    A DC Animated-style HeroMachine

    (I tried searching and didn't see anything that matched. Apologies if this has already been scooped.)

    Most of us are familiar with HeroMachine (if you're not, give it a look, it's pretty nifty). In the last day or so, I learned about a similar online toy that generates art in the style of the DC animated shows.

    EDIT: I've been asked to put in the new link that actually works. Here you go: http://fabricadeherois.blogspot.com/

    Here's a sample, one of my long-running PCs, Troubadour:



    Enjoy!

    (EDIT: I did put the final product through Photoshop, but only to insert his proper chest insignia. Everything else is from the program.)

    Cool! I love the animated style. Can't wait to see the faces of my players when I present them their next opponents in that cartoon style.

    I never cared for Hero Machine. These look pretty cool. I wish that the Babel fish site translated it though.

    It takes a bit to get the hang of because of the language diff, but very impressive

    Not only does this look like a pretty nifty art generator, but looking at some of the character names in the galleries can give ideas for Champions names.

    Magnun, Demolidor...good names.

    Although I have to wonder about the Portuguese name for Plastic Man. I speak zero Portuguese, but I can recognize a cognate when I see one. Wouldn't "Homem Borracha" mean something like "Drunk Man"?

    Very nice, but the link didn't work for me. I found it here: http://www.iniciative.com.br/edu/heroomatic/index.html

    I take it that it's a work in progress, since two of the five models they have on the front page don't show up as selections.

    "Will that happen?"
    "No."

    Which one is the superhero generator? All I could find was the fantasy character machine.

    I do have to wonder how "Please sue the crap out of me." translates into Portuguese. I'm just remembering the flap over dupes of Marvel characters in City of Heroes.

    It does look extremely impressive. It also looks like Copyright infrigement threatening letter incoming. It's too bad.
