Final Pack

Young Gabrielle, Nebula, Callisto, Ares and Gilgamesh

All meshes and skins by Cranlox

The girls are rigged to taskmistress_fixed, and the boys to Gren's Taskmaster.

All come with a sword except for Gabrielle who comes with a staff.

Nebula is a joining of two different meshes - what I thought was the best head joined to different body.

Uploaded to the Ancient Heroes/ Fantasy folder.



I just got back from the hospital and I'm still dealing with my leg. It's really getting to me, and I hope it's over soon. At times it bothers me quite a bit, and finding your posts and seeing you bring my work to life always puts an extra smile on my face, which is great! :thumbup:  :thumbup:  :thumbup:

I haven't been able to read that comic; I only came across a comic with the Legion characters. I'll look for it online. It looks really well done!

Legion of Superheroes Diorama - The Return of Lightning Lad.

Adventure comics #312

In a previous story, Lightning Lad died in battle to protect another Legionaire from dying. At one point, it was thought he had been revived, but it was really his twin sister taking his place trying to keep his memory alive.

In the end, the only way to restore him was for another Legionaire to sacrifice their life in turn, channeling lightning through their body and dying doing so.

It worked, but who was the one who died? Read the story and find out!

This one was going great until Lightning Lass. There was only one skin I found to match the picture, and the mesh with it wouldn't import into blender. Tommyboy's TV meshes also give blender a hard time since there's so many hidden parts in it. It took a few hours to her into the diorama



Lightning Lad - mesh and skin by JJ. Minor kitbash to close his eyes

Superboy - Mesh by Vertex. Skin by C6

Saturn Girl - mesh is female_hair_A. skin by Dark Jared of Skindex

Chameleon Boy - mesh is Chameleon Boy 2 by Tommyboy. Skin by El Insensatez

Lightning Lass - mesh is female_shorthair. Skin by El Insensatez

Sun Boy - Mesh and skin by Toxic J.

Mon El - mesh is male_cape_nobelt. Skin by C6

Buttons, bier, wand, buttons, glass case, and pillow from the models resource

Mods / Map lighting
Last post by RingsOfReznor - April 05, 2026, 11:04:12 PM
I think we all remember that cool  :ff:  Liberty Lad mission "Looking for Trouble"

As I was playing with ReShade to enhance lighting & shadows I noticed a couple of cool things. Firstly the environmental light and shadows are pretty accurate in the base game, coming almost entirely from streetlights. Secondly, the map actually does have directional lighting for unit models - the streetlights will both light & shade our hero correctly when he's in range.

Some questions:
1. Are there any custom maps / mods which make use of this engine feature?
2. Can the reactive lighting be extended to objects in the environment?
3. Noting the progress of hardware since the game's release, is there any capability to enable more realistic unit shadows like what we have in  :ffvstr: but additionally have them also react more accurately to light sources?

ReShade comparison:
Base game
Tonemap, SMAA, HDR Bloom, Color Isolation
all + UberRT
