Absolutely! :D Actually instead of vines I think cloth or leather Vambraces would look better (and be more practical. Or as practical as you can get in Fantasy). Something like this:

Thanks in advance! You know now that I've got some time this weekend, maybe I should try making some 3d stuff as well, I've always wanted to learn. I've got Blender and DAZ 3D on my computer, I should start doing some tutorials and create some of my characters on here if I get good enough

These pictures bring back memories of Dance with rogues and more recently Gladiatrix.
If it takes me two weeks or more to respond to a RP without prior notice, send me a PM. It's more likely I've missed the last post, forgot or got distracted and need a little reminder rather than deciding to drop the game without warning.

*-* awesome *-* can't say anything else.

Since the character in the image is a bit far i can't see well the weapon, but since it seems like just any dagger i'll post an image of my weapon too XD so maybe everyone will understand better when i try to describe it.

The structure is like this:

How do those look? I could plot in something that juts out more like an arm guard for bows, or gauntlets if you'd prefer that?

Well now I feel bad. NWN Toolset isn't really 3D modeling so much as just taking models already in-game and finding combinations that work well. lol more power to yah!

She's currently using the wakizashi model. To my knowledge, kodachi and wakizashi are the same thing, it's just an interchangeable name referring to whether it's the main or side weapon?

Only sword smaller in NWN is the Tanto which I figured was too small, and the next size up is the ninja-to which seemed a bit too long unless her dad had a giant-ass polearm sword lol.\

No, no, it's ok XD from afar the weapon didn't seem like a wakizashi, that's why i posted the image ^^

Well, since i'm being picky, i'll be picky till the end, sorry xD the first one is perfect, while the second one should lack the guard XD if it's not possible then no problem, as i've said i'm just being picky xD soon i'll post *-*

edit: ç_ç i was about to write my post and the GM is up ç_ç i like that it's fast despite the number of players, so i should really haste myself from now onwards XD

Seriously though, nice job with Dana. She looks about as badass as she does in the appearance pic (imo), but with plenty of fellow badasses around her to balance out the image. :P

That's pretty nifty. Way to go above and beyond. Thank you for the approximate facsimile/placeholder of the player characters.

Oh don't worry about rushing, I honestly was originally going to wait until after my nap to get that post up since folks usually respond around mid afternoon/early evening. I'll be sure to respond to your own here in a minute or so.

Sorry MiscChaos, I realize your post is already up, but I'm going to wait until Zender responds before responding to it since they kinda interconnect. I'm sure a couple of our participators are coughing up dust right about now, but I loves them! :3




Glad to hear the two of you like them!

I'm currently editing in some pics. Not all posts will have pictures, sexy bits for sure won't have pictures, but I'll try to add them from time to time to keep things fresh. :)


EDIT: Got some simple pictures up.

Only one way to find out! ;)

Nah, they speak passion vine and butterfly respectively, but not common tongue.

*Coughs* Turns out 'I'll do it in the morning' doesn't work when everyone else is on an earlier TZ than I am. Well, lesson learnt. :lol:

Nice pictures! I'm not entirely sure about Alaric being bald in the NSFW version, but if I remember NVN correctly that's a side-effect of the hood? Not a big deal either way if you're not going to be using the nude pictures regularly.

Sorry Urhr. I meant to work on that earlier, but college money and stuff showed up today so I was a bit distracted! >.<

This should be interesting! :P

Honestly I'm just on super-late at night... 'Murica's beautiful Rockies here. I still got another week or so before Uni starts back up, so my current schedule looks like "stay up until some time between 2 and 5 in the morning, sleep in until 10-12."

Honestly I just put a head and hood on him because most of the half-orc heads (which I'm using for orcs) suck. I don't believe in orcs having giant sideburns, and all the heads have either giant sideburns, massive mustaches, or look like a war Orc than a "civilized" orc/have helmets covering 90% of the face. It seriously limits their head choices.

Do either of these two appeal more? I put 'em next to the randomly chosen one for comparison.

Hunters can't speak with animals, that's more in-line with the shaman and even they have limited empathetic capabilities. Hunters understand nature a bit better than your average adventurer, but they're not in-tune with it (elves are naturally in-tune with the feywild but also lack the ability to form higher communications with said realm beyond a few spells and the occasional spirit in stronger feywild areas). Part of the reason I explicitly called them Huntsmen (and later edited it to simply hunter) instead of Ranger was so folks wouldn't get the wrong idea.

From what she can tell the butterfly is waiting for something or another, and the vine's intentions are very clear. The plant seems mostly non-sentient (possibly semi-sentient since it did manage to knock her bow away, but unlikely to listen still if it is). It wouldn't understand struggling or shouting at it and such. She does have access to her knife of course.


Nobudi Wrote:Hmm, where have I seen her before? :lol:


I just followed the profile picture looks, hehe. Sometimes the best inspiration looks-wise come from the least expected sources!



I'll go ahead and work on a post for the folks I can at the moment (I owe Ruby a post)!

If you're doing requests for NWN version of characters, Elenwe's vest should be brown (should be possible to change in NWN engine) and she should have bracer on the right hand and heavy leather glove on her left in the same color :)

The average RP post for me consists of staring at the screen for half an hour, thinking of what to write, staring at the screen for a little longer, typing randomly, and then going back to make sure it's at least partially coherent. Honestly if I spent even half the time I do procrastinating on writing instead, you guys would have to read entire novels, so... No worries! :D (I'm a natural procrastinator, it's not that I don't like to write, it's a lot of fun, it's just one of those "getting into the mood" things as can be seen from my commenting here instead of typing!)

How does this look? I think #2 was what you were requesting, but the cloth colors on the bracer didn't mix well with the clothing so I ended up changing it to the metal bracer and setting it to a leathery color. Included the original for comparison, and a completely leather-colored one as a second comparison.

Yup, weird sleep patterns and somewhere in the US - that's what I was basing my guess on. ;) I'm a Kiwi - which puts me around four hours behind you. (Or rather, technically I'm 20 hours ahead of you...).

I do kind of like the first one. I hadn't originally pictured him with a mustache and beard, but now I'm torn over whether to retcon it and run with that one anyway...

I'm actually quite happy with the hood, though; that might not have been clear from my first post.

Mod 1 fits, maybe change sleeves to same color as pants? It's supposed to be only light vest, not full armor. Right bracer may be even smaller, if there's any such option which accepts "metal" color, I like darker green color on pants in that model too...maybe use color from mod 2 for leather parts (sorry for being a choosey bastard :D)
