Aww... your Indian gal is cute! I'm especially digging the short skirt. You know I always go for authenticity! Well... mostly ;-) I used the chiton (finally), slimmed it down significantly with the slit skirt, and then hid the break with a belt. And I will defend those boots -check out the bead...
I've done only a handful of CAS character recreations (Wander from Shadow of the Colossus, Ziggy Stardust, Elvis, etc.) and, as such, I don't consider Corto to be one of my "official" releases. He could probably use some help -but he's a tough build... The white bellbottoms are spot-on, but his...
Thanks for the encouragement! That girl originally started out in a sort-of Dunesque Stilsuit:
But the makeup, which I stumbled across -and liked- started to take it in a more Asian direction. The palate been so muted that I thought it really needed a shot in the arm in the form of an almost...
Ah... Corto Maltese - I wish he was better known here in the States. I only discovered him myself on a trip to France (in the pre-Internet era).
I couldn't agree more with you about the face/makeup being the soul of character design and it's something that I think a lot of people overlook. The...
There certainly is a lot to take in, but I watched your video in its entirety. Overall, its easy to see the hand of someone who has devoted much time and effort to both experimentation and crafting, i.e., building a character layer by layer and pattern by pattern. I feel this method yields...
Thanks for the comments guys; I still check out the Create-A-Soul threads here often to see what everyone is up to. And just when I thought my best creations were well behind me, I got inspired and pulled off something that I think ranks with some of my best work:
Key here is that I found...
At this late stage of the game (no pun intended) it's nice when you can still pull off a design that you would consider a personal top-5 best. Historical uniforms are some of the most difficult to pull off convincingly, but this game was aching for what are pretty much the ultimate bad-asses of...
The Great War & Modern Memory
With both the 100th anniversary of WWI and Battlefield 1 dropping later this October, there's been some increased interest in the Great War and I love designing for it. Two new ones join our Tommy and Prussian in this series: a German trooper and an American.
I've tried to move on, but I guess I just enjoy playing dress-up too much. Here we have a couple new gender-benders; that is, I used the female model to make male characters, both for the challenge and to be able to use certain exclusively female clothing options:
Especially when you...
So, after The Witcher: Wild Hunt, it seems we have some downtime before Dark Souls 3. Of course I'd find my way back to SCV! Thus, I present a new character in my "Busty Girls From Outer Space" series:
I'd long grown tired of the standard equipment, so she is mostly the result of using...
I've tried to move on to the PS4... really I have... but I miss my SCV characters! So here we have a few new ones including bizarre twin sisters, a wife for the big, ugly guy from the previous post, and the return of an old friend...
Take care, guys!
Thanks for all the feedback guys! I'm back with a few new characters to inspire you.
First up, a Native American character. These have to handled with some care as they can easily fall victim to cliche:
I've done a couple of WWI characters above, so next we have a WWII character:
As I...
This was a study in helmet-building, which is my favorite kind of work in Creation. Starting with a bald head, it consists of two zipper stickers (front and back), two circle stickers (left and right sides), an elongated sphere (covering the ears), the Hero crest (reversed), the samurai helmet...
Thanks guys! I'll update this thread from time to time if I feel I do anything particularly creative.
Patchouli
Usually only used to fighting “The Establishment”, Patty’s entire experience in SCV is merely an extremely intense hallucination, the result of experimenting with peyote one evening...
brucege: Thanks very much for taking the time to look at my designs and to comment on them. I'm always curious how others might interpret my work or have some suggestions about other (or better) ways of doing things. And I can see that you also appreciate the little details. When it comes to...
Thank you for an honest critique -some of which I took to heart in slight character refinements. I strive generally for authenticity and "rational" details in my designs, but I'm not above a little fan service now and then... it is a video game, after all. If you tend toward a steampunk...
Here are several SCV characters that I have created, along with their backstories, that I would like to share. Comments and critiques are welcome. I hope you enjoy.
Ironsides
Although Ironsides has been in the navy since he was 13, due to various disciplinary actions as well as his...
