Category Archives: New Item Releases

Ten new hand poses are now available in the Hand Right and Hand Left Standard sets! These are more of a “Casual” kind of set, so less “Dr. Strange casting spells” and more “Let’s just hang out” kind of a vibe. Here’s what they look like:

Hands are a lot more difficult to create than other items because I have to make an itemMask that gives the effect of another item being held in it. That’s always a mind-bender for me.

Also in this update, the “Color All Skin” button now works the way it should have from the start. It applies both Color 1 and Color 2 to all skin slots at once, and feet are now included in the skin group. No more having to manually color-match your character’s toes unless you’re into that which, hey, no judgment here, you do you.

I probably had it not that way before since so many of the “Foot” items are actually Footwear instead of body parts. If you don’t like “Color all skin” affecting them, let me know and I can change it back.

I’ve added some new items to HeroMachine 3 Phoenix Edition for your character creation enjoyment, starting with some JAFOs (Just Another F…reaking Observer):

And because nothing makes friends stick close more than being Becky (or Bill) With the Good Hair, you can now use these in Hair -> Male Standard:

Enjoy! I know the lineart on the male companions isn’t quite as slick as usual but I find myself wanting to introduce a little more variation in what’s available. Hope you like them!

I’ve just released some new additions to HeroMachine 3 Phoenix Edition that I hope will help people make some interesting and cool characters you couldn’t before. The big star is a set of new Dreadlock styles that I am super excited about, I think they came out really well. And while I was at it I added some more lips and noses for the female template that give additional flexibility. I can’t wait to see what you all are able to create with them!

This set of new Hair -> Female -> Standard items went a lot faster than I expected so it’s a surprise additional Monday release.

Next up I have some dreadlock hairstyles (female and male) to do, then a handful of additional non-dreadlock male hairstyles. Then I’ll have to decide if I’m sick of doing hair, and if not I’ll add some new female “long hair” items.

I hope you like these and find them useful!

I took a quick break to knock out a new set, check Companion -> Automata for this crew of mechanical assistants. I’m honestly not sure how many people use the more fully-formed character Companions but I felt like adding them, so I did. I hope someone finds them useful!

To go with the new Eyes, I’ve released new Eyebrows -> Female -> Standard items as well. Enjoy!

We’re closing out a busy HeroMachine 3 Phoenix Edition weekend with 33 new additions to the “Eyes – Female” set. Enjoy! Next up, eyebrows, then probably Hairstyles per the results of the recent poll.

To kickstart your weekend, I’ve released a new set of Head items, housed in Head -> Automata. Think robots, androids, mechs, etc. I experimented a bit with these, adding more highlights and shadows and even positioning some heads in three quarter view, etc. I hope you like them!

Not the most exciting release, but new items nonetheless! Now available in Mouth -> Female after the originals. Enjoy!
