Hammerknight came up with a great idea, to put together a poster featuring super self-portraits of HeroMachine users for the holidays! Here's his invitation (click for a larger size):
If you're having trouble viewing that, it says:
The HeroMachine "Creator's Club". If you would like to join the "Creator's Club", all you have to do is make a character that best represents you. An artistic rendition of how you perceive yourself. After you are done with your character, e-mail it to m. Please include the name you want to go by. Also include any ideas that you have for the club. My e-mail address is "thehammerknight@yahoo.com". Please send your characters by the 18th of December, so that I can try and have a club poster done before Christmas. Many Thanks, Hammerknight.
It sounds like a neat idea! Thanks for thinking of it HK.

I am happy to announce the release of the Female Standard set of items for the "Hair" slot in HeroMachine 3! With 79 items, 2/3 of which are brand new and the rest properly sized and positioned conversions from the Male Standard set (pony tails, bangs, that sort of thing), this is one of the larger sets to date. Hopefully you'll be able to find just the right combination to make your character come to life.
Many thanks to the folks who posted requests and suggestions in the last thread, they were very helpful. I wasn't able to use them all, but you should recognize quite a few from that list. Here are a couple of previews:

Congratulations to the winners of Friday Night Fights Round 2, who have each won either their own portrait or any item of their choice to be included in the final HeroMachine 3 version! The four Semi-Finalists will now square off in head-to-head matchups to compete for your votes. The two winners from this round go on to the Finals, with the runner-up receiving a custom black and white character illustration and the winner their own custom color illustration.
Here's how our bracket stands at the moment:
Without further ado, I present your two Semi-Final Matches (click on an image to see the full-sized version)!

I lied last week and said Hammerknight's recipes included resizing information for the female template's feet. Oops. Luckily he has made me an un-liar, with this week's installment! Many thanks to him as always for generously sharing his time and skill with the rest of us slackers. As usual, click on either image to enlarge for legibility.
Thanks again, Hammerknight!

It looks like "Female Hair" won out for the next set of items for me to work on, so if you have specific requests for that, please leave them in the comments to this post. Any links to actual images of what you want will be the most helpful, but anything goes.

Don't forget to vote in the current Friday Night Fights round! The "West Coast Avengers" bracket is super-tight at the top, with Flame Knight leading Galactic Guardian by just TWELVE votes. The other matches are close, and could still be decided by a late surge as well.
You can vote every day, and by all means encourage your family, friends, and pets to make their voices heard as well!
