I know Bentongrey has the DC mod project going on, as such, I know that there are a few of us that are trying to help out by watching the Request Threads to pitch in when needed.
But I know that there are also a few other DC request threads floating around as well, and those of us that can, like to pitch in there as well. What I was thinking, was that possibly we could condense these threads so that it's not only easier to keep track of, and expand on the characters that are getting done, but also to maybe help the DC mod broaden a little more.
Thoughts, imputs?
Sounds like a great idea, I'll go through my files, see what else needs doing. I'll also cross post my outstanding requests here, and continue to post in this thread.
As I've said in my mod folder, I'm quite open to suggestions about characters to include, so feel free to make suggestions, just check that thread to make sure I don't already have them!
:EDIT: This is the only outstanding request, I believe. The Key, Robot man, and Cheeta are all in KS's capable hands.
Alrighty guys, I've just come across something that made me really excited! If found some cool Aquaman villains that I hadn't heard of before! These guys are specially engineered parademons from apokolips who have been trained in underwater combat. I give you: The Deep Six!
I can't find close ups of the other three, but the first pick is pretty clear.

Now, if a skinner would be so kind as to return the favor ;)
I think a skoped version of Jugger_Grimrod would be perfect for Gole, while the Mantis mesh might work for Jaffar. Probably something from a TV can be worked out for Trok, and Slig and Shaligo could both be hexed out of Tommy's Parademon_TV....I think. Kurin....I'm thinkin' he might be do-able out of a TV as well.
Hey guys I am deffinately in, I have been brain storming hexes of the Turtleman, Calanderman, Calculator, Time commander, Golden Glider and several others. I also am finishing a skin for the Pied Piper. As well as volunteering for the Deep Six. Maybe we should start with a family concept. Like maybe doing Barry the Flash Allen's enemies and friends. Then say maybe some Atom or whatever character family. Then we could maybe knock some out systematically. I've done a few Aquaman characters. But with nifscope now I think I could actually do the Terrible Three and some of the other Aquaman enemies that seemed out of reach before. Well any way I'll be doing some skinning on Wednesday. So hopefully I'll have some new releases then.
QuoteMaybe we should start with a family concept. Like maybe doing Barry the Flash Allen's enemies and friends. Then say maybe some Atom or whatever character family. Then we could maybe knock some out systematically.
That sounds fairly logical. Then with each group that gets more or less finished, there could be another update to the mod?
Hey guys. I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but my "getting up to date thread" in the requests has a list I've been updating as the first post for characters that are on current teams that haven't been done, or need updating to very different costumes.
Yeah, I was just thinking that it would be easier if there was one thread for DC characters and another thread for Marvel characters that could be added to Death's Mod. Or even if someone just wants the characters for personal use.
Just to be clear, I'm not putting the newest costumes into my mod, unless they happen to be a ridiculous improvement. Mine is mostly classic style. I think KS is on to something, as far as updates to the mod...haha, y'all are determined to give me more work, huh? Well, considering the pace that these things usually come at, I suppose I can manage it.
Alright, here's a new one, Mantis, from Darkseid's armies. Here is a few pics:
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character.asp?UniqueId=755
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantis_%28DC_Comics%29
I've got a hexed mesh, but if anyone can think of something that might fit him better (the one I have is a male_basic body) let me know.
beardedinlair made one http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/Beardedinlairmeshes3/
Yep, that's the mesh I've got, I was thinking about a new skin for it.
So, no response on Mantis? Here are some more Kirby characters that I'm looking for. I have no skins or meshes for these guys, but I figure they probably exist. The Forever People:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Foreverpeopledcu0.jpg
http://fastbak.tripod.com/fpeople.jpg
http://www.comicsinaflash.com/_borders/Forever%20People%201.jpg
http://www.mykey3000.com/cosmicteams/cosmic/n.html
I'm not much of a fan of these cosmic hippies, but for the sake of completeness, and for my abject love of King Kirby, I want to include them, along with a few other fringe characters. Their Super Cycle would be a good vehicle to include, although I don't know how I would handle them all being on it....hmm....
Anyroad, I'll also need Infinity Man, of course:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Infinitymandcu0.jpg
http://www.comictreadmill.com/CTMBlogarchives/images/InfinityMan-thumb.jpg
Oberon, Mr. Miracles side-kick of sorts:
http://www.fortunecity.com/tattooine/asimov/20/mm18sp.jpg (You can barely see him in the top right)
http://www.supermanartists.comics.org/silverage/Oberon-miracle01.JPG (a slightly better pic)
http://www.411games.com/comicon2k/dcdirect/miracleclose.jpg
I'd like the color scheme from the second one, if someone is willing to do him, as I figure he's probably never been skinned.
Hey Bent, I was actually thinking of doing Oberon. I have some skins and hexes of the Forever People. But not sure who did them? Mantis I am sure I could whip up a skin as soon as I get some time. Which has been in short supply lately.
Kssaints
Cool KS, glad we're working on the same wavelength here. Would you mind sending those Forever People my way? (If anyone knows who did them, I'd like to know so I can give credit!) No worries about the time, my friend, I'm in no hurry. My own time is more limited by work lately, so I'm making slow progress on the voices, and the final release can't happen without them!
I'll see if I can throw together a 'Skoped mesh of the Infinity Man, but seeing as how my skinning skills have been a little off lately, I may need someone to skin him for me.
Thanks Flash, perhaps KS will be kind enough to volunteer his services for the 'ol Infinity Man.
Always up for skinning. Infinityman or any others. I'll dig out my Forever People skins and see what it all looks like.
Cool, thanks KS. Check your PMs!
A minor adendum, does anyone have the joke mesh The Beyonder put out a year or so ago, the doctor_octopus mesh that was a real octopus? If so, or if someone knows where it is still available, I'd very much like to get it, so I can set him up as a summonable minion for you-know-who. Thanks!
You can find it here: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/BYD_hero_meshes/ (http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/BYD_hero_meshes/)
can I request a wondergirl (cassie) in any of her young justice costumes
Thanks G-No! What do they look like, TR?
http://www.quietmuse.net/wonder/ (http://www.quietmuse.net/wonder/)
any of those would be fine
Hey Bent,
I'm alive and kicking. Here is a preview of a 70% finished Robotman for the DCU Mod. Oberon is next on my list.
Let me know if Robotman is cool by you. Just need to finish the skin up.
Kssaints
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Robotman032507.jpg)
Hey KS, glad to see you up and about again, feeling better? Yeah, that Robotman looks fine, if you can finish him by, ohh, around 5:00 tonight, then send him over. If not, just send me the hex so I can set him up, and we'll just include the completed skin in the beta. ^_^
Haha, I can't wait to see Oberon, that angry little dwarf.
Hey Bent, I sent you a PM as to where you can pick up Robotman hex. Also Oberon is coming along nicely. I'll post a pic here in a little while.
Kssaints
Well here's a quick look at the progress of Oberon. He is on a male_dwarf mesh with gloves, skirt, and boots courtesy of Tommyboy. I ma adding a belt and square buckle. The hardest part is I wanted to give him some hair and can't get anything to look right. Any ideas out there? Well anyway I am off to try some more.
Kssaints
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Oberon032507.jpg)
Well I think I may have it!!! Here is Oberon in all his glory. Hope this is what you were wanting Bent?
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Oberon.jpg)
Great job, KS, you've really got Oberon pretty well there. The hair looks great, and nice mesh choice!
Here's another installment of the New Gods characters. Steppenwolf the manhunter. When he's done Kanto will be next as well as Mantis, the Deep Six, and any other New Gods that aren't done. So Bent let me know who you want or need.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Steppenwolf032807.jpg)
Oh Yeah,
I alomost forgot this one had been sitting around for a while. Lonar the wanderer. He may get transfered to another mesh. But he will still look the same.
Kssaints
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Lonar.jpg)
Two fantastic skins KS, I especially like the evil red eyes on Steppenwolf. You really nailed that guy! I'm not really familiar with Lonar, but I've heard of him. He looks pretty great too. As far as other things I need, I think we'll be pretty darn well caught up once you've cranked out all those you mentioned. ;)
Ohh, a quick mini-request. Could anyone remove the insignia from the cold warriors? I want Mr Freeze to have minions that aren't necessarily Commies...
I don't have the game installed in this PC, but if you send me the nif file, I'll take a look at it for you.
Also, I still haven't forgotten about the Infinity Man, he's still on my list of characters to 'Skope.
Hey Flash, thanks man, I'll send him over to you as soon as you PM me your email addy. I'll leave Infinity Man in yours and KS' hands. :)
Hey guys, I've got a question for you, more than a request, really: what mesh should I use for Giganta. I've got an excellent mesh for her, made by yellow_lantern, but I want her to be able to grow, and this one is not compatible with Tommy's size changing kf's. Any suggestions?
Tom's new tvlite_Fingers_Female? If it's compatable withe the size changing keys. With NifSkope, any extra pieces can be switched from the old mesh to the new mesh.
Hmm....that might work pretty well, anyone willing to take a shot at this?
Responding to BG's question in the Hero File thread, is there anyone willing to do up a skin for The Key's Key-Men? I figure it shouldn't be too hard, male_basic, or even male_noface. These are the only to images I could get of them, from 26 years ago. No idea what they look like now, but I figure these should work just fine.
(http://img292.imageshack.us/img292/4841/keymenty7.jpg) (http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/5348/keymen2rt5.jpg)
Thanks for posting that for me PG! I've got another question for everyone....white martians...what should they look like? I don't care for their comic apperances, and I'm not terribly fond of the JLU apperance either. What do you think? Does something exist that I can use as a rank and file white martian? I want to do a JLA comic-adventure, adapting the first episode of Justice League, and I need me some white martians for that.
:EDIT: Addendum, what about Evil Star's Starlings? They're minature clones of him....would anyone care to hex his mesh to dwarf proportions?
:EDIT2: More add-ons, working on my Hawkman story-arc, I realized that I'll need some Rannian soldiers at a later point, and I should probably include Alana Strange if I'm including Adam, so here is my official request for them.
Rannian Soldier: (On Adam_Strange_noheadfin here: http://www.fxforce.com/HEXEDMESHES.html) and here is an image, basically just a slight variation on Adam's design: http://www.angelfire.com/mi2/dcuniverse/rannsoldiers.html
Alana Strange: Man! She is hard to find images of, this is all I can come up with:
http://www.collectortimes.com/2002_02/Adam-Alanna1.gif
Guess who,
Well I could probably do the Rannian soldier for you. Possibly even the Starlings. AS for Alana I know someone did her on Alex's FF site. Can't remember who just now. But I know she's there somewhere. I could also do very quickly and easily the keymen skin.
Is somebody doing those Key-Men? If not, I call them.
Even if I'm not 100% on how the masks go.

Hey Unco,
I am almost finished. It was such a simple design I went ahead and threw it together. I'll post a look see before I go to bed.
Hey Unco I hope it is OK that I did the Keymen. I also did a version of the Key for the DCU mod. I did three different color schemes. Which one do you want bent? I could even do another color combo if you'd like to try something different. Let me know. I also included the preview pic of the Key that will be in the mod.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Keymen040407.jpg) (http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/TheKey.jpg)
Nah, it's fine. They were just neet looking fellas. The ones in The Key's colour look sweet too. These guys are funky.
Really I wanted to do it because I already had a base with that exact purple colour on it.
Haha, you're ridiculously quick KS, how about all three? I'd hate for your work not to get used, and that way we can have them set on random and have some variety. I found the Alanna Strange/Sardath skin, but I need the female_rockets mesh. Anyone know where abouts it might be?
QuoteOhh, a quick mini-request. Could anyone remove the insignia from the cold warriors? I want Mr Freeze to have minions that aren't necessarily Commies...
This is my first time working with .dds files, and since I don't have FF2 installed, I have no way of previewing the skin. I'll send the finished skin your way this weekend, let me know if it came out alright. Otherwise I'll skin the one for FF1 and convert that one to FF2 for you.
Thanks Flash, it'll probably be fine, but if it's an issue, a converted FF1 skin would do the trick, I'm sure.
Well BG,
Here is the Keymen I decided to go with. I also included the Key as well for comparrison.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Keymen.jpg)(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/TheKey.jpg)
Hey BG,
Could you send me the mesh you are using for Evil Star. So I can see if I can patch together the Starlings. Should they be dwarfs ala Oberon size? or perhaps just smaller versions of Evil Star with normal proprtions ala say Dollman? Let me know. I should have Hawkman and Rannian Sol;diers done by WEdnesday.
Nice choice on the Keymen, I think that looks pretty good. I'll send you that Evil Star mesh, and they were depicted as miniature versions of him, with odd proportions....so....it really could go either way.
sweet work kssaint
wish i can skin like that
Slight bump, I still need to find the female_rockets mesh. Anyone know where abouts it might be?
I have a copy. I could send it to you.
Thanks YL, that'd be great. I also want to PM you about something else, so I'll include that with my email addy.
Hey guys, here's a new one for you, Vandal Savage. I imagine he's probably been skinned...anyone know where?
Also, has there been a Bruce Wayne skin on the Male_SuitV2 mesh or something like it?
:EDIT: On a completely unrelated note, are there any kf's that would allow Tommy's HawkmanTV to use his bow?
Well, here's a new one, is there a Kobra skin out there anywhere?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kobra_%28comics%29
I'm also still looking for something that can work as White Martians, Bruce Wayne, and Vandal Savage.
i would like to take a crack at that kobra skin.
Howdy Clownprince, you are, of course, absolutely welcome. I rather thought that their might be one in existence, but I'd love to see you're work on this guy!
Well Bent,
If noone tackles these requests I will after I get the ones done that are on my plate currently. I personally have always wanted to do Kobra. But I am sure Clownprince will do a great job. Maybe I'll takle the 70's version. Anyway thought I'd drop you a quick line.
Kssaints
Hey Benton,
If you're looking for a White Martian mesh, KennX did a Martian Manhunter in his native form over at Alex's site (J'onn J'onnz-Native):
http://www.alexff.com/stuffKX-DC.php
I was trying to find reference pictures of White Martians, but didn't have a great deal of luck. Would this mesh need a tail?
Hey Benton, did you have any thoughts in mind for the White Martians? Otherwise, going off of hoss's suggestion
QuoteWould this mesh need a tail?
, I have an idea or two for a 'skoped mesh that I could put together.
It's my wife's birthday tomorrow, but since I have a class, I have to make it up to her this weekend, and I have a couple of papers to write. But otherwise, I should be able to have some time next week to get to it if you want.
A few requests:

(I think the last one may have already been done, but I don't remember who did it)
Hoss, Flash, thanks for the interest and suggestions. I don't really have any great love for any of the depictions of the White Martians that have previously been around. I'd like something with SOME visual links with MM, but also distinct from him. I was hoping that something suitable might exist, or perhaps some creative soul would make something out of their imagination. I suppose a skin on the native form J'onn might work, but also something with a tail might be cool. I'm pretty much open to whatever. ^_^
KS, haha, you're already doing so much, I hate to ask you to do more! We'll see what the community can turn up. I KNOW Vandal Savage must have been done already.
GhostMachine, I believe that WW has been done in that look, check Revenant's threads.
Bent,
Vandal Savage was done many many many moons ago by Copper Age I believe. But alot of his stuff is hard to come by. As far as Vandal goes I think he could use updating to a TMC mesh. So he could have use of weapons or maybe even a Deadpool hex.
You could be right KS, I'm not really sure what would be best for him, but it would be a good idea for him to have some kind of weapons.
avalon did an incredible vandal savage on a gni jedi mesh. check his yahoo group
Thanks DM, I can't seem to find that skin though. I've checked his groups, but no luck.
I recieved a very nice surprise in my email today, a white Martian skin and hex from Flash22798. It's exactly what I was hoping for, someone took my vague idea and ran with it, producing something at once hearkening back to J'onn J'onnz and at the same time very distinct from him. It's quite great, and hopefully he'll preview it here. Suffice to say, I think I've found what I needed for the White Martians.

Cool KS, glad we're working on the same wavelength here. Would you mind sending those Forever People my way? (If anyone knows who did them, I'd like to know so I can give credit!)
Probably me I certainly havent come across any other versions and of course IF they are mine feel free to use them
I also did an Infinity Man as well
QuoteI also did an Infinity Man as well
I'm sure yours probably turned out alot better than the 'skoped version that I sent to KS did.
Hey there All.
I've got a few things to ask?
Flash-I haven't recieved that Infinity man hex. Could you resend it? Plus I haven't forgotten the Pied Piper. Just searching for a more suitable key frame set.
Bent-I haven't recieved the mesh you are using for Evil Star. Could you resend it?
Phantom Stranger was the one who did the Forever people as I recall. I am redoing some of them through nif scope. Hope you don't mind Phantom S cause nifscope has opened up so many possabilities. I also would like to ask if it is OK to nif scope the ones you did?
I have got a really good start on a cool looking Big Bear that will blow away the skin I have that was on a male_heavy_hair_beard mesh. I'll be working on some stuff tomarroe and may have some previews.
QuoteI haven't recieved that Infinity man hex. Could you resend it?
Not a problem, I'll try to send it tonight or tomorrow.
Ditto, and looking forward to what you've got KS!
I finally looked at the skins I downloaded from the site laughing paradox posted, and I still need the Batwoman from the Superman-Batman "Vengeance" storyarc:
http://www.newsarama.com/dcnew/Oct05/SupermanBatmanCv24.jpg (http://www.newsarama.com/dcnew/Oct05/SupermanBatmanCv24.jpg)

Could probably be done on a hex of Ink's Batgirl Classic mesh, if anyone is willing to give it a shot.

No problem at all with you doing that just mention that it was "based on" my stuff or whatever wording you want that says something similar and I'll be looking froward to seeing what you come up with
Here is a preview of the first of the Forever People and my personal favorite. Big Bear. He's done on OX_thvlite. With all tommyboy parts. I had hoped to have the whole group done. But they will ahve to wait till the weekend.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/BigBear.jpg)
Woo-hoo! Very cool KS, he looks Kirby-rific! Have I ever told you that your style really suits Kirby's designs? It's a good match, my friend.
Well I am flattered by any comparisson to the King. He was an amazing artist and story teller. God rest his soul.
Amen to that, I read his New Gods comics not too long ago (lamentably without color) and they are some of the best comics I've ever read.
Howdy guys, one more request here. The Fisherman! This foe of Aquaman is getting something of a revamp in my 'comic' arc for Arthur. As far as looks, his regular comic look will work fine, and he doesn't really need his fishing poll belt or anything. My idea is for him to be just a regular man in an advanced diving suit, so if that helps you out at all....now, this request was taken up before, but I don't believe that time and real life have allowed that kindly individual to finish it, and as I'm trying to put the finishing touches on the mod, I'd like to see him done. He should be a practical possibility with today's nifskope options. Anyway, here are a few pics:

http://www.supermanartists.comics.org/silverage/Fisherman-Aquaman21_27.jpg
That last one is pretty much exactly what I'd like, although, once again, he doesn't need the pole. He might do well with a spear gun of some sort, however? I'm pretty sure a TV would work for him. Any takers?
I'm going to give The Fisherman a shot, Benton. Of course, this doesn't mean that no one else should try it. I might have to PM you with some questions, Benton, if you don't mind. I'll try to have something late tonight (I'm bored and have nothing else to do).
Great news Hoss, and don't be shy with the PMs, I'll help however I can.
Ohh, and is there a version of Alexander Luthor, the superhero of Earth-2 out there anywhere?
http://supermanica.info/wiki/index.php/Alexander_Luthor_of_Earth-3
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Alexander_luthor_earth3.jpg
There's a version of Alex Luthor here on the DC Comics page (or is this his son?):
http://the.ultimate.evil.googlepages.com/home
I'm sorry I'm not as up on my DC history. I wouldn't mind taking a crack at him if this isn't the one you need.
Thanks Hoss, but that is indeed the good Dr.'s son. I'm after the Alexander Luthor of Earth-3, his look pre-crisis. If you feel like taking a crack at him, please do! ^_^
:EDIT: Ohh, and just for kicks, does anyone know where the albino animal form skins for the Ultimen's Shifter might be? I've got the T-Rex and Lion, but that's it.
:EDIT2: Speaking of which, does anyone have Val's cat versatile mesh?

I know that Multiplex has been done, don't remember by who, but I've got it if you want it. I would actually like to see Typhoon myself, I'm always up for more potential villains for 'ol Aquaman.
Quote from: BentonGrey on April 28, 2007, 05:59:22 PM:EDIT2: Speaking of which, does anyone have Val's cat versatile mesh?
I was *gonna* say to just go by NPI & pick it up, but NPI appears to be broke at the moment (for me, at least). I've got it (and the hex pack that ZD did for it), but won't be able to send it until tomorrow sometime (i.e.: the zips aren't currently with me).
Are you planning on using it/them for normal animals, or some kind of talking type (like a green-skinned one for Gar)? If you're heading towards the normal animal route, I may have a bonus for you. Last year I made up a lion and generic big cat (as well as wolf & generic big dog) voice packs, unreleased because I lost motivation before all of the documentation was done ( :rolleyes:). At the time I didn't know what extra voice lines :ffvstr: added, so I've only got ones for the first game done up. If you're interested, I could finish those up & post them somewhere (finally). Maybe that'll get me off my butt & finally finish the one & only skin I've ever attempted, too. :P
Exactly, PD, NPI seems to be on the fritz. I understand they've had trouble with the scum of the internet and been hacked. Anyroad, at the moment, I'm only working on getting Shifter set up (she has a big cat skin for that mesh), but if I can think of any uses for those voice packs, I will deffinetly let you know!
:EDIT: Hey guys, just thought I'd try and add some international flavor, does anyone know where I can find a Red Star skin?
Well Bent, I did one of him in his most recent look. It's in one of my Yahoo Groups.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/RedStar.jpg)
Great skin KS, but I'm kind of partial to his original look. If anyone knows of a skin, I'd like to use it, but if not we'll just go with the modern look.
http://www.titanstower.com/assets/whos%20who/aamembers/whoswho80/redstar.jpg
kewl skin :thumbup:
I've got a skin of Red Star by Firestorm. If this is what you want, let me know where to send it.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/RedStar.jpg)
Here's a preview of The Fisherman. I'm putting the little buoys on his net/cape and that's going to take some more time. I also saw somewhere that he wore a purple costume, so I've made a purple version of him as well. Let me know what you think.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Fisherman-preview.jpg)
Very nice work on the Fisherman, I like the netted cape. Yeah, I'd go with a slightly more purple version, but I think you're deffinetly headed in the right direction!
Hmm....I think I'll see if there's a more recent skin of Red Star's original costume.
Bent I think that is the only one of his original costume. Buy there could always be another one thrown together in short fashion. If you get my drift. The Fisherman hex/skin looks cool Hoss.
LOL, you don't need any more on your plate, KS, but if you feel like it, I'm pretty sure I can arrange for it to be used! ;)
There's another Red Star skin here:
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/helixgroup2
Thanks JKC, that's perfect, only for some reason the goggles don't display properly.
I just checked it out and that is a great Redstar.
Well here is a quick look at the next 2 members of the Forever People. Vykin and Mark Moonrider. That only leaves Serifan and Beautiful Dreamer. Hopefully all will be done by Tuesday night. Then I'll begin on the Deep Six and finish up Hawkman for Tommyboy's mesh for you Bent.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Preview043007.jpg)
Quality and Quantity. Man KS, you just keep getting better and better.
Holy crap! The Forever People!
Here's The Fisherman:
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Fisherman-preview-1.jpg)
Let me know if there's anything you would like changed or added. I couldn't really find anything suitable for the spear gun you mentioned and the only thing that would work for his fishing pole is a cane or sword. I could try to add something better if anyone has any other ideas.

There's a speargun-lookin-thing on the Adam_Strange_wetsuit hex over at FXForce. Maybe it could be 'skoped.
There is a spear gun with Tommyboy's ocean master mesh on his website in the DC section.
The Fisherman looks fantastic! I don't really know what I could suggest....hmm...perhaps you could increase the contrast between the hood and his body? Make his body a little darker or vice versa? I don't know, I think it's lookin' pretty great, so you don't really need to change anything. I think that spear gun might be a good idea, and Ocean Master is just the right place to get it.
Panther_Gunn, your inbox is full, and I can't send you my email for that big cat versatile. If you see this, please send it to username@yahoo.com. Thanks!
KS, those look great! I especially like Mark Moonrider...I don't really know why, maybe because of the kirby squiggles....I've always like that stuff. Anyroad, I can't wait to see them all together!
The spear gun from Ocean Master worked great. I'll leave it up to you to decide on the final version.

Light Dark Contrast
Let me know which, if any, you like best. By the way, I've finished the Alexander Luthor mesh. Now, I'm just doing the skin.
Awesome work Hoss, the contrast version is deffinetly the one we should go with. Thanks man, I never really thought I'd see this classic Aquaman villain finished! Ohh, I can't wait to see Alexander Luthor!
Here you go, Benton. To quote the man himself, "Earth Three's first superhero!":
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/AlexanderLuthor.jpg)
Aww man, absolutely awesome Hoss! He looks just right. I like that look a lot better than the modern copy of Luthor from our regular earth. Where can I get my hands on these guys?
On another note, would anyone mind doing some periphrials for me? I would like to expand the world a little past just the heroes nad villains.
GCPD officer and Renee Montoya:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/montoya/06.jpg
If someone wouldn't mind skinning a version of Gotham's finest on the cop mesh, and Renee on the Policewoman_pants mesh. The color scheme and Renee's look can be found at that link.
Metropolis S.C.U.
I can't for the life of me find any pics of this. I'd rather like the animated version, but if someone wants to be creative, that'd be cool. It's basically just a cop in riot armor, silverish.
If you want to just PM your e-mail address, I'll zip them up and send them along. I appreciate you digging my stuff. Thanks. I know kssaints is doing a lot of work for you, but if there's anything else you need, let me know. I had fun doing these two guys.
Awesome Hoss, KS has got a lot on his plate right now, so I'm sure that we could use an extra helping hand. He's already skinned about half the DCU for me. ^_^
Anyroad, if you feel like taking a crack at the cops of the respective DC cities, that'd be awesome. I'm sure I'll come across other things as I go!
As a matter of fact, a few more just occured to me. KS, did you ever get around to the Black Manta henchmen? If not, I could use some of them. They are pretty much just divers in black diving suits, and they'd be good on the pv_diver hex.
Also, Mera needs a redux. There is a great skin out there, but it doesn't fit a mesh that is compatible with the female_swimmer keys. Perhaps a female_tv hex?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mera_(comics)
We could also use a second version of the diver as fodder serving under the Scavenger. They could look pretty much however, just distinct. Perhaps incorporating some purple?
Hey Bent,
I got the last two Forever People done. Not counting Infinityman. On serifan I haven't done his hat band with the cartiges yet. If you want it hexed in I will add it on.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/BeautifulDreamer.jpg) (http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Serifan.jpg)
Well Infinityman is done pending your approval Bent. Oh and I forgot to mention there is a pink version of Beautiful Dreamer, If all the Forever People are satisfactory I'll pack em up and send them your way.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Infinityman.jpg)
Hey KS, sorry I havne't posted earlier. I see that you're keeping up your excellent standard of work. I really love Serifan, really nice texture on the shirt and pants, and a nice exhuberant expression. I have a question about him, though. I know nothing about him, but wiki said something about 'cosmic cartridges,' does he carry a gun?
Anyroad, that Infinityman is also awesome, I especially like the detail on his goggles. Good colors too. I'm not quite sure about Beautiful Dreamer, though, she look like something is missing....maybe just some texturing on her dress. In some of the pictures I saw it looked more....rough...let me see:
http://www.supermanartists.comics.org/silverage/BeautifulDreamer-FP1.JPG
I don't know if you feel like messing with it anymore, or even if there is anything to fix, but either way, they look fantastic!
Hey Bent serifan has a band around his hat that holds his cosmic cartriges which look like a big tylonol capsule. He can shoot concussion beams, heat beams, produce a shock repel fielf, generate high gravitational force, create an anti-gravity effect, stun beams, and power a vehicle. I didn't put a hatband on him. But I can hex one in and some carterages if you want. As far as B Dreamer I kind of amalgamed her 2 costumes. But if you like I can do the tattered version. Probably would only take five minutes to fix.
Bent I tattered the costume a bit and added a smile. So let me know if this is better?
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/BeautifulDreamertattered.jpg)

I've got a couple pics of the comic version (was harder to find than you'd think). I can get them scanned & uploaded sometime tomorrow, if ya like.
So, he just throws them? I really need to read their comic. ;) Anyroad, I don't think there's any need to worry about hexing them in, he looks great as is. That little bit of a fix for Beautiful Dreamer made a world of difference KS, she looks 'right' now. Awesome, the Forever People are finished!
Thanks PG, that'd be a big help!
Really nice looking Forever People skins
I know that I had problems in getting Dreamers costume to look like I wanted it, I was always under the impression that she wore a slightly loose suede/leather dress (very 60's hippie look) that I just could not really duplicate no matter how I tried ,which was the reason I ended up skinning her with the later pink & white dress costume .
I have a Red Star skin at groups.yahoo.com/group/helixgroup2 (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/helixgroup2)
I'm sorry I can't post a pic for you right now because I'm not on my home PC.
But check it out anyway. I hope you'll like it. I'll be updating alot of my skins as soon as I get my PC back up and can nifscope them.
Helix, your excellent skin is actually the one I'm using, but for some reason his goggles aren't showing up. Any clue as to why?
So, he just throws them? Not exactly. He (Serifan) seemes to most of the time shoot them like guns. Strange as it sounds. But Kirby always came up with very unusual characters.
Haha, I guess I still don't get it, does anyone have any of these comics? I'd very much like to see a shot of this in action, and it's going to be a while before I can get my hands on them.
Benton, I just sent you the Renee Montoya skin (just the skin, not the mesh). I was going to take a crack at Metropolis SCU, but I'll wait for Panther_Gunn to post his pictures for reference. I was thinking the PV_RiotCop mesh for these guys. Is there another one out there?
My thoughts exactly Hoss, but I'm curious as to its size compared to male_basic...something in the back of my head says that PV is a good deal bigger....
Anyroad, Renee looks great, nice detail work with the lapels! Consider her added.

The only shot I've got, from the old Who's Who.
[spoiler](http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/7668/serifan1tm0.jpg)[/spoiler]
Ahh, I see! Thanks PG, I just couldn't quite wrap my head around that. KS, is there any way to hex in a 'cartridge' that he could use as a weapon? Perhaps put in a wand and shrink it? If not, it's cool.
Shouldn't be a problem to hex a cartridge. I will also see about finishing up the Manta henchmen and doing a purple diver type for the fisherman's henchmen. As well as the Deep Six and the Starlings. I'll kep plugging away.
Awesome, thanks KS, I know I can count on you. We'll get this thing done, some day. :D
Regarding Serifans Cosmic Cartidges the DC Database has this to say about them
QuoteEach cartridge is color coordinated and produces a different effect. Some cartridges emit a wave of concussive energy, while others may create a psychotropic effect in the immediate area. Still other cartridges are known to generate force fields and anti-gravity fields. Serifan activates these cartridges by snapping them in half
http://www.dcdatabaseproject.com/Serifan
Which is what I remember from the first series of the Forever People (I havent managed to dig out my copies as yet ) in the comics he sometimes used them by touching an individual (in particular in the Deadman story where he "bonded " Boston Brands "spirit form" with an android Follower)
As far as game play goes I would give him a mixture of using them like small grenades with various effects like concussion grenade ,freeze grenade etc etc and would have some of them as area atacks,the mental ones in particular and possibly just the one as a ranged shot .
Thanks Phantom Stranger, I think I'm getting the idea now. I can tell that he'll be really versatile in a fight!
:EDIT: I know that there was an 'astronaught' hex made of Manbot, did anyone ever skin an astronaught onto it? If so, I could really use that for a cutscene.....
If there isn't a skin for the astronaught hex, does anyone know where the hex itself is? I can just make do with the manbot skin. Also, I recently discovered another memeber of the Aquaman family that I hadn't ever seen before. Tula, the Aquagirl, Aqualad's gal pal. I could go with either look for her, really classic or the new version. Here are some images:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Aquaman033.jpg

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Aquagirl_Gleason.jpg
http://www.titanstower.com/source/whoswho/aquagirl2.html
I'm not married to either look, and I know they're two different characters, but not in my world. ^_^
Just like Mera, she should be done on a mesh compatible with the swimmer kf's. Also, it might not be a bad idea if it were a little smaller than the female_basic, but that's not a big deal.
Are you using the female_swimmer keyframes from the NPI website? If so could you send them to me since NPI is having problems right now? It will help me choose the right mesh. I'll take care of Aquagirl for you. Which version do you prefer? Do you still need Mera done? If so, do you have any other reference pictures? Let me know what else you need.
Howdy Hoss, I'll deffinetly send them to you. I'd say do whichever version you like best, as she's not that important to me, and I like both looks. I suppose the first one would mesh better with the other characters.
Here are some other reference pics of Mera:

As for what else I need, well, I'm sure there are about a dozen things that I'm forgetting. One day I'll need Atlantians, Dark Atlantians, Atlantian soldiers, Vulko, and various other things that I imagine have never had cause to be skinned. At the moment, however, there isn't anything that pressing, but did you see that PG posted the pics of the Metropolis SCU? Thanks so much for helping out man!
KS, my friend, forget about the Starlings, they just look plain goofy. I'm just going to retcon him and give him cloning powers. Sound good?

Are the swimmer kf's based off of the _basic meshes? If so, you could always use the female_teen_basic mesh for Tula (who I think looks more in line with the style & look you're aiming for on most other things). It's got the shorter hair, but not quite as short as she had. I had forgotten about her because she had died during the Crisis, but as soon as you said the name, I knew exactly who it was (just didn't know there was a new Aquagirl).
Interceptor did a "female_basic_swimmer_skirt" mesh, which comes with an Aquagirl skin. It's here:
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/jkcfreedomforcestuff
I received the keyframes. Thanks. I saw the posted pictures of Metropolis SCU and was just thinking about how to render all that padding. I've got an idea, but am open to suggestions. Thanks PG for the reference pics and the suggestion of the female_teen_basic mesh for Aquagirl. I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the post JKCarrier. I was writing this when you posted. I'll check it out.
Thanks guys! Speaking of the teen meshes, has anyone done an 'older' teen hex, older than the 14 one? I'd like to have Aqualad on a slightly smaller mesh than the male_basic, but not quite that small.
Hey Bent,
I'll take the Starlings off my list. There was a speedy mesh done I believe at age 16. I'll check and see what I can find. Also I am having trouble with my computer and Yahoo cooperating to get the Forever people uploaded. I'll PM you when I get some progress made.
QuoteSpeaking of the teen meshes, has anyone done an 'older' teen hex, older than the 14 one?
There's a male_basic_teen_tall mesh that looks pretty good, but it may be too tall for your needs.

I had thought about that mesh, too, but was afraid it wouldn't look quite buff enough for Garth.
Hey guys, I tried the male_teen_tall, and I do feel that he's a bit too scrawny for Garth. I'm basically just looking for something a little smaller than our Aquaman meshes, like Thor Reborn's hex of Robin compared to Gren's Batman. Something Male_basic proportions wouldn't be bad, just a smaller, slightly younger size.
:EDIT: Hey, I know I've already commented on KS's Forever People, but let me just say that I downloaded them, and they are REALLY impressive in game. Fantastic work, my friend, really outsanding! Big Bear is especially awesome. Same goes for Mantis and Fastback (sorry I didn't get these guys earlier, I didn't realize that you had uploaded them).
Hey bro,
I am so very glad you like them. I am humbled by your comments. I hope to get Kanto and the Deep Six done pretty soon. I'll keep you posted as to my progress.
Ha, well, you're quite welcome, my friend, I'm just thrilled that you've helped me out so much with my little project. Ohh yeah, Kanto, I forgot you were doing him, I'm really looking forward to doing him, since he really did need a hexed mesh!
I did two versions of Mera for you. I added a collar and a little more hair. I tried putting a tiara on her, but there was something weird going on with the alpha on it. Metropolis SCU is next on my list. Let me know what you think.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Mera-Sleeveless.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Mera.jpg)
Nice work, I like the green collar better. I think you could probably go a few shades darker on her jumpsuit, but nice work on the hair, good job hexing it.
Hey, Benton, here's my take on Metropolis SCU. I tried to duplicate the padding illustrated in the pictures you referred to. I used the PV_RiotCop mesh because of all the weapon animations and I liked the shoulder pads. I tried making the padding strictly on the mesh itself, but the mapping made the lines all crooked. So, I decided to use Tommyboy's armcuffs and went crazy with them. Let me know what you think. I'll take whatever constructive criticism you have to offer.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/SCU-gun.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/MetropolisSCU.jpg)
Hey Hoss, excellent work there! You did a really good job on the hexing, looks fantastic. Great work man, really great work! Thanks for doing this one for us!
That is a really neat hex idea.
The only thing I could say is... you might not want all the cops to be smiling.
QuoteThe only thing I could say is... you might not want all the cops to be smiling.
Point taken. I don't know what I was thinking. I'll change the look before I send it out.
Benton...
I was not aware there was an issue with Red Star's goggles not showing up. I'll look into it. (Sorry it took me so long to reply)
No worries man, I should have PMed you, thanks for looking into it! ^_^
sweet cop dude hoss delgado!! :o
Hey guys, I'm still taking suggestions for 'ol Garth. Aqualad needs to find a home.
:EDIT: Just to clarify, for those who haven't been watching this thread, by that I mean I'd like a male_basic type hex that looks appropriate for a boy in his late teens, basically not 'kid' proportions, just a little slimmer and a little shorter than a regular male_basic. Think, Animated Series Robin to Batman.
:EDIT2: Another note, I'm putting the finishing touches on the underwater versions of all of my aquatic heroes, and I was just wondering if anyone had any watery weapon fx. You know what I mean, like GL fx, but water? I'm trying to think of some different powers for Mera, and I find I'm rather limited by this factor.
:EDIT3: Another random bit of arcana, but would anyone be willing to take the end .nif of seaurchin's bubble trap fx and turn it into an object mesh? I'm going to let Mera create water cages for her enemies.
Isn't there a male_thin or something? Granted, it might actually be TOO thin, so I dunno. Maybe take male basic and just... shrink it a tiny bit? Would that work?

A thought just occurred, as I was trying to think of what other teen-sized meshes I had.....would Renegade's Superboy mesh be hexxable (cape & hair, I think) to work? You'd probably have to ask Ren if he's ok with that, but I think it might be the size you're looking for.
:charonwow
PG, I got Superboy and hexed him, and he looks pretty right for the land based Aqualad, however, there is a problem with the Swimmer keys. He gets all stretched and....Plastic Man looking when he's swimming.
Unko, I don't know if thin would work or not, but a hexed MB just might.
Hey there Bent,
Here is a quick look at 5 of six of the Deep Six and I threw in a look at my Kobra_DC hex I am working on to see if you'd want it also. It's his 70's and 80's look. Anyway the sixth member should be done soon. Then I'll get them all to you and a few other one's I finished (fishermen henchmen and Lonar w/horse). Let me know if Kobra interests you at all.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Preview051707.jpg)
Trok, Jaffar, Shaligo, Gole, Slig, and Kobra circa 1980ish.
Wow.......just wow man, those guys look downright fierce! Great work KS, and I deffinetly want that Kobra, one look is as good as another to me, since I don't really know that much about him. You're skin/hex looks great, so that works for me. I gotta' say, I think I'm liking Trok and Shaligo best, they look awesome!
Benton,
I resized the male_basic for Aqualad. I call it male_basic_18.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/SizeComparison.jpg)
male_basic male_basic_18 male_teen_14
Is that about the size you're looking for? By the way, I've got nothing to do this weekend. Do you have any more requests?
Hooray! Someone did Kobra!
Also, Deep Six look cool ... even though I've never heard of them.
Ohh, awesome Hoss! Thanks man, that 18 is just what I'm looking for!
I wish I had seen this post before I left friday, I was out of town all weekend. If you're still interested, I'll look through what I've got and see where the holes are.
You bet, I'm still interested in helping out. I'll send the male_basic_18 your way.

Hey there Bent,
Here is a quick look at 5 of six of the Deep Six and I threw in a look at my Kobra_DC hex I am working on to see if you'd want it also. It's his 70's and 80's look. Anyway the sixth member should be done soon. Then I'll get them all to you and a few other one's I finished (fishermen henchmen and Lonar w/horse). Let me know if Kobra interests you at all.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Preview051707.jpg)
Trok, Jaffar, Shaligo, Gole, Slig, and Kobra circa 1980ish.
that dude with the whiplash is cool!
>Hey Bent,

Yow! I've seen some good Robotman skins for Male basic, but this is fantastic.
daglob-glad you liked Robotman. He's always been one of my favorites
Raijin-the credit goes to Tommyboy for the mesh. It is truely awesome. All I did was my owne skin to go on the mesh
JakeW-glad to see someone has enthusiasm for Kobra
Hoss 20- Ilove the male_basic_18 it is way overdue
Howdy guys, sorry it's been a couple days without anything new happening on my end, but I've been plugging away at the first of the 'comics' EZScript mods, making pitifully little progress, but working none the less. I have a couple of skin requests, and one just 'where is it' request. First off, I need some kind of doctor or scientist skin/mesh. Nothing fancy, just something that could pass for a doctor. I'm thinking white lab coat here. I could have sworn that FF2 had some such animal, but apparently not. Anyroad, I'm sure something like this has been made at one point in time...so...can anyone point me in the right direction?
KS, I'm pretty caught up, so when you finish the Deep Six I'll build them in, but there is no hurry. I'll be gone for most of next week, all the way until the 10th, so I won't be able to work on any of this until then anyway. Are you still planning to do a hex for Kanto? I hope so, your Steppenwolf was so awesome that I need a matched pair.
Hoss! I haven't forgotten about you and your offer to help, but I'm afraid I've been remiss by not getting back to you sooner, sorry about that! Anyroad, I could really use a Penguin skin for Webrider's Penguin hex. It's available here:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/webridermeshes2/
I'm looking for the animated series version. Here are a couple of pics:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/penguin/
Let me know if you're interested.

yikes! for the love of God, somebody drop a cape on that bad boy, too! KSSaints isn't kidding -- an 18-year-old basic and caped could go a long way around here! :thumbup:
Benton, consider the Penguin request to be taken. I'll get to work on it right away.
ElijahSnowFan, I'll look at putting a cape on the 18 year old. I would like to be able to have it move correctly rather than just pasting it on, but I'll see how it goes. I'll make an official release of them if people are interested.
There is an excellent Penguin skin for that mesh by ... um, the guy who did all those Silver Age Batman skins. He has a webpage. You know, the guy? Sorry, I've got a total mental blank. :doh:
Atomic Robot, right, I have that skin, and it is a great one. It's got all of AR's trademark brightness to it, but I'm looking for something reflecting the animated series look for the Penguin.
Thanks Hoss, I can't wait to see how he turns out! Ohh, just a note, you don't have to worry about portraying his deformities, like his flipper hands or anything.

Not to take away from Hoss' fine work, but were you aware that Atomic Robot has two separate Penguin skins for that mesh? One based on comics and one based on the the Bergess Meredith portrayal in the TV show. Just to let you know. Oh and there was one based on the Danny Devito-Batman Returns version, by someone who used to host at Freedom Corps (where Toxic J used to hang his hat back in the day), but I can't remember who it is.
The original animated Penguin design? Ew. I always thought it a shame they had to base it on the movie. The skullet does nothing for him, in my opinion. I thought his later design was MUCH better.
As for guy in labcoat... You know I always wanted to take off the briefcase and gun and hat on O'Connor, and skin a scientist on that. Now I finally have a reason to try... Assuming he has a head under there!
If not... well I'll have to look around a bit. But I really want to skin a non descript scientist, in a lab coat. Will I be able to find a long coat mesh I can stand? A question for the ages.
Well, I am looking for that particular look, which I know that AR never skinned. (At least not to my knowledge)
Yeah, I don't much like the 'flippers' part of the design, but I can't believe you don't like it better than the later version. I mean, that one was just black and white. I do like his physical apperance better from that, though:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/tnba/bios/penguin/
But the TAS version is just a bit more colorful. Hoss, you can use the face from this above version, if it helps any.
Glad to hear you're interested in the scientist type too, Unko. Here's hoping you find a match! ^_^

Ohh, and for whom it may concern, I still need an astronaught of one kind or another, I'm beginning work on that 'comic' tonight, so it's a decently high priority.

Would it be easier to hexx one of the male_cape meshes down to 18 y.o. size, to keep all of the cape anim's with it?
QuoteWould it be easier to hexx one of the male_cape meshes down to 18 y.o. size, to keep all of the cape anim's with it?
:doh: I thought of that a couple of days ago. That certainly would make things easier. The only problem is that Irrational's male_cape comes with a belt attached. Ooleyman did a male_cape_nobelt, but I don't know his view on hexing/skoping his work.
I thought Grenadier did male_cape_nobelt.
I can't get the hat off O'Connor. I am going to post a request I posted a long time ago. Hopefully you don't need it super soon.
If you do, though, I can do a temporary one on male_suit for now.
Hey Unko, no hurry, I'm just using civs as stand ins at the moment, and they work reasonably well. I appreciate you doing this, man!
If you want, I did up a quick other stand-in you could use (if you would like a noticeble difference). It's just for male_suitV2.
Sure Unko, you can send it to my email addy and I'll get it when I get back home.
*Ba-bump*
Okay, a couple of questions: 1, there were some extra skins for the civilian boy mesh, does anyone know where they are? (This is just a bit of random curiosity) 2. I've been thinking a little about trying to add Uncle Sam and the Freedom Fighters into the DCU, does anyone know if they've been done? If not, I probably won't bother with it.
The old-school Uncle Sam and the Freedom Fighters, the newer ones who got killed in Infinite Crisis or the current team?
Old-school: I've got some great mesh/skins for Uncle Sam, Phantom Lady, Firebrand, Dollman, The Ray, Red Bee and Human Bomb.
Killed in IC team: There are meshes/skins out there for the current Ray, the native American Black Condor, and pre-mangle face Damage (Phantom Lady, Human Bomb and Uncle Sam were also part of this team).
Current team: hasn't been done as far as I know.

Are you talking about new, non-IG made skins? The mesh itself comes with two skins, in-game (at least the original flavor did). And you're thinking about the Nick Craft mesh, not the comic-holding mesh, right? That latter one didn't have *any* real keyframes (I know, I tried using him for King-Be's Team League once).
I know Unko did some civilian skins.
Jakew, yeah, I suppose original flavor is what I'm looking for. They had a cameo fight in the JLU comic and I was mildly interested in them.
Yes PG, new skins, and yes I suppose I am thinking of Nick Craft. I'll check Unko's site, Alphanaut!
I was wondering if anyone had made Harliquin from the Teen Titans, Possibly Gnaark, Golden Eagle (Both pre/post Crisis), Batgirl and her Flamebird costume, and maybe a Mal the Hornblower chara (Both pre/post Crisis).
I also wanted to know. Has anyone ever done a water enviroment? If so how would you work it? I know there are swimmer KF out there and I have them all in the skins folder for the aquatic characters, But I see little use in having them on the chara while they are on land.
Has anyone made like the JL Sattilight?
Is there a Zatanna Blue and White suit out there with the cape and the lobster thing in her hair?
Is there a Golden age Hawkgirl?
I am also looking for Liberty Belle and Firebrand.
are there any characters that are alien or semi-alien looking chara out there?
Tellus, Mermen (I found a Mermaid one), Gordanians, Harpis or Tygor, any number of Aliens from the Legion or creatures that the heroes run into... umm ancient beasts like what Alpha Flight fought, or the various denziens from any of the under-earth portions of Marvel, I know... blah blah blah... lol
Okay... well that is it for now.
Thanks
Guardian7
Here is a Harliquinn I made from a Wilykit... or kat chara. It isn't so good. but it is as close as I could get with what I found.
http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t225/Samcub/Harliquin.jpg
Has anyone done a skin of Zatanna's outfit when she first joined the Justice League?
I mean this costume:
http://www.3dheroes.com/micros/zatanna4.gif
Guardian, wow, quite a list there. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with most of those characters, and I imagine others might not be as well. It might help to post links to pictures of those guys/costumes.
The short answer is yes, but the long one is a lot more complicated. Eventually my DCU will include a handful of water maps...........eventually......let me stress that one more time....eventually. ^_^ Check out the thread in the mod section which talks about a new 'water' object.
The aliens....well, my mod will include both Gordanians (thanks to Unko), White Martians (thanks to Flash#), and I may include others as well.
Ohh, and I believe that 'Harliquin' is named 'Joker's Daughter.' I also believe that KS did her, she should be in one of his yahoo groups.

Oconnor's hat is meshed as part of his head. You won't be able to remove it except by fixing (remodeling the head) it in 3dMax.

Well I actually did to versions of John Fox. One of his Flash 1,000 identity and the blue/red costume. The blue and red version is here http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/saintsandskinners10 and Flash 1,000 will be released soon.
Thanks for the reply kssaints. I'll be able to get it later this week. Quick question though. Is it for :ff: or :ffvstr:? I have trouble converting some meshes, that's why I ask.
Both John Fox versions are for FFV3R.
Thanks kssaints. I just joint the group and am going to go on a downloading frenzy.
Alright......so, I'm not quite sure where I should really post this, but I figure since I'm requesting something, it might belong here. A while ago someone (I haven't the foggiest idea who) went to a lot of trouble and compiled a whole gaggle of DC and Marvel portraits taken from comics. I used this wonderful resource for a lot of my characters in the DCU mod, but since several of them are rather obscure, there were no ready made portraits of them. So, I'm putting out a call for help to the community at large. I would love to have a comic portrait for every character I'm including, and I'm pretty close as is. If those with comic collections, some spare time, what have you, might provide portraits for a handful of characters, that'd be awesome. As my friend has STILL not returned my copy of Photoshop....I could use some help! ^_^
Queen Mera
Tula (Aquagirl)
All members of the Deep Six
The Penguin
Two Face
Harley Quinn
T.O. Morrow
Per Degaton
Hawkgirl
Steel (something close to the JLU look)
There are others, but my memory is failing me. Thanks for any help guys!
Ohh, and another, more traditional request: Cal Durham, part of the supporting cast of Aquaman, and I'd like to introduce him in my stories eventually. I'll have to make some scans of his modern look, as I think it'd work better than his classic look. Still, this is who he is:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cal_Durham
Also, are there any classic Nemesis skins out there?

ya know, someone *just* put up a link to such a site, within the past week, but I'll be darned if I can find it now. Are there really no portraits of Two-Face, Pengy, and Hawkgirl?
Any particular artist's rendition you're looking for on any of these? Any particular costume variant?
Does Mera look different as a Queen than normal? (with that funky starfish-esque headband)
I should be able to dig up most of these, Pre-Crisis, with a couple Post, except for the Deep Six (unless I can pull something workable from Who's Who). Steel & Quinn might give me some problems, and I'm not sure about Morrow....I know I've got something with him in it (an old JLA story), but I don't remember him looking particularly noteworthy....just kinda generic science-y. If you have some skins that these are gonna go with, maybe you could post a couple pics for referrence, to know what look to aim for.
Thanks for the help man, I'm deffinetly looking for the classic looks on most of them, although modern artist's renditions are deffinetly welcome. For example, I use a Jim Lee Batman and Superman, and a modern pic of Hawkman. Yep, there aren't any portraits (that I know of) for any of these I've mentioned, except Steel, and it's not the version I'm using. Pre Crisis Deep Six is just fine, as for the others I'd prefer none animated pics, but a lot of them I'd like in the flavor that they had in JLU:
Aquagirl: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Aquaman033.jpg
Mera: http://www.newsarama.com/quarterbin/Aquaman12.jpg
Deep Six: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Deep_Six_2.JPG
Penguin: (I suppose his classic look will work, but I'm actually hoping for something in between classic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Batman287.JPG and animated http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Pengers.JPG, without the flippers and such)
Two Face: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:The_Animated_Two-Face.jpg
Harley Quinn: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:HarleyQuinnCvr26.jpg
T.O. Morrow: Can't find anything, I'm using the version from Alex's Freedom Fortress, he's got a cape...ughh...that's about all I've got.

But the Power Ring from here: http://www.mykey3000.com/cosmicteams/jla/img/collectibles/dcd-csa.jpg
Haha....hope that helps!
And another bit of randomness, I just realized that I don't have the kf's for the mesh I'm using for Alfred (thanks to TUE's awesome skin). Does anyone have JM_Talisman?
Hey there BEnt I have it and can get it to you as well as the other stuff I owe you
Thanks KS! Just let me know man! ^_^
benton check my yahoo group (lil asgard) for the steel mesh by felido I think
Hey Thor, thanks, but I've got that mesh. I'm just looking for portraits for those guys. ^_^
Hey Bent here is a quick look at Kurin. If he's cool by you I'll get him to you. I kind of amagamed his modern and original looks. So I hope he works Ok.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Kurin.jpg)
Hey KS, my friend, he looks great! Very nice work on the scales, he looks downright slimy. I think he'll fit in just right with his five friends...the sea king might be in trouble! ^_^ Send him my way and I'll get him added in immediately!
Ba-da-da-bump! (For the pics)
Sorry about that, I really haven't had any time to work on them until tonight/tomorrow. I did do some prelim research on some of them on Monday, though.
Mera was a little more difficult to get any decent shots of than I had thought. The image you posted of Per Degaton was a cover from the story arc I was planning on getting a shot from! :lol:
How much of their body do you want in the portrait? Full body? Head-to-collar bone (like the IG ones)? A little lower? Do you want blank, colored backgrounds, or do you want whatever they're surroundings are? (Mera would tend to have water, or Atlantean architecture, for example)
I'm not familiar enough with Steel's JLU look, but I do know that pretty much every appearance I have of him has the big "S" on the chest, which your ref. picture does not. If I don't go too far down the chest, it shouldn't be an issue, though.
Do you want the scarred side of Harvey to be that kind of grey from BTAS, or the classic green?
If I think of some other details I'm not sure on, I'll let ya know. ^_^
Hey man, no problem, I know how my memory is, so I wanted to keep it where I wouldn't forget about it!
Mera, yeah, she's not real prevelent. I generally like mine lower than the IG ones, something like a bust, sometimes going down to the waist, to give a really nice idea of the character.
Backgrounds, I like it to come from the comics, so backgrounds are pretty flexible, but don't worry about editing them out or anything.
Steel's original look should be fine, but if you can find anything close to the JLU look, riveted head and all, that'd be cool.
I'd love a gray Harvey, a-la TAS, but I also know that may not be possible.
Feel free to ask anything you need!
Ohh, I thought of a few more of these:
Tempest: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/74/Tempest_Garth.jpg/250px-Tempest_Garth.jpg
Black Manta: http://www.lorenjavier.com/images/blackmanta.jpg
Ok, here's some preliminary scans. The only thing I've done to any of them so far is rotate some of them so they're all right-side up. Obviously there'll be cropping done, as well as color & contrast adjustments made for the older pics. Take a look through 'em, & let me know if you think they'll work, or in the case of Hawkgirl, if there's one in particular you like best.
[Edit: links removed so I can access my geocities site again (bloody limited bandwidth)]
In a perfect world, I'd use the first Hawkgirl pic as the portrait, but it'll take a little work to get it clean enough. I'll rotate Mera so she's mostly upright for the portrait. Also, any objections to me using the image of Garth you linked to for the portrait? It's a pretty good shot, and I don't think I have anything better.
Thanks PG! Okay, for Hawkgirl, even though I like the cleaner lines of the first couple, I think I'd go with either 4 or 5, probably 5. Also, what comic are 3-5 from? It looks cool, and it's sorta' given me some ideas for a GA/Hawkgirl Brave and Bold.
That Steel is cool, but he sorta' has a weird look on his face. It'll work, I suppose.
Mera, perfect.
CSA, all solid, great work!
Tempest, no not at all, I have no problem with you using any of the comic images I linked to, with the possible exception of Manta, as I'd like one where his helmet wasn't QUITE that gi-normous.

A little late..but I'm workin' on the new Black Condor as we speak! :thumbup: :D
Hey man, thanks, but I don't think I'm going to include the Freedom Fighters. I'm pretty burnt out on adding characters right now, so I think if I did, they wouldn't get a fair shake.
I do have a new request of sorts, however. I need a set of skins, something that already exists would be great, for a female character. One needs to be blond with normal human skin tone, the other icy blueish white, like Mr. Freeze. This is for a civilian-esque character, so something that's not in a costume would be good. Even just a skin for Civilian_Female would work fine. Can anyone help me out?
:EDIT: Thanks guys, it looks like Unko is going to take a shot at this!
Yes Yes Yes to Kobra !!!! :thumbup:
Haha, a little delayed, huh? ;)
Anyroad, I know that there is a Black Mask out there somewhere...maybe skinned by TUE? Anyone know where I can find it?
There's a Black Mask skin here:
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/sfo_freedom2
Woah JKC! thanks for posting that link, i forgot about SFO_mark's skins... he had also done a cool Killer Frost too right? I haven't been able to find it anywhere... or was it you that did Killer Frost, I remember it having an insane grin, and i know how good you are with faces.

Just out of curiosity, are there any Golden Age bad guys that y'all feel merit inclusion? Not saying I'm looking to add anything else, but I just sorta' realized that I didn't have any in the mod.
Well, I can't think of any exceptional Golden Agers you wouldn't have...
Wait, The Fiddler? Okay, not exceptional or strictly Golden Age, but still. Actually are any DC characters strictly Golden Age anymore? It seems they bring everybody back sooner or later.
well, I guess I will put my DC requests here. :lol:

Hey Carlos I'll do Wildhuntsman on his horse for ya here real soon.
Hey KS, did you get that PM I sent you?
Haha, yeah Unko, they reinvented most of the villains that the GA heroes faced.....so....I guess they'll just be fighting Nazis......and why not, how about Blitzkrieg, Fortissimo, and Red Sun?
Hey detourne_me I thought I had a Killer Frost as well, but I did a search on my computer and didnt come up with anything except for a Taskmaster hero file for that character, so you might wanna check with him to see what version of that character he has.
Carlos, I sent you JKcarrier's FF1 El Dorado awhile ago, did you get it whenI sent it, and didnt it work?

These guys will, of course, be more difficult to find modern representations for. I think you could probably use the image for Mr. Terrific and Hourman that I provided though, maybe even the second one for Starman?
I guess it's a good thing I still have a few issues of All Star Squadron. ;)
However, I *might* have to use your posted pic for Mr. Terrific, as he wasn't in *any* of those, and the only thing I've got him in is the JLA issue where he gets killed. Might not be able to find anything workable in that.
For Mr. Pratt, which costume, exactly, did you want?
Good question PG, as I couldn't find any pics of the one I want. I'd like a picture of him in the costume with the face covering mask/cape combo. The one where there isn't a mouth opening. If you can't find one like that, I'll take whatever you can get. ^_^
I wouldn't go with FF WWII villains Fortissimo and Red Sun... However, since we are talking about All-Star Squadron, you could go with Baron Blitzkrieg. DC's Baron, that is. Just please please please use a redesign, because his costume is just about the worst thing ever.
http://www.collectortimes.com/1999_07/License.html This is a fairly nice redesign.
It mentions a character called Sumo, also. I have an issue with this guy... he's ridiculous. Forget Sumo. They probably made up some other guys, and Young All-Stars had some, too. Maybe you could find somebody interesting.
I assume you have Per Degaton and Vandal Savage. Both can be used in WWII times. And how about the Ultra-Humanite from back when he was an evil scientist, OR when he was in the body of a beautiful woman? Or both! Man, that's sort of super creepy. Of course then he went to a giant albino gorilla in bondage gear, so whatever. Also there's fellas like The Mist or Ragdoll, who passed their mantle, and whom you could use the old versions.
Then there's Captain Nazi. He's the Captain Marvel to Blitzkrieg's Superman. You could also steal some Freedom Fighters villains... if they even have any of interest.
There are probably a ton of other guys that nobody really cares about... The Gambler for instance, but they aren't so exciting. I'd say, if you do comics set in WWII, and you have golden age feeling villains who you aren't really going to use in your modern timeline, just toss them back.
QuoteJust out of curiosity, are there any Golden Age bad guys that y'all feel merit inclusion? Not saying I'm looking to add anything else, but I just sorta' realized that I didn't have any in the mod.
For the Golden Agers, I guess you would consider it an Earth-2 setting.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Earth-Two
So villains that you could maybe consider would be Cyclotron, Solomon Grundy, or the Thinker.
D'oh! I'm a bad modder, I have been meaning to respond to this ever since Unko posted, but I kept getting distracted......personally, I blame hippies......dirty hippies......anyroad, I definitely like that Baron Blitzkreig re-design, but I think he might need some work on his powers, or he'd be too powerful for my version of the JSA to stand up to. He looks great, if a skin shows up, I'll include him. I will definitely have stories concerning both Vandal Savage and Per Degaton.......or rather, I should say that I INTEND to do that. ^_^ I do have one massive crossover planned for 'ol Per, and I at least want to do that one. Most of my Savage stories are more modern times, but if people decide they want more Golden Age-y goodness, I'm open to suggestions.
I want to include Captain Nazi.....if only so CM will have someone else to slap around, besides Black Adam, but I'm not crazy about the only version of found. I thought that I saw someone working on a new one fairly recently, so I might include that if it gets released before too long.
I couldn't bring myself to include The Gambler......I mean, he's practically as bad as The Top..........
I've got the Ultra-Humanite, and I haven't decided what I'll do with him yet. Thinker......hmm...interesting.
Ohh, Cyclotron! That sounds promising. Are there any versions of him out there?
Re: Golden Age villains. The Golden Age was kind of light on super-powered villains--for every good supervillain there were a thousand generic thugs. Apart from the obvious Super-and-Bat villains, these are the DC (& Fawcett, etc) highlights from the 40s (as opposed to retcons), many of which Unko has already mentioned:
Marvel Family villains:
The Golden Age Marvel family had a better rogues' gallery than Superman had at the time, including:
Dr. Sivana (Kenn X did a skin/hex; give him any kind of beam attacks as super-science weapons; you can also make him summon robots.)
Mr. Mind (mind control ... not sure there's a mesh, though.)
IBAC (evil equivalent of Captain Marvel)
Black Adam (another evil equivalent of Captain Marvel who's come to hog the limelight ;))
Captain Nazi (yet another evil equivalent, and worse yet a Nazi!)
Mr. Atom (big radioactive robot.)
Crocodile men (who Jeff Smith brought back in his recent mini)
Justice Society Villains
The first two versions of the Injustice Society collect many of DC's better 40s villains, namely:
The Wizard (magic)
Brainwave (mental powers)
Per Detagon (time travel--in FF I make him summon various historical minions--medieval knights, futuristic guys with ray guns, etc.)
Vandal Savage (immortal super-genius)
The Thinker (another super-genius, this time with a cybernetic thinking cap)
Fiddler (mind control; I think tommboy did a mesh)
Huntress (basically Catwoman to Wildcat's Batman)
Sportsmaster (commiting crime with the power of ... sports!)
Gambler (trick guns)
Icicle (cold powers)
Harlequin (really ugly costume; committed crimes because she was in love with Green Lantern. Ahh, the Golden Age.)
Other Golden Age DC villains:
Solomon Grundy (who was more like the Frankenstein monster and less like the Hulk in those days)
The Mist (who is an excellent candidate for FFX's Dispersed Structure.)
Shade (shadow powers)
Rag Doll (ultra agile; can bend limbs into odd shapes)
Wotan (supernatural Dr. Fate foe; there's a cool mesh though I can't remember who did it)
Psycho Pirate (but the Golden Age version was just a nerdy looking guy who used the power of psychology to commit crimes)
Thorn (plant control ... pretty much what Poison Ivy would end up being)
the original Star Sapphire
Sky Pirate (according to Jess Nevins, "dresses like a pirate, flies in a balloon-galleon, uses a cutlass & gas-gun.")
Monocle (uses the power of, ummm, unusual eyewear?)
Azmodeus (supernatural power on par with the Specter)
Dummy (either a really short guy pretending to be a puppet, or a puppet somehow brought to life)
Hmm.......I suppose I really ought to add in Dr. Sivana. Other than him, all of these guys sound interesting: Mr. Atom, Crocodile Men, The Wizard, The Mist, Wotan, and the Thinker. Any info on any of these guys? Any any meshes, skins, or images?
:EDIT: I can't find much on Wotan, but the Wizard sounds like an absolutely excellent head villain for a Golden Age campaign. I may never tell that story, but it's got legs.
QuoteI want to include Captain Nazi.....if only so CM will have someone else to slap around, besides Black Adam, but I'm not crazy about the only version of found. I thought that I saw someone working on a new one fairly recently, so I might include that if it gets released before too long.
I previewed a Captain Nazi 'skope in the hex editing forums (in the "let's see what you 'skoped" thread I think). I wasn't planning on releasing it since I have nowhere to release it to. But if that was the one you were talking about, and you want it, you are more than welcome to it.
Regaardless whether he exists or not, Cyclotron is on my list of characters to skope. Basically, I wast to 'skope most of the Golden Age characters for myself (just so I can say I did and that I learned something new).
FLASH_22798 had pointed to this microhero site for character ideas/references:
http://jerome.galica.free.fr/dc%20comics/Jsa/allstar/ennemis/ennemis.htm
I'm 'skoping both heroes and villains.
Hmm.....I suppose I like Captain Nazi's original costume better, I suppose I had a different memory of that skope. It's nice work, but I like his original color scheme, it's unique.
Hmm, Cyclotron and Zyklon both look cool out of that list. I'll add them if you do them. I've already got the Sportsmaster, but I'm using him as a modern villain. (Probably a Blue Beetle foe).
Speaking of which, I know that a skin was done of the 'Mad Men,' but does anyone know where I can find it?
On another note, I'm getting sort of tired of messing with my Batman story for the moment and I feel like doing something else. Since I can't begin a lot of my other 'comics' without specific maps, I'm going to work on a Question adventure. To that end, are there any skins for Male_suit 1 or 2 that aren't Lex Luthor? I want something for a politician. And later on I need a General, what ever happened to that general skin for the cop mesh?
Re: Portraits
I *knew* I'd stumble on the site again. BG, is this (http://www.geocities.com/ff_portraits01/index.html) where you've been looking? Granted, most of what I've been sending you isn't on here, but a couple are. Not to say that I'm trying to duck out on anything, but you might find a couple quicker than I've been getting them to you. ;)
Hey PG, thanks! That site was helpful, I found a few different portraits, but I'm afraid that they aren't in the format I need for portraits, as they are JPG's. If I send you a handful, can you convert them for me?
As to those Golden Age villains, I've been thinking lately that I'd very much like to add Wotan in, mostly because I want a nemesis for Dr. Fate. Does anyone have any pics of him? Or, perhaps, does anyone have a suggestion of a mesh/skin that would work for an oriental mystic of great power?
Quote from: BentonGrey on August 14, 2007, 07:49:40 PMI'm afraid that they aren't in the format I need for portraits, as they are JPG's.
:huh: hmmm....I guess that's what I get for not reading the fine print. But, it makes sense, as it frees up quite a bit of hosting space, so as to not have two formats of each image (I don't think .tga's will display on a browser like .jpg's will).
For just converting, as well as cropping & resizing, I'd highly recommend Graphics Workshop Professional (http://www.mindworkshop.com/alchemy/gwspro.html (http://www.mindworkshop.com/alchemy/gwspro.html)), which I recommended to Podmark back here (http://freedomreborn.net/archive/index.php?topic=42913.0). It's trial software, but I've found no limitations in it, as would be typical with cripple-ware. It should hold you over until you get Photoshop back. ;)
For Wotan, take a look here (http://www.dcindexes.com/database/story-details.php?storyid=7385) and here (http://www.dcindexes.com/database/story-details.php?storyid=6028), for what his "current" look was (you're looking for the red & green guy), and basic color scheme, respectively. Male_basic_cape_midcollar should work in a pinch, and I'm suspecting there may already be a skin *somewhere*, but that's hazy memory, at best. I can get scan up probably Sunday night, if no one else has gotten to it by then.
Thanks man, a free program for converting is do-able! Haha, I don't feel like quite so big of a bum now.
Hmm.......Wotan looks pretty awesome, although he could do with some more color. Still, he looks sufficiently evil and magic-y. Cool stuff, and thanks for the reference!
Okay, I just came across a voicepack for Silver Banshee....I figure that if this exists, I should probably take advantage of it and add her on into the mod. So...does anyone have a skin or mesh?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Banshee
Oh dang, I forgot about Sea Wolf! YOU HAVE TO ADD HIM IN! A Nazi werewolf who lives in the ocean, is the coolest thing ever! Get me a big eared, gauntlet wearing mesh and I will skin him, even if I can't do fur. I need to see Sea Wolf.
Ah, okay. Now that that is over... So Captain Marvel is Golden Age in your universe? Like I said, I didn't know the timeline, but his villains do all feel very golden agey... and awesome.
That Deathbolt person could be cool. And Night. I don't know either one, but I dig the costumes on the previously linked micros page.
Among the things that I gave Cyber Burn was my Paint Shop program, so I'm hoping to see him take more of an active role in the community.
Otherwise, I'm really happy to see this thread going for so long, and to have been so productive. I'm glad that this was able to have been able to been of use to you Benton.
As for Zyklon, he's been skinned many times over, by myself, C6, meshed by Vertex and the Nifskope and skin by Burn, probably others as well.
Hopefully, if things go well, I can check back in with you guys soon. Take care.
Haha, he sounds pretty awesome Unko......and I actually just got an idea of a new Aquaman storyline.....cool stuff! If you can find me a pic, maybe I can skope it. If not, I'm sure someone will be willing to help us out, and you can go to town skinning him!
Captain Marvel will be, thanks almost solely to Alex Ross's influence on me, in the modern time of my continuity. Although......I don't know, maybe I'll have to reconsider this. I really like him being in the modern time, since I won't really be able to use him much if he's not. I think that, as a character, he works a little better back then, but for the over all world he works better here. Then Superman is still the first one with REAL powers.
Hey Flash! Great to see you on the boards again. I don't know what's going on that keeps you from joining us, but I hope everything is going well man!
Hopefully we'll see some great things from Cyber Burn. ^_^ This thread has been a help man, thanks!
I found C6's Zyklon recently, and now it's just a matter of adding him in.
Take it easy!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_Nazi
Hey Benton, is this the version of Captain Nazi that you were thinking about? If so, I'd at least be wiling to give it a try over the weekend.
I think Silver Banshee is at Alex's Freedom Fortress but I don't remember where. I have two Captain Nazi skins, and I'm pretty sure they are on Justin Tyme's page at Alex's place.
i think ren make made an capt nazi mesh
i may be mistaken
I think that was a skin for Ren's Master Man mesh.
The two Captain Nazi skins go on the Master Man mesh.
Okay, I've got Captain Nazi covered with Ren's Master Man mesh, but if you'd like to take a crack at a skin Cyber, be my guest. ^_^
:EDIT: Whoops, Unko, sorry man! I didn't realize that micros page went down so far and I completely missed that image of Sea Wolf!
Alright, I can't find a mesh for Sea Wolf....perhaps my memory is simply failing me. Can anyone either point me in the right direction for this, or skope him up for me?
Ba-ba-bump-de-de-bump!
The Vivisector mesh would be a good base for Sea Wolf.
I love those Axis baddies ... Sea Wolf, The Horned Owl, Usil, Ubermensch, etc.
Hmm, doing a search on the master mesh threads doesn't turn that up. Do you know where I can get my hands on it?
Howdy guys! Just working on a few things, kicking ideas around for an Atom storyline, and as such, I'm requesting one of his goofiest villain.
http://www.comictreadmill.com/CTMBlogarchives/2007/2007_Individual/2007_07/001520.php
Check out the picture there, he's the fellow in the front left. The Bug-Eyed Bandit........what? Quit laughing, I'm serious! Yeah.....he's NEARLY as goofy as the Top, but I have plans for this guy, big plans! Well....okay, so I have some small to medium plans, but still!
Anyroad, I'm requesting a skin or hex. Perhaps something on The_Ant? I'm not really sure. Either way, please don't do the little eye marks INSIDE his bug eyes. Just the bug eyes themselves. I know this seems quite silly, but upon seeing him, I really wanted to put him in a story!
Also, does anyone know the other three rogues with him?
On a previous note, I still need to find that Vivisector mesh. Can anyone send it my way or point me to it?
:EDIT: Ohh, and one last thing, I'm going to be requesting a few Aquaman villains as soon as I get all my ducks in a row, in the way of pics and such. Is anyone interested in taking on three or four skins?
The Wildcat wannabe is The Panther (sorry, Guns, ol' boy), while the guy in the goofy helmet is probably The Thinker. The other guy looks like Heat Wave, but why would be be in a Rogues Gallery with The Atom's foes?
Oh, wait: 'cause The Flash kept beating the snot out of him.
Thanks Daglob! I can't find any info on The Panther, who is he?
I remember reading this 'way back when. The reason I remember this guy is that those red things on the side of his head are his sideburns. Beyond being in a gang of guys, and the art being by Gil Kane, I don't remember much.
However, in Jeff Rovin's Super Villain Encyclopedia, he has a short write-up on The Panther Gang:
Led by the photo-editor of the Ivy Town Courier, The Panther Gang (also referred to as The Panther Pack) wear navy-blue body suits and panther cowls. A bold band, they not only rob jewelry stores and the like, but also raid gala functions, the photo-editor stunning people with a special flashbulb which releases "an electronic impulse so high-pitched" it knocks everybody out. "Special earplugs" protect the Panthers. The group is stopped by the superheroic Atom while robbing jewels at a beauty contest.
The DC Comics' gang's only appearence was in The Atom #27 (1966)
An evil photo-editor? Man, good thing they didn't have Photoshop in those days...
I think the boss is the only one a "P" on his suit. I don't remember how many were in the gang.
Thanks Daglob! There is story potential there, I think, at least in a good old fashioned adventure and mystery. I'll make a note of this, and maybe if my comics go on long enough I'll come up to it.
Just on a random side note, does anyone know of a Chemo mesh/skin?
Almost forgot, I'm still looking for something to use for Wotan. While flipping through Tommy's site, I figured his Baron Mordo would work perfectly, but we need a skin of that distinctive green face.
Alright, I found that Vivisector mesh, but I don't think he was quite right for Sea Wolf. So I've skoped up a TV version of him, and sent it off to Unko. If he likes it, that's one down.

I have seen a Mr. Atom mesh that is almost the correct shape for classic Chemo. I just don't remember where...
Ahh, I remember seeing that mesh somewhere, that would work fine. Still......the question continues...is there a skin out there somewhere?
Just so we've got a running list, I'm looking for:
The Bug Eyed Bandit and The Thinker:
http://www.comictreadmill.com/CTMBlogarchives/2007/2007_Individual/2007_07/001520.php
(They're the two on the left)
Wordan (Wotan):
http://jerome.galica.free.fr/dc%20comics/Jsa/allstar/ennemis/Wotan.htm
And the skin or skins for the Madmen.
hasn't JKC skinned Wotan?
I'm still learning all the tools, but I put a Cyclotron together for my JSA collection, but If you want it till a better one comes along, let me know.
(http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa49/Cyber_Burn_33/Villain_Cyclotron.jpg)
Quote from: detourne_me on August 25, 2007, 11:02:24 PM
hasn't JKC skinned Wotan?
Not me. I think maybe TAP43 did one?
Alright, first off, I've gotten a tenative offer on Bug-Eye, The Thinker, and The Madmen.
That's great Cyber Burn, you're coming along nicely man. He'll do just fine for Cyclotron. Thanks!
I've checked TAP43's yahoo group, but there is no Wotan skin, and according to my searches he doesn't have more than one group. Any other leads?
I have a Wotan hex and skin I did, if you want I can send it to you or if more people are intrested then I can add it to my yahoo group.
I was planning on remaking the hex using nifskope to make the file smaller, if you can wait I still will make a smaller file nifskoped mesh.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/TAP43/Wotan.jpg)
I also did a Chemo a few years ago, Renegade had shown some intrest in making a mesh for him back then but I haven't heard if he is still thinking of making one. I just was never happy with the shape of any meshes I could find. Plus I thought Gren's Sentinal mesh had the best animations for the character. Maybe some other mesher might be want to make a mesh in the shape of Chemo the same size as Grens sentinals and nifskope it onto the sentinal mesh. But if you really want it anyway I guess I can release it.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/TAP43/Chemo_pic.jpg)
Two very awesome skins TAP, and I DEFINITELY want them both! I think all those who have to download my mod would probably appreciate anything that would shrink the size of it a bit, though. ;) I'll tell you what, if you'll go ahead and send them both to me, I can add them in (since I'll have the meshes and kf's for reference), then if you remake the smaller version of Wotan, I'll replace it later on. That Wotan looks really awesome......so evil looking! Thanks man!
Okay, that gets us caught up for the moment. Once I figure out who those other Atom villains are, I'll probably place another post here. Thanks!
Alrighty, I've figured out who the other Atom villains are......and they aren't really anyone...I mean, seriously, most of them are guys who appeared in one or two issues...but a few of them look cool, and I figure that just gives me free reign in reinventing them, right?
[spoiler](http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/atom%20rogues.jpg)[/spoiler]
[spoiler]http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/atom rogues.jpg (http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/atom%20rogues.jpg)[/spoiler]
So.....we've determined who three on the left are, but who are the other three, eh?
Well, apparently the guy in the environmental suit is a non-named villain whom I haven't figured much out about yet. An ex astronaught who turned to crime...I don't know, don't ask me! He sounds rather too bland, but we'll see. I'm gonna' try and get my hands on the first two Atom archives.
The fellow in the lab coat is actually the Floronic Man before he went plant...we don't need him as we have his leafy form already.
However, this guy on the end is pure comic GOLD! He's the Man in the Ion Mask! Haha, I kid you not. He'll need a new name as well, but his look is just too awesome to pass up. It's like Destro in his pajamas! Apparently he appeared in The Atom #25. If anyone happens to have that issue, I'd really appreciate a synopsis. So, I don't know what his powers are, but I know that I really want to use him for something, and the wheels are already turning. If anyone would be willing to take him on, let me know.
:EDIT: Ohh, one more thing that I almost forgot! Can someone send me Ren's Sentry mesh? Thanks! Bentongrey@yahoo.com

Chemo looks fantastic. The reflections just WORK! I wouldn't have thought of that.
Did you notice that the old guy without the hat looks like Stan Lee?
TAP43 ... PLEASE put Wotan and Chemo in your Yahoo group! They look sweet!
Also, can you also put your Gamma Patrol stuff in your Yahoo groups? What I've see so far looks great!
Just because it's pure awesomesauce, here's the cover from that 'Man in the Ion Mask' issue:
http://www.comics.org/coverview.lasso?id=20086&zoom=4 (http://www.comics.org/coverview.lasso?id=20086&zoom=4)
Cyclotron is on its way. let me know if there are any problems with the skope since its a converted one. If I need to, I can re-skope it from preconverted pieces.
Alright, thanks Cyber Burn! GENERALLY those that are converted work pretty well, but you never can tell.
Just another piece of random stuff, someone suggested Blue Devil for a mission, and I realized I didn't have him. I found a great looking skin and hex, but I need the kf's for Helstorm by Fusion.
Count me in as interested in Wotan also. He looks awesome!!
Alright guys, I'm HOPING to finish a releasable version of the mod up this weekend, we'll have to see, but that's my goal. If not this weekend, I should be able to finish it pretty easily by next weekend. Either way, here are the things I'm still looking for:
Ren's Sentry mesh
Fusion's Helstorm mesh. (I'm going to hunt through my yahoo groups in a minute, but if anyone has it, I'd appreciate it you emailing it to me if I can't find it, as it's not listed on the master mesh list)
The Man in the Ion Mask:
http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/atom rogues.jpg (http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/atom%20rogues.jpg)
Now, the only thing I absolutely would like to get this weekend is the Helstorm mesh. The extra Atom villains and several Aquaman villians I'll request later will be included in a latter expansion pack.
Alright, I've searched through all of Fusion's yahoo groups, and just can't find the hellstorm mesh. Blue Devil is the last character that I'd really like to get added, but I don't have any kf's that seem compatible with the hex he's on. I'm open to suggestions if the Hellstorm mesh is no longer around.

Just on a random side note, does anyone know of a Chemo mesh/skin?
I have seen a Mr. Atom mesh that is almost the correct shape for classic Chemo. I just don't remember where...
Kennx has one in his stuff at ALex's freedom fortress.
Awesome, someone has offered to send me the KF's I need, so I'm going to force myself to stop adding things into this release after I finish with Blue Devil...I promise.....well....I'll try....maybe.....help?
I'm not entirely sure that this belongs here, but if it doesn't, just let me know and I'll post elsewhere. I'm finishing up the DCUG, and I'm starting to think of a few aesthetic things, like the main menu screen. Does anyone have a great group shot of the DCU from the Silver Age, or perhaps just after the Crisis? I'm looking for something that won't have characters I'm not including, like Nightwing, etc. I'm looking for something like this:
http://www.angelfire.com/mi2/dcuniverse/index.html
But with a more venerable cast of characters. I have found this:
http://www.intuitivewebdesigns.com/comics/graphics/jla/Classic_JLA_by_Alex_Ross.jpg
But as much as I love Alex Ross, his work is too distinctive to be completely representative...or at least, that's what I think.
:EDIT: I have found a really beautiful image of the cover Alex Ross did for the Crisis on Infinite Earths......and even though my DCU doesn't HAVE multiple earths, it does contain a really beautiful cross-section of characters, most of whom (other than the Legion) I've included. I suppose that if no-one can think of anything better during the next week, I'll just use this. After all, what I'm doing IS a Crisis of sorts, synthesizing half a century of comics into a singular whole...poorly or not.
I could really use some help with the whole background thing...I'm sorta' stuck. If anyone feels like helping me out with this, let me know. I've got some images, but the editing of them is giving me fits, and I don't really have time to mess with it.
On a more productive note, I am beefing up the Bug Eyed Bandit's minions list, and I was wondering if anyone knew of some giant insect meshes. You know, car or person size, that kind of thing. If so, let me know!
Unfortunately, the only bug meshes that I know of are the "ant_worker" and "ant_soldier" ones from irrational.
BiL made an awesome giant spider mesh
Does anyone know where that might be found?
On a purely aesthetic note, would anyone mind hexing the Etrigan mesh down to Kirby's original proportions? Something along the lines of his appearance in JLU, shorter than a man, would be appropriate.
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/jlu/bios/etrigan/14.jpg
The Freedom Force V&V group has R.A.M. on a VERY pretty giant spider mesh. The skins that come with it are metallic/robotic, so you would need another.
I'm not so sure Etrigan was shorter than a man; I think he just hunched over, so that his eye level was generally lower an a "normal" man's.
Then again, I haven't read those stories since they originally came out...
Thanks Daglob! I think that Etrigan is a little smaller than the average hero, although probably not by a great margin. Either way, the size of the mesh I'm using is significantly BIGGER than male_basic, so that could use some attention.
Which Etrigan mesh are you using? There's a TM_Etrigan on FXForce that doesn't look to be bigger than male_basic, although he doesn't have the ear-wing things.
Edit: Addendum: I *knew* I had seen a Wotan skin somewhere. There's one on Niech's Yahoo Group. It might be a workable placeholder until you get Tap's sweet mesh.
The readme is a little unclear, but I believe it is Ink's mesh. I actually just downloaded the TM hex, and I may go with that, but I rather like the skin on the Ink one.
Ohh, and TAP was kind enough to email me his Wotan skope!
Alright, I'm going to be requesting some of the secret identities of various heroes in the next few months, it's rather hard to actually tell a story without spending SOME time on their private lives. So, for a start let's see if anyone can help me with the stars of this month's The Brave and the Bold:
Ray Palmer, a.k.a. the Atom:
http://images.businessweek.com/ss/06/05/smart_heroes/image/ray_palmer_the_atom.jpg
http://hawkfan.50webs.com/jeanloringthelawyer.jpg
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/jlu/bios/theatom/23.jpg
Medium brown, slightly redish hair.
Carter Hall, a.k.a. Hawkamn:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/jlu/bios/carterhall/01.jpg
Black hair, thin face, blue eyes.
These guys could both go on either the male_suit or male_suit V2 mesh, they only need simple skins, mostly just hair color and eye color, so feel free to just give me a kitbash of Irrational's stuff.
As for those whom I don't need right at the moment:
Clark Kent:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/jlu/bios/superman/39.jpg
What has glasses?
Bruce Wayne:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/batman/51.jpg
Barry Allen:
Blond, blue eyed, not too much subtlety there.
Barbra Gordon:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/batgirl/03.jpg
Female Civ will work fine.
Dick Grayson:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/robin/33.jpg
He'll do fine on the Nick mesh.
That's all I can think of at the moment.
i'll like to also request some civies
hal jordan (with flight jacket)
selina kyle (modern clothing)
lois lane (modern clothing)
oliver queen (normal civies & stranded on island)
dick grayson (circus uniform)
john jones (detective)
Howdy TR, Atomic Robot has a Lois Lane skin (it's not modern, but it works) that is included with the DCUG. I was actually just going to use the Clint built-in mesh for Hal, as it's basically got the right hair and a flight jacket already!
There is a VX Clark Kent at NPI and Atomic robot has a PV Bruce Wayne in his Batman yahoo group.
Ahh, that VX Clark should do just fine! I was hoping to get a non-PV Bruce, with a more modern suit, but he's definitely a possibility. Thanks Steamteck!
Alright, going back to my idea of the running list of what I need, I'm going to keep an updated list of needs and links at the end of this thread. I'll be requesting several new characters for my upcoming Villain-Pack expansion. I'm trying to expand the villain roster in my mod, as I feel like I've got too few (yeah I know, hard to believe, isn't it) to use in various stories and such.
Villains I need:
Piranha Man: Aquaman villain in need of a better name. I don't really know what mesh would be best for him, but it should be something that can take swimmer keys as well as land keys.. ;)
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character.asp?UniqueId=882
Carapax: I don't care a lick whether this guy looks like this or not. He's a minor villain in a tin suit, I'll take suggestions for anything I can use for him. There is no need to make anything for him. I was thinking, maybe a Crimson Dynamo skin or mesh?
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Bizzaro2.asp?UniqueId=1033
Catalyst: I thought that this was a neat idea for a character, and he's got some potential to be interesting in a fight. Maybe a skope of Tommy's Superboy Prime?
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character.asp?UniqueId=1034
Firefist: I LOVE this guy's motivation. Haha, it's so ridiculous, but it kind of makes sense for a nut to do this. I'll take pretty much anything I can get with him too, so I'm open to suggestions for something that might fit him.
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character2.asp?UniqueId=1085
Muse: Once again, another villain I want to use because of his motivations. I guess he might work well on a DS hex?
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Galactus.asp?UniqueId=1038
Ian Karkull: This guy just looks plain scary. I'm open to suggestions here, maybe something similar already exists?
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character.asp?UniqueId=436
Airstryke: Someone that Hawkman can tangle with in the air, simple as that. DEFINITELY needs to be on a Sauron mesh...as a matter of fact, if no one wants to do this one, I'll just use Sauron.
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Bizzaro2.asp?UniqueId=1039
Matter Master: I have a feeling he's around somewhere.
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character.asp?UniqueId=1043
Piscator: The fellow with the veil. He should work on a TV skope. As a matter of fact, the Atlantian soldier skopes by Unkoman included with the DCUG would work great as a base for him.
http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/7671/aquamanv63705zv8.jpg
The Eel: I love that glowing eye....the guy all in black
http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/7671/aquamanv63705zv8.jpg
Marine Marauder: The red guy in armor. All I really want is just really an armored guy, I don't care about the tail or anything, just something scary looking.
Ion Mask: This fellow is an Atom foe that I'd like to use one of these days. I don't really know what he'd work well on, so I'm open to suggestions.
http://www.comics.org/coverview.lasso?id=20086&zoom=4
http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/atom rogues.jpg
The Panther: This fellow has got the makings of a great story, even if his costume isn't exactly inspiring. I have plans for him, an Atom adventure coming your way soonish. He should work well on Ren's Wildcat mesh. I will need two versions, one with the red accents on the mask, and the panther on the chest, and one without, so that I can have the leader and the rank and file gang members be different.
http://www.comics.org/coverview.lasso?id=20397&zoom=4
http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/atom rogues.jpg
7. Mr. Element: The first identity of Dr. Alchemy, and a character whom is part of an interesting storyline in the comics. I would really like to touch on it in my own work, although I may never get to it. Still, I think Mr. Element is sorta' cool looking and would be fun to use in the RR.
http://www.hyperborea.org/flash/alchemy.html
Secert Identities I need:
Bruce Wayne:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/batman/51.jpg
Barry Allen:
Blond, blue eyed, not too much subtlety there.
Barbra Gordon:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/batgirl/03.jpg
Female Civ will work fine.
Dick Grayson:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/robin/33.jpg
He'll do fine on the Nick mesh.
Heroes:
Aquaman in dragon armor: Since we've got a skoped Aquaman with trident, how about an Aquaman that is all armored up as well? Here are some picks:

Benton I have a really cool Bruce Wayne by Dirk Thorazine for the male_hunter_suit mesh,he was hosted back at electric freedom,just pm me your mail and i will send u the skin.
Thanks man! The PM is on the way.
:EDIT: That Bruce Wayne is great! The list has been updated!
I remember someone (Ultimate Evil, maybe?) did a Mary Jane Watson skin a while back... that might work for Babs Gordon.
Good idea JKC, that should work just fine. Does anyone have it?
UE did do a MJ skin, but he told me (during the spidey mod) that he would like it if no one used that skin in any mods. I'm assuming that goes for ezscript as well. But, if you really want an MJ skin...Detourne did one for me in my spidey mod.
Well, far be it for me to go against the creators wishes. Thanks Prev., I'll see if I can't find it in my copy!
:EDIT: Found it, that should work great, thanks man!
A couple thoughts:
Carapax: Would one of the C6 meshes/hexes work? Would help to keep it from looking too much like Iron Man or Manbot.
Barry Allen: What's the skin look like for civilian_male? I know there's one that's blonde, could it be used as is, with minor tweaking, or shifting over to a similar mesh?
Hmm, I don't think the C6 meshes have the right bulk for Carapax, I want something that looks more machine like, but you're heading in the right direction.
Barry, yeah, one of them is blond. He would probably work fine for Barry, I was just looking for something that wouldn't' have fedora, but I suppose I could certainly use the civ. skin.
Understood, and with ya, on the male_civ mesh. Is there a similar mesh (male_suit seems to have slightly goofy proportions, comparitively) that doesn't have a hat? Does the male_civ skin have hair on the whole head, or is there a big hole where the hat goes?
Well, I am going with male_suit at the moment for my secret identity characters, unless someone has a better idea. Yeah, the civs have big holes for the hats. :mellow:
As the door slowly creeks open. A stranger rears his somewhat familiar head.
He asks " Hey Bent is this the guy you are looking for?"
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Panther.jpg)
Oh, yeah me again. The reports of my demise were greatly exagerated. So I give you Airstryke.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Airstryke.jpg)
Kssaints! Hey bro! Welcome back, I thought you had dropped off the face of the earth. Ha, I'm glad to see you back in the saddle. Have you gotten a chance to play the mod that exists, largely thanks to your handiwork?
That Panther dude just looks awesome, you even brought in the red sideburns!
Airstryke looks great, but I think we need to darken the pinkish tone on his body, maybe bringing it closer to red. What did you skope him from?
Great to have you back old friend!
Hey Bent, RL has been a real bear in recent months. But things have gotten better. SO I thought I'd get back into skinning again. I haven't downloaded the mod yet. But will soon. I will fix the color of Airstryke's suitand he is scoped from the Sauron mesh minus the tail. Here is another one I tackled/ Ionmask on the male_suit_V2 by Gren. Hope you like.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/IonMask.jpg)
Well man, sorry to hear things have been bad for you, but I'm glad it's looking up. I'll send you a PM later today. I hope you enjoy it man, it wouldn't be half as big without your help!
Haha, the man in the Ion Mask! I can't believe that, I thought for sure I'd never see him done. He looks great man, and I think my made an excellent choice of mesh!
Well then perhaps you would like Ian Karkull on the same mesh as the man in the Ion Mask ?
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/IanKarkull.jpg)
Dang KS! In two days you finished off half of my requests! Haha, you're a machine man, it is QUITE good to have you back! :D
I like Karkull....he's creepy...and glowy...and those are good things for a villain! ^_^
ooh, here's a random thought that popped into my head: did you want the Barry skin to be in a suit, or in a lab coat? I'd opt for the latter, unless you had something else in mind.
Hey PG, I think that a suit would be more versatile, but I'll take whatever I can get. ^_^

(grumble,grumble) I was going to try it on PV Dr. Noface. Ah well, I couldn't have done any better, and the skin is a real beaut.
Sorry Dag,
When I get to skinning I just go go go. I guess I am a power skinner. Thanks for the compliment also. But I am sure you would have done a great job yourself. Hey Bent I am also working on putting together Firefist for you as well. I am also doing Knockout who was requested elsewhere. I hope to have the finishing touches on all the skins this weekend and uploaded to a Yahoo group. I also have a few others that have been sitting around that I hope to finish as well. Well, I will be back in touch this weekend all.
Oh Bent, I forgot to mention one of the skins I had started thats been lying around my computer was the Eel. LOL Been wanting to do him for a while. But got off track. I'll try and get him done this weekend as well.
Freakin' awesome KS! Haha, you my friend, are ridiculous. Anyway, I can't wait to see your version of the Eel. ^_^
Hey Bent and Everyone else following this thread. Here are two more finished skins. Firefist ala Bent's request. As well as Knock out who is a DC character requested in another thread. She's and Apokoliptian Bent. So you might want her as well. Anyway they should be packaged up sometime tomarrow and released. I'll put up a Release notice.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Firefist.jpg) (http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Knockout.jpg)
Freakin' awesome! I love that Firefist, a very nice skope. What is he on there? Knockout, she's one I'm not familiar with, but that's a beautiful skin there, KS. I really like the detail of the spiked shoulder pad there, nice.
Well Bent, Firefist is on Ox_thvlite mesh and as far as Knockout goes she's a pretty cool character and at one time was one of the Female Furies. Check her story out on Wickpedia.
Cool, can't wait to get my hands on Firefox and the rest of these villains that you've skinned at super speed!
You know, Knockout does have an interesting story, but I'm always a bit wary of adding in Fourth World characters that the King didn't create.
Well Bent I personally think that the character has that Kirby-esc feal. Her costume definately fits the bill. Her story mabe she should have been a cocktail waitress rather than a stripper. LOL Anyway there has been an officail release and Knockout, Ian Karkull, Panther. Man in the Ion Mask, Airstryke, and yes Benton Firefist are all in my 10th Yahoo group. There is a link in the official release message for anyone who needs it. Hope you all like. The Eel and a few others will be ready sometime soon. For you bent here is a preview pic of the Eel. I really want to give hin an effect emitter around the eye. But haven't figured out how just yet. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Eelpreview093007.jpg)
Thanks for all of these cool skins Kssaints - Man in the Ion Mask whooO hooOO :blink:
Ha, yeah, she does LOOK the part KS, but I'll have to put some thought into her character. I've grabbed all your releases, and I'm gonna' add them in today...now I've just got to figure out what Ion Mask's powers actually are..... :huh:
The Eel, let's see....I think you've got a really good start their, but you're definitely going to run into the limitations of the mesh. As far as the skin itself...I think he's a little too light, he's more black than blue, but you're not very far off. You managed to capture his weird mouth pretty darn well, which is impressive 'cause it's the most obscure part him in just about every picture I've seen. Yeah, a glowing eye would be kick-awesome! Maybe you should post a question in the skins section. You might attract some of the experts there. :D
http://www.mycomicshop.com/viewissue?IVID=9400961
In the interest of keeping my list in sight, I'm reposting it on this page. KS has already put a huge dent in it, but there are still characters that need doing. I'm pretty sure that the Matter Master has already been done, I just can't find him.

Hey Bent,
I am going to tackle Eel, Matter Master, and Mr. Element. I also did another DC villian just on my own. Dominus is a Superman villian that I thought was kind of cool. So don't know if you'd be interested or not? But here's a look at him. As far as Matter Master do you want the version in your link or the slightly older version from the 70's where he wore a wizards cap and his main color was green? Any way back off to skin and hex some more.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Dominus.jpg)
Freakin' heck KS, that guy is awesome! There is a really great story in there, and I think I may have to design a Superman story in EZScript to take advantage of it.
Cool ... I love these villains! Looking forward to seeing Matter Master, too.
Well Jake and Bent here is the next installment. Mister Element.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/MrElement.jpg)
Well one more update before bed tonight. I messed around a bit with the Eel and had some really erie looking results. In playing with the reflect I was able to get his skin to look almost oily as he moves and the blood viens too look almost like they are pumping. You can't really tell from the pic. But in character tool it looks pretty cool. I still haven't added an FX emitter for the eye yet. Will work on that later in the week.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Eel.jpg)
KS, I just realized that I didn't answer your question, sorry about that man! I'm sorta' torn, I like the simplicity of Matter master's current costume, but at the same time, I really love the whole 'flying chunk of rock' and wizards hat elements of his original costume. (Probably like the 70's) I guess I'd go more for the older one, but really, it's whatever you feel like doing bro.
Man, that Mr. Element is AWESOME! I tell you man, your skins are great, but sometimes your skopes impress me even more than your skins! That mask is just spot on perfect. :D
Ohh....I LOVE the oily, shininess of the Eel, I think you've got his colors nailed down now, my friend. If you manage an FX emitter, I think he'll be picture perfect!
I just wanna know when Mr. Element becomes available.
Your Mr Element is perfect. Great skin, great skope ... that mask is spot on. You are totally on point with these less well-known (yet visually striking) villains.
GREAT job on Mr. Element! :thumbup:
Yes, Mr. Element has been sorely lacking and this one is very nice. I will be downloading it in the future.
Well everyone thank you for the kind words. I am very flattered that you like what I've put together. I am ona 7 day stretch at work. So not sure when I'll get Mr. Element uploaded. If I don't get he and Dominus uploaded this weekend. I should have time on Wednesday. I am also going to try and finish up alot of stuff I started and got sidetracked on. Then I'm going to get back to taking requests. Some of the characters I want to do are Golden Glider, Turtle, and Tweedle Dee and Dum. Anyway I'll also be updateing and changing my groups slightly. So that all the DC characters are together and all the Marvel characters are together. Anyway it is cool to be back in the sadle and I'll let everyone know when Mr. Element is uploaded.
Aww, Golden Glider! Sweet!
I'm sorry KS, your unholy speed with skinning just isn't good enough, I need those releases NOW! Ha, no worries man, take your time, I'm moving pretty slow with my end as well......but then, what else is new?
Well I took a minute and uploaded Mister Element to my 10th Yahoo group. So go get 'em. I'll do an official announcement when Dominus is uploaded too.
I don't wanna see this thread die out so here are my requests for some more dc goodness!

I'd like to second some form of the Green Arrow analogue from Earth -3
Something kind of like this perhaps

Very awesome, as always, KS. :D
Well here's another one. Superman of Earth 10. I wish I could stay on track. But keep getting pulled in many different dirrections.

Wow thats friggen awesome!!
Well here's another one Ijust finished. Killer Frost in her current look.

The Power Company Manhunter is at http://alexff.com/stuffKX-DC.php
Fatality has also been done.
That's the best Killer Frost I've seen yet. Nice!
Thanks for the compliment JakeW. I am still kind of tinkering with her color scheam a bit. If anyone has any advice here is the three variations I came up with. Which one should I release? Or should I do all three? Any opinions would be helpful.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/KillerFrosts.jpg)
All three, they all look great. The more the better :D
Awesome Killer Frosts Kssaints! I think you should release all three since there all great!
Well I uploaded 4 versions of Killer Frost and Superman of Earth10 to my 10th Yahoo group. Along with a few others that weren't requested in this thread.
Since this has been such a great thread, I just want to give it a little Bump. :thumbup:
Okay guys, I am still very pressed for time, but with things calming down a bit, I am finding my thoughts drifting back to my abandoned stories. I don't have the time to work on the DCUG just yet, but I am hoping that after the next few weeks, I'll find myself able to get back into it. In the meantime, I thought I'd repost my list. KS has continued to chip away at it with ridiculous speed, but there are still a few characters who need doing. I've also added a trio of Aquaman villains that I'd like to revive. Thanks guys.
Villains I need:
Marine Marauder I:
This guy was a fairly promising villain that never got enough attention or follow up...like so MANY of Aquaman's villains. Anyway, I have some plans for him in the Aquaman story, but they require this early version of him as well as the later armored form. I have a concept for a redesign courtesy of Heromachine, but I'm completely open to artistic interpretation. I want him to look like a special forces guy, and I'd like for green and red to be his dominant colors. I'm pretty flexible.
http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/marinemarauder.jpg
And here is his original look=
http://www.comictreadmill.com/CTMBlogarchives/2007Images/Adv449Cover.html
Red Panzer:
Great Nazi villain, this guy can serve as both a Golden and Modern Age villain in my DCU, and that's just too good to pass up. I'm afraid there aren't many good pictures of him. Maybe the Male_SuitV2 mesh?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Panzer
The Awesome Threesome:
Tropedo, Claw, and Magneto (no, not THAT Magneto). That's right, mega obscure Aquaman villains, and all together cool character ideas who were inexplicably never used after their first apperance. These robotic assassins will be serving a very different function in my Aquaman mythos...if I can ever get around to doing it. Claw might be do-able on a Mech-Man mesh, but I'm not sure about the others.

http://www.comictreadmill.com/CTMBlogarchives/2006/2006_Individual/2006_04/001081.php
Piranha Man: Aquaman villain in need of a better name. I don't really know what mesh would be best for him, but it should be something that can take swimmer keys as well as land keys.. ;)
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character.asp?UniqueId=882
Matter Master: I have a feeling he's around somewhere.
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character.asp?UniqueId=1043
Piscator: The fellow with the veil. He should work on a TV skope. As a matter of fact, the Atlantian soldier skopes by Unkoman included with the DCUG would work great as a base for him.
http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/7671/aquamanv63705zv8.jpg
Carapax: I don't care a lick whether this guy looks like this or not. He's a minor villain in a tin suit, I'll take suggestions for anything I can use for him. There is no need to make anything for him. I was thinking, maybe a Crimson Dynamo skin or mesh?
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Bizzaro2.asp?UniqueId=1033
Catalyst: I thought that this was a neat idea for a character, and he's got some potential to be interesting in a fight. Maybe a skope of Tommy's Superboy Prime?
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character.asp?UniqueId=1034
Firefist: I LOVE this guy's motivation. Haha, it's so ridiculous, but it kind of makes sense for a nut to do this. I'll take pretty much anything I can get with him too, so I'm open to suggestions for something that might fit him.
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character2.asp?UniqueId=1085
Muse: Once again, another villain I want to use because of his motivations. I guess he might work well on a DS hex?
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Galactus.asp?UniqueId=1038
Ian Karkull: This guy just looks plain scary. I'm open to suggestions here, maybe something similar already exists?
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Character.asp?UniqueId=436
Airstryke: Someone that Hawkman can tangle with in the air, simple as that. DEFINITELY needs to be on a Sauron mesh...as a matter of fact, if no one wants to do this one, I'll just use Sauron.
http://www.rapsheet.co.uk/RapSheetMain/Bizzaro2.asp?UniqueId=1039
The Eel: I love that glowing eye....the guy all in black
http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/7671/aquamanv63705zv8.jpg
Marine Marauder: The red guy in armor. All I really want is just really an armored guy, I don't care about the tail or anything, just something scary looking.
Ion Mask: This fellow is an Atom foe that I'd like to use one of these days. I don't really know what he'd work well on, so I'm open to suggestions.
http://www.comics.org/coverview.lasso?id=20086&zoom=4
http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/atom rogues.jpg
The Panther: This fellow has got the makings of a great story, even if his costume isn't exactly inspiring. I have plans for him, an Atom adventure coming your way soonish. He should work well on Ren's Wildcat mesh. I will need two versions, one with the red accents on the mask, and the panther on the chest, and one without, so that I can have the leader and the rank and file gang members be different.
http://www.comics.org/coverview.lasso?id=20397&zoom=4
http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/atom rogues.jpg
7. Mr. Element: The first identity of Dr. Alchemy, and a character whom is part of an interesting storyline in the comics. I would really like to touch on it in my own work, although I may never get to it. Still, I think Mr. Element is sorta' cool looking and would be fun to use in the RR.
http://www.hyperborea.org/flash/alchemy.html
Secert Identities I need:
Bruce Wayne:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/batman/51.jpg
Barry Allen:
Blond, blue eyed, not too much subtlety there.
Barbra Gordon:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/batgirl/03.jpg
Female Civ will work fine.
Dick Grayson:
http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/bios/robin/33.jpg
He'll do fine on the Nick mesh.
Heroes:
Aquaman in dragon armor: Since we've got a skoped Aquaman with trident, how about an Aquaman that is all armored up as well? Here are some picks:

http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/3011/jlaourworldsatwarpg273ob.jpg
The Sea Devils: I'd like this group of pulp adventurers to show up in the occasional Aquaman tale, but to do that, we'd need to have them skinned. All of the male members can be skinned on the PV_Diver hex, but I suppose June will have to be skoped. Actually, Nicky should probably be shrunk just a little as well.

Hey Bent,
I'm glad to hear everything is slowing down a bit. I already have a Torpedo done from a while back. Just forgot all about him. But I'll tackle the rest of the trio as well. Also Muse and Piranhamna interets me as well. So I'll update you on my progress. Oh yeah still trying to get the glowing part to the eye of the Eel too.
Thanks KS, I should have known you'd be familiar with the Awesome Threesome. Man, their name is just plain fun to say! Ha! Ohh, if you're still having trouble with the Eel, you might ask Tommy about it. He's been really helpful with DCUG stuff, and he might be willing to slap together something that could work for you. He's pretty busy, but I imagine it would be an easy thing for him. One more thing, did you ever take a crack at Matter Master?
Tap did Red Panzor, but it's not in his yahoo group. :(
Thanks Jeremy, at least now I know where to look. Does anyone happen to have this skin? If not, I suppose I can PM Tap.
Hey Bent old friend,
Matter Master is almost done actually. The only thing giving me a slight problem is the symbols on the hat. But I think I've figured out a fix.
Thanks KS, that's good to hear. I can't wait to see him man. ^_^
Phantom Stranger has the Sea Devils in his third Yahoo Group. They're under "Forgotten Heroes."
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/StrangersFFStuff3/?yguid=146027405
Thanks man, those will do nicely!
This semester is almost over, so I'm just about ready to get back into this stuff again. I'm working on the first Aquaman mission, and I need a version of the Marine Marauder as the villain. Thanks guys!
Villains I need:
Black Manta:
I'm looking for a new skin for Aquaman's greatest foe. I want something that captures just how awesome and deadly Manta is.

For Carapax and Marine Marauder, FLASH_22798 skoped a Crimson Dynamo and Titanium Man that you could check out. They're both for FF1 but are easily converted to FFvt3R. They're located here:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Skoped_Meshes_By_FLASH_22798/
Thanks Cyber Burn, a Crimson Dynamo would probably work really well. I'm afraid that those two aren't in that group, though. Does he have another one?
Sorry Benton, try this one:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Second_Rate_Characters/
Awesome! Those two are PERFECT for those characters. Thanks CB! I think Titanium Man makes a rather exceptional Marine Marauder, and it stays closer to his original color scheme.
I'm working on a skope for the Aquaman armor, but I don't think that I can reproduce the helmet. Any suggestions?
I'm really glad that you're taking that on, I was hoping someone would try it. That helmet is going to be tough, though. I can't think of anything remotely like it. TV has tons of helmets, and we may just have to choose something that looks OK rather than accurate. Maybe the top of one of the MACH helmets? I'd suggest posting a question in the hexing forum, one of the more experienced skopers might have a brainwave.
Hey, I was thinking about Hawkman villains, and I remembered I.Q. and his gang. I seem to recall seeing them done by someone. Does anyone know where they are?
http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p68/DCHawks_photo/hm-49-017.jpg
I'm not sure if they've been done, but has anyone created Fire and Ice in their JLI costumes.
I would do a search for them, but you get about a zillion responses if you search on "fire" or "ice".
I do know that they have been done by a few people, but mostly in their global guardian versions.
Here's how they look for those not in the know...
Fire (in the middle)

I think Italianpornastar has them on his site.
(http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa49/Cyber_Burn_33/JLA_Aquaman_Armored.jpg)
I think I got the basics down, as well as found a solution for the helmet (except for the ribbons or whatever that hang off the back). If there's anything you want changed let me know, otherwise, I just need someone to skin it.

Check Grenadier's Tyrant mesh for weird dangly things for the aquaman armor.
Thanks detourne_me. I'll check that out.
Wow CB! That's really impressive! I was completely unsure that anything approaching that helmet could be found, fantastic work! I can't see anything that needs changing. Really top notch man, really great.

Would somebody enlighten us? This time I'll bookmark it, I promise.

Also, for the AquaMan 'skope, I used Tommyboy's Neptune mesh as a base (If I remember correctly), so there are no real swimmer keys. Maybe someone else could put those in. (Check last page for finished pic)
I'm just keeping this in view, and I've also got another request of sorts. What existing skins/meshes could come somewhat close to the forces of an ancient Mayan god? Haha, I mean, has anyone skoped the cuban villager mesh with guns? Are there any central American native meshes/skins? I'll pretty much take whatever I can get.
Villains I need:
The Royal Flush Gang:
I've decided to try and adapt several of the JLA episodes into my first several story arcs for my own JLA tales, and I'd really like to have at least some version of these venerable villains. I'll take pretty much any version anyone decides to do.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Flush_Gang

The Awesome Threesome:
Tropedo, Claw, and Magneto (no, not THAT Magneto). That's right, mega obscure Aquaman villains, and all together cool character ideas who were inexplicably never used after their first apperance. These robotic assassins will be serving a very different function in my Aquaman mythos...if I can ever get around to doing it.

He should work well on Ren's Wildcat mesh. I will need two versions, one with the red accents on the mask, and the panther on the chest, and one without, so that I can have the leader and the rank and file gang members be different.

7. Mr. Element: The first identity of Dr. Alchemy, and a character whom is part of an interesting storyline in the comics. I would really like to touch on it in my own work, although I may never get to it. Still, I think Mr. Element is sorta' cool looking and would be fun to use in the RR.

The Sea Devils: I'd like this group of pulp adventurers to show up in the occasional Aquaman tale, but to do that, we'd need to have them skinned. All of the male members can be skinned on the PV_Diver hex, but I suppose June will have to be skoped. Actually, Nicky should probably be shrunk just a little as well.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_Devils_(comics)
Anyone inerested in skinning the Aquaman Skope? Not that I'm the biggest Aquaman fan, but I am really proud of how this turned out and I would love to be able to see this in game.
QuoteVillains I need:
Black Manta:
I'm looking for a new skin for Aquaman's greatest foe. I want something that captures just how awesome and deadly Manta is.
http://www.angelfire.com/mi2/dcuniverse/blackmanta.html
http://www.wizkidsgames.com/heroclix/dc/figuregallery.asp?unitid=2489
I'll take on Black Manta if you still need him. I've always been fond of the character. Any better reference pics?
Awesome Billdamn! Well, I don't have the issue that the other pic is from, and that's the look I really want Manta to have, but here is a shot that might be useful. I will check my comics for useful scans tomorrow.
http://bp1.blogger.com/_YUUAn5bgpwo/RvxD5q9ht4I/AAAAAAAABHc/T9XmC-pGfzQ/s1600-h/blackmanta1.jpg
Okay.....well, I'm afraid that I can't find anything that is really what I'm looking for, but here are a few shots of Manta in a slightly less interesting version of his costume. Basically, I'm looking for him in all black, with the helmet more or less in the proportions shown here. I'd also like to see the detailing he has on his sleeves in that picture I posted earlier, and in the first image below. A skope of the Manta_small_helmet mesh would probably work just fine, especially if it provided him with more kf options.
http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/blackmanta2.jpg (http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/blackmanta2.jpg)
Whoops, upside down! The photo on this page is very similar to the earlier image, and I'm afraid it doesn't add much, but here it is none the less.
http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/blackmanta1.jpg (http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/blackmanta1.jpg)
The top left panel may be good for helmet detail.

Yes...I know it's upside down too...bah.
I hope that gives you more reference material to work with!
Those are fine, BG. I'll get started on it today. Any chance you know how to get in touch with Saracen? I would like to add the leg holster and gun to the mesh.
Here ya go....
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v34/billdamn/BlackManta.jpg)
Ho-ho-ho! Check that out! That's an awesome job Billdaman, I love the extra detailing on the helmet and hoses! That is a Manta that has a lot more visual interest than the Silver Age version!
A big B-ump! for the last few of my DC requests.
That is a cool Black Manta! Where can I download that?
Because I gotta ask, anyone done the Timmverse's Question? How about Tempest?
Not a Timmverse version (as in the same proportions) BUT there is a skin for the male_hunter_suit mesh that is the same look. I forget who it's by, but it's included with my DCUG mod. Tempest has been done as well......I think you might be able to find him on Alex's site...but once again, I can't remember. He's also in the DCUG, though.

He is not released yet. I am waiting to see where Bearded and Yellow Lantern are going with the weapons for him. As soon as he is released, I will post it here.
Cant' wait Billdamn!
Just to let everyone know, I've also added the Royal Flush Gang to my requests.
Quote from: BentonGrey on January 04, 2008, 12:48:48 PMI've also added the Royal Flush Gang to my requests.
I heartily second this request!
I take it you've already got Firestorm's Ace & Ten, and Kenn's Hi-Jack from Alex's.
Yep, but I want to keep my options open, I'll take whatever someone is willing to make. ^_^
I got some skopes for the royal flush coming (wildcards jlu) soon and i'm sure tap would like to skin them
Awesome TR!
Another quick request...I'm trying to make Dr. Light more formidable, and I was reading an early Atom story where he was the villain. In it, he created minions of light, and they were warriors that were each one of the colors of the rainbow. Could someone give me some quick n' dirty versions of the Legionnaire skin modified to be one color, like the GL construct skins? As many of the rainbow colors as you care to, but at least the three primaries, please. Thanks guys!
I'd whip these up for ya, but not having any Third Reich stuff loaded up kind of hampers me with the mesh/skin. ;) How about ones done from vikings, gladiators, Roman soldiers, etc, from FXForce's Photoskins section?
Well PG, I'd like to keep from adding any unnecessary meshes, since the DCUG is already freakishly huge! ^_^ I can email you the Legionnaire mesh/skin, though, if you'd like.
hmmmm.....extra meshes.....good point. And if your'e doing everything in :ffvstr:, which I think you are, it will also save you from having to deal with a hex that may not convert very well. Although, if it were a mesh you already were using.......what about the mesh Vigilante is on, for a generic gunslinger? Especially if that mesh came with a generic already (or has one or two available).
As for the Legionnaire, I suppose I'd just need the skin, as without FFVSTTR loaded up, I understand I can't even use the Character Tool for it to view the mesh, and I don't think it will work in the older one. If you want to throw it up on a link (Yahoo group, geocities site, whatever) that I could d/l from, we could just avoid the most likely heatburn that Hotmail will have with it. :D Is it a tga, or the new format (I haven't messed with them yet, and would have to locate a converter or plug-in)?
I've got it, PG! How about the alien mesh? Those guys are the same in both FF1 and FF2, so if you skin the FF1 version, I should be able to use it in FF2 easy as pie.
On an unreleated note, I've been trying to find something resembling an end boss for my first JLA campaign. I've finally come up with a character concept that I'm really fond of, but I don't think anything exists already that will work for it. So, I'm adding yet ANOTHER request....I know, I know, and I'm sorry, but I really like this idea, and I'm hoping y'all will too. I don't want to give too much away, but the idea is that this character is a Manhunter, like MM, so the costume and colors are intentionally similar. A hex of Female_Versatile should do the trick nicely. Here is a Heromachine mock-up, but I'd welcome some different interpretations. I do think that the lack of hair would probably be a good thing, and probably the white cape and such.

I take it you're speaking of the Dominion aliens, and not Gni's Alien mesh. ;) Did you want them of just the warrior/seargant skins, or some of Praetor & Lord Dominion as well?
That's right, I suppose I should have been more specific, huh? Ha, well just the warrior/sergeant would be fine. That should be all we'd need.

Afghan Ant's "Venusian Womanhunter", maybe?
I actually have her already, and I'm using her for one of the denizens of the Anti-Matter Universe. I thought about re-using her for this character, but I sort of wanted her to have green skin.
Might I suggest a White Martian then?
At any rate, check your inbox and you'll find a link to what should be a good start: female_baldy_cape. She just needs bootcuffs.
Ahh...well...don't read this if you'd like to play through the JLA campaign without knowing the twists.
[spoiler]The idea is that she's a traitor to her people, working FOR the White Martians. She's J'onn's former partner in the Manhunters, giving him a more personal stake in the final battle. Since I figure that the whole "Imperium" thing would be rather difficult to find for FF, and it's just not that visually interesting.[/spoiler]
So, green would work better for the story. With your work so far, we're a darn step closer! If anyone cares to skin this:
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/crazy_lantern_2nd_floor/files/
And perhaps skope some bootcuffs onto her?
hey dont knock the imperium, I'm using them for my invasion
Good, then our mods won't have TOO much overlap. :D Is there any more to it than is shown in JLA? What mesh/skin are you using? It's not exactly like there is a plethora of amorphous, tentacled blobs.
BG, check your email. Dr. Light has troops to command.
Ohh man, these are quite awesome. As I said in the email, PG, thanks man, you really nailed it!

Villains I need:
The Royal Flush Gang:

Marine Marauder I:
This guy was a fairly promising villain that never got enough attention or follow up...like so MANY of Aquaman's villains. Anyway, I have some plans for him in the Aquaman story, but they require this early version of him as well as the later armored form. I have a concept for a redesign courtesy of Heromachine, but I'm completely open to artistic interpretation. I want him to look like a special forces guy, and I'd like for green and red to be his dominant colors. I'm pretty flexible.
http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/marinemarauder.jpg
And here is his original look=

The Flying Fish: This really cheesy foe of Aquaman was given an interesting makeover in his short lived new series. Instead of an athlete in a silly glider suit, he was a mercenary in a suit of powered armor. This guy has some potential, so I'd like to see him made. There is a good image bellow, and I think he'd look good on a skope of Gren's Beetle. Also, no need to put the lettering on his armor, as my use of him may not include Trident Industries.
http://www.inaneasylum.org/users/bentongrey/Default/flyingfish.jpg
Red Panzer:
Great Nazi villain, this guy can serve as both a Golden and Modern Age villain in my DCU, and that's just too good to pass up. I'm afraid there aren't many good pictures of him. Maybe the Male_SuitV2 mesh?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Panzer
The Awesome Threesome:
Tropedo, Claw, and Magneto (no, not THAT Magneto). That's right, mega obscure Aquaman villains, and all together cool character ideas who were inexplicably never used after their first apperance. These robotic assassins will be serving a very different function in my Aquaman mythos...if I can ever get around to doing it. Claw might be do-able on a Mech-Man mesh, but I'm not sure about the others.

Hey Benton, I was just wondering: as the A1 Aquaman fan on these boards, do you have the following nautical characters...
* Neptune Perkins
* Tsunami
* Sea Wolf
* Shark
* King Shark
* Atlan (well, he was from Atlantis)
* Fisherman
* Neptune Perkins-No
* Tsunami-No (but I'd include the character if it was made, I suppose)
* Sea Wolf-Almost...Unko is working on it.
* Shark-Yes, classic version, available on Alex's FF
* King Shark-I could if I wanted to, there is a man-shark mesh somewhere around...I should probably add him in
* Atlan (well, he was from Atlantis)-Nope, I don't quite know what to do with 'ol Atlan
* Fisherman-Yep, made by a fellow named Hoss20.
Everything I've got is available in the DCUG, and those that are pending will be in the full release.
For those that are interested, I stumbled across a Neptune Perkins skin (and hex) on one of Phantom Stranger's groups. http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/StrangersFFStuff4/ (http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/StrangersFFStuff4/)
Ba-Bump!
Howdy guys, I just want to publicly thank Unko for a really awesome Piscator. He redesigned this loser into a really visually interesting character, and I'll try and do my part on the story and background end. He did Sea Wolf as well, and now the waters are no longer safe! Also, consider this a BUMP!
Back to the front page *BUMP!*
I can probably do a dick grayson. That shouldn't be hard. Just recolour nick.
PS: Thanks for the props.
Awesome, thanks Unko! Yeah, it should be pretty simple. Anyway, no-one ever gets to see half the fantastic stuff you've done for DCUG, and once I release, people might not notice it, so it's only fair to let people know. :)
Hmm, is there a standard (non-animated style) KGBeast around anywhere?
Ba-Bump! I'd really like to see the new Flying Fish and the original Marine Marauder done, if nothing else.

I will need two versions, one with the red accents on the mask, and the panther on the chest, and one without, so that I can have the leader and the rank and file gang members be different.

7. Mr. Element: The first identity of Dr. Alchemy, and a character whom is part of an interesting storyline in the comics. I would really like to touch on it in my own work, although I may never get to it. Still, I think Mr. Element is sorta' cool looking and would be fun to use in the RR.

Aquaman in dragon armor: Cyber Burn's skope just needs a skin! Here are some picks:

The Sea Devils: I'd like this group of pulp adventurers to show up in the occasional Aquaman tale, but to do that, we'd need to have them skinned. All of the male members can be skinned on the PV_Diver hex, but I suppose June will have to be skoped. Actually, Nicky should probably be shrunk just a little as well.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_Devils_(comics)
Alright......this is going to be a very unusual request for me, but I think my reasoning is sound. I just realized that I didn't have all the major Teen Titan villains added in to the DCUG, so I set out to add Shimmer and Jinx. I pulled out the meshes used in the Teen Titans mod, and while they were excellent, I couldn't help but think about how the comic Jinx compared to the version from the Teen Titans show. Now, there isn't much from that show that I enjoy. I've seen a couple of good episodes, but generally their focus on style over substance and use of anime tropes just too be "cool" rub me the wrong way. That being said, I've seen an episode focusing on Jinx that made her a much more interesting character than the comics version, and she already has a fairly appealing character design. So, in short, I'd like to request a skin/skope of the animated version of Jinx (without the animated proportions, of course).

And may heaven help me.
Here's a version of the Flying Fish. Let me know what you think.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/FlyingFish.jpg)
Ahh, that's fantastic! Nice work on the skope for the goggles, by the way. I think if you make the purple parts of his armor less reflective, and bring out the chainmail-y nature of the golden part, he'll be perfect. I like the wings a lot, and I wasn't sure how they'd turn out on that mesh, seeing as it's not an exact fit. I think it's a smashing success though!
Do you want the legs in chainmail? I noticed in the reference picture that they were covered in armor, but I thought it would be more natural to have them in chainmail.
Hmm, you're right, that picture does have his legs in solid armor instead of chainmail, but I think you're instinct is dead on, it would look better if they were chainmail as well.
Here you go, Benton. I toned down the reflection and added chainmail to the legs. Is there a tutorial on chainmail somewhere? I just used crosshatch strokes on the details. Anyway, let me know what you think and Ill get started on the Marine Marauder. Speaking of which, you mentioned you wanted his colors to be red and green, but I noticed in your heromachine mock up instead of red, the color looked more like a purple or dark magenta. Is that the color you want or would you prefer a more traditional red?
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/FlyingFish2.jpg)
Hey, now that looks pretty good. I don't know about a tutorial on chainmail, but TUE or C6 might be able to tell you, as I know they've done chainmail before. However, that crosshatching looks pretty darn good. I think the new Flying Fish is pretty well set. :thumbup: As far as the Marine Marauder, I'm afraid that the colors are a result of the limitation of Heromachine. A regular red will go, but nothing too bright. Definitely try and keep 'special forces' in mind. Plus, don't worry about sticking too close to my own design, feel free to experiment if you want.
Hey Benton,
Here's the Marine Marauder. I used Texas Jack's Punisher_TJ mesh. I didn't know how much of a commando look you were going for, so I left all the guns on his back. Let me know what you think.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/MarineMarauder.jpg)
Hmm.....I like the upper half of him, I think that works pretty well. I especially like the color red you used, it's visually interesting without being too garish. Let's add more red to that design though...maybe a stripe running down his sleeves or something? Also, let's add in the goggles from the original comic appearance, I think those would look pretty cool. I definitely like your choice of mesh, and it will give me tons of options for his powers. As for those pants...hmm...what about something like a dark brown fatigue pants look? With maybe red pipping?
Here you go, Benton. The revamped version of Marine Marauder. Let me know what you think.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/MarineMarauder2.jpg)(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/MarineMarauder2-side.jpg)
Hey! Now THAT looks awesome. Great job Hoss, and those goggles make him look a good deal more professional. He looks like a legitimate threat now.
A new request, as I discovered a cool villain I had overlooked! Plus, I'm going to trim out the fat by deleting the fulfilled requests.
"I'm just keeping this in view, and I've also got another request of sorts. What existing skins/meshes could come somewhat close to the forces of an ancient Mayan god? Haha, I mean, has anyone skoped the cuban villager mesh with guns? Are there any central American native meshes/skins? I'll pretty much take whatever I can get."
Villains I need:
Mister I.Q. and Gang:
This was actually a really great villain of Hawkman's early on who returned several times. I've linked to the only image I can find of him. He's the fellow on that cover with the purple jacket. I'm not quite sure what to skope him from, but probably TV. He'll need a gun of some kind (or maybe a cosmic rod-like weapon), goggles, and something form of boots that could conceivably hold rockets. I'd also like for someone to skin his gang, or rather, just skin him with a blue jacket and maybe black hair, like the guy on the right of the cover.

The Awesome Threesome:
Tropedo, Claw, and Magneto (no, not THAT Magneto). That's right, mega obscure Aquaman villains, and all together cool character ideas who were inexplicably never used after their first apperance. These robotic assassins will be serving a very different function in my Aquaman mythos...if I can ever get around to doing it. Claw might be do-able on a Mech-Man mesh, but I'm not sure about the others.

http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/3011/jlaourworldsatwarpg273ob.jpg
I've always liked Muse's costume... But I really don't have the time for it.
Perhaps this summer, if it doesn't get skinned. I make no promises though! I know I'll just break them. I might be able to do a Barry in a couple weeks, however... That's much easier. Do you have a clothing style in mind?
Here's the Fadeaway Man for you, Benton. I had some trouble with the buttons warping on the tom_versatile mesh, so I switched to the male_basic_cape_fc_gloves mesh and it turned out a little better. I just skoped on the hair, moustache, goatee, and amulet.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/FadeawayMan.jpg)
Excellent Hoss, Those colors really pop, man. Hmm...I don't know if that cape really fits the design though. What about skoping on one of Tommy's bigger, more 'flowy' versions? Would that be possible? Thanks for taking all these requests man, you're really helping me out, and giving life to a lot of characters who would never see the light of day otherwise. :D
Unko! I'm sorry man, I completely ignored your comment! Anyway, I'm going to hold you to your non-promise about Muse. ;) As far as Barry goes, well, Car said he might be interested in doing him along with some other secret identities I had requested, so I'll see if he's started on him yet. If not, then I would definitely welcome your help, my friend.
I agree about the cape, Benton. I was actually thinking the exact same thing when I was skinning him. I'll see what I can do about switching the cape. Also, I started on the Royal Flush Gang and was thinking about putting Ace on the male_rotund2 mesh. Is that appropriate or did you have just a normal mesh in mind? The reason I ask is that I know you wanted mentalist keyframes and I found Tommyboy's headblaster_keyframes. They seem to work real well, except I can't convert them to the male_rotund2 mesh. I've used m25's keyframe transfer program to change both the male_rotund and male_basic keyframes, but the changes don't seem to transfer in Character Tool. I can see the changes when I load them in the transfer program as well as Nifskope. They just don't register in the Character Tool.
Hey Hoss, glad you thought that too. Hmm...I think just a regular guy should be fine. I'm glad you're taking on the Royal Flush guys, they are a good set of villains. :D
Ohh, and just to make sure the list stays in place--

Here's Fadeaway Man with a transplanted cape. I couldn't get the angle right and the cape is shorter than it should be. On the right is the Tom_versatile mesh with the long cape. I think it looks better, but I really hate the way his buttons look on this mesh.

Hey Hoss, glad you thought that too. Hmm...I think just a regular guy should be fine. I'm glad you're taking on the Royal Flush guys, they are a good set of villains. :D
While the RFG wasn't my request (even if I did heartily second it), would it be possible to get flying animations for them (if they're going to be hexes or skopes) to be them riding flying cards, a la Silver Surfer? I know the three "royalty" rode cards, but I'd have to take a quick look to see if Ace & 10 rode their own or not. As an option, if they're all on the cards, they don't all have to stand.....one or two could kneel while they ride, with some hover ranged anims being from a standing position, some from kneeling. Just a thought.
Hmm.......I definitely think you're right, the TV version just looks better, proportions wise. The distortion is troublesome, but I think it's worth it.
While flying on cards would be awesome, I imagine that would be a difficult thing to arrange because of KF issues.
I was thinking about the flying cards also, but I'll admit, I'm only so-so at Nifskoping. Plus, keyframes are a whole other monster I'm not equipped to tackle. If anyone else is interested, let me know and I'll fill you in on what keyframes I'm using.
I'm working on the royal flush gang, I made a card in Gmax and skoped it on to Tommyboys Static shock mesh. I have been having a problem finding a mesh with sleaves built in to the mesh, I tried using Tommyboy's but it did not look right although I may try again. I still have to see if I can make the crown in Gmax as well. Also need to find the right part for the chest piece as well. But I hope to have something in a month or so. So wish me luck :D
Hey, Benton, I've got another one for you. Here's Piranha Man complete with swimmer keyframes.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/PiranhaMan.jpg)
Hey Tap, if you can pull that off, I'll definitely include them. It would be quite awesome to have card-flying RF gangers.
Hoss, great work man! I'm not sure about that loin cloth thing though...(I've only seen that one image of him, so I'm guessing you're more familiar than I am, ha!) Let's lose that, and bring his gold armored leggings up more, like regular pants. Maybe we could put more segments into them as well. Nice job with the 'gold look.' Also, great job on his arm fins, I'm glad you didn't leave those out as they enhance his freakish appearance. Hmm....I think we should also see a few of the ridges he has above his brow, like a series of inverted V's, huh? What do you think? Ohh, and I LOVE that you got him to have swimmer keys...what mesh is that? Is that a VX?
I was originally going to use a VX mesh, but I didn't think there were any swimmer keyframes for them. It's actually a Tom_versatile with the extra muscularity "turned on." Sorry about the loin cloth, but I was looking for other reference pictures and all I came across was the cover from issue #57 and that had the loin cloth. I'll make the changes you requested and repost.
Here he is again, with the changes you requested.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/PiranhaMan2.jpg)
Ahh, fantastic....I love those angry, soulless eyes Hoss. What if that band of gold at the bottom of his stomach is replaced by a belt of somekind? Some kind of mockery of Aquaman's?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman
Maybe in purple, like that loincloth that you had on the first one? What do you think?
What do you think, Benton?
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/PiranhaMan-belt.jpg)
Hey hey hey! I think "perfect!" Great job Hoss, I'm glad to see that guy finished, and I love your choice of mesh.
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/riddlemethismeshes1/files/
Since I would love to have an RFG as well, can I suggest someone make them out of Hi Jack (RFG Jack gone solo, from SSOSV)? He has the card, the crown, the gun, etc. -- probably would serve well for King and Jack at a minimum. I put him up in my group as it says it's from Alex's but the only version I saw there was a non-carded one in KennX's section; this one is by Crusader from 2004.
My request: if you use this as a base, could you please make them available BEFORE conversion? I only play FF1 at this point. Thanks.
(http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa49/Cyber_Burn_33/Anti-MatterIvodroid.jpg)
This is the skope of FLASH_22798's Anti - Matter Ivodroid (Amazo). Re - skoped to a tv- fingers mesh and converted to FFvt3R. Since i can't skin very well, iff anyone is interested in skinning this. Please let me know, and I'd be happy to send this out. Thanks.
I've got plenty of time on my hands and wouldn't mind taking a crack at skinning him. Are there any reference pictures or is this an original interpretation of the character (forgive me, as I'm not as familiar with DC as I am with Marvel). That's a nice looking skope by the way. I realize I'm not the best skinner here, but I wouldn't mind taking on this guy.
From what Flash told me way back when, the Ivodroid is an original character based on on his other CSA/Anti-matter skopes. Amazo, however, the character that the Ivodroid is the Anti - matter counter part to, is an actual DC character. I'm not sure what Flash completely had in mind as far as skin design when he originally skoped this guy, but the pattern that I have noticed with him is the the colors are consistant with the base character. If you send me a pm with your e-mail, I'll send this your way sometime this week.
RMT: I think that's an excellent idea, for what it's worth, but you should probably send TAP a PM, because I don't know how often he checks this thread. That would be great, we could be a big step closer to a flying RFG!
CB: Man! I love that Ivodroid, the wings are a really nice touch. I like how it integrates bits of the other CSA characters.
Hoss, as for the Ivodroid, well, as CB noted, he is based on Amazo. Here are some resources to help you if you want to take him on:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_Syndicate (I imagine he'd have elements of these guys)
And here is the fella he is the opposite number to:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazo
Consider it done. Cuz it is... ^_^
Well, here's the Anti-matter Ivodroid. First, I went with an Amazo version in green, then I went with an anti-Amazo in red(green's complementary color), then I just went with a version that had some components of the CSA. I'm open to suggestions.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Ivodroid-green.jpg)(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Ivodroid-red.jpg)(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Ivodroid-combo.jpg)
Hmm....I think that the red one is my favorite, but I would like to hear what others think. I like the reflection it gives of Amazo's color scheme. I have to say Hoss, I think these are the best skins I've seen from you yet. They are all fantastic! ^_^
Looking at all the Ivo-Droids feels a bit like they're all on offer at a new-car lot. "I like the blue, honey, what do you think?"
I am really impressed with all three. Personnally I could see this as going with a random skin setting. Great job hoss. If your interested in another character, check this thread:
http://freedomreborn.net/archive/index.php?topic=42163.90
and let me know if you're interested in skinning The Nucleus.
I'm glad you like the skins, guys. If you like all three, Cyber Burn, then I'll send them all to you. I'd love to tackle "The Nucleus" and am flattered that you would ask me to give him a try. Send him my way and I'll see what I can come up with.
Thanks hoss. I'll send Nucleus your way this weekend.
I was looking at Catalyst, I was thinking about skoping him, but I'm not sure where to pull the head from, any suggestions?
(http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa49/Cyber_Burn_33/VillainCatalyst.jpg)
I had to take a little bit of creative license with Catalyst, but I think I pretty much hit the main points. I ended up taking the helmet from Valandar's EldarGuardian mesh. If anyone wants to skin this, let me know, and I'll send it out.
Haha! CB, I've been wracking my brain trying to come up with a helmet that looked right for him, but I had drawn a blank. That's absolutely perfect though. I mean, it may not match the picture exactly, but it has the same feel, and it looks great! You nailed him! ^_^
I'll skin him if no one has any objections. I was going to skope him as well, but couldn't find the right helmet, either. Nice job, Cyber Burn.
Glad you guys like him. I'll send him your way hoss.
Well, here's the Anti-Matter CSA Nucleus. I tried just a regular inverse Atom, then went with a true opposite. You know I didn't think I'd like the orange and green together, but the more I look at it, the more I like it. What do you guys think? What would you like different?
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Nucleus.jpg)(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Nucleus-opposite.jpg)
I think I like the inverted blue and red best, it makes him more immediately recognizable as an analogue of the Atom.
I agree with Benton.

Aquaman in dragon armor: Cyber Burn's skope just needs a skin! Here are some picks:

I guess those bumps were intended for me. :P I'm sorry Catalyst took so long. I've been spending my Freedom Force time updating my hero files and running tournaments. So, here he is. I used the colors that were in the reference pic, but I wonder if the colors should be a little richer. Let me know guys.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Catalyst2.jpg)
Nice one, I've always wanted that Catalyst ... i think he is bit redder though.
I went ahead and deepened the red and I think it looks better. By the way, for those checking this out: Cyber Burn did the skope, I only did the skin.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Catalyst3.jpg)
Ahh, very nice Hoss...I think your instincts were definitely right, the red looks much better in that richer tone. I'd say it might be good to deepen the blue a bit too, but not too much, as I like the lighter color. It's a little unusual. Fantastic work man!
Regarding the Royal Flush Gang, there's skins and meshes for Ace, Ten, and Jack floating around the Net, but I've never seen King or Queen. This part really does make me feel like a 10-year-old with his action figures -- I need the set! They're only good in a set!
hoss, if you still have that first version of catalyst, i would love to have it. i think the colors blend really well on that one.
also, the bumps were just to keep the thread on the front page, so please don't feel as though they were intended for you, i know there is more to life than freedom force. :D
if you're interested hoss, i have a skope for an anti - matter star saphire that needs a skin, let me know.
benton, i have a skope for usil the bowman, he's a member of axis amerika, an all star squadron villain, that i finally got around to converting. it still needs a skin, but if you want the character, let me know.
What do you think, Benton? I changed the blue a little bit.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Catalyst4.jpg)
Cyber Burn, I'll send the original Catalyst your way. Don't worry, I didn't take the bumps personally. I figured it was good natured, anyway. Also, I'd be interested in your anti-matter Star Sapphire.
Here's the Anti-Matter Star Sapphire. Since real star stapphires can be a wide variety of colors, I went with blue since they're some of the most valuable. I cranked it out kind of quick, so that might show in the skin. I hope not.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Anti-MatterStarSapphire.jpg)
I like the blue, it differentiates from the comic version much better than a purple variant would have. That works for me.
As for the update on Catalyst, the new blue works really well. Good work.
I'll be taking a week off from FR due to midterms and term papers, but after that, I'll re-skope the Anti - Matter Solomon Grundy I have, since I really don't like the one I have now.
Otherwise, any suggestions for what pieces to use for muse. I was going to use a TV_lite as a base, but the collar and the belt are the biggest problems I think. Though, it won't offend me if someone beats me to it.
(http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/8066/monarchrr9.th.jpg) (http://img170.imageshack.us/my.php?image=monarchrr9.jpg)
i'm hoping that this is alright to put my request here. i have not yet seen a character for monarch and had been hoping that someone would be kind enough to make one for :ffvstr:. thank you.
:cool: I second this request.
I wouldn't mind seeing Monarch either. If someone were to skope they would probably want to start with Tommyboy's Anti - Monitor mesh. But other than that, I'm not sure where to go from there. Maybe Wildfire's helmet? Not sure about the belt though. If no one else takes this up, then I'll take a look at this after I finish my next paper.
that would be very nice of you cyber burn, thank you. :thumbup:
Hey guys, I'm still crazy busy, but I wanted to drop in here and recognize the great work Hoss has been doing. That revised Catalyst is absolutely perfect, and let me commend you again on your innovative skoping work. I also really like your alternate StarSapphire, and I agree with CB's assessment, the blue differentiates her nicely, and adds a slight heroic tone to her look. Very nicely done!
After seeing the colored version of the Star Saphire skope, I realize that I am going to have to re - skope it. There are clipping issues on the leg cuffs. And I agree with Benton, hoss has been doing a great job with his skinning.
Thanks, guys. That really means a lot to me. I'm just glad I can give something back to the community. Benton, I'll send Catalyst your way. I'm glad you like him and I agree that Cyber Burn did a great skope.
Hoss, I agree with Benton Grey and Cyber Burn, you are a very fine artist, and doing a good job on these characters. I look forward to being able to download them.
I do have a question though. I am not understanding the Anti - Matter Characters and where they are coming from. Though I am familiar with the Crime Syndicate from DC, I am unfamiliar with these other characters. Can you please help?
Sure, read THIS thread, and all will be revealed. ^_^
http://freedomreborn.net/archive/index.php?topic=42163.0
Thank you Benton Grey. I much look forward to being able to play as these characters.
I'd like to throw an official request into the (more visible) thread. Pre-Crisis Teen Titan Kole.
http://www.titanstower.com/source/whoswho/kole.html (http://www.titanstower.com/source/whoswho/kole.html)
OK, Benton, I know you've been waiting a while for these guys. I took so long to do them because they have unique body styles that couldn't quite be captured by current meshes (that I know of, anyway). So, here's the Awesome Threesome! I took your advice on Claw to use the Mech-Man mesh and I went ahead and used the Transformers_versatile for Magneto, mainly for the head thingy and the fact that he has no hands. Let me know if you like them or if you have any other ideas for them.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Claw.jpg)(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Magneto.jpg)(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/hoss20/Torpedo.jpg)
Hey, those are excellent Hoss! I especially like Claw, although I can't put my finger on why exactly. Very nice work in finding suitable meshes for his cohorts. I would have never thought about going to TF versatile for Magneto, and I have to say that Torpedo is just about perfect. I think Magneto may need a little something more, because he looks a little bland in the company of his teammates (which is a matter of the design and not your work for certain!). Maybe if we incorporate the glowing eyes from this cover, he'll have a bit more 'pop?'
http://www.comictreadmill.com/CTMBlogarchives/2006/2006_Individual/2006_04/001081.php
That, and maybe darken the inside of his "hood" to make it seem more shadowed.......otherwise, these guys are just plain excellent! Thanks so much for taking them on Hoss, you know I've been wanting them for a long time! Ha, when you didn't answer my email, I figured that you weren't interested, but I'm glad to see that you were just working hard on these three. :D
I darkened the cowl and added some glowing eyes. It definitely helps. I'll send them your way. I'm really glad you like them.
Hey, definitely! Ha, I can't wait to set these guys up. They've got some neat powers that should make them really interesting villains. It'll be fun to put Aquaman up against them!
A little more bumpification
Just a note, one of our talented members has very kindly shared his excellent Royal Flush Gang skins/skopes, so I'm taking that off my list. I haven't mentioned his name because he contacted me via email instead of the forum, but I'll be happy to acknowledge him if he says it is kosher.
"I'm just keeping this in view, and I've also got another request of sorts. What existing skins/meshes could come somewhat close to the forces of an ancient Mayan god? Haha, I mean, has anyone skoped the cuban villager mesh with guns? Are there any central American native meshes/skins? I'll pretty much take whatever I can get."
Villains I need:
Mister I.Q. and Gang:
This was actually a really great villain of Hawkman's early on who returned several times. I've linked to the only image I can find of him. He's the fellow on that cover with the purple jacket. I'm not quite sure what to skope him from, but probably TV. He'll need a gun of some kind (or maybe a cosmic rod-like weapon), goggles, and some form of boots that could conceivably hold rockets. I'd also like for someone to skin his gang, or rather, just skin him with a blue jacket and maybe black hair, like the guy on the right of the cover.

Claw might be do-able on a Mech-Man mesh, but I'm not sure about the others.

Email was just easier at the time, Benton. When I come here, I feel compelled to grab all the shiny new objects, which takes my eye off the mod ball. ^_^ I blame Da Glob and his propensity to make stuff I didn't know I couldn't live without...
I just hope the RFG convert. IMO, King Queen and Jack could use better skins (i.e., skins from someone more talented than me), although the placeholders are better than nothing. One of them (Queen I think) has some clipping in her fly animation but hopefully it's not too noticeable. The biped is one of Texas Jack's old ones, Jack-O-Lantern, I think.
But these were made from Hi Jack so they do have the card riding which should look pretty cool when they're all 5 flying the skies together.
OK -- there's been some wonderful work going on in this thread, but I've gotta ask one question:
Is that Fadeaway Man or Catalyst anywhere? Or if I download the mod, will they be in there now? (I downloaded the original release.)
I don't know what the protocol is for the planned updates, and there are so many posts in this thread, I honestly don't know if the mod itself has been updated.
Well, those skins looked pretty solid to me RMT. ;) It is possible that they won't convert, but now that we've discovered the fix for that issue, I may be able to convert them anyway. Ha, I'm definitely looking forward to them flying through the skies after my JLA!
ESF, I do not know if they are available, but their creator would likely be willing to share them with you if asked. They WILL be in my final DCUG release, but no, I have not updated the mod yet. I'm working hard to finish the campaigns now.
Thanks for the response, Benton -- I can certainly wait.
In case I haven't said it before: Your work in creating/coordinating this thing with all of the people who have created items for it is amazing. Just tremendous work, all the way around.
Thanks ESF, that is very kind of you to say, and you're right, the artists of FR have done an incredible job producing DC stuff for this mod! My part has been small enough, but the fact that people are looking forward to my little project makes me very happy.
Just a word to the wise, I still have quite a lot of work to do, but I'm hoping Goggles very awesome EZScript Assistant will help me speed things up.
Oh, and since KS is back, promising to upload his Matter Master skope and skin, that leaves only Muse and Mister I.Q. and gang left of my massive villains request!
Yes it is true I am back. I am working on a Matter Master for Benton G. I am still hoping for help to be able to make him fly on a rock. I am close but need help figuring how to add a cape to the hex I am using. Any way Muse I think would be pretty easy and I will give him and IQ a go. But if someone else chimes in before I get to them I won't be at all offended. Anyway the Matter Master skin is done. All I need is a good hex.
I am absolutely certain that one of our talented skopers can probably add some parts from the Terra mesh to Matter Master. It may be worth posting in the hexing section if no one here notices.
Awesome, KS comes back and almost all of my wishlist gets fulfilled! I suppose Christmas is coming early for me! ^_^
Well my friend I don't know if it's X-mas. But I am glad to help. I have a PM into the original hexer about my problem with the cape. So keep your fingures crossed. I am going to try Muse on Solid_Snake and IQ on Tommy's MR Miracle.
Hey Bent,
Here is what I came up with for the Muse. Couldn't come up with the ammo packs around the boot tops. Nothing seemed to fit right. Couldn't come up with the right type of belt buckle. I also didn't include a bullet harness. But if you know of meshes that might have pieces that would work. I'd be glad to add them. Anyway here is a look at what I have. Let me know if you want more added.
(http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c10/kssaints/Muse.jpg)
Muse looks awesome KS! I love the face, great work there. I wouldn't worry about the ammo belt, it's a pretty minor thing, and his look totally works without it. Great work my friend!
Blue Beetle Vol.2 #5 was one of the first comics I ever read when I was around 5 years old. I've gotto get that Muse!
I really liked how Muse turned out. Great job, ks. Any chance of taking on the Aquaman skope?
Well I am flattered by the response to Muse. I also must say there would be a good chance of me tackling the Aquaman armour hex.
Bumpity-bump-bump! I just want to keep this in sight!

kssaints, would you mind sending me that muse? jollyolly at hotmail dot com?
The gloves look perfect for Mister IQ. I think I'd have to base it on tommyboy's Mr. Miracle, as I can't think of what other mesh would fly standing up. ...yes, this means I am going to try skinning it. I won't even change the design too much, although for Mr. IQ himself I will add a bit of scarf maybe.
Woo-hoo! Hoss, where'd that come from! Haha, I'll tell you what, that totally made my day. I thought no one was going to have any interest in helping me out with that little request, and then I come home from work, and bam, there is this beautiful skin. Thanks man, that is totally awesome, and I love the face paint and the design on his chest. Thanks again man!
Unko, can it be? Haha, I can't wait to see what you come up with, bro!
I thought I'd do a little something for you since kssaints is back and tackling the rest of your requests. I'm glad you like him. That makes my day. If you need anything else; just ask.
Thanks Hoss! I'm sure that I'll other little niche requests as my stories progress, so I definitely appreciate the help, man!
Bumpity!
Also, I've been working on the Awesome Threesome lately, and I'm having trouble with Klaw. The Mech Man's animations are just too limited for him to have the speed and variety he needs to go toe to toe with the Sea King. Would anyone be willing to skope up a new mesh for him? His character design could stand some updating, so I wouldn't mind some creativity in the undertaking if anyone is willing. He's the purple one...with claws.....I hope Hoss20 will be gracious enough to transfer his skin to a new mesh if one is provided. ^_^

Hey TUE, there are a couple skins already on TM hexes, but if you're looking for something else (to capture the little shoulder ridges and gloves) a TV skope would cover all your bases.

Hey Benton, check out the skope thread in the hexing forum, it looks like there's a cuban w/gun that may fit what you want.

Well Bent my friend I never remembered to release that Eel skin. I will get it ready to go out and throw Muse in to boot. Also I have Mr. IQ and some various gang members pretty close to finished as well. I just need to scope on some jet shoes then they'll be done as well. I have yet to answer my problem with Matter Master. But I hope to figure it out before too long. I have been buisy with the real life stuff. But will try and get some stuff out pretty soon.
Well, that explains why I couldn't find it! Haha, well, I'm looking forward to getting he and Muse. Unkoman took on Mr. IQ and his gang, but if yours are so close to finished, I would certainly like to see them. I can always use more gang members, right? :D Hmm....I'm going to search for your post about Matter Master and bump it. Hopefully we can get some help! Don't worry man, I'm still working on my missions, so I'm not in any hurry. I know you and the wife have plenty of real life stuff to keep you busy. I just hope everything is going well.
:EDIT: Hmm...I found your thread in the hex forum, but I'm not sure what your problem with the mesh is KS.
A new and quick request as I begin work on the final JLA mission: can anyone think of a monstery mesh and skin that can act as the "supreme intelligence" of the white martians? Here is what the "Imperium" looked like in JLU, but I'll take anything alien and non-humanoid looking:
http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/dcanimated/images/thumb/4/41/Imperium.jpg/300px-Imperium.jpg
It will pretty much only need to show up in a cutscene, so kfs aren't particularly important.
Valander's Eyebeast... unless he did a Quitasson, in which case, use that.
Hmm, the eyebeast is a good possibility...too bad Val didn't do a Quintesson, although I remember him previewing one once....Any other suggestions?

I did indeed do a Quintesson, but it never got finished - I never managed to get the animations complete on it before my old comp died... and my new comp won't run 3DS max r5 for some reason.
(http://valandar3d.fools3d.com/quinttest02.jpg)
If anyone feels up to trying to finish it for me, send me a PM. Keep in mind it has no animations that I remember.
Cool, I KNEW I had seen that before. That's a shame about your computer Val. Hopefully someone will finish this guy off. For the Martian Imperium he's not a good fit though, now that I see him. It's just too distinctive. The eyebeast seems to be my best bet.
Unko surprised me with a skin for the Imperium which he claims is just a 'placeholder,' but I am quite excited to have it!
I also have one more new request, which should be a very simple matter. I feel like I need to post it now before I forget about it, then come looking for it in a month. For my Aquaman campaign (which I hope to start relatively soon) I need Navy personnel. Many moons ago Bearded released a very fine sailor mesh, and I was wondering if someone might work a little nifskope magic and give him the rifle and animations of the soldier mesh.

Villains I need:
Mister I.Q. and Gang:
This was actually a really great villain of Hawkman's early on who returned several times. I've linked to the only image I can find of him. He's the fellow on that cover with the purple jacket. I'm not quite sure what to skope him from, but probably TV. He'll need a gun of some kind (or maybe a cosmic rod-like weapon), goggles, and some form of boots that could conceivably hold rockets. I'd also like for someone to skin his gang, or rather, just skin him with a blue jacket and maybe black hair, like the guy on the right of the cover.

Although these guys have been done very well, I find myself dissatisfied with the character designs (certainly not the skins and skopes themselves), and I would like to see someone take a stab at redesigning Claw in a sleeker, more hi-tech look. That's right, mega obscure Aquaman villains, and all together cool character ideas who were inexplicably never used after their first apperance. These robotic assassins will be serving a very different function in my Aquaman mythos...if I can ever get around to doing it.

Ka-Bump!
I'm sensing a pattern here....BUMP!
Alright, I've actually got something new to add here! The creation of an excellent skope for Volstagg made me think of a character that I hadn't considered, and wonder upon wonders, I also came to a point in my JLA base screens where it would be helpful to have him. I am hoping someone might be willing to skope a swimming-key-capable Lord Vulko for me:
http://www.comicvine.com/vulko/29-3754/
He is Aquaman's confidant and advisor, and often his regent. I could really use him to give Aquaman someone to play off of in a cutscene, other than just a faceless guard.
So...........bump?
Sooooo...........necro-bump! Also, since I've made my decision about what the final campaign for DCUG will be (been too busy with the start of the semester to do too much work on it, though), I have found myself in need of a skin or mesh to fit a character integral to the said campaign. I'm not saying what that campaign will be...I think it will be more fun if it is a surprise, but this character may give it away to those of you with encyclopedic comic knowledge. I don't think I'm going to need a skin made, or anything.
http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel_dc/images/thumb/e/e1/Byth_01.jpg/200px-Byth_01.jpg
His name is Byth, and I certainly don't need a pants-less version just like this, but I would like something bald and semi-futuristic/alien. Any suggestions about what originals or other characters might fit this bill?
Do you need that skin right away?
If you can stand to get it in maybe a couple months from now... THEN I AM DOING IT. It's just so friggin' ridiculous looking. I love it.
Haha, sorry Unko, but I'm afraid I'll need him pretty soon here. Ha, also, that Who's Who page entry is, like I said, a little too pants-less for me. ;) Thanks for the offer, though!
:EDIT: Well...I have a possibility. I went to my old standby for whenever I need a mesh or skin for a minor character. I checked Tommyboy's Marvel section, and I think I have something that will work. The Red Ghost, with his hair hexed off, looks sufficiently bald, and futuristic. If anyone is just dying to do a skin, then I'll happily accept, but otherwise, I think the standard skin looks just fine.
Oh, alright. You win, this time. I'll let his pantsless glory fade from my mind for now.
I noticed you have the Royal Flush Gang crossed off on your list...
Please to elaborate? ;)
Haha, okay Unko. ^_^ LP, RMT was kind enough to do the Royal Flush Gang for me.

Hey, that's great. Is it the comic book version or more from the animated series?
It was the comic versions, although they are set up in the DCUG as something of a synthesis of several versions.

I guess I didn't. They would have been at
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/riddlemethismeshes1
but all I see is HiJack (the SSOSV version of Jack that I used to start the RFG). I will try to post them tomorrow. I just got off a 12 hour flight, so I'm a bit knackered.
They will be FF1 only as I abhor :ffvstr: . If someone needs FF2 versions, I believe I was able to get Benton converted ones for use in his mod, so you can get them when the next version of it comes out.
The costume look was taken from Who's Who, modified to accommodate by poor skinning.
OK, they're posted.
Sorry PG, I didn't mean to ignore your post, I just got busy. If you still need those guys for FF2 let me know, and I'll try and find some time to package them up. Also, I'm still in need of a Vulko at some point in time.

Hey Bent, I seem to have lost my Eel hex somewhere. But it shouldn't take much to throw one together. Do you want a swimming version, a land version, or both? As far as Matter Master goes I have a skin and a hex. But I am trying to make it to where he travels atop a flying rock. So if you need him soon I can forgo my strugles with the flying rock part.
Hey man! Yeah, a swimming and land version of the Eel would be for the best. As long as you use a male_basic base, he should be compatible with both. Ohh man...I would really love to see Matter Master flying on his rock, and we've still got some time, so don't let me interrupt your work. ^_^
*cough*bump*cough*
Not just a bump, but a legitimate addendum as well! I have been doing a little house cleaning in my severely limited free time of late, fixing bugs, testing characters, finding portraits, etc., and I have come across something for which I need help. I eventually would like to have every character in the DCUG sport a portrait from the comics. This isn't always possible, but I have already made vast progress. I have come up against a wall, though. The henchmen of The Key, the Keymen, are a cipher that I can't find online. I know someone here on the boards has the JLA issue they show up in as it was posted on the boards before they went kaput, so if a scan could be arranged, I could get the portrait.
Have you checked SHJ's portrait packs/site?
click here...and the aquaman gets it...! (http://www.geocities.com/ff_portraits01/galleries.html)

Are you referring to the scans I made to his last JLA appearance in his classic form, where Z cures him of his strange dwarfism, sacrificing the bulk of her magic powers? I was pretty sure that post was in this thread, and KSSaints used it as somewhat of a base for the skins he made of them. I'd dig up the particular image, but haven't replaced the computer yet, and didn't have a backup of all of the file paths of everything I've sent to imageshack. I *do* have the scans backed up, though, in case you have difficulty finding something workable, but I recall there not being much to work with in those scans (or that issue in general).
edit: in fact, check page two of this thread. ^_^
D'oh! Thanks PG, I thought for sure that it had gotten lost.
i did a vulko. i made him from male basic, a little shorter, and rounder, but not as round as male rotund. all the hair, and the manowar keyframes. i'll upload him very soon. no skin for him yet.
Bearded, that comes out of nowhere! Ha, thanks man! I've just checked the mesh out, and it is picture perfect. You got it exactly right, down to the beard and the spare tire. Fantastic work!
thank you, it was fun. only took a couple of hours. his facial hair is actually from spiral's leggings, which i think came from black cat's leggings. it's only a small piece of it, i don't think ink will mind. he gave me permission to use spiral as i needed. and he's got some good hair in it.
the spare tire was a max tool called spherify! i rounded him out. i also increased the left and right chest, arms and legs. then i made him a little shorter. let me know if you want me to make him taller again, it just seemed he would be shorter than arthur. then i imported manowar keyframes.
i did not include the shoulder brace, it would be hard to animate around the shoulders. i tried making it smaller around the neck, but ended up looking like a neck brace, so i left it off.
hope to see him in a mod! and i wonder...for :ffvstr: could the facial hair be skoped onto a head nif? i can only make heads for :ff: .
that reminds me, i made it for :ff: , so you might need to convert it.
Cool! I wouldn't worry about the brace, most of what I've seen him from is the old comics, and he looks spot on for them. I can definitely convert him!
Might I volunteer for the skin?
Yes sir, you might. :D
Well here he is. Hope he looks OK. I will release him soon with a few other new skins and scopes.

couldn't you take the sailor and give him the weaponmaster/bearere ffx attribute?
also, do you want a new mantis mesh, maybe on male heavy with smaller head peice?
That's fantastic work KS! I see that you haven't lost your skills in your sojourn from the boards. Really nice work on his beard, there. Perfect, my friend, absolutely perfect! Now Aquaman has someone to talk to!
Bearded, I suppose I could, but I foresee lots of sailors showing up in my Aquaman campaign (when I get around to it), and it would be great for them to have right kfs for gunplay and everything. As far as Mantis, well KS did an excellent skin (and maybe skope as well) that I am pretty well pleased with. Check your PMs!
Heh... Guess I didn't really need to do that skin after all. Mine's up at bearded's site (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/beardedinlair/files/).
Available in blue AND pink.
Man! I've got an embarrassment of riches! I'll have to get all three skins and use the 'random' option.
Hey Bent I uploaded the Vulko skin to my 10th Yahoo group for you. Hope you like.
Thanks KS, it's awesome! :D

How modern are you looking for? Tommyboy has a Red Tornado mesh that does have the cyclone below the waist for all of the flying & hovering anims.
if he has the voretx, i dont mind the skin, i was just trying to be specific... ill take a classic one, i dont mind...

Actually, I don't think so. That was one of Vert's last few meshes that were released during a NPI down period. Avalon hosted them and a quick search on FR brings you to this: click (http://freedomreborn.net/archive/index.php?topic=42835.msg594441#msg594441)
i must have made a mess of the search... my bad, and many thanks...
edit: links are broken... this game is tormenting me, i swear... thanks anyways, much appreciated...
Prev gave the correct link (http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/vertexmeshes/), and checking it again, it does work. It was my mistake in sending you to NPI and by not remembering that the group wasn't started by Vertex. You can also get the (vx_Dr_Fate_Classic) mesh from Benton's DCUG.
no, sorry, my bad...
i meant that the group itself was fine, but when i'd try to dl the zip file, it won't dl, i get a message from yahoo saying:
oh. its working now... :huh:
