mattisagamerParticipantThe birds eye view astounds me every time looking at it! Awesome work Vector!
mattisagamerParticipantThe question comes to mind, “Who do we get our inspiration from when we create HM creations?” If I were to answer that question, I would definitely say AMS is a huge influence on my HM creations and work. So in homage to AMS, I present a Revamped Captain Mathias Valentyne!
Captain Valentyne Revamped
This piece took me roughly 6 hours to complete. My longest project and I do believe it’s my best! There are parts of the character that I need to fix again, such as the torso piece and pelvic area. It had it’s flaws, but I think I did alright my first time around with this type of technique! This is my first time attempting the techniques used to highlight and shade like AMS, so I hope you all enjoy this piece! As always, criticism and feedback is always appreciated! Thanks!
Also just a side by side comparison to show progress!
mattisagamerParticipantI have spent the last two weeks working on a new project that I think you all might like! I’m a big Mass Effect and Star Wars fan, so this idea came from those franchises! Well, they were mostly inspired by them. I hope you all enjoy! The story is some what explained in the first Dossier!

-Unity Soldier
-Captain of ValianceCaptain Mathias “Maverick” Valentyne was born and raised in Washington DC in 2075. The son of a government diplomat and stock broker, he had political and economical standards of background throughout the majority of his childhood, making him an effective negotiator. During the Serenity Era of Earth, Valentyne enlisted in Unity at the age of 18 to be ready on reserves. Nearly two years later, the Infinity War began, marking humanity’s end. From the Infinity War, humans learned the technology of Time Manipulation to revert the Earth backwards in time at short increments to distance from the Xaidan Armada from Krajesh, an alien hybrid on a ruthless genocide of all races in the universe. The Earth manages to revert time fast enough to avoid the Xaidan Armada, but not fast enough. Valentyne served bravely, earning the Congressional Medal of Honor for his actions in the Siege of Mars, Battle of London and the Defending of DC in the ongoing Infinity War.
A master marksman and swordsman, Valentyne has trained under Jerry Jenson, an “Old Time” Veteran of the original USMC before it was combined with all other armed forces to establish Unity, humanity’s last effort to preserve peace and prevent chaos of the relationships between humans and aliens. With the formation of Unity, the Serenity Era began and lasted from 2047-2093. Humanity worked together to build relations with aliens that they have reached out to; with the advancement of space tech, humans were able to manipulate the environment in space to jump from one galaxy to the next. This form of manipulation would be enhanced with Time as a voyage that would take year would change to one minute, allowing for greater interactions with life forms bigger than humanity itself.
During the Infinity War, many weapon corporations broke out to provide weapons and technology to Unity’s soldiers. The most effective (and controversial) company is Vyper Intelligence and their development of Vyper Shields. These shields were designed for protection and offense, serving the user as a barrier or weapon. However, many ethical violations were broken in testing prototypes of the Vyper Shield; to be a user, a person’s neural cortex is tapped and changed around to allow the pulsating energy of the implant to access the processes of the brain. Many failures have lead to protests against Vyper Intelligence, but was entirely perfected with one young, but willing soldier: Edwin Royce, best friend to Valentyne. Both soldiers were apart of the few successes of Vyper Shields before it was released to Unity; both are well adept with controlling the tech, but experience episodes of psychological disconnection.
During the early theaters of the Infinity War, Valentyne was quickly promoted to Captain at the age of 24. By 28, he was commissioned to head Unity’s Lead Warship: Valiance. Valentyne was to travel and spread word for the need of galactic aid to defeat the Xaidan Armada, taking him to present day today.
First Lieutenant Edwin Royce

Height: 5’11”
Weight: 235 lbs

Hair: Dark Brown
Ethnicity: African American
DOB: 1/30/2076-Expert Marksman
-Master H2H Combatant
-Vyper Shield Champion
-Guitarist/Comic Relief
-Unity Soldier
-Second in Command of ValianceFirst Lieutenant Edwin “Savage” Royce is Valiance’s Second in Command and best friends with Valentyne. Born in 2076, he was raised by a entrepreneur and hair dresser. Joined Unity at the same.Time as Valentyne, but lied on his age report. The first successful “Human Vyper”, he has gained commercial notoriety amongst humanity. An example of the “super soldier”, many look to Royce as the future of all Unity Officers. Little does anyone know he will play a greater roll than soldier in the Infinity War.
As a hobby, Royce plays guitar and entertains the crew of Valiance with jokes and humor to keep morale high. Though highly popular and respected, he had yet to keep a stable, intimate relationship with a female companion. Valentyne uses this to mess with Royce to pump him before missions, typically saying “You’ll find a woman one day. Just try not to run her down”.

-Chef/TM Ward on ValianceTime Manipulator Rosslyn Odessa is one of Unity’s finest time manipulators and love interest of Valentyne. Born in 2077 to a White Collar Criminal and Money Launderer, her acceptance into Unity was processed longer than normal due to her family business. Though not associated with her parents, she is kept on constant watch to note any suspicious activity. A Time Manipulator, she is able to fragment herself through time and sneak past enemy defenses at the same time slow time down for a short period. She met Valentyne at the beginning of the Infinity War in the 44th Infantry Unit while stationed in London. Valentyne daringly rescued Odessa from a burning building along with 12 other soldiers, earning notoriety towards his Medal of Honor.
An amazing cook, she and Old Timer prepare food for the crew of Valiance everyday. Not a single stomach goes empty when she cooks, preparing large amounts for several days and even gives some away to the human colonies across the galaxies. A caring heart, Valentyne cares about her the most on Valiance.

Junior Engineer Mechanic Joseph Jester
Age: 16

DOB: 3/28/2089-Genius Engineer and Mechanic
-Unity EngineerJunior Engineer Mechanic Joseph Jester was offered a place at the Smithsonian College of Innovator, but turned it down to pursue a military career at a young age. At the age of 8, Jester pieced together an RC car from scratch that could fly, fire a 9mm Pistol and become invisible when directed. This would eventually become to be known as the Jesterbot after Unity took on the project to produce it for the military. At age 16, he was admitted as a Unity Engineer, assigned to the Valiance. Though he may be the youngest on board, he is definitely the youngest, intelligent mind Unity has to offer.
I have some Aliens I have also created that I will post tomorrow! As always, criticism and feedback is always appreciated! Thanks!
mattisagamerParticipantThanks for the kind comments Herr! She’s an all around artist, but never worked with digital art! Thanks again.
Also, here’s a revamped version of Astral if you’d like to take a look. I definitely did one too many highlights. xD As always, feedback and criticism is always appreciated! Thanks!
Astral Revamped
mattisagamerParticipantA motorcycle created from Shoulder Right/Standard! I was a bit lazy with the color scheme… But yeah!
mattisagamerParticipantSo I convinced my girlfriend to a do an HM creation and this is what turned out!
She has never attempted it before and when I saw it, I was, yes I’m going to use this word, flabbergasted. Granted, she is an artist… But she picked it up like it was easy as pie! In the picture, she created us as if we were superheroes. Except I’m not that buff haha. Maybe you could guys could give some feedback and I can tell her about it? Thanks!
mattisagamerParticipantWelp, the imagination train has been down for quite sometime. I actually went to a character idea generator. This is what I got back:
“This secretive ninja is tall and has a masculine build. He has no skin. His deep-set eyes are violet. He has teal hair worn in a style that resembles a flame. He uses a weird form of martial arts that emphasizes knocking one’s opponent out and using punches. His preferred weapons are axes. He is skilled in juggling and lockpicking.”
I actually like this generator thing. Yes, generator thing. It helps whenever I can’t think of something! When I thought about it, if he has “no skin” he could be a spirit or soul projection. I turned my character into a sort of ghost like ninja, but still has the physical characteristics of a human being. I drew some imagination from characters like Ryu Hayabusa and the ninja from Mark of the Ninja into the idea of my new character, Astral. Being an apparition, he can’t be stopped by physical attacks. Only other forms of combat can stop him, and with little to no information on how, he is virtually unstoppable. For now at least. I used a Tyrian purple for the eyes and a teal blue for the armor. I do like the Hex Code option. Definitely brings those colors that aren’t in the pre-sets to life! I think I might build form this character more to get back into the gist of machining. It’s been too long, so it isn’t my greatest, but I’m working! As always, feedback and criticism is always appreciated! Thanks!

Welp, it’s been awhile! Haven’t had much free time to work on HM Creations. But even when I do… I can’t think of anything. Every time I would go on to work on something, I’d just stop in the middle of it, hit clear and start over. I don’t know, maybe I don’t have the drive or confidence to finish anymore pieces. Any ideas I could work on? I could use some help. Thanks everybody.
You could always take a stab at Friday Night Fights! Go to the blog page to find the post on it and read up on the rules of the contest!
Thanks Kaldath! I’ll be sure to check those out.

mattisagamerParticipantShhh, Herr you won. xD
mattisagamerParticipantThanks Keric! I might just go back and do that! Time is a bit scarce to find (as I posted in the contest). I’ll do it as soon as I can! Thanks!
mattisagamerParticipantI’d like to apologize for my absence on this week’s contest in being almost a week late! Life has been catching up to me and I should have left a message or two prior to it. I hope I have not caused a ruckus or set back in the contests!
VOTING TIME!
So since I have no idea how to judge, I’ll make up my own judging system? I mean, if there’s anything wrong with it or if you guys would like me to use the other one I’d be more than happy too. But I’ll try to judge by my own system for now until further change. xP
Story: Chang: Surviving two invasions? That’s hardcore. Clarissa: A love story about me? How about that!
Edge: ClarissaBackground: I’d say Chang’s edges out Clarissa in this one. The color choices for the grass and sky go hand in hand. Clarissa’s background was nice as well, felt like a true work place for Clarissa.
Edge: ChangUsage of Items: Chang: 6/10. I like the usage of the mustache as eye brows and bats! But the tail seemed a bit typical for usage, but the arrow tattoos are spot on in using the items in a different way. Clarissa: 7/10. Seemed like she got a bit angry after I moved on a bit… The tail as a broken end of a mop definitely makes sense. The mustache use as spiders was quite fitting as well! the arrow however seemed a bit out of place. But still great usage of items in both pictures!
Edge: ClarissaEmotion: To judge from Chang’s POV, I can imagine the battles he’s seen and the people he has killed. A true warrior at his finest. Clarissa on the other hand of the spectrum decided to go with the love approach and make it all lovey dubby by trying to impress me. Sorry Clarissa, you’re not my type.
Edge: ClarissaOverall Picture: While Chang’s picture is simple and clean, Clarissa had a bit too much going on in the picture. While it symbolizes her attempts at trying to work her magic, Chang’s simple representation wins him this category.
Edge: ChangAnd now, the overall winner is… Clarissa! Congrats Herr to winning this week’s contest! But I still won’t be wooed by Clarissa.
Sorry for the hold up everybody!

Figured that be the route to go. xD It’s nice to have an awesome community that can give great feedback and advice. It’s a great way to express imagination and creations with other people with the same interests!
I just thought I’d leave this number here just to include in my portfolio of art. The Angels of Vindication. I entered it in one of the contests hosted on here and it isn’t my best, but I hope to integrate it into my story arc of the Elementals! Any feedback and criticism is always appreciated!
The Angels of Vindiciation: A Single Angel
Today was a slow day for me today. It’s not my best, but it’s something I manage to conjure up with my imagination. Give or take an hour or so. I would like to introduce the newest villain I’ve created, dubbed by the feared name: Dogma! In league with the Angels of Vindication, Dogma is an ex war-mechanic turned rogue. Using his knowledge of mechs and parts, he has pieced together his own suit of armor with an extending outer of protection, giving him a Quadruple Bladed advantage in battle. Known for his affiliation with the Order of the Fox (the Order that The Foxtress and Dynafox are apart of), he dons the Mask of Allegiance in great disgrace against the Order that took away everything he once held dear. As always, feedback and criticism is always appreciated. Thanks!
Dogma
mattisagamerParticipantI’ve never really done more than one hero to a creation, but I do like how this one turned out! I didn’t want to highlight nor shade it because it just gives it a cartoonish look I was going for. I present to you all, the duo of The Foxtress and Dynafox! The power couple of the Elementals, they are stronger together with their ways of fighting. I think I may focus more on The Foxtress and Dynafox when it comes to the story development because just from judging from my creation I could definitely build a story from it. Haven’t seen that many couple heroes here on HM, so I’d thought I’d take more of a different route. As always, feedback and criticism is always appreciated! Thanks!
The Foxtress and Dynafox
mattisagamerParticipant@Herr I was thinking about that actually! I was trying to figure out a way to position the knife in accordance as to how she’d actually would throw it, but it makes more sense to display it between the fingers for a display sort of like!
@Vector Thanks for the awesome comment dude!
