. I can't really just say things off the bat like that right now, I'd need to have the helm in front of me and stuff.
@Frosty
Okay? Go to the bazaar if you wanna buy something.

Ok, well.... If it's not cool, I don't really know what theme the 2* cobalt is. So it's just neutral and can go with anything? I'll get some more pics later with some variations and stuffs.

Hey, for the skelly samurai suit with the maedate and plate mail, use spiral eyes. The look pretty legit.
Terka;
"First one is just an arcane set."
NUH UH. It has wings. I forgot to mention the prismatic canteen, canteens look good on chroma because they have a hip pack on one side but not the other.
ALSO; New set. Quicksilver helm + dusker. Great and matching for T2 PVP, makes you look like a kendo fighter if you've got a sword.

Cobalt doesn't have a theme, it's just cobalt. Grey. No, it doesn't go with anything.

Does that mean the costume I set up was horrible and didn't match?
All you said earlier was that it was a cobal set with accessories.
That didn't say it was bad, it just said it was uncreative.
Dang it Ters give me your full opinion of my costume, it's late, I'm tired, and I think I'm going insane >:O

I like to have one of each
I like to have one of each color. Two of white, I suppose...and I do love the coats.
First: Heavenly Iron Helm + Snarbo Coat (fancy HMD, cool wide vee, fancy side blade, fancy parrying blade)
Second: Sonic Helm + Blast Demo Suit (military spike mohawk, military game face)
Third: Divine Veil + Skolver (heavy vents, toasty glasses, cool wings, cool canteen)
Fourth: Tailed Proto Helm + Scary Skelly (Regal Knight Vision, regal Headband)
Fifth: Volc Demo helm + Vog (volcanic maid headband, toasty m.wings, toasty vented visor, toasty wings, toasty canteen)
Sixth: Quicksilver helm + Vita Plus (heavy mechtennas, heavy vitakit, vanguard crest)
Been thinking of swapping out the HIM fancy HMD, but I kind of like it combined with the two blades (and it was raised from a Seraphic where it fit a bit better). And yeah, I realize that DV/Skolver and a Jelly/Vita combo isn't exactly the rarest of costumes, I put this pic together for a totally different reason :)

Ok, I said I would be back after it's done, but
How do you think this is, for starts?
I'm thinking of changing to PC to something that is redish, or maybe orange? About the wings, I do like having wings, but the toasty ones are quite expensive. I am still reluctant to clip them, BTW. >.< I dunno why, as bad as they look on this outfit. Because I don't like having a big head, maybe I'll get a tall height mod.
Mon, 07/09/2012 - 18:07
#186
no, no no no no
That helm is toasty but wolver line helms look awkward on everything except wolver coats. Maybe.... get a ruby bombhead? And if you can replace your front accessory with a divine one (canteen, bomb bando, parrying blade). And then.... I'm thinking you should get a divine ribbon, maybe a divine scarf, possibly a flower as well.
Sorry Ters about trying to give advice on your thread x3
Mon, 07/09/2012 - 23:19
#187
They do?
The wolver caps do? Oh, and I was thinking of getting RID of the wings. I want to look toasty, not divine. I'm trying to get rid of the divine stuff. Anyway, besides the ruby bombhead, the wolver cap seems like the only one other than dragon. I don't want to wear full dragon, because than it would be just, um, full dragon. Anyway, I did notice how big the wolver head is, but a tall height mod might fix this, I think.
Drat, this is Ters's guide thread. Not a discussion thread over costumes. >.< Maybe I should make a new thread for us to talk about it so we don't clutter it up. :\
Tue, 07/10/2012 - 05:53
#188
Serell, get out. Now. You know I hate and don't tolerate that.
It looks pretty good, but yes a Ruby bombhead would be better probably. If you want, go on get rid of the wings. But afterwards, stick to toasty accessories. A vermillion color will help the costume.
And that's fine. We can discuss costumes too.

Alrighty, finally I'm a little less busy, I can get to replying to you guys!
@Dawnstrike
In the first one, the armor is SHADOW themed, and the helmet is it's own theme too. The accs don't really help. It's a lost costume. :(
Second one, well I've seen that combo lots, and the military accessories really don't help. It's not military-themed.
Third one, I've seen that a million times too. It doesn't match too well either, the blue on the helm being left by itself (no, the cool accs don't help, it's not the same blue). The VVs are just.. bad.
Fourth one scares me. Q_Q It's not only the Double Tailed helmet on the bulky skelly suit, it's also that binocular visor...!
Fifth one is a little more decent, however, the wings are canteen and heavy, the theme of the armors is volcanic. The maid headband doesn't look so good either.
Sixth one, I've seen that WAY too much now. Q_Q It does look good, but dang it's everywhere.
@Blakk
The first one is okay, the PC is pretty good and the armors kinda match except for a few "loose" colors, but it's okay.
In the second one however, the accessories make no sense, the armor and helmet don't fit at all and it just looks plain bad.
@Blazer
It is normal for different armors to go together if they have the same themes. I've seen that costume a lot ever since Fruits won the first contest so it's nothing new. It does look good though, yes.
In the second one, that's the bad kind of contrast. It makes no sense. It's a perfectly fine costume but those 2 accs really put it off. :c
@Magnicth
It's pretty good, but the helmet accessories save for the glasses don't match since they have wholly different colors. The clipping is fine to me. The armor and helmet themselves don't look great together though...
@Dragunity
First off, the helmet and armor have completely different themes. :(
The armor is dusky, and I see you've put dusky accessories on it (just like my violet tab haha, except I have Dusky D Wings), and the helmet is cool. Your PC does help though but really, they don't go well together. :(
The flower just tops it. x_x

My currently Costume
I thought we shouldn´t create boring costumes with the same themes? Mine is creative.I dont care what u say >:)
First one is just an arcane set.
That sounds good however I recall seeing it several times before so it's not exactly unique.
Oh god the overused-ness is blinding me. Not so sure bout the 'dolier but I haven't actually seen the costume.
Sigh, another one... really that's getting uncreative.
