Maybe something can happen where we're not getting a lot of business so we try to learn their secrets to all the work they get and we come to the conclusion its the suits and a have a short part about it.

Personally I am against matching suits. What are we the Fantastic Four?

Re: The /co/ntractors
Guys, I always had an inkling in the back of my head that there was something fundamentally wrong with this project, and I think I finally figured it out.
It's the fact that it came from a "what do your look like" thread and not a "create your favorite super-hero" thread.
It means about 80% of all the characters are self-inserts in some way.
And nothing good as ever come out from having self-inserts in a webcomic before, let alone a main cast composed of dozens of self-inserts. Just look at LICD and CTRL+ALT+DEL.
Plus, having a forum and all that means we have names. We're like tripfags. And, while there can be one or two decent tripfags once in a blue moon, I really doubt that having 65 of them talking to each-other all day is a good idea. It's the best recipe to a HSG-/vp/ level tripfag circlejerk.
And we DO NOT want to end up like /vp/
Maybe we can have a logo on a pin or a team card, but yeah I disagree with the matching uniforms too. We're like free-lance heroes looking for money, not a government agency or a mutant school

I wasn't down with the coordinated outfits from the beginning. I'm iffy on the insignia but I think it could be fine! Whatever works!

I'm up for a pin with a logo.
Maybe matching hats?

Re: The /co/ntractors
alright, well, we are a mercenary/for hire sort of group. assuming we do advertise our services, we would need a logo of sorts. some sort of symbol.
we could have this symbol incorporated somewhere on our individual costumes, ranging from any size of course.
just to recognize that we are part of the same group.
which could also help in "advertising our services"

Re: The /co/ntractors
There should be an awesome arc where one of us gets hired and then shit goes down and they're betrayed or something and then the rest of the team bursts in to save them and the bad guy is all;
"What?! But I only hired one of you!"
Zoom to someone's face
"When you hire one of us..."
Zoom in ever closer bro
"you hire all of us."
THEN WE PROCEED TO KICK CRIMINAL ASS.

Sorry I've been lazy in my work here.
Yesterday I spent cleaning a mystery virus from my PC and work went longer than expected today.
Art and some other stuff soon.

Re: The /co/ntractors
I am totally down with almost everything I have read so far here.
I totally want a classy as fuck suit-with-pin costume thing going on, but that does not go with the whole "not particularly rich" superhero thing we have going.Also, Neon, I would totally wear you. I AM A STRAIGHT MALE

Re: The /co/ntractors
im sort of thinking some kind of rambo variation for the wrath.
not the exact outfit of course, but sort of the style i guess?
definitely the head band though.
it fits with my body type/description/guns and what not.

Re: The /co/ntractors
I can't think of a costume that doesn't look/sound totally cheesy that fits with a "portals" theme. Can someone help me out with that?

you could just go with sort of a futuristic theme. like a cyberpunk-esque type of deal or what not.
but i don't really know.

I think they're more like... magic portals, since I was thinking Wakfu when I thought portals.

Re: The /co/ntractors
I'd rather have Bluster stick with what he's wearing, dress-shirt, overcoat and slacks. though i don't mind changing to colours to suit a theme.
also, gideon, what colours are your portals, you could probably use that as a starting point.

I totally have not thought about that... They should be subtle. Maybe a sorta light, translucent grey-green, or orange-red...?
