not so good at color schemes and stuff so i want to know if this will make a good costume set.
i was gonna mak the costume with Spiral Spy but the Ah pretty much had everything i needed.

Almirian Crusader Set
Frosty Toupee (cuz i dont like sportin that skelly bald look)
Vents, not sure if it will look too cartoonish with hair
Wings (got them from frosty box!)
Bmb Bandoliar, not sure. maybe another front accessory.
Small Mod - 50k from that bazaar guy
Happy Eyes. or maybe i should get Determined.

Admittedly, there is a distinct line between looking like you know what you're doing, and looking like you just spent $20 on the game.

I'm personally an advocate of "less is more." If you fill out every accessory slot you have, then (more often than not) you just look like you have too much money.

Almirian set is... ehh... It's more of a blatant show off. If you want to look pro, yeah you can wear it, but it's more of "look at how AWESOME and RICH I am." If you want to look "pro," I'd go for just looking good overall instead of getting the most expensive things on one character at the same time.

Pick a theme, and use this link to find some equipment that goes with whatever theme you pick. Then, stick to it, getting accessories that look good, instead of just filling out accessory slots. I'd go with something like Military to best match your Personal Color. If you still want to go overboard with accessories, try starting with the Fused Demo Helm. That's a simple helm that has a lot to work with.

Isn't it a little early to be

Isn't it a little early to be worried about LOOKING good (almirian crusader? and you're still in the new users' board?) when you should focus on PLAYING good?

No idea why Canine-Vladmir is

No idea why Canine-Vladmir is posting in new recruits. If this is the same player I play with, they are far from Noob. Quite pro in fact.

It's personal taste, but vents and eyes look horrible there.

Processing Thoughts of You Always

I am not a fan of the vents.

In addition, I'd say that Almirian was more Volcanic-themed than anything else, what with the colour of those baggy pants, and the helmet always seems to look odd no matter what you do with it. The toupee is a good start at fixing it, although you might want a different-coloured one - possibly Hallow? I would probably pass on that shade of wings. The bomb bando looks fine on the armour; however, when you have large patches of the Frosty colour you realise they're more blue instead of grey.

I don't really think so. You look intimidating and awesome I see nothing wrong with that. In fact I've already started! I already got an Azure bombhead mask after a LD marathon and I got a frosty scarf attached (looks hipster and I'm hipster). Also I have a dusker coat which I attached a frosty crest on and I am planning on attaching some divine valk wings or divine wolver tail? (That dusker's gonna be skolver so you may see where I am going. I am also planning on getting a quicksilver under that bombhead mask and I shall attach a mowhawk maybe so I look badass in LD.

Back to the point tis ok to plan this early.
