Hero Maker: Back from the Dead

[Lye]

I don't know if any of the oldbies remember this thing, but I want to dig out the old Hero Maker. For those of you that don't remember this, get to messing around with it. You can make a "Drawing" of your hero with a matter of a few clicks. Granted, your options aren't limitless, but here is an example of what I did to make a close Lye.

Hero Maker Classic (Beginner) (http://www.heromachine.com/heromachine-1-1/) & Hero Maker 2.5 (Intermediate) (http://www.heromachine.com/heromachine-2-5-character-portrait-creator/) & Hero Maker 3.0 (Advanced) (http://www.heromachine.com/heromachine-3-lab/)

Click here (http://www.heromachine.com/category/hall-of-fame/) if you want to see what the Hero Maker 3.0 can do. There are some pretty impressive characters!

Click the links above for beginner through advanced, play around, lets post what you can make of your character!

[Solar Haven]

I think I love you Lye.... yet hate you... I am now going to be spending FOREVER on this >.> will post pictures when I am done

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Well, after a wee while fiddling with it, I have this for Aur.

[Lye]

Awesome. Remind me how Aure gets with the ladies so often?

[Solar Haven]

Well here was a quick stab in the dark with Leoric.

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Awesome. Remind me how Aure gets with the ladies so often?

Incredible charisma, mate... and a nine-inch tongue.

[Lye]

Right, the tongue. I forgot the tongue. I'm sure the right words just warm them up, lol.

Solar, Leoric looks badass. Nice job! Makes my character look sub par, y'jerk. XD

[Solar Haven]

Hey now, each person has their own style :p yours just happens to be sub par :p

But Rough and Tough bar brawler has been born... I don't like his head.... but they don't give you many options

[BlackAndBlueEyes]

Played around a bit in 2.5, and here's what I came up with for Maddy

3169

[Dr. Why]

It didnt go well. Trying it with 2.0 later.

3170

[Musashi]

Well. I'm off to Version 3 now I have a basic grasp.

3171

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

I've been on version 3 for over an hour. Annoyed though, because half the leg options it gives you can't have boots or armour put on them.

[Solar Haven]

What you could do is export all the parts to photoshop and mix and match and resize until they do work

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Nope.

<--- techtarded

[Lye]

Lol, I haven't dabbled in 3.0. There are a ton of settings and I will need a few hours of uninterrupted time to go through it all. I'm a quick learner, but some of those flash systems can be rather clunky.

Musashi, I'm liking the Scottish samurai look you got going there! Looks like he's not to friendly with strangers.

[Musashi]

I was just playing around. Thought I'd give him a Scottish look, for the ladies.

Version 3, Crouching: Not totally worth it. But I like it. Not totally done, But wanted to show it's do able.
3172

[Luned]

I ran out of time, but this was pretty fun to play with.

* Ew, forgot how terrible the attachments are.

[Silence Sei]

OH MY GOD! I'VE BEEN ROLEPLAYING LUNED WITH HANDS THIS ENTIRE TIME!

IM SO SO SO SO so SO SORRY!

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Work in progress, using 3.

Lye, thank you for this. :P

Erikar (http://imgur.com/lt254Cj)

Damn file is too large. I dislike the limited head and body choices, he's way too bricky and muscular. But you get the gist.

[Lye]

The website has a few other editors including a Real Life and Sexy Pinup. Haven't looked at those yet. Might have more body types but limited fashions.

[Musashi]

Too good to not upload.


3174

Not even sorry.

[Lye]

I... Have no words...

[Musashi]

Magestic?

[Silence Sei]

Very

[Lye]

Work in progress, using 3.

Lye, thank you for this. :P

Looking good Aure! Hope that helps you out of your funk. :)

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

It actually is helping me get back in the mood.

So, cheers mate.

[Ashla]

(Well, it took me like, an hour, to finally get this done, so I hope it looks good :P)
(I know, I know, she doesn't look that impressive, but Ashla is going through a heap of "character development" right now ("Masquerade", "On the Concept of Hatred"... ... So it won't be long now 'till...)
3175

[hoytti]

I made one for Timoth Gold, it's now his profile picture. but it was done in 2.5.3176

[Noir.]

3182

Had to make one.

Her hands are freakishly big but those are the only hands with "claw" type weapons-ish.


UPDATED!

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

More progress on Aur.

[Musashi]

This eye sore is my runner for an RP game that twitch runs when he can make it through.

Lye has ended my life.

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Squiggy, that eyesore will live a long and happy life - because the enemy will kill themselves laughing at that shirt.

Also: after ten hours, here we are.

[Erikar]

I made another model for Erikar, I like this one muuuuch better.

Here's my idea id what Noir Looks like:

http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2813/10997691895_483010451e_o.png

[Noir.]

looks so much better than mine!

and you added Zai!

[Enigmatic Immortal]

I'm curious Lye what you think when you think of Jensen.

Also a shameless plug for you to help me cause I can't get that too work for shit. Haha

[Lye]

As requested, Jensen Ambrose. Let me know how I did.

http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2813/11015452696_3ab9671643_o.png

[Chelley]

With the two long bits at the sides... it kinda looks like mullet....

[Lye]

I read his description - Short brown hair with two longer shoulder length pieces at the side with red tips. I can always try again but it's hard without a reference. :/

[Chelley]

Oh I know. I read the description too. And it seems pretty accurate as far as the hair. Tis just the way the HeroGen does things that it looks kinda like a mullet.


Here... have a Poison

[Erikar]

Here's one I did for you, Lye! =D The description I used was taken from your character page.
Lye Ulroke (http://imgur.com/XJBbFve)

[Lye]

Heh, sweet! Looks pretty awesome! Thanks Erikar!

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

This is my latest little project. A character from a tabletop RP that me and Musashi are involved in.

Still a work in progress.

You wouldn't know to look at him, but he's actually a mage.

[black shadow]

3187 Black Shadow without color. didn't have the time for the colors.

[Ashla]

3187 Black Shadow without color. didn't have the time for the colors.

I remember that all his clothes are black though; so this paints a good image.

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the most likely now finally pretty much totally complete version. I have been tweaking it on and off for months, and finally, we have this:

http://i636.photobucket.com/albums/uu84/Anarchist147/Trustme_zpsc6d68e73.jpg

[Lye]

It's beautiful! All the tattoos, spikes, pointy teefs, and scars! Just lovely! He's cuddle-rific!

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

And him in his office.

[hoytti]

Here is General Roy

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Well, I can finally present this happy little duo. :P Enjoy!

http://i636.photobucket.com/albums/uu84/Anarchist147/TheTwins_zpsfb1929fa.jpg

[Lye]

Da fawq? Who is the red girl? Has she been written yet?

[Mordelain]

Cannot...unsee...:(

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Da fawq? Who is the red girl? Has she been written yet?

:P Not yet, cutter. But fret not - you'll meet her soon enough.

[Roht Mirage]

Hey, you know what would make an awesome description? Sand tattoos that portray the roll of dunes but also enhance natural musculature.

You know what is a bitch to create with stock tattoo shapes? Sand tattoos that... etc.

This is the best I can do. I'll try making her non-tournament pic some other day.

And a close-up of the face because all that time spent making single-pixel adjustments on the Roht mark must be immortalized.

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

lol I know what you mean.

But, if it helps, you should look through the Insignia lists, as well as Auras and Energy in the Item Right lists.

Also, not sure how familiar you are with the programme yet, but masking might be something that'd help with the tattoos. Helped me a lot - especially with Aur's tattoos. (For example, his right forearm).

[Roht Mirage]

I never thought to look in Item Right. Just tried to find simple shapes in Insignia.

And now that I look at the right arm, I can see what you mean by masking. I should have thought of that. Thanks muchly for the tips. =)

[Lye]

Aurie has become the resident professional in that area. Too bad he doesn't take commissions... or does he?

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Aurie is actually considering taking on commissions. Either just for fun, or maybe for a pittance in gold. But it'd probably be the ones I find easiest or most fun to turn my hand to. I shall definitely keep people posted. The one thing I can say is - I don't do backgrounds. lol Not much use at them.

[Lye]

I believe this deserves to be revived in light of some new members joining the site. To those individuals, please check the first post and have fun building your characters!

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Agreed!

I have found few things as addictive as this on the internet!

[Alyssa Snow]

Here is what I could pull off for Alyssa:

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Well, Heromaker is back from the dead for me again.

First up on the block: Aure's next familiar.

http://i636.photobucket.com/albums/uu84/Anarchist147/hm3-beta_zpsc84003ff.jpg

[Warpath]

His name is Cuddles.

[Karuka]

And he's adorable.

[Alyssa Snow]

It's like a face hugger slept with a zergling which then had an affair with whatever this guy (http://unrealitymag.bcmediagroup.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/amnesia-465x247.jpg) is from Amnesia and together they were stuck in an odd intimate position which somehow included headcrabs as an STD.

And that braingina... it... how... WHY AURE WHY!?

[Luned]

I found yet another character creator (http://v-room.net/g/daijin/jojoface1100.html)... and wasn't sure where to share it, so here works. Styled after Jojo's Bizarre Adventure! (I'm procrastinating, can you tell)

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Roht, you should let her read some of my threads and see how long the like lasts. :P

And Hys... I cannot read that name without hearing it screamed in my head by a shrill, angry German.

[Lye]

New people, check out post one.

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Agreed. I am still addicted to it.

[Morus]

Seeing Aure's creations for this is like trying to paint in a room where Andy Warhol and Michelangelo are making out - disheartening and distracting. But I gave it a go.

http://i.imgur.com/8EosQnF.png

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls!

This is, I imagine, not safe for work. Or young people.

But, I present to you the latest little flesh-darling cooked up by my sleep-deprived mind.

Well then.

Also you can use the spoiler tags if you want to hide something.

Surprise!

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

And another!

[BlackAndBlueEyes]

Since when did Aure start wearing a dress?

[Aurelianus Drak'shal]

He's not much of a man, by the light of day; but by night, he's one helluva lover...

[hoytti]

Yes I'm sure he is one HELLuva lover.

[Sulla]

Hear no evil, see no evil, spea-

No, wait. He has a mouth on his hand.
