Hi Maplers!
It's another Look of the Month contest!
We will be looking for the best outfits, costumes, and flair from each of your in-game characters!
Here's what we are looking for in specific:
A picture of your character dressed in your favorite MapleStory outfit. This can be your training gear, outfits from events, clothes from the Cash Shop, anything! We prefer if you take a picture of your character for this month. After all, this is the Look of the Month contest.
Creativity based around the time of the year is something we consider as well. In months that have the possibility of themes (like October with Halloween and December with Christmas, for example) we may pick two winners if we see multiple entries in both categories.
Participants should write a short description of what your character is wearing and what sort of look you're going for.
Make sure to include your IGN and World
This is just the basic template of what you should have in your entry:

What look you're going for (theme): I'm going for a Spring / Easter Theme on my character. If you put the two together it creates a beautiful image of Spring time and Easter.
A little Spring poem that I created :
Flowers oh Flowers come out and play
April is here and then its May
Bright blue skies on warm sunny days
We can finally say Spring is here to stay Hooray!
Happy Easter Maplers

Short description of what your character is wearing: Absolab Bandit Cap, Secret Shade Suit, Absolab Knight Cape, Black Markintz, Blade (AoT Crossover Event), Head Bandage
What look you're going for (theme): Witch Hunter! Or Steampunk/Gothic hunter. I was also inspired by the CWKPQ Boss Rellik! As soon as I saw the Absolab Thief hat, I knew I had to make an outfit that centered around it. Definitely one of my favorite hats in game right now. The Lv. 90 Pirate boots were just high enough to cover the rest of my legs exposed from the short pants on the Secret Shade Suit.

(like the oceans that become free after the ice melts aka spring time ;D)

This is a spring/easter theme. I’m wearing bright spring colours (yellow, green, pink) with a bunny weapon and a chick cape. Also I love all kind of bunny stuff so my hair is shape of bunny ears. Lastly, my sparkling eyes represent the joy of the spring.

Description: My character is wearing:
I was aiming for a Gothic take on a Fallen Angel when designing my Battle Mage, due to how the class's skills, colour scheme and overall appearance give off an aura of darkness and death; Condemnation, Dark Genesis, and Aura Scythe are the perfect examples to showcase in relation to this idea. Due to this, I settled on a design that would feature a lot of black, since black is often seen as the colour of such themes. I personally feel that the slight addition of yellow, white and blue complements the large amount of black present in the look rather beautifully, and add a splash of colour to what would otherwise be an achromatic design. These considerations have all been taken into account to create, what I feel is, a minimalistic look that keeps with the desired appearance and is quite pleasing to the eye.

Short description of what your character is wearing:

- Bottom: Trixter Dunwitch Pants
- Shoes: Silver War Boots
- Gloves: Ecletic Hermosa
- Weapon: Tempest Katana
- Face: Treasure Hunter Jack's Scar

I am a Knight of Cygnus. With my sword, I draw upon the sun and the moon and use their powers to destroy evil.
My character looked very uncoordinated before I settled on this look. My only goal was to find items that matched the Warrior CRA armor and make a coherent outfit, so I came up with this. I unintentionally turned my character into an ordinary-looking Cygnus Knight in the process, but when I realized Hayato's skills look very similar to those of Dawn Warriors, I grew to embrace this Cygnus Knight identity and made it part of my character. I am now a Dawn Warrior.
IGN: Cielli
World: Luna
My Character is wearing:
- Lucid's Silk Hat
- Lucid Dream
- Dancing Fireflies
- Transparent Weapon, Face & Eye Accessories, Shoes
- Butterfly Label Ring
- Lucid Butterfly Ring
Aesthetics:
- Purple Lucid Hair
- Red Lucid Face
Extras:
- Dreaming Lucid Familiar
- Lucid Soul Summon
What look you're going for (theme): Not really much of an original theme nor is it related to the current season, but as a Lucid fanatic since her release, this look with the summons is a tribute to the brilliant character that Lucid is. The Dancing Fireflies cape adds a touch of sparkle that matches well with the dreamy aura of the Lucid Butterfly Ring. I guess I would name this theme Lucidception.
This is great LOL
