Robo-cop's costume

[Mr.Funsocks]

I've been wanting to make a PA guy, so I made a build and tried to come up with a concept for the costume. I can't really get an interesting one though. I wanted to make (literally) robo-cop, ie a robot in a policeman's uniform. I couldn't get too much traction though, so I tried to just sort of clone the way policemen are uniformed in the game (light blue T shirt, dark pants), and make it into a robot. That was pretty bad too. So I added a hat. And it's still butt-ugly. I made him though, and I'll post the costume, and see if any of you have any ideas whatsoever as to how to make him not a character I'm embarrassed to play... Costume file attached, in-game shot here:

That definately does look embarrasing. It's got potential tho.

He seems loaded with muscles, any particular reason? you making a PA/force or PA/might char?

Heya

I don't think the costume file works since it's .bmp
As soon as the servers are back up (rage...) I'll have a look at it tough.

Just realized the PTS works, so here's what I came up with. It's just been a few minutes, I didn't properly color all the details and there seems to be a clipping issue with the Shirt/Robo-Arms, but it still might give you something to work with.

Oooh, I like, I like. How on earth did you get the badge on the hat though? Or the thing on the shoulder?

I'll try it when I get home (which is looking like it's happening at about 1 AM tonight, wooo!). And as to why his torso is so big: I wanted to go for basically "I'm a gigantic robot that someone put a t-shirt on" so I was thinking of making his proportions just plain wrong for a human.

Hat: Police Hat (headwear)
Shirt: Polo Shirt, Officer Pattern (chestwear)

I'm not sure, but I think your hat is the military style hat. That, or your badge color is the same as the rest of the hat, so it's not visible.
