Legends of Steel companions

I've just updated Companions-Humanoid with the following fine folk:

The first two gentlemen are from an illustration I did a few years ago of costumed crusaders in their fancy civvies. The remaining four were drawn for the "Legends of Steel" RPG created by Friend of HeroMachine Jeff "Evil DM" Mejia, who has graciously allowed them to be used here. You can order the game in its several varieties here.

Thanks to the Evil DM and I hope you enjoy the new additions to the bullpen.

Open Critique Day

It's Friday, so that must mean it's time for another OCD. You know the drill, you post a piece of heromachine work (either finished or W.I.P) that you want an opinion on and myself and others will give our opinions and advice.

So, show us what you’ve got.

Rules for posts, contests, and challenges that I am hosting: Original characters only, no copyrighted characters, no characters based on copyrighted characters, no characters based on RPG’s or other games. The characters must be your own design and not based on any character that might be copyrighted in any way. I have the right to delete any post that I believe crosses this line without warnings.

Whiz Bang Item Creation Poll #4 (SciFi Leg Armor)

[polldaddy poll="7721837"]

It's scifi leg armor time? We have War Machine, Guyver, and Mass Effect leg armor. I will be making the complete leg (so boot, knee, and thigh piece where applicable). Don't leave me without a leg to stand on. Vote and it shall be made!

Now's your chance to decide what artwork I will work on next. Whatever wins the vote will be completed the following week. This doesn't mean I won't work on other pieces. The winning piece will just be guaranteed my attention.

This poll will end on Thursday, January 23rd.

"Phantom Howler" by RobM

What should I do about backgrounds?

The current set of Backgrounds features two planets in the "Floor" set. The "Sky" set has a window, a wall, and a street corner. It makes no sense.

I'd like to rationalize these in some way and have them all make sense. But if I go mucking about and change the items, your saved characters will all of a sudden have something totally different in place when you load it, if you used one of the items (like the aforementioned floor planets).

Which would you rather, potentially having strange saved files, or having Background sets that make sense and were grouped sensibly?
