I finished a costume in the AH today :) but I'm not sure if it's original or good. So, everyone can you plz critique and/or praise my armor before I buy all the accessories and stuffz? :/ Thx in advance to everyone! Bai from Platipie :)
The Armor!!!!! http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198044484560/screenshot/57896338...
Updated Armor!!!(bonus armor too) http://imgur.com/a/apRCZ
P.S. How do you put a link into a word?
I'm not rich enough to change my PC :P but I might change it later on. I didn't know why I put a bando, but I wanted to get rid of the random scale thing. So, what can I use instead, or should I leave it blank?
It's an okay costume that could use a fair amount of work. Honestly, I just like your name better.
That's why I'm posting this picture on the forums. I'm hoping that I can get tips on how to improve it not just plain "that thing is so ugly, medusa was turned into stone" comments ;)
Looks good. IMO i like the bomb bando on it, but that is a personal preference for me. The scale armor has a 'breastplate' that makes it more feminine. Me being a guy (and thus pawn being male) i like to use bomb bando's to cover up the breastplate effects. Also, i think the bomb bandolier makes the armor match the helm. W/out it, then i'd see too many scales and thus a clash of palette. The vitakit serves a similar purpose imo, and the vitakit is fun...because it's a vitakit. Personally like helm-mounted display+com unit.
Given your funds i'd say u did a good job. Personally, my favorite costumes have a contrasting colors, but for all those who prefer a monochromatic color scheme you are right on point. Nothing earth-shattering here, but solid work :)
I was making a cheap costume that can still look nice :) later on if I got enough moneys, I'll make a costume that literally yells out THIS IS SPARTA!!! But still, I has no money to go all out on nice gear and high-end accessories :( but if I get to that point, I hope my costumes will be fabulous like bechamel
I feel like I just got stabbed... Multiple times... The the head... And the knives were explosive. But its ters, what can I expect from a designer? By the looks of the comments, I should make a new costume. :( TIME TO MESS WITH SPIRAL SPY AGAIN
It was ten letters. AND you asked for critiques. If you want artillery aimed at your head, see us in Amu-Sol. If you want a little critique, do this. You got it. Not everyone's pretty dress up will be nice. Some of Tersakaff's and Mawashimono's I actually sometimes dispute with. But hey, it's the eye that beholds the beauty. If you think it looks good, wear it. If you want to look good for a specific audience, find that specific audience. I am ranting right now because you thought those ten letters were explosive dynamite or something. That's nothing. And you asked for them. Asked.
Thank you, and have a nice day. Now I'll be going back to reading Series of Unfortunate Events...
no, I just felt like I didn't get any tips from those ten letters. I stated in a previous comment, that did not have money to change the PC and simply previewing it on AH will not mean I will get it. I visited Amu-Sol once, and your guy's artillery involved spear and staplers, not explosive knives :D Have a complimentary cookie for your workers(slaves) teaching me how much I hate shock (::)
He said it'd be decent if you just changed your PC (total cost: 50kcr). Seems like a tip to me.
Derpules must be pretty rich, then. I drop Crowns every time I trip, but I am pretty sure I do not drop that kind of loot...
Sorry if I was not clear, but I was wondering what made it not decent in the first place. is it the bomb bando? Or the random blue in the com unit? I can't really afford a color change at the moment. D: I'll take donations though derpules ;)
>100k cr
>can't change PC
You asked for critique I gave it. It's an alright costume but only with Cobalt PC. That's a tip. I could give it in 2 words too: Cobalt PC.
Regardless, by the way you talk about it you don't seem to know much what you've actually done there. :(
In the pic, I was simply experimenting with what was available at the moment. I just sold some Valkyrie wings so I have more budget :) i have around 300 k so now I can now buy a PC change and now I'm trying to reinvent it. Trying to go along the theme of a dragon knight. :P
i know that feeling of changing the PC for one costume. Good luck and post your final idea so we can all see!
I'm thinking of removing the bomb bandolier becuz I see what other people are saying, it doesn't fit the theme and looks out of place. If I manage to get some cool dragon wings I might use that instead of a vitakit and I'm replacing the plume with a long feather. :) still expirementing but that is the current state and might be revised even further.
IMO, feathers look bad. On everything. But hey, that's just my opinion and I'm no fashion expert.
Bomby is fine. I'm again feather too though, it makes no sense.
Ok, I'm reverting to a plume, but is there any style that has a light blue plume? I want to balance the color a bit. :/ cool comes up with a light grey. but should I use dragon wings or bomby? Both on at the same time seems like too much accessories on a costume for me
I suggest nothing or a scarf. No plume truly matches, if I'm not mistaken. Dusky might be off a lil'.
Bomby, dragon wings cover up too much grey.
I'm wondering cuz I heard they might be expensive. :(
Switched the bomb to canteen, removed head back accessory altogether, switched to Cobalt PC :) Should I keep canteen or switch back?
But its ters, what can I expect from a designer?
I didn't realize matching predefined colour schemes made you a designer these days.
With the new costume: It looks pretty nice to me, just a bit dull with the gray/blue scheme. Nothing is very wrong in my opinion with this one.
I didn't know shoes are sold in crates nowadays ;) Also, I'm reverting back to a bando.
Oh, Scarves cost a fortune, mostly because they're rare and the only head back accessory of value.
I got rid of the scarf due to budget and some clipping issues. I really hate any sort of clipping...
Added minor changes to costume (secret!). + added desired armor pics if i become a derpules rich person
I'll say my opinion on the costume. I'm going to be critical, fair-warning, but that doesn't mean it's bad:
-Your PC doesn't match the blue in your costume... at all.
-The bandolier doesn't seem to work with the Com Unit and Helm-Mounted Display (What are you going for?)
On the bright side:
-The gray on your armor works nicely
-The blue on the vitakit works with the armor
Overall, aside from your PC, it looks pretty nice. It gives a little of an explorer theme, if that's what you're trying to do.
