Rockhopper Lad himself, well, that's a bit more complicated. The Rockhopper Lad article on the LMB Wiki (and articles linked thereon) explain his origins.
Wow!
That page is amazing!
I'm going to have to try one of those myself.

What a nice way to get to know you, Rocky!
I love that kind of roleplay 'stuff'.
You're handsome in all of your images, too.

By all means, Candle, please contribute to the wiki. As for my pics on that page, any handsomeness there is thanks to Sketch Lad and Joeboy. laugh

Ex, these are really great! I'm looking forward to this next series.

When Dean originally drew Lardy from my description, I specified that the "L" should look a bit chubby! smile

I have a couple ideas for yours, Dev, but I'm not entirely satisfied with either... I need to give yours a bit of a think.


So, this round we have a few of the more successful proprietors of Legion World, respectively the owners of Cafe Cramer, The Super Law Firm... of Space, and, of course, SHAKES Bar - Fat Cramer, Quislet Esq., and Semi Transparent Fellow:

Next up: an Interlac Interlude... as we have a guy with something to say, and two others for whom a single letter says it all.

Ex, you're damn brillaint, you know that? I swear, you're like Paul McCartney in how you take what at first feels like little ideas and turn them into something hugely magical.

Love mine, which is perfect (and matches my graemlin). Love everyone else as well, especially this latest batch.

Paul McCartney? Thanks, Cobie, but trust me, with this nose I'll never get beyond Ringo. wink


Ok, so this next batch is a bit simple as it's the "Interlac" section, but I think conceptually they fit well. So up next is... well... me to start, followed by Rickshaw and Varalent:

I couldn't imagine Rick's being anything but and, as I said above, "Vee" and "Ex" are about as clear a connection as they come. For mine I also like how the sort of "hourglass" shape calls to mind all the time-traveling my character has done over the past couple years.

To supplement this "breather" round, I also gathered up all the ones I've done so far to see how they lay out together:

Pretty spiffy, though the gold sheen effect doesn't really carry through in the smaller size. I'll have to redo that when the whole group is done.

For tomorrow's batch: It's Ladies' Night!

It's on the schedule, sb. Trust me, when I get a taste for doing something I like, I get obsessive about doing it fully.

Wait... how many Legion Worlders are there? Over 1500 you say? OK, well maybe not fully but I'll try to do at least the top 100, plus a few other lower ranked posters who are nevertheless prominent.

Next up, three lovely ladies - Arachne, Fanfic Lady, and Tempest:

I'm actually very happy with the Tempest one, because it's so simple and yet works on multiple levels. It is a Celtic symbol that I think evokes not only her current name (with the form of the wave) but also her previous backstory with the Witches of Avalon (a trio of women).


Up next: No fewer than five entries. In honor of that number, let's say that name of each will contain a "V". (Even stranger, now that I look at the list, each one has a "V" in the same place in the name. Hint, hint. wink )

You can always request that it be made into an avatar. The request thread is in the Science Police forum

Absolutely, SK, I was already planning on doing so. It might take a little while, because I'm planning on doing about 100 or so of these, but you're on the docket. smile

Just a note for those who have been checking these out. The more I looked at the "cleome" one I did, the more I just really didn't like it.

It was too involved (it was actually nine different layers in Photoshop), and too much detail gets lost in this format. It's better to keep them simple, so I'm scrapping that one (the post is edited) and I'll give it another try later. Sorry, cleome, if you didn't see it, but trust me, it wasn't very good.

OK, next up... five with a "V". We have: Dev Em, Invisible Brainiac, Bevis (formerly Lucien Lad), Novelty, and Poverty Lad:

Bevis and Pov's are their own character's chest logos that I believe each of them created themselves.

Invisible Brainiac is obviously just a combo of the existing logos for Invisible Kid II and Brainiac 5.

Novelty, for those who don't know, is a huge toy collector and particularly likes "The Masters of the Universe" figures, so if he had a power, the obvious one to me would of course be "The Power of Grayskull", the logo for which I chose here.

For Dev I went through a ton of different combinations of elements to capture his half Durlan/half Daxamite character - antennae, spit curls, Tudor collars, cape disks - before I finally just boiled it down to the design here. So simple, but I think really effective. As a bonus, I noticed after I sized it that the buzz-cut lines on the left side pull the eye to the right side, where the absence of them suggests the letter "D".


Up next: Which three letter Legion Worlder beginning with S has a connection to ancient Egypt? Well... two actually.
