Title: Summertime Blues Challenge 2017-Back to work...
Post by: daglob on July 25, 2017, 05:57:55 PM
Well, there ain't no cure for it, so we might as well enjoy it. The challenge is to come up with something summery or blue. Perhaps re-do your avatar in shades of blue, or put him in a swimsuit or jams, or even do a version in a surfing wetsuit (look good on one of the surfer meshes), invent a summertime character, or put your favorite comic (or pulp, or movie, or anything) character in beach gear. This August we have us an eclipse, so it you want, do something that commemorates the event (I can just see the Eclipso Afghan Ant, Eclipso Cyber Burn, Eclipso Glitch Girl, Eclipso Death's Je... wait a minute... Didn't someone already do that? ;)). You could do a skin for any one of the number of characters called Eclipse, or invent your own.

The rules are simple:

Deadline is Labor Day (September 4th)

Let us see what you do

Have fun

To get us started:

The Girl Glob in a summertime uniform. Considering though that she is actually naked...

Not that I know of, although... anyway, I was talking about the one-time "big event" where all sorts of people in the DC Universe were getting Eclipso-ed. That crossover had my favorite Guy Gardner moment...

I always find it hilarious that everyone uses that as my avatar instead of my in-game one. Good work though!

Haha, awesome!  Those are two excellent skins, DG!  I really love the work on that first one!

This character was requested a lllloooonnnggg time ago. And I did it a long time ago. I just don't know what happened to it.

Nice skin, DG, I've just got one question: Who is he?

WIP of old style Calendar Man. He is a body transplant from Bobby69's Human Bomb and Beyonder's Human Torch. The "fire" is painted because it doesn't show up well in CTool.

Calendar Man was once on fire?  Whoa.

His first appearance on a cover (Detective 259), he looked like this a little. I have read the story, but not for decades.

This represents the summer sun.

First up is Eclipso, a demon or something (depending on his status post every reboot for the past 20 years). This is an old skin, but, hey, he fits. The second is Eclipse who has the distinction of being half anti-matter. Why doesn't she explode in a blast of logic? Comic book science, of course.

So, is that Eclipso Bruce Campbell or Jay Leno?

That Eclipso is on the original Skrull mesh by Fusion.


Y'know, we've got an Ash mesh, and I've got it a .PSD file of him...

That's all that 's left. If I was paying attention I would have included Kirby's birthday in the mix.

Not much participation so far. I hope that it's because everyone is having a wonderful (or at least pleasant) summer. And I realize that if you live anyplace to the Gulf Coast of Texas right now neither is possible.

Not much participation this year. That Real LifeTM keeps getting in the way of a good time. Well, that's all of this year. Next up... Halloween  :mjboo
