So I haven’t really escaped this superheroes and spandex rut I’ve been in as of late but I’ve still been creating character and I have a couple (4) I figured I may as well post here.

I haven’t made something new in more than 3 weeks!That might be the longest since Hurricane Sandy when the power went down for 2 weeks.But I have the time and the power,just not the creativity.So I feel the same ,it happens to all of us!It will come to you,and taking a step back is the smartest thing to do!you’ll see!Cheers!!

I actually left the Heromachine community for well over a year due to increased workload, exploding computers and increasing the size of my family by one (not to mention the increased troll activity at the time). It was during that time that I initially came up with the majority of characters that you see here. It wasn’t until I started using HM again that I was finally able to give them all faces (and spangly outfits). Hopefully it won’t take me over a year to start creating again this time.

No doubt I’ll come up with a ton of character concepts again now that I’ve stepped away from Heromachine.

Okay, I’ll just say it.

I kind of feel like I’m in a Heromachine rut. I only ever seem to create spandex clad supers these days and I used to do so much more.

I think I’m gonna take a break from HM for a while until I can think of something genuinely original to create. I’ll probably still be around because I love seeing the great work the rest of you create but you probably won’t see anything new from me unless I’m struck by inspiration.

Engaging lurking mode.

Dark! Haven’t seen you around here in forever. I’m glad you’re back mate

Also, The Raven looks great.

[Anarchangel]

That is wonderful! I kind of don’t want to enter the contest now because there’s no way any of my characters could beat that.

The original, golden age, American Dream. Strong, beautiful and unfortunately slightly racist back in the day. She grew as a person though and lost that horrible trait. Sadly no longer with us, American Dream died a few years ago while defending her family from an invading alien threat. (It’s a whole thing. Don’t ask)

……………………..

American Dream is one of the few characters I was able to recover after the original forums were deleted and my computer exploded (I’m sure the two events are unrelated…) because I had already uploaded her to the Guild. Airborne being another.

p.s. I’m also including the modern American Dream here, just for the hell of it.

Looks great, if not hugely witch-like. I’d say she looks more like a solar powered super heroine.

Yeah I’m actually pretty disappointed with Aurora. I was trying to stay away from the stereotypical “witch” look and I somehow ended up on this bizarre get-up. She looks decent enough as a character I suppose but the design doesn’t really fit the character she’s supposed to be.

I’m gonna try again but maybe not right away.

Aurora, powerful Greek witch with a bizarre helmet thing. (?)

I wish I could pump em’ out that quick and maintain that much quality at the same time!Good stuff man!

Quality? I’m pretty sure that was a typo but thanks

Experimenting with hair/fur. This is Grizzly.

Another friend and team mate of the above is the mysterious Viper. Looking slightly more dishevelled here than I had intended.

[Anarchangel]

I’ll sign for it! I love it

[Anarchangel]

Oh man, I don’t check your thread nearly enough. There are some truly outstanding characters in here. Great work.

Loadstone’s best bud is the cocky loud mouth hero, Icarus. People tend to dislike Icarus. But that’s okay, he loves himself. And to him, that’s more than enough.

Strangely, he’s also friends with Prowler, despite both of them finding the other incredibly annoying.

p.s. Thanks to LiveWyre for the pose.

[Anarchangel]

Ouch… Cool but ouch.
