From what I've seen, I have several characters that could be used, but they have quite a few problems with textures or small perforations.
Today I was repairing two characters with texture issues. One is extremely complex, but the model is quite acceptable, and the other is quite good and acceptable in its final version.
Here I am uploading Betty Bat, reuniting the brothers.
Actually, since her arms were badly damaged in the screenshot, I had imported her brother's arms, which caused problems with the texture. I'm happy with how it turned out; they're a good duo of cartoon-style villains.
The other one is a DuckTales hero that I don't think is in any game, but it's taking me too long to fix its texture.

These were captured together; the models turned out nice and the textures are excellent, but only the front and right side. The back has numerous errors. I don't know if it's worth the effort to fix it, given that there are two versions of each character that are almost perfect. But since they're acceptable from the front, I'm sharing and uploading them. If anyone wants to repair them or take on the repair, I'd be happy to help, as always. I don't consider them that important because there are the others.

I've been playing with the entire W.I.T.C.H. character roster: the good girls (Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia, and Hay Lin) and the villains led by Neryssa: Khor, Tridrad, Annihilator, Shagon, and Ember.


First, I played a match with Will, Irma, Taranee, and Cornelia against the villains. Then I played it again, this time with Hay Lin, Irma, Taranee, and Will. It's an excellent group of characters, incredibly varied and fun. I've already uploaded all these characters and their effects; there's nothing new. But I thought I'd add their hero files in case you already have them all or want to download them now. Using the hero files, you'll have everything just like I have it, which I think is truly one of the best.

It is a rar archive with the hero files of:
WITCH CORNELIA
WITCH HAY LIN
WITCH IRMA
WITCH NERYSSA OLD
WITCH TARANEE
WITCH WILL
WITCHOLD CASSIDY
WITCHOLD HALINOR
WITCHV ANNIHILATOR
WITCHV EMBER
WITCHV KHOR
WITCHV SHAGON
WITCHV TRIDART
WITCHZ CASSIDY
WITCHZ CORNELIA
WITCHZ IRMA

I've been restoring textures for the characters in one of Argentina's longest-running and most famous comics: Anteojito by GarcĂ­a Ferrer.

A boy with a thirst for knowledge and adventure, who faces time travel and all sorts of crazy situations in the city of Trulala.

Some of the characters are so cartoonish that of all the ones I tried to capture, only a few turned out acceptable.




(IT MADE ME WANT TO PUT THEM IN THE STREETS OF TRULALA, EVEN IF ONLY FOR A MOMENT)
(I INSIST I DON'T HAVE RD'S TALENT FOR DIORAMAS BUT IT WAS ENOUGH FOR ME TO PUT THEM STANDING TOGETHER!)

Goodboys

Anteojito.
He is a boy and the protagonist of the comic; he is an adventurer.


Antifaz.
He is Anteojito's chemist uncle. He helps and accompanies his nephew in everything. He might throw a bottle of acidic chemicals as a weapon.


Trapito.
A scarecrow boy who comes to life, who even had his own movie, and it's one of the saddest movies ever made. The character is adorable and can hit and withstand quite a lot since he's made of wood.


Super-Hijitus (Hijitus's superhero alter ego).
Without a doubt, he is the most important superhero in Argentina's history (since PatoruzĂș the Indian isn't strictly a superhero, although he could certainly be considered one). He is a boy who has a magic hat; he goes inside it and comes out transformed into a superhero, able to fly, with super strength and resistance.


Boxitraceo:
He's a yellow boxing kangaroo. Professor Neurus originally wanted to train him and use him as a henchman, and he did so briefly, but because he's noble and adorable, he ended up joining the good guys.


Villains:

Professor Neurus
He's an evil mad scientist who's always trying to steal things, from money to anything of importance.


Pucho
He's Professor Neurus's henchman and right-hand man. He's quite strong, though a bit lazy.



Ketchup
He's a musclebound henchman of Professor Neurus, brute force in the style of Popeye's villains.


Truku
He's an evil, super-strong robot created by Professor Neurus. The ultimate fighting rival.


There are many more characters from this comic that could be made, but many turned out badly. I'm removing the watermarks and repairing the textures in general.

I had these figurines when I was a kid: Boxitraceo, Pucho, Largirucho, and Anteojito.

Good to see someone else doing a diorama. Good job on it.

I'll look to see about rigging some of these

I know I gave you a lot of things you wanted; do what you like when you can. I like you all and I'm glad you're on the waiting list. Thank you so much.If you can, when you have time, correct Miah's leg, that would be fantastic.

Side notes on flaws I saw in the models:

Trapito has a loose straw hair on his head; either join it or remove it.

I think Professor Neurus is the best modeled, and he's the main villain. He has his weapon that can practically shoot all kinds of things.

I fixed Pucho's eyes and it looks great. He also uses a Viking helmet and a sword in some versions, although 90% of the time he appears as the model with his green cap. Specifically, the sword is the same as the one from another model I captured (the smallest of the Gummi Bears). As soon as I find them, I'll provide that sword in a wood texture for the bear and a steel texture for Pucho.

Super Hijitus seems like he could be a nightmare to animate because of the way his cape is attached almost to his torso, although he's the most suitable for combat since he'd be a match for any standard superhero like Superman.

Anteojito could use a slingshot and a team rally to motivate a teammate by pointing. Basically, he doesn't have any other powers besides leading or throwing a rock.

Antifaz, on any generic basic character that can throw something, would be suitable. He's the most human-like in proportion, and perhaps easier to animate than the others because his legs aren't so short.

The Boxitracio doesn't have the best kangaroo tail; perhaps using Dino's tail from Flintstone would be appropriate if we're being picky. It should look good on any character that throws punches for animation.

Ketchup has his punching tool and could be an interesting cartoon villain. I'd have to add the connection of his guns behind his neck to the texture.

Truku is the model of the robot from Neuros. In fact, with enough money, you could make an army of Trukus, which would give him more gameplay options.

I've put together a pack of characters that I animated in videos based on Marvel comics, and I captured some models. Some are a bit large, while others range from 2000 to 3000 polygons and are more suitable. Many are overused characters like Storm, Gambit, and Jean Grey, but some others don't currently exist in Freedom Force vs. 3R in any version.

I'm also gathering the secondary DuckTales characters I captured, correcting their textures as best I can. I might include them in both packs once I finish reviewing all the files and have clarified which versions, probably sometime this weekend.

The Gummi Bears are also captured; I only found half the cast among my files, which is why I haven't uploaded them yet. I'll probably upload those three packs later, as they'll be the last ones in good quality.

I've finished correcting the Disney Gummi Bear collection, a forgotten series from the 80s set in a medieval, Lord of the Rings-esque world with trolls, ogres, dragons, witches, wizards, kings, and of course, Gummi Bears.

The family consists of:

* Zummi Gummi, the father and wizard of the family. His accessory is his magic book.

* Tummi Gummi, the gluttonous one in charge of agriculture, is a sort of uncle who is also valiant in combat when needed. His accessory is his field scepter.

* Sunni Gummi: the teenage bear obsessed with fashion and a reflection of rebellion against the clan's rules. She is also noble and adventurous. Her accessory is an "ogre-crushing" hammer.

* Gruffi Gummi: the tough, construction-minded, and occasionally grumpy one. His accessory is a large axe. He is the strongest and most skilled in hand-to-hand combat of the Gummi clan.

* Grammi Gummi: She is the matriarch and cook. She is known for using kitchen utensils when facing villains. For this reason, her accessory is a rolling pin.

* Cubbi Gummi: He is the youngest member of the Gummi clan. He dreams of being a knight and often assumes the role of a masked figure to enter the fray. He is a swordsman and uses his very rustic wooden sword. Without a doubt, he is often the one who sets things in motion.

* Duke Ightorn: He is the villain of the series. He is a traitor to the crown who intends to seize the kingdom, the crown, and destroy the Gummis along the way. This becomes his highest priority, and he leads a truly enormous army of ogres. His weapon would be any generic sword; he doesn't have a specific model.

* All the weapons are together in the same model pack with the same texture, which includes an alternative texture converted to grayscale so that Cubbi's sword can be reused for Pucho's sword.


https://www.mediafire.com/file/nhi2jhubnp7uv9o/GUMMI+BEARS.rar/file

A while back I made several generic ogres for this program, so Duke already has his troop of henchmen ready.

Things that probably nobody cares about:
Of these characters, I have Zunni, Grammi, and Sunni in my figure collection. They came in surprise eggs. Those three eggs were the only ones I received as a child; I asked for them quite often but they weren't very common. I was lucky to have different characters.


Next, we'll put together the DuckTales pack.

#487
These characters appear as supporting characters in DuckTales: Duckworth, Bentina Beakley, and Doofus.

Doofus kept me busy for several days; his texture was truly a nightmare, and it literally still is. There are minor details that could still be corrected, but for the most part, it's acceptable. The model omitted the hat, but I think the littles ducks have a version with the hat that Random Days made; it would just be a matter of borrowing it.

The pack is rounded out by a few other characters who might be considered related:
* Check Grin Hardwing (the goalkeeper duck from Mighty Ducks; I didn't remember that I had captured a version of him. He's relatively decent, and since he's a duck, that's why they included him in the pack).

* Bug Master (the villain from Darkwing who controls insects; I thought she'd be a great character to use Ant's available attacks in Freedom Force, but then I forgot that a model of her had also been successful).

* Gyro Gearloose or Ciro Peraloca(in Spanish) (I don't think anyone needs to mention that he appeared in all the Disney duck series).


https://www.mediafire.com/file/wotu9klxyifp68s/DUCKTALES+AND+FRIENDS.rar/file

The chaos of characters I've captured from Marvel will keep me entertained for quite some time until I come up with a "balanced and decent" pack; that will be my next release in a few days.

Miah's leg should already be fixed. I deleted the original file and re-uploaded the corrected version when you told me about it. Have you checked? Is it still bad?
