Well, not as good as the last one, this is supposed to be Watson after his return from Afghinistan during his time in the army.



Based on this pic



The descriptions of Watson I got for this described him as thin and nut brown when he first returned to England.

No, I just use the online version. They've now got it up to version 2.5. Poses are still prettymuch the same, but their mixing them up a bit now when it comes to the hands. Like you can choose a pose with amputated hands (real good for the new weapon expansions cause they have hands holding various objects that look strange placed over the exsisting hands), poses with fingers open on both hands, ect. Plus the 2.1 update included some Alien heads (Wookiee, Mon Cal, Slustan, etc.) which are still there.

I know someone said the thing they don't like about using the HeroMachine is that the pose is the same static pose. Well, if anyone's interested HeroMachine is working on version three, which is currently in the alpha phase but is open for folks to play around with. While so far all figures have to be face forward you can alter the pose. While you do start out wit a basic pose, you can rotate any element in the character so as to change their pose. In addition you can change the size of any or all of the elements. New elements are being added often, increasing the library of items to choose from. And some of the object items (blades and pistols) can be customized so you can create a new object.


Jedi Master character I made on HeroMachine 2

Same character with a HeroMachine 3 makeover. The only editing I did was the insignia

No, no editing here. That double-bladed lightsaber is a weapon feature of Hero Machine 3, though you have to add the blades on your own.

A soldier character I did

Another Jedi Master, supposed to be as close I could get to a Bothan. Was trying for a feline features Bothan appearance.

A hodgepodge droid character supposed to be made from bits and pieces. More a shocase of the different items. Note the golden hand is actually made using a triger hand and a couple insignia (one used four times). Also note the head, while the same helmet as the soldiet above was used for the mouth piece, the cyborg face plate was used for both halves of the face and flipped so one side actually covers the other. That's why there's no eyebrow over the right eye (which if you look at the dot on the right side of the chin and just above and to the side of the of the right eye you'll see would have been a burgundy color)

A felinoid character I did carrying a lightfoil. The fur actually uses the patterns feature for the items. As for the lightfoil itself it's the standard lightsaber handle shrunk down with the guard from a katana and a belt tassel add.

Yet another Jedi character. Pose is a bit different with both hands in a bit more of an overhead chop appearance

Ok, this is a bit different from the above, supposed to be a USAAF bomber pilot. You do have the chance to create multiple characters at once with the latest HeroMachine which is what I did here. There's very little in the way of female items (in fact there's only two items; a torso with arms, legs, and feet; or just a torso) so you have to find ways to get the masculine items to work with what little there is for female items (hopefully in the future there will be more female items cause it's a real ********* to get things just right and have it still look feminine). I know some bomber pilots had art on there jackets as well as their bombers, though it was usually on the back of their jackets. But I put the scantily clad girl on the front of his jacket so she could be seen.

Wow. Heromachine is really coming along. I was always frustrated that I could never get my Jedi looking the way I wanted them... but this looks like they're really pushing things forward.

Yeah, it does seem to be the best version yet. They've promised that eventually everything on HeroMachine 2.5 will be incoporated into the new version along with plenty of stuff not there already. Being able to pose your character is nice since it gives more room to play around. Wouldn't mind seeing some side pose abilities added, which would really give a wider selection of poses. But still it's better than it was and keeps getting even better with each new item set added.
