SmokeScreen's Custom's Baby!!!

Ok, thanks to Cavalier, NecroBlade, and Ketch for helping a brother figure out the pic posting deficiency I had. Now to start my custom thread!

I've always been a fan of mythology and had to do a Cerberus figure. He is the 3 headed guardian into the underworld. I have a sweet matching figure, I'll post some pics of him fighting later.



I thought the idea of a robotic assassin would be cool...


Here is my Stone Elemental...



These other customs are not on official Heroscape backgrounds using traditional armies...so the template is a bit different. I'll post using newer templates later, but I had to show everyone my devotion to customizing etc...Now, mind you I'm MUCH better when it comes to ACTUAL fig modification and painting, I'm a bit of a numbskull when it comes to using Photoshop.

This was back in the day when I was "creating" my own generals/factions for heroscape








Any comments, input on the points, special abilities, etc... would be muchly appreciated! Thanks guys!

Hey, One more question...How do I make it so those first pics aren't sooooo huge? I hate having to scroll sideways to read a message. I'm using Photobucket as my imaging source so I don't know if that helps any... I tried using the resize image tool, but it didn't seem to help...

That Cerberus card is pretty slick. And I like his powers.

Some of your earlier units are good too.

Your Robot Assassin wasn't showing up for me. Only a broken image
icon.

You could set all your images to the same physical width (say 600pixels or so) that way they would be smaller and fit on the page. And all conform to
a certain scale.

Thanks! Well, for some reason, even though I resized all of the photos in photobucket, the Cerberus pic doesn't want to resize like the others. Now the Robotic Assassin pic works! (Again, don't know why it didn't before) Thanks for the comments. Also, if anyone can remind me on the Cerberus Card how to (using photoshop) put his feet BEHIND the text layout of the card and the number stat bar...I'll redo him. Thanks! :P

try removing the whole army card exept for the little red part, (save the rest of the army card for later)
then paste the figure pic over the red part, than post the rest of his army card with the figure pic part transparent over the figure pic.
So basically stack

hope this made sense, i'm horrible at tutorials.

Your older stuff could use some serious wordage help. Do you have newer versions, or were you just sharing old customs?

Both actually...I have newer versions which I've cleaned up (grammer and the like, see the word Shileds instead of "Shields" on the stone elemental) but I'd still love some wordage help on how to make the abilites sound better/be less complicated. I'll match em up and see what sounds the bestest!

On Weretiger, maybe "Cat's Agility" should be divided into two abilities.

Like:

Feline Agility
Weretiger takes no damage when
falling from any height.

Pounce
Instead of Weretiger's normal move
he may use Pounce. When using Pounce
choose one clear tile up to 3 spaces
away and up to 25 spaces higher or lower
than Weretiger and place this unit in that
space. Weretiger may pass over water
without stopping, pass over figures without
becoming engaged, and pass over obstacles
such as ruins or trees. If Weretiger was
engaged prior to using Pounce he does not
take any leaving engagment attacks.


What do you think?

EDIT: Making him Medium 4 and using this figure maybe? Modding a Sword in.



My mind is the Pink Zippo that sits on top of a pack of Camel Wides.
