i hope this is in the right spot but i wanted to start a thread that involves trying different skins with different meshes to come up with something new.not to take away from anyones creations or ideas.example:i wanted a different capt.boomerang so i put firestorms cap.boomerang skin on grens boomerang mesh.it turned out perfect for what i was looking for.or maybe putting a kf on a mesh that comes out totally different.another example:putting c6's doc doom on rens hourman3 mesh.simple ideas.anyone with a simple idea they stumbled across could share an idea.like i said before....not trying to take away from anyones creations.
ok,ive finally come up with a good URSA MAJOR recipe.take inks caliban mesh,give it tj's gorilla kfs, then throw in valandars crinos_garou skin.
Have you tried C6's Punisher Classic skin? The readme states that it was done for a TM basic holster (hexed mesh). Since i had always had some problems using TM meshes, i tried using this skin in another mesh. (Can't let a good classic skin by C6 go to waste now can we? ^_^) Texas Jack's Punisher. It looks just as good if not better. :thumbup:
i'll have to try it.
c6's punisher does look good.ok heres another one.billdamn's tick skin,bobby 69's male_muscular_points mesh(yahoo group 1), and rens wildcat kf's.i called him the blue badger.
I took Atomic Robot's Dirty Harry skin for Male Suit/Male Suit Guns and put it on the new Male Suit Gun mesh. I had to do a little work on the face, but only copy and paste stuff. The best thing is he draws his pistol to fire it, instead of walking around with it in his fist all the time.

I didn't know you could use one of rens kf's on a bobby 69 mesh so i haven't tried it yet...sounds cool though.
I had an issue with Inks Huntress mesh where the default skin appeared topless (ok how much of an issue is that really?) Regardless, I never did figure out why she left her top home so i was screwing around and ended up using an older Huntress skin (the one in the purple outfit) on that mesh and it created a blended outfit with the new mask, hair and cape style with the old color scheme - i actually like it better than Huntress's current costume (or any other for that matter)
I can't tell you at the moment which one of the skins it was, but it was for the female-cape mesh - I believe I got it from one of the folks archived on alex's Freedom Fortress
i'm a real stickler when it comes to height comparisons between characters.never could find a good mesh for colossus.basics were to small and to me male_heavy was too bulky for him.not anymore.thanks to hitman and c6 i found the right combo.hitmans mr.incredible skope with c6's colossus skin(or any of the colossus skins out...i think ive got them all).

you do know there is a colossus mesh right ?
firestorms kgbeast skin looks very good on jiks male_heavy_chaingun mesh.i had to use c6's extra.tga's from his punisher chaingun skin to make the gun show up for kgbeast.i know gren made a colossus mesh but i thought col. needed to be taller.
Anoter one I thought of: any character that should have a gun (but doens't) on either the Phantom mesh or Adam Strange. Just about any Male Belt skin will go on The Phantom; hide some stuff on Adam Strange (or get a pre-hexeditied mesh from FX Force) and put guys that could use a raygun on it.
i've come up with some good characters doing that.i thought unkoman's avatar skin needed something so i put him on his very own hex of nick fury.now he has a jet pack and a gun.i also took a red skull skin and put it on ren's noman_no cloak mesh and came up with a cool red skull with a gun.

... I hadn't thought of that. That's beautiful.
got a new one...daglobs blackbat skin and put it on billdamn's primus(hex of ren's hourman3)at billdamnsoriginalskinspot,with ren's original mr. terrific kf's.it looks cool.use the extra.tga's from the primus hex.
anybody want a vx_captain mar-vell?i took the vx_apollo mesh,gave it c6's capt. mar-vell skin,then went to http://spectralknightsffskingdom.freedomforceforever.com and got the captain britian 6 pack,and copied the extra.tga from the Britanic skin and placed it in the capt. mar-vell skin folder to give it blonde hair.looks very good.
a few quick ones,
almost all female skins to a hex of ink's black canary,or jim lee rogue without the extras
tortuga skin to male heavy + renegade's killer croc keyframe
hydra soldiers, hive soldiers, blood soldiers, some gijoe skins, shield agents into a skope of solid snake with only the gun and machine gun
Erradicator, Mon El, Paradox, Matrix, Hawk, Supernova, Pinacle, Red Robin into ink's superman no shield no hammer, no belt and no hair... looks pretty nice
zombie skins and jason on male hunchback
King Zero, MJB, icicle, Xstream on iceman gold hex withouth the sparks...
Wonder Woman Matrix, on X-treme_sage
has anyone tried my overlay mesh? it lets you mix and match different alpha tga's to get brand new skins.
Recently found a Melody Rogers (daughter of Diana Prince and Steve Rogers) which was done for the Eve mesh. Simple as anything to put it on a hexed Amazon Armored mesh. She won't throw the darn shield, though...

I've played with it a little. I think it is a neat little program/add-on/whatever.
Another, well, it isn't exactly a mix and match, but...
... I painted a silver-age Fly skin on a Yellowjacket mesh. It looks 'way better than the attempt at using Male Alpha Collar. I may re-do that on a Tom Versatile mesh so that he can have his Buzz Gun. And the wings ought to be alpha enabled. Hmmm...
You know, I have a fly girl mesh with a Buzz Gun.
Someone kindly removed the cape from Volsung's Timm_Superman mesh for me, and I put C6's animated (Justice League Unlimited) Captain Atom and Jax-Ur skins on it. It looks great.
I also put his JLU Bizarro skin on the Timm_Superman mesh, and JLU John Stewart and Parasite on the Timm_male_basic mesh.

...and does it need a skin?
Probably an obvious one, but Tommyboy's latest mr_fantastic_tvf mesh works well with Plastic Man, Elongated Man, Metamorpho, Shadowthief and pretty every other male_basic compatibable stretchy character skin available.
My avatar is a shape-shifting android. I hope to have him wehre he can switch between Texas Jack's Sandman, Plastic Man, and both of Tommy's Mr. Fantastics. Then give each one of them Shape Shift...
well ive been playing around and found a cool combo for any hulking monsters you may want.went to fx force to the hexed meshes section to " other hexes 6" and got the maxx_gbt hex.as for skins el insensatez's shaggyman skin at alex's freedom fortress looks very good on it.looks like bigfoot.ive tried others that looks very good.thing_mk2, hellboy,hulk,abomination,garkain, ect...!i used the m25 keyframe transfer to give it a few extra attack kf's and tj's gorilla run kf's really look good with it also.alot of monster combos could come out of this.if it had a regular head instead of the pointed lower jaw it would also make a good grey hulk.
if it had a regular head with some skoped on horns and daglobs new rhino skin it would make a cool humped over hulking rhino mesh.
this isnt much but i used the m25 keyframe transfer on grens MHV_JUGGERNAUT to change his run animation.the guy never runs...he just walks and smashes as he goes.no hurry.removed his run animation and renamed his walk animation to run.just a small detail to fine tune a classic favorite.
If you drop Phantom Stranger's Kitten skin on Batgirl Classic Teen, it looks a lot more like the original character.
I think that C6's Tigra was meant for female_heroine_with_tail or something.
I've used it on Ink's Cheetah mesh and it works perfectly.
had to try some skins on rens hulk meshes and they turned out perfect.daglobs new brute skin on the hulk_speedos and quiet's solomon grundy skin on the professor hulk.try um...you'll like um.
take any black panther meshes and give it tj's male_nimble kf's.his idle kf is always in the crouched position.i added some flip kicks from grens batroc mesh with the m25 keyframe transfer.
hers an idea i got for hydroman from dynamite comics.take billdamn's waterwizard skin (http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/billdamn22skins2/?yguid=238165268) and replace all the male_basic.tga's with daglobs's standard hydroman skin's male_basic tgas.then re-name the file hydroman and put it in grens male_basic_fx skin folder.now hydroman has a bubble/water effect.
tried it and it looks good.c6's steel skins at alex's freedom fortess look very good on the jlu steel mesh here.http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/nightgroup5/
I was playing around with some of C6's great base skins and I couldn't help but notice that if you put his Metallic base with lines skin on Renagade's Thing mesh it bears an uncanny resemblence to the roger boch's version of "Box" from alpha flight.
gryphons newton destine skin looks good on podmarks mainframe hex with the extra.tga's from grens ironman_mkv2 mesh.
"quiet's solomon grundy skin on the professor hulk" --- GOLD
he looks just like the grundy on the JLU cartoons doesnt he.i wish that skin was a little darker,more detail.it still looks good.
ok...try c6's mongul skin on rens professor hulk mesh.very cool.the ray gun works with him too.
grens avatar skin looks good on the ghostbuster mesh.looks like a smart gadget type character with a big honkin particle accelerator.
if you like the abomination movie look throw c6's new abom. skin on rens new hulk with speedos mesh or try it on the bi-beast mesh by gren.
ren...i love your new hulks.i get a kick out of putting different skins on them to see what i get.if you want a biggg bald bruiser throw c6's new absorbing man skin(human form) on the prof. hulk.if you want a really pumped up colossus throw it on also.check the messages above for other ideas.shaggy man next?
just a simple character idea,...found a character called lightning fist here http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/FREEDOM_FORCE_VandV/?yguid=288732208 put the skin on the vx_blacklightning mesh and gave it vx_martial arts kfs.looks cool!
"ok...try c6's mongul skin on rens professor hulk mesh.very cool.the ray gun works with him too."
How did you get that to work?
changed the male_heavy.tga to male_hulking.tga
I dropped the Male Basic Frankenstein keyframes into the Male Suit mesh. I'm calling it Male Suit Lurching and working on an appropriate skin.
Just wish he hips weren't so wide...
After putting Frankenstein keyframes on Male Suit V2 (looks better than Male Suit), I tried some different keys on Frankie. Male Heavy KF make look like Dick Briefer's old Prize Comic's Frankenstein (except for the nose). There is a bit of distortion, but I think I can lick it. Now I have to do a prize Comics Frankenstein skin...
I hope this is along the lines of this thread. I used nif skope to put the vx_cyclops mesh onto the vx_male wings mesh. Used C6's skin for his classic angel and classic cyclops to make the perfect vx_classic angel mesh. The only thing i had to kitbash on the skin was the round x-buckle. It was red with a black X, I just changed it to yellow with GIMP. It looks great. Angel now has glove cuffs, boot cuffs, and the X belt. Can't (Won't) post picture because all of the real work and credit goes to Vertex for the meshes, C6 for the skins, and nif skope for the tools.
