Kaldath's Character Challenge #3

It's time once again for me to ask you to take one of my creations and reinterrupt it! This week for your creative pleasure I want you to redesign my character ...........................

Britannica

Britannica HM3

 

A little about the character:

Britannica is a master of all things mystical, and gets all his powers from magic. As a desendent of Merlin Britannica is the most power human mage of my Super Hero world all on his own, however his cloak ( the clasp really so feel free to redesign as something else ) and belt triple his own natural magical ability and together grant to him the power of flight.

 

The Rules:

You have no limits on the number of entries for this challenge however you most maintain all the rules for posting characters here most importainly is keeping it within the bounds of a PG-13 rating at worst. All entries most be created using only some version of Heromachine. No photoshopping except for basic cropping, and or a simple basic board around the image as a whole. All entries must be submitted no later then 12 Noon Eastern time on Monday December 23rd. 

Good luck everyone!

More landscaping

I just added the following items to the Background-Landscapes set:

landscape3
landscape2

A couple of those are lakes/ponds/bodies of water. As you can see there are a few requested items (the mesa, the cave front, the big cactus) as well as a number of trees, some grass, etc. Hopefully this will help bring your settings to life.

HM3: Wanna Cook?

HeisenbergSet

Welcome new art contributor, Madjack! He was kind enough to provide this iconic "Heisenberg" hat and glasses.  Look forward to seeing more of his quality work (more on the way). I'd say its 99.1% pure awesome.

The hat can be found in Headgear/Modern.
The sunglasses can be found Headgear/Glasses

HM3: One day, lad, all this will be yours

No, not the curtains! These vast tracts of land, available now in Background-Landscapes (a completely new set). The idea behind these is that you can use the "multiples" setting to piece together your own scenes. So for instance, there are some standalone trees, some middle ground plains, plenty of far-off mountains, some piles of rocks, etc. This is another experiment along the lines of the Rooms and Furniture sets, so let me know how they're working.

If you have other landscape elements you want to see included, let me know.

HM3: Quit badgering me!

Because it's a badger, get it?! I slay myself. This requested item from Simon is now available in Companion-Standard.

HM3: Playing Head Games

NewItems120813

Whiz Bang rolls out this week's new items!

The Futuristic Soldier Helmet was the winner of this week's poll. It resides in Headgear/Military as three objects (full piece, helmet, and mask). This piece was originally suggested for the item poll by Shocking458. I hope you have fun playing soldier!

Robot Skull was a item poll piece suggested by CKnap. It resides in Head/MaleStandard. Keep an eye on this one. I have a feeling it has malevolent plans for the human race.

Generic Flared Helmet and Star Insignia were item poll pieces suggested by Lightningsword. The Generic Flared Helmet can be found in Headgear/Standard, while the Star Insignia can be found in Insignia/Standard. Call me crazy but I bet these two items would look good together.

The guitar is an item created in the distant path for a young rockin adventurer called Harlequin. The reasons behind its creation are lost in the mists of time. It can be found in ItemRight/Music.
