It's true, UDCU (http://freedomreborn.net/forums/index.php?topic=48910.0/) needs you!
But why you say? :huh:
It's simple. Its original creator(moi) no longer has the juice to redesign costumes and I need some assistance. I'm pretty much looking for anyone that would like to do some costume designing via any method. Micros, sketches, character designers(i.e. CoH character creator) etc. I'd still do the skinning for the sake of consistency.
I would appreciate any help at all. This is a project I've really been wanting to finish but I seem to always get up in work or other art projects which usually use up my creativity.
What characters did you have in mind? I'd be interested in seeing what I can come up with.
As would i. I only need to know what characters you have in mind and i will start some designs.
alrighty, cool. i'll shoot you two a PM later tonight :)
Oooh I got an idea! For Atom do a guy who wears a full blue suit with red letters that say 'Atom' on his chest.
Yeah not even remotely serious about that. If I come up something I'll send it your way.

And What about legion of superheroes?... if smallville has its own, why not udcu? (i'm trying to desing some costume, when i get them i'll send you ^.~
have you seen cassanova's ult sketches?
http://freedomreborn.net/archive/index.php?topic=41832.120 (http://freedomreborn.net/archive/index.php?topic=41832.120)
I actually don't have any plans for legion. I wanted to strongly mimic Millar's Ultimates so I put some basic guidelines down for myself:
1. no time travel
2. no magic
3. no mythological creatures
With that said, Legion doesn't really fit. But you know, you could design some other costumes if you wanted :D

have you seen cassanova's ult sketches?
Ya, I did. Unfortunately I don't have any immediate plans for any of those characters atm. Otherwise, I'd be all over those. ;)
I've thought on changing a little bit (a lot) the history... All the powers taken by Justice Leage were taken by a genetic-altering drug injected by a tatoo in theirs skins; tis original group were yonkies with "fantastic ideas" tanken by someone from the streets and used as "rabbits" in the lab.
Now they are punks, dangerous and addicts; they don't wanna work with anybodies 'cause nobody understand them but they need money to survive so they usually works together in front or over the justice.
I still don't know if you like the idea, i thought like you (I'm a MArvel Ult fan) and i wanted to do it without extraterrestrial powers or something like these.
That's actually a pretty good idea and I can see it fitting right in. Reminds me a lot of DV8 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DV8/) which was a very cool series. Could just simplify their origins by making them Meta-Human Gene positive. Pretty much my direct rip-off of Marvel's mutant x-gene.:D tee-hee
I don't think the Justice League would have any affiliation with a group like Legion for the sake of their public image. But my universe does contain many shady corporations and organizations with deep pockets that could find uses for a super powered group of selfish "punks."
Right now I'm trying to finish my initial plans and get the web page set-up properly, but I definitely want to include your idea once I start expanding. We'll talk more. ;)
alright. Your three rules kinda set me back, but i think i know where to start. I'll let you know when i have anything to present.
EDIT: Also, how would you feel about a Green Lantern (and which one) or is he in the JSA?
Murs if you want to give me your messenger/skype i can show you the initial sketches i have done (Saturn girl and Lighting Mad). If not, in the moment i've scanned them i'll publish here.
I know the history shoud have a better drawback but... i don't feel confident talking in english, so i prefer you to complete the story.

His alter-ego, captain Nathaniel Adam.
(http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/1796/ultimatenathanieladam.jpg)
Bio:
My version of Captain Atom is US solider, captain Nathaniel Adam, who fought in the Iraq, during Operation Desert Storm. Aside from being skilled soldier and expert marksman he was also a metahuman with power to absorb energy, and redirect it in form of quite powerful blasts from his hands. During routine patrol he, and the other soldiers found Iraqis trying to smuggle something, to the secret bunker. In the resulting fight stray bullets pierces mysterious package, revealing, that it was small nuclear bomb. Everyone, besides captain Adam died. But that doesn't means, that nothing happened to him. His body absorbed most of the radiation enhancing his powers, and mutating his body. He gained superhuman strength, endurance, healing factor, and the ability to fly. He also gained power to generate, and manipulate nuclear energy. But there where some side-effects: His skin became chalk-white, and his eyes became red, and glowing. Convinced, that his new powers where gift of God Adam deserted from the army, and became brutal vigilante called Captain Atom serving "judgement" to the enemies of America.
Corny? Yes, but frankly I've seen worse (Read Loeb...).

That first Captain Atom is really cool :cool:
some more good ones GH ^_^
QuoteThat first Captain Atom is really cool cool
I'm glad you liked him. Second design is supposed to be something like "origin" of the character, his look, before he became Captain Atom. If only someone talented would create mesh/skin based on my idea...
If we're talking about designs: I'm still amazed by your Superman design, and his history. You made completely different Superman, who at the same time has the "fell" of original Kal-El. When i thought about "ultimizing" the Big Blue Boy Scout my version looked like Salden from "Just Imagine Stan Lee with John Buscema Creating Superman". This version was a member of the Kryptonian Police Force named Salden, who accidentally lands on Earth during the chase after criminal called Gorrok, and discovers that our planet's environment gives him super strength, speed, and enhanced senses. But the most interesting thing about this character is his personality: His not fighting crime to help people, but rather to help them focus on development of space travel so that he can go home. Overall his not nice guy...
Here is his design. Well, he certainly isn't friendly...

(http://a.imageshack.us/img708/680/ultimatewarriorv2.jpg)
Warrior/Guy Gardner
Shortly after Captain Atom goes rogue US government sends special military unit with the task of capturing him, for the metahuman research. One of the group members was sergeant Guy Gardner, volunteer for the top-secret super-soldier project, witch gave him superhuman durability, enhanced reflex, and some degree of healing factor. During the mission Gardner's team is brutally killed by their target, with him being only survivor. Disfigured, crippled, and powerless soldier vows revenge to Captain Atom. With the aid of scientists he is transformed into highly advanced battle cyborg, designed for the sole task of killing superhumans. Sergeant Guy Gardner died, but a unbeatable, tireless Warrior is made in his place...
Edit: Upgraded version.
Well, new version of Heromachine is still unfinished, but already very inspiring... I just can't stop trying new character designs... So here's the new one:
(http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/7159/ultimateblackadam.jpg)
Black AdamMany mysteries, and uncertainties surrounds the mysterious person wearing black armor. Nobody knows his identity, his goals, and even limits of his powers. He was seen fighting super-criminals, alongside other heroes, but at the other times he was battling superheroes as well. He exhibited super-strength, energy manipulation powers, and flying, but there where rumors about his other powers like teleportation, or invisiblity. Some say, that he is part of the top-secret government black-ops unit created to fight rogue metahumans, some say that he is another alien crashed on Earth, just like Superman, or Martian Manhunter, and others say, that he is a brilliant scientist who created biomechanical armor to fight crime. There is no way, to determine, what version of his story is indeed truth, but one thing is certain: Regardless who he really Black Adam is his powers make him extremely dangerous.
Sorry for my bad grammar.
And another one...
(http://a.imageshack.us/img337/8054/ultimatesabbacv2.jpg)
Gregory Karnes/SabbacGregory Karnes was low-level criminal, arsonist, neo-nazi, and satanist until one of his arson plans backfired, leaving him trapped inside burning building. To his amazement fire wasn't harming him, but instead making him stronger and healthier. He decided that his newfound powers are gift from Satan, and that he was chosen to become "Dark Messiah", destined to start Armageddon. He named himself Sabbac, and gathered group of followers around him, to help him with his task. His powers are flame generation, and control, enhanced strength and endurance, and heat absorption. He's getting progressively stronger depending on amount of heat absorbed, waring from little above human strength, to the power allowing him to tear tanks armors with his bare hands. High temperatures also gives him temporal healing factor. Scientist theorized, that his powers could make him one of the most powerful metahumans on the planet, but his low intelligence, pride, and narcissism prevent him from using them at full scale. Research also revealed, that his power is not supernatural, but instead comes from latent metagene activated by specific environment. Sabbac don't believes in that, still convinced, that his destiny is to bring Armageddon, and become Satan most faithful servant.
Character based on classic Captain Marvel foe described here:

And another...

Clifford Zmeck/Major Force
Clifford Zmeck was averange US Army soldier until he volunteer to the top secret experiment, and took a dose of the super-steroid called Miraclo. From the twenty soldiers that took the steroid only two exhibited superpowers: him, and Guy Garner, later known as the Warrior. Initially scientists believed that Zmeck was given the same powers as Gardner (Superhuman durability, enhanced reflex, healing factor), but soon it become apparent, that their where wrong. Zmeck also had super strenght, inhuman speed, and become virtually invincible. Later he also shown ability of leaping great distances, and even flying. But at the other times he could be harmed by regular weapons, and his powers where greatly weakened. After long research scientists found the source of Zmeck's power: He has latent psionic powers, who where activated and boosted after use of Miraclo. He wasn't super strong, or durable, but instead subconsciously used his psionic abilities to enhance his physical attributes. So level of his power is tied to his concentration, and confidence. Government made him a patriotic symbol, a hero codenamed "Major Force", ensuring that his powers would be at their peak, and ordered him to destroy enemies of America. That mission made him arch-enemy of Captain Atom, and Sabbac.
Time for another classic DC character butche... improved by me.
Albrecht Krieger/Captain Nazi (1941-1946)

His second identity: Albert Kruger/Valor (1947-2009)
(http://img510.imageshack.us/img510/9756/ultimatevalor.jpg)
During World War II Nazi scientists desperately tried to create wunderwaffe, the wonder weapon to ensure the victory of Germany. Finally they developed the special chemical, later known as Miraclo. But just as its later versions it was rather unstable, and unpredictable, so most of the volunteers died. But there was one success: Young soldier named Albrech Krieger survived the full process and gained superhuman powers. He was given the codename "Captain Nazi", and become living symbol of the Hitler's "Master Race", the embodiment of Reich military might, the perfect living weapon. Experiment gave him superhuman strength, impenetrable skin, slowed aging, accelerated healing, and ability of flying. During the war Captain Nazi fought the Allies, but even his power wasn't enough to stop their soldiers. During trials in Nuremberg he was shocked, and repulsed by the crimes committed by the members of the Nazi Party, and surrendered himself to the Americans. He was given the new name, and identity, and begun the crusade against crime to atone for his past crimes: Captain Nazi is no more, and in his place tireless defender of the weak and helpless remains... Albert Kruger is the Valor.

Hourman Corps - Officer
(http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1078/ultimatehourman2.jpg)
During early experiments with Miraclo it became clear, that only 1 on the 10 people get superpowers after taking the dose, while the others simply die. During 1947-1976 period USA, and Germany finest scientists worked on perfecting the formula, but without greater success. Finally in 1984 new version of drug was created: weaker than pure Miraclo, but more stable, and easier to control. Converted to the gaseous form it can be inhaled without any side-effects, but its power faded after one hour. Further research proved, that "Hourman Formula" could been used on everyone, but only worked for an hour, and after fading test subjects were immune to it during the next five hours. In 1987 special unit were created: The Hourman Corps - made from the best soldiers, equipped with special costumes providing them controlled exposure to the Hourman Formula, and highly advanced weapons. Most of the basic units are equipped witch version of Miraclo giving them enhanced strength, durability, stamina, and reflexes, but officers, and special units have other abilities, like pyrokinesis, or super-speed. Because the costs of the Miraclo production number of units of the Hourman Corps are quite low, and they are used only in specific situations beyond the reach of traditional army.

Allan Scott/Green LanternMost people often dream about being powerful, and influential. Doctor Allan Scott has more power and influence than anybody dreamed of, but he hates every second of his life. On July 1947 mysterious object crashed near US Army Base in Roswell. Over the years incredible number of conspiracy theories about this event circulated. It's an irony, that the one found most ridiculous is in fact true: That day the mysterious spaceship crash-landed the Earth. Inside was the body of dead alien, and mysterious artifact generating the energy unknown to science. Dr Scott was one of the scientists who tried to found the purpose of the strange object. And he found it. During one of the experiments artifact exploded, killing everyone save dr. Scott. He was imbued with mysterious green light, giving him incredible, nearly limitless powers, but not without cost. He was able to make hard light constructs, create and destroy inorganic matter, manipulate energy in various ways from the powerful energy blasts, to the impenetrable shields. He was also able to fly, stopped to feel tired, don't need to eat, sleep, or breathe and does not age. But he was also able to feel lies, aggression and negative thoughts from other people, fell the pain, and sorrow of crime victims. To keep himself from slipping into insanity dr. Scott started to fight crime, and after several decades he become an urban legend. In the darkest nights those who are in need always look to the sky in hope, that their tireless protector would help them. At the same time those, who pray on the innocents fearfully look for the blinding green light. The light of Green Lantern.
They look cool guys. A majority of the characters I won't be using but there are a lot of design elements you guys have come up with that I can apply to the characters I do have in mind. Unfortunately I'm backed up with school and work at the moment, along with my personal re-branding project to implement them. But hopefully soon.

Lex Luthor/Ultraman
Lex Luthor was the successful businessman, philanthropist and scientist responsible for several breakthroughs in genetics and cybernetics, earning large fortune in the age of 22. Fascinated by superhuman abilities of his childhood friend Clark Kent/Superman he begun researching Kryptonian physiology, hoping to uncover the secrets of their perfect organisms, and finding the cure for cancer, and other incurable diseases. During his work he created human-Kryptonian hybrid later named Lionel Luthor using his own DNA, and found that gene fusion between the two races is possible. So he altered his own body, and got superpowers similar to those of Superman, although significantly weaker. Later research proven that the alien mineral known as Kryptonite has opposite effect on him, than on pure-blood Kryptonian: Instead of weakening him it made him stronger, possibly even more powerful than Superman, but without regular "charging" his body cells with Kryptonite radiation he lost all powers. Lex decided to work further on perfecting the process, and in the meantime dubbing himself "Ultraman" and becoming the superhero, gaining large popularity in the result. While his primary concern is safety of Metropolis he sometimes work with other metahumans in need.

But only few know, that a superhuman called Brainiac is also a most profitable weapons dealer of the underworld, closely connected to Batman's League of Assasins.

Some time later his "father" experimented on himself, becoming superhero called Ultraman, Lionel quickly followed his steps, and christened himself "Ultraboy". Presently he is helping Lex with protecting Metropolis... when his not occupied with interviews, and picking up girls in nightclubs.

here are the links I have hero machine http://www.ugo.com/channels/comics/heroMachine2/ and this one http://fabricadeherois.blogspot.com/ I have another one that is similar to Fabric ade herois but it is one I downloaded and is on my computer. I used it to create Wild cat :rickbm
Hey Green Hornet, I really like the way that Wildcat turned out. Do you have a link that I could use to download that program? Can you post it somewhere or e-mail it to me? Thanks.
You can download it to your computer and install it. The zip file is here: http://rs383.rapidshare.com/files/133970420/fabrica.rar (http://rs383.rapidshare.com/files/133970420/fabrica.rar) :rickbm
Right on, thanks.
Hey Murs, ye still looking for stuff for characters or not? If so, PM me and I'll slam a few things together for ye...maybe...if I can get Prev off my arse about the Evengers I'm working on.
Since Green Hornet uploaded his new creations (Very cool by the way...) i've decided to follow the example and share my other creation with the world. So, here he is:

dr. William Freeman/Shazam.
Bio:
Dr. William Freeman was a biologist, and geneticist from Fawcett City working on a way to rid the problem of world hunger. To achieve this he worked on a chemical stimulant, that theoretically should speed up plants growth, but without much success. Then one day he accidentally found out, that his stimulant works perfectly after electrocution. Unfortunately he couldn't share his discovery to the world, because during an attack of eco-terrorist group on his lab, he was thrown into vat of chemicals. Laboratory is blown up, and Freeman barely survives, severely wounded. Shocked, he accidentally touches electrical cable, and is electrocuted. Surprisingly electricity didn't killed him, but instead healed him, and made him stronger. Later he discovered, that his body was soaked with stimulant, and becomes temporally enhanced in contact with electricity. In his empowered state he becomes 8.2 feet tall, gets super strength, and durability, and heals almost instantly. He can also expel electricity from his body, but doing so he becomes weaker. He also retains his genius-level intelligence, but his looks made many of his opponents take him for brainless thug, with fact he often uses for his advantage. Freeman creates a special costume designed to store electricity, and becomes superhero called Shazam. He mainly fights low-level crime, and stays in his home city for most of time, but helps other heroes in times of need.
I know, I know, crummy back story, but well, I'm just a nerd with a lot of free time, so...
Oh, and please forgive me for bad grammar, I really have problems with that.
Hi murs have you got anymore of the udcu in the works? And can I have a copy of the aquaman please?

Hi murs have you got anymore of the udcu in the works? And can I have a copy of the aquaman please?
Yes and yes. But, you'll have to wait for the re-skin. ;)
You sir are a gentleman and a scholar! :thumbup:
Because Murs created such great looking Aquaman, I decided to design archenemy for him. So without further ado:
(http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/2640/ultimateoceanmaster.jpg)
Ivan Gort/Ocean Master
Bio:
After the success of British "Project: Aquaman" Soviet government decided, that they need their own aquatic bio-weapon, to counter Sgt. Curry's powers. Thus an Specnaz operative Ivan Gort was chosen to participate in Russia's own supersoldier project "Leviatan". Using stolen S.T.A.R Labs top-secret data, combined with the experiences of their earlier projects soviet scientists fused Gort's DNA with the several sea animals, but results wasn't as good, as achieved by their British counterparts. While sergeant Curry body was still humanoid, in Gort case mutation changed him into repulsive disfigured monster. Still, he gained superhuman strength, and durability, as well, as the ability to survive underwater. Believing that if he killed Aquaman, he would be changed into human again, he began their years-long fight, using the codename "Leviathan". After the fall of the Soviet Union he finally found out, that it is impossible to change him back, so he disappeared into the sea for the decade. He reappeared recently, as an eco-terrorist calling himself Ocean Master, and using his black-ops experiences to destroy the ships, and equipment belonging to oil companies. This activities leaded to numerous clashes with his old enemy Aquaman.
I borrowed his civilian name from the old Firestorm enemy Stalnoivolk.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalnoivolk
Again sorry for the grammar, and corny back story.
And here's another Russian metahuman I've created, while thinking about Ocean Master's design.
Leonid Kovar/Red Star (1941-1956)
(http://a.imageshack.us/img121/4669/ultimateredstar.jpg)
Leonid Kovar/Parasite (1972-1986/1997-2010)
(http://a.imageshack.us/img59/3298/ultimateparasitev2.jpg)
Bio:
In 1932 Russian Secret Police NKVD found old research facility in Siberia created in 1909, by their Tsarist counterpart Okhrana after so called "Tunguska Event". They found out, that the object that crashed there wasn't the meteorite, but some kind of spaceship. By the special decree of the Stalin new research lab was created, dedicated to finding secret of the ship. Using the blood of dead aliens scientists created the serum, that supposedly would give any human extraordinary strength, and durability. Major Leonid Kovar was one of the first volunteers, who was given the serum, and the only one, who survived. He exhibited superhuman strength, resistance, and accelerated healing factor. Others died, or became horribly disfigured. Kovar was chosen to become the living symbol of the USRR , and was given costume, and codename "Red Star". He was sent to the front lines in 1941, and quickly become a hero, and the bane of the Nazis. In the meantime he was given additional injections of the serum, and his powers has grown significantly. But, as a curious side effect his skin started to change color into purple. Scientist stopped the injections, fearing of the other side effect, but Stalin ordered them to continue. Kovar was given a new costume, that covered his whole body, and was again sent to fight. In 1944 after repeated injections Major Kovar lost all his body hair, but exhibited new power: absorption of energy, and redirecting it, as powerful blast. Later he also discovered, that he can absorb lifeforce of other humans to temporally boost his powers. In the 50's his body started to mutate further, and his reliance on energy deepened. Soon, he had to absorb lifeforce regularly, to stay alive. In 1956 it was decided, that he would publicly retire as the Red Star, and his body was frozen for further examination. In 1970 samples of his blood was taken to create another mutate, later known as the Ocean Master. He had awaken then, killed several scientists, and escaped. In 1972 he resurfaced, changed beyond recognition, calling himself Parasite. His body was now more alien, than human, and needed large amounts of energy to survive. Also insane creature, that major Kovar became still perceived himself as a hero of the USRR , and started to fight his country enemies. Russian government feared him, and finaly captured him again in 1986. In 1997 he escaped again, and to this day remains free, occasionally working as a professional assassin.
Bad grammar, and story again, so sorry...
These are cool Mole-Man. I really like that Red Star circa 1941 look.
Thank You, for your kind words Murs, it's really nice to know, that someone likes my designs, besides me...
An if we talk about designs... Here's last character (For now at least) from my "Soviet Superhumans" series:
(http://a.imageshack.us/img547/4375/ultimateyellowlantern.jpg)
Piotr Roslov/Yellow Lantern (1975-1981)
Bio:
After the fiasco of "Project Leviathan", and "Codename: Red Star" USRR government decided to stop the experiments on artificially creating superhumans, opting to work on creating new weapons, based on the captured spaceship technology. After research on the ship engine module scientists found out, that it recharges itself by absorbing energy from the nearby sources of light. After several experiments they found out, that structures christened "energy discs" can store incredible amount of power, comparable to fully sized nuclear reactor, yet they discharge after 24 hours of use. This flaw made impossible to use them as a cheap source of energy, so it was decided to use it as a weapon. In 1975 special energy containment suit powered by alien energy disc was created. Air force pilot, major Piotr Roslov was chosen as it's wearer, and given codename "Yellow Lantern". Suit granted him power of flight, forcefield covering his body, and ability to project powerful energy blasts. He was active till 1981, when it was discovered, that longtime exposure to the suit's power has given him terminal cancer. He escaped to the USA, and turned himself to the authorities, using the suit as a bargaining chip. He was given new identity, and citizenship, as well as big sum of money, as a payment for Yellow Lantern Suit. He died in 1986, due to his cancer, but US government still has the suit, and works on perfecting the technology.
And now something directly inspired by Murs Ultimate Batman. I thought to myself: If in this universe Batman is a villain, the what about Joker? Character described below is not a direct Joker analogue (Mainly because i got other plans for him), but could fill the role of Batman archenemy.
(http://a.imageshack.us/img707/4590/ultimatecreeper.jpg)
The Creeper
Bio:
There is a saying in the criminal underworld, and law enforcement alike: "If you go against Batman, it must mean, that you are insane, or suicidal". In case of man called the Creeper it could be true... Or rather it's certainly true. Nobody knows when the strange vigilante in bizarre, bright colored clown costume appeared first, but he quickly became major obstacle in many of Batman's schemes, blowing his warehouses up, killing his men, and bribed politicians etc. Of course that made him League of Assassins target, but so far nobody could kill him. According to some rumors he was actually killed several times, but always returned some time later. Some say, that he is immortal, others state, that in reality several persons wore Creeper's costume, after death of the first one. Putting rumors about his immortality aside he hasn't exhibited any superhuman powers, relying on his acrobatic abilities, combined with martial arts, and apparent fearlessnesses, bordering on complete disregard to death. Creeper is also known to be extremely violent, and unforgiving. Only time can tell if this one man crusade, against world's most powerful criminal empire can ever succeed...

QuoteThey are cool indeed. A Soviet team is a really good idea too. I'll have to shoot you a PM if I ever decide to expand.
I'm flattered, but I don't think You need any help, cause your designs are awesome. Take your Captain Marvel for example: In comparition "Shazam" i've put here looks really lame. By the way your newest creation filled me with inspiration, so i've made this guy:
(http://a.imageshack.us/img375/2705/ultimatefate.jpg)
Amon Tomaz/FateDoctor Amon Tomaz was famous archaeologist, and Egyptologist specializing with religion, and rituals of Ancient Egypt. In 1997 he disappeared mysteriously during the dig sponsored by Waynetech, and was proclaimed dead. In 2002 he returned, but he wasn't the same man, that vanished years ago. His whole body was covered with glowing tattoos, and he exhibited superhuman abilities. Doctor Tomaz, now calling himself Fate said, that he was abducted by higher beings known as Lords of Order, and chosen to be their herald in our world. At first scientists didn't believed him, but it became apparent, that his body was highly enhanced by some unknown technology. Fate has the ability to transmute organic, and inorganic matter, create hard-light illusions, and also can heal, or enhance his own body, as well, as others. Many people called his powers "magic", but he always said this is merely highly advanced science. He also demonstrated incredible knowledge of technology, genetics, cybernetics, and physics. In recent years he created cult-like organization centered over Lords of Order, and their millenniums old war against malicious Lords of Chaos. Universal Church of Order gained large popularity, and is slowly becoming one of major worlds religions. Fate detached himself of Earth's superhumans, preferring to meditate, and negotiate, rather than fight, but he still remains one of the most powerful beings on planet.
At first this was supposed to be Black Adam, then Spectre, and finally I decided on Fate. Design is quite obviously based on Warded/Painted Man from Peter. V. Brett's "Demon Series".
Because Murs Ultimate Atom looks so cool, I've felt overwhelming need to design enemy for him. So here he is:
(http://a.imageshack.us/img833/5677/ultimateatomsmasher.jpg)
Albert Rothstein/Atom Smasher
Bio:
When Ray Palmer left Lockheed-Martin research he forgot some of his old plans. His long-time rival Albert Rothstein was hired to decrypt them, and then if possible, weaponize them. One of Palmer's discarded designs was a rough, and unfinished plan for armor being the previous version of his Atom suit. With the help of the other scientists Rothstein was able to finish, and improve the discarded project, creating something he named the "Nuklon Armor". In theory it was supposed to give it's wearer the same powers as Atom's suit, but Rothstein's lack of full knowledge of the technology prevented it. Armor only gives it's wearer ability to change his or hers body mass, becoming incredibly dense, or completely intangible, as well as increased strength, and durability depending on current body's mass. Later plasma cannons where mounted on the gauntlets, and jetpack was added, but Rothstein's armor was still just a toy, compared to Palmer's suit. Fueled by jealousy Rothstein experimented further, and during an experiment he was exposed to the armor's power source, and mutated, gaining power to rearrange atoms as result. At first he carelessly played with his new abilities, but soon he found out, that overusing this power radically altered his body composition, causing it to slowly disintegrate. Now he is confined to the Nuklon Armor, and can't live without it. Soon Rothstein became insane, and blames Palmer for his condition. To date he tried to kill him several times, but always failed.
Sorry for bad English, my "grammar sense" is out of order today...
And here's another of my creations, inspired by Murs INCREDIBLE NoMan redesign. It reminded me of Spectre, and I realised, that I still didin't worked on him, and that is quite strange, because DC's Wraith of God is one of my favorite characters. So, without further ado:
(http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/5442/ultimatespectrev2.jpg)
Spectre.
Bio:
All wars have legends, and strange rumors bordering on fantasies, and fairy tales. War in Iraq is no exeption. After the fall of Saddam Hussein's goverment many people thought, that peace will follow. But the extremists, and people of the old regime prevented it. Everyday soldiers, policemen, and civilians alike where killed in bombings, and shootings. And then, one night everything changed: Group of Iraqi Police Service members where ambushed in Baghdad, by the group of heavily armed extremists, whithout any chances of surrival. But unexpectedly assailants bursted with green flames, and burned to death. Later on, one of the policemen swore, that he saw a mysterious figure in green clothes, with the burning eyes on the nearby roof, and that this unknown man was the one, who saved them. Nobody believed him at first, but soon similiar incidents where reported. Bodies of horribly burnt terrorists where found in Baghdad, and all witnesses pointed to the unknown man in green, as a culprit. US authorities suspect, that the mysterious man is in fact unknown metahuman, with the power to generate, and manipulate flames, but locals perceive him, as an angel sent to protect them.
As always sorry about my grammar.
ehi wait for me ive one to!

Naitvalis, this is a great design!! Makes me wish I could draw, instead using Heromachine... But, well, I guess cant have everything :( Did You created any backstory for him?
thank you mole man, i like yours to, my favourite is red star coz my cap attitude hehe, anyway no background story yet.
Thank you. It's kinda funny because Murs said, he likes Red Star too, and that was actualy a character I've put least effort of them all. Just needed some simple design for my Parasite backstory, and shamelessly based (Ripped of..) him on Ultimate Red Guardian, from the "Ultimate Nightmare" miniseries. Here's the link to the pic of him:

But putting that aside I whould love to see more of your designs. Any future plans?
Another day, another design! This time my version of classic Golden Age character, and a member of All-Star Squadron:

Tex Thompson/Mr. America
Bio:
During the 1941 American goverment realised the threat posed, by Third Reich metahuman research, and started their own project. Using specialistic surgery, and hormone therapy scientists devised a way, to give an ordinary man the superhuman powers. Process was tested on several volunteers, but whitout success. While they all became slighty stronger, and healthier, none of them exibited real superhuman powers. Finally, young, entusiastic soldier named Tex Thompson was aproved into the project, and in his case results where extraordinary. He gained superhuman strength, and reflexes, as well, as steel hard skin, and healing factor. Scientist repeated the procedure on other people, but none of them gained powers similiar to Thompson. When it became apparent, that plans of making the army of super-soldiers failed, Thompson was chosen to be a living morale booster, and given bright, colorful costume, as well as codename "Mr. America". He was set to the most dangerous places, to raise the spirits of the soldiers with his incredible exploits. After the end of World War II he was sent to Korea, and Wietnam, but meanwhile he found out, that his powers weakened significantly, and started to fade. It was decided, that he was to be relieved of active duty, but before he was sent to USA, Wietcong's booby-trap exploded on his way to airport, and wounded him severely. With loosing an arm, he abandoned his role as Mr. America, and became a politician. Soon he became Republican senator, and gained huge popularity. Over the years he has lost all his superhuman powers, but still aged in much slower rate, than regular humans. Thanks to that small blessing even being over 80 years old, he was as healthy, and strong as fifty years ago. In 2002 he exibited very radical opinions on the War on Terror topic, becoming a target for extremists. During an speech in New York he was shot in the chest by a sniper, and barely surrived. But that near death experience somehow reactivated his powers again. Senator Thompson decided, that America needs the symbol of patriotism again, and became Mr. America once again. Now aided by the highly advanced cybernetic implants, as well as his regained powers, and huge military experience he started one man war on terror...
I based most of his look on the universally hated 90's over the top designs, like Rob Liefields "His muscles have muscles, and pouches, and guns, and also pouches, and don't forget about cybernetic, and pouches... and guns" style, especially Cable. Why? Because I started reading comics seriously during this time, and Im very sentimental... Still, it's as corny now, as it was then...
wow murs you have expected such number of ideas?

wow murs you have expected such number of ideas?
No I didn't actually. Miguel Yanke's Legion idea and yours and Mole-Man's Soviet super heroes are very appealing to me. If and when I expand, those two ideas are definitely in.
After looking for new Russian superhumans on DC Comics Database I've come across this guy: http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Subjekt-17_%28New_Earth%29
It whould be a shame to not use him, so...
(http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/3827/ultimatesubjekt17.jpg)
Subjekt-17
Bio:
During the "Project: Red Star" another sub-project was devised, involving the use of dead bodies, instead of living volunteers. Using the surgery, and alien technology bodies of 17 soldiers where fused together, and brought back to live, thanks to the alien fuel cell, later named energy disc. But the project was only a partial succes: While newly created being had all the strenghts, and abilities of the dead soldiers used to create his body, he also had fragmented bits of their memories, and personalities, making him totally insane, and uncontrollable. This fact combined with his enormous phsysical strenght, wast psionic powers, and nearly instant tissue regeneration (Except the scars created before his "ressurection") made him a humanoid weapon of mass destruction. As such he is contained is specially created bunker deep under Moscow, waiting for the moment to be used...
Based on the title character from the tv movie "Mr. Stitch", and the Bizarro. As a side note, this originally suposed to be my Ultimate Captain Marvel...
Once again, please forgive me my grammar.
After a long period of laziness, I've decided to play with the Heromachine, and here's the results:
(http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/6997/ultimatebizarrov3.jpg)
Doctor Albert Dalton/Bizarro
Bio:
After the first appearance of the Superman, many where amazed by his incredible powers, and of course wanted to have similar abilities. Soon series of experiments followed, some of them completely successful, like Ra's Al Ghul's project, resulting in creation of Captain Marvel, some of them slightly flawed but still a success, like the US Government Wonder Woman Project. But on the every success, there where a thousand failures. One of them is a case of doctor Albert Dalton. He was a Lexcorp scientist, in charge of Biotechnology Research Department, obsessed in discovering the mystery of Superman's powers. After obtaining a sample of the Man of Steel's blood he replicated it, and used it's modified version on animals, in hope of mutating them. There where many failures, but eventually a gorilla named Grood gained highly enhanced intelligence, as well as incredible strength and durability. Unfortunately Dalton underestimated powers of his creation, resulting in gorilla's escape. During Grood's escape scientist was gravely injured, and to survive he injected himself with the mutated Kryptonian blood. He's wounds healed, but he hasn't gained any superhuman powers at all... At least at first. Several weeks later doctor Dalton realized, that his intelligence, reasoning abilities, and learning speed vastly improved. During the following research he found out, that his body absorbs the energy from the sunlight, and "boosts" his brain to the superhuman levels. Unfortunately there where a horrible side effects: After few months Dalton's body began to change once more. Patches of chalk-white skin, covered with glowing green veins, giving it a appearance of cracked marble appeared. As an ironic twist along with the changes of his body he gained powers similar to those of Superman, but much weaker, finally achieving his original aim. Along with them our scientist exhibited violent mood swings, and periods of intense paranoia. Soon he realized, that his mutation was greater, than he expected, but as a result he would lost his sanity, along with his humanity as well. Finally he would become extremely powerful monster, without an ounce of sanity, or logic. Dalton confined himself to his laboratory, cut from the sunlight, and begun to take a liquid form of Kryptonite, to kill non-human cells in his body, or at least slow down the process, while he works on a cure. But to this date, he found none...
As always sorry for the grammar, and dumb back story.
BTW. I've borrowed his name from professor Dalton - the creator of "Duplicator Ray", that created the first Bizarro, and Albert Beezer, a biological template for a Al Bizarro, main hero of the "A. Bizarro" mini-series.
