Hi there, o Evil 1:

I don't have any parts ideas, but as far as kfs go, I've found if you skope the female mesh onto the male mesh (say Scorpion) the kfs work.  However, be prepared as the mesh gets pretty distorted.  <_< 
Of course, if you are using Max files and such there may be another option.  That however is beyond my ability to understand.  :rolleyes:

If I spot any parts, I will let you know.

Yes my idea is catching on....:D

no idea on the KFs, UE. As for parts which ones do you need exactly? I don't have the Scorpia mesh on hand. I'll start it from scratch:

Helmet: I doubt you can get this exact, you might have to skin most of it. Might be able to resize and reposition some pointy ear pieces to recreate those side pieces, and a circular object might be usable for the top part of the helmet, maybe a goggle part.

Shoulder pads: The tfv definitly has something like that, I might suggest the Wasp shoulder pads.

gloves and boots, you should be able to get something close from the tfv, probably something like the yellowjacket boots and gloves.

heels: start with a base mesh that has heels, possibly the tf_fingers or one of the vx meshes.

collar: could be skinned on but you should be able to find something very similar especially if you resize. I'd suggest looking at the female versaitile mesh by Irrational, it has a similar collar.

Tail: This could be tricky due to kfs but it should be possible, you need to take a tail from another mesh, probably one of Tommy's. I'd check the Scorpion mesh first.

claws: are the hands supposed to be clawed? if so Tommy or Vertex have you covered.

I'm not sure what exactly that waist circle is but it should be easy to find or just skin on.

Hopefully that helped. Some of this might be complicated and you might have to get help from more experienced skopers.

Maybe that Wasp hair from tommyboy would work as the pointy /cone part of her helmet?  You can angle it back some?

Depending on how many bones the Scorpia mesh has in it's tail, you could always move it to tommyboy's scorpion mesh for the keyframes.

the scorpia meshs tail is one solid piece i think, it was made quite early in community's life, thanks for the tips guys

I don't know if this is on tommboy's TFV mesh but on thwe male tv mesh there is a piece called something like helm-giantman for Giant-Man (Pym) in his second costme pitured in the link:

It seems to have the shape you want, but You will have to resize it.  Because it uses the tom_extras tga, it should be fairly simple to skin the rest of the helmet as hair (if it is hair - its hard to tell from images). Maybe add an enlarged head gem (also from tommyboy's tv mesh) to really get the shape of the helmet's crest right.

I'd go with the larger cham_ear pieces from the tv mesh to get the pointy parts.


Then again, my solution might be too complicated....

the_ultimate_evil

hmm it may work


another option is i get max and learn to mesh, nah not gonna happen lol

the_ultimate_evil
