You do realise that, if you are in for this penny, the pound must include 21 and 24.  The guinea, of course, would be Dr. Girlfriend...

No idea who it is, but it looks intriguing.

gonna do the thigh boots and chest piece today, and then work on some custom animations.
know what would make me totally do the whole cast? even a simple mod, like just the stats and some fighting maybe. i wonder how hard it would be to adapt some of the voices to a mod. nobody has ever tried doing that before. like cut up some animated scenes into voices and make cutscenes.
anyway, this is just to get me started being busy again, i will get back to miss america and the flash mod soon.

I'll volunteer some skin; however, I should warn you that I've yet to pose for anything...revealing thus far in my modest modeling career.

Looking good, BiL.   :thumbup:

Well, he should have an animation where he points one fist forward and grips that wrist to fire his darts.  Other than that, I'm not entirely sure.

i'm sorry, i have no clue who the character is, but the mesh itself looks pretty good.

Sounds appropriate for the ranged attack animation.  Perhaps for the idle animation (or an alternate idle animation) you could have him pose with mock confidence, upright, chest thrust forward with hands on hips, and then have him slightly stooped, fists raised and shaking above his head (cocked somewhat to the left) in a gesture of impotent rage.  (You can leave it to the player to imagine the words "Curse you, Dr. Venture!" on the mesh's lips.)

If I find the time, I'll see if I there are decent video captures I can do of some of The Monarch's mannerisms.  No promises.

He's a minor character in the Ninja Dominicron anime series.

All my efforts are in place to slow The Decay of Lying, and the Ninja Dominicron series provided a crystalline palace for just such an endeavour.

Curse you, BiL, for making such spiffy work of The Monarch!  Now I am quasi-inspired (quasi-, mind you) to realise my own designs for Dr. Girlfriend (or, as she is now known, "Dr. Mrs. The Monarch")--which is precisely what I will do, once I resolve my 3ds max 5.1 SP1-non-working-biped.dlc problem in Windows 7.  :banghead:

Oh yeah.  He does kind of look like the guy who was defeated by Tasueka to win Zai's hand in marriage in the third season episode with the Ring of the Five Elements and the metal golem thingies.

Oh wow. This is fantastic...
He definately needs an animation of throwing a smoke bomb to the floor (and then just sort of standing there, coughing).
