This is to inaugurate the Freedom Force 15th Anniversary Challenge.
There are many possibilities:
Redesign the original Freedom Force or Freedom Force vs. The Third Reich characters. One of my favorite meshes is Yellow Lantern & IPS's Rogue 1960s, so re-do the FF as though they had been active in the 1940s, 1950s, 1970s. 1980s, 1990s, or the present day. If you can figure out a way to fit them into 1930s pulps, go for it (fighting Cthulhu in the 1920s?)! Naitvalis is doing a "corrupted" version of the Freedom Force; why not take a theme and re-do as many of the characters as you can? Science fiction, heroic fantasy, planetary romance, medieval knights, Earth-3, magic universe, DC or Marvel Cinematic Universe, CW-verse, vampire-verse, 2099, 3000 AD... anything you can imagine. Or... what if you had been working for Irrational Games fifteen years ago, how would you have designed the FF characters? What other characters might you have created instead?

You might create an anniversary SFX, like a Freedom Force Rally, or make a "lost" level for either of the two games, or a Danger Room Map, or anything. There is a character called "Freedom Forcer", and little as been done with him... got any ideas? Last 4th of July I did my avatar (and Deadpool) in a Freedom Force themed costume, lets see what yours looks like done up the same way. With the time limit, maybe those who can't skin can get up with those who do, and collaborate on something.

The FF Museum's posting Glitch Girls gender swapped Freedom Force members reminds me that the newer members in FFv3R were never given the same treatment.
Then (as Benton points out) you could do one of the Freedom Force III characters.

As usual, there are few rules:
Post a picture of your work here so we can look at it, or post your work someplace we can get it, and bask in the approval... Even if you don't participate, stop by and comment. If you have ideas, mention them; you may inspire someone else.
Deadline on this one will be June 30th. I'm tempted to make it December 31st, and if I got enough feedback on it, I might yet. This is a special challenge, not like the holiday challenges I usually make, and we ought to do it up big.
Have fun; there is no point in doing this if you don't. Maybe learn a little something too, or try something new. We come around here because of our passion for the game, and our love for the community. We can learn new techniques, learn new skills, learn about each other (and ourselves, I hope). That is a lot of expect, and a lot to receive, from a silly game.
Oh yes, and free booze for DJ.
This sounds great, DG! Let me encourage folks to take a stab at FF III 70s designs, like these:

Man, Benton! I've never seen most of those pictures. Awesome!
There was some discussion about the FF III characters, and a few of them have been done. Still, some is not all...
Mmm...free booze...and what's this if you were there 15 years ago? I was there just not working for Irrational. Anyways...mmm...free booze...

Yes, you were there, but other than the free booze, how would have changed the characters? Heck, I was there, I just couldn't play the game.
But...free booozzzeee...<drools>
C'mon, multitask...
That Manbo 3000 is so cool!
Don't need to multitask, have a never seen before skin or two from a mod Tiobe and I were working on a few years back in which we planned to expand the Third Riech/time travel/alt universe idea into the games "modern"/60s time and how it changed the heroes. If I get the chance I'll post one tomorrow. Now back to...free booze...mmm...

To quote a somewhat older Liberty Lad, "For Free booooooooooze!"
Oh, I love this idea. Character redesigns have always been really intriguing to me, and Freedom Force character redesigns... well, it just sounds awesome. All the different things you could do with them-- different eras, Earth 3 dopplegangers, FF3, etc-- sound really really cool. :D
Also, if there's Earth 3 Freedom Force, I wonder what the Earth 2 versions would be like? It sounds similar to the "what if they were in the 40's" idea, but it does have a few distinctions. After all, some of the Earth 2 DC characters were different people who got their powers in different ways and had different costumes, despite sharing the same superhero names.
Anyway, it just sounds really neat. Though I've tried doing meshes and not really gotten the hang of it, I know I'm capable of doing skins. I'm going to try my hand at doing something before June 30th comes.
Alrighty, here's one of those skins I hinted at..this is Komet:
(http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/deathsjester/komet_zpsktc8birt.jpg) (http://s111.photobucket.com/user/deathsjester/media/komet_zpsktc8birt.jpg.html)
Now, Tiobe and my idea for all of this revolved around the cinematic scene where FF comes back from fighting Nuclear WInter in FFvTTR. In that you had them flying over the US and noticing everything had turned Nazi except for Freedom Fortress, right before they do the time travel to the past routine. Well, for the two of us that was a bit lame and needed fleshing out. So instead of FF landing at their Freedom Fortress, we envisioned them landing at the Freedom Fortress that fit the Nazi-based idea. Even more fun, we thought that it would be interesting to have the FF wander into the Fortress and run into Nazi versions of themselves there. We has this whole idea planned out that instead of creating a time machine in the Fortress that they'd have to create one with a resistance group and such. Anyways, Komet is the alt universe Nazi Bullet. You'll notice he's wearing pieces of Sky King's outfit with Nazi emblems attaches on it which is intentional. If you remember, in game Bullet mentions how he always looked up/idolized Sky King and based his original outfit slightly off of Sky King's outfit...well, in our world, Bullet/Komet killed Sky King (who stayed a good guy) and took his outfit for himself.
I reeeally like that skin/skope! The backstory, which is pretty brutal, is pretry darn cool.
Between the Nazi Force, Glob's stuff, and Nait's "Corruption" and "Destinies" lines, I'm loving this!
I love it DJ! Great story, great concept, and great skin. It really works. :D
Great work, DG! I particularly like 'Forcepool'! :lol:

I agree with Benton, you two made an amazing job. But while Forcepool is great I liked Manbot2 3000 a lot too. Amazing story and skin, DJ.
That skin and two others were created almost eight or nine years ago...I have just been holding on to them because Tiobe was involved in their creations...
Another of those never before seen ones that TIobe and I were working on before Tiobe disappeared...this is Kriegsshiff, the Nazi's Man o' War:
(http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/deathsjester/kriegsschiff_zpsbrfhi6bt.jpg) (http://s111.photobucket.com/user/deathsjester/media/kriegsschiff_zpsbrfhi6bt.jpg.html)
As you can tell, he's a high ranking Naval Officer (Kommodore in the Nazi navy). We hadn't really gotten a story together for him when I did him but we did want to change the gun out for something more like a speargun or such...we were tinkering with him when Tiobe vanished. Though if memory serves me right, we had planned on Sea Urchin to be part of the resistance for some reason.....had something to do with her and this character's dynamics...but can't remember...
Those alternate FF characters are amazing. Great work!
I might be able to help with switching the Gun out if you still want to.
Impressive work with Kriegsshiff, DJ. And I really liked the concept of Sea Urchin as his enemy (she is quite the rebel even is her default version).
Thanks for the offer, CB, but it's not really worth it. A combo of Tiobe not being around and only a very small group of characters skinne kind of puts this mod idea into the DOA pile. If I had more skins and ideas worked out, I might've tried to get a modder to work something up but I don't.
That Man o' War looks really cool. Very cool idea.
I love the design on Man O War. Just something about the blue skin contrasted with the solid white coat is just awesone.
Yeah, I agree. That's a lovely design. I really like the contrast. Man O' War looks darn sharp, even if he is a Nazi. :)
These were the last two from the mod that I had done:
(http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/deathsjester/herr_mechanish_zpsjgdn69eq.jpg) (http://s111.photobucket.com/user/deathsjester/media/herr_mechanish_zpsjgdn69eq.jpg.html)
This is Herr Mechanish, the alt universe Nazi version of Mr Mechanical. We had envisioned him as a member of the Todt group which was Hitler's civil engineering and science group.
(http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/deathsjester/blitzkrieg-regional%20leader_zpskkqe8n3e.jpg) (http://s111.photobucket.com/user/deathsjester/media/blitzkrieg-regional%20leader_zpskkqe8n3e.jpg.html)
This is how we viewed Blitzkrieg would look like when the FF run across him in the Nazi Freedom Fortress. We wanted him to lead the Nazi FF instead of Mentor or Minute Man (neither of which existed in this universe...though Frank Stiles exists as an old man in a prison camp...had planned a mission to break him out so the FF could use his knowledge to create the time machine or such) but we also wanted him to be the regional leader of the United States (note the arm band...that is the regional leader band that the Brownshirts wore).
And that is it....
From concept to execution, these all turned out fantastic. The Community really lost out on these.

What happens when people disappear...though I think I might have a Nazi Man-Bot sitting around somewhere but I think we decided not to use that version...will have to look...
I really like them. I'm sad this mod wasn't finished because it looks very interesting.
Was looking thru some old notes and ran across some of the loose ideas we had for the mod the above skins were going to be for.
Looks like we had the idea to have Komet appear in Sky King's outfit until the team completed the "Save Bullet" FF mission. After that, he'd appear in a costume like Bullet's to show a change in the time stream. Also, Pinstripe was going to be an Italian Nazi supporter and Law would be the successor to the Belle of Vichy.
Characters such as Quetzi, Green Genie, El Diablo, Order, Black Bird, and a few others were going to be either deceased or unpowered resistance fighters. Sokov and the Red Witch were members of the Resistance. Also looks like we were uncertain about Sea Urchin because I have notes about her being in the Resistance but I also have a Nazi alt version idea of her called Molluske.
The following characters we had come up with their Nazi counterparts names:
Minute Man - Sturmsoldat (wasn't a leader or Frank Stiles)
Ant - das Insekt
Tonbstone - Totenkopf
Man-Bot - das Maschine
Liberty Lad - H-J Held (H-J is short for Hitlerjugend, the kid military)
Eve - Naturemadchen
Alchemiss - die Hexe
Sea Urchin - Molluske?
Microwave - Todestrahl
Iron Ox - Panzerfaust
I've also got the names Partikeltreiber and das Gesetz but I've no idea who their FF equivelents are.
That's all I got folks. If MeshMatters was still around and I remembered my password (I don't), I might have more but this is all I got now.
It's a very interesting alternate reality tale, DJ. It's a shame you couldn't finish it. Anyway, thanks for sharing the info.
(https://i.imgur.com/1EQ6yMc.jpg)
I dunno, Iron Cow just sounds funny. Iron Oxette?
(https://i.imgur.com/E35DhyI.jpg)
Grenadier's Punisher with a body transplant from Bearded-In-Lair's Freedom Fighter. I've never been able to get the FF1 version to work, but this looks pretty good, if I do say so myself.
Now DJ's put the bar so high, the rest of us are really gonna have to work.
And the characters Partikeltreiber and das Gesetz are Supercollider and Law.
Very nice. Looks like more of a traditional soldier.
(https://i.imgur.com/rdR4XSX.jpg)
Using the Punisher Gren/Bearded scope, and creating a skin using the original Minuteman as a base, and some of Ink's ideas for his 2002 skins, here we have Minuteman 2017.
(https://i.imgur.com/vey7qgK.jpg)
V2, with more red.
Excellent work, Daglob. He looks like "Ultimate Minuteman".
Lovin' Minute Man, and how did I miss Iron Cow/Oxette? :thumbup:
Nice but wouldn't that be Minute Man 1995? Just saying. ;-)

Nah. Not nearly enough useless pouches and cross-hatches :P
These are looking pretty darn spiffy, Glob!
This was a private project, I just realized that it was appropriate for the challenge. My pouchtastic '90s version is in the works (hands still shake too much).
And I didn't mention that Iron Oxette is a kittbashed skin utilizing the original Iron Ox skin. The final version will be original.
Iron Oxette is fantastic, as is MM! :D
DJ, this sounds quite awesome! It's a shame it never came together.
BG, combine the fact Tiobe disappeared just as we started really fleshing things out, the fact I don't know a lick about modding, and the fact we were going to try and insert the missions into the original game while also changing some of those missions...we probably were biting off more than we could chew to begin with.
Great work, guys!
Too bad Tiobe left... both for the mod, of course, and for the truly shameful lack of Oscar Wilde references since.
Haha, well, perhaps, but it's still a shame, DJ. Of course, I miss Tiobe in general, and you're right Epi, there is a shameful lack of Oscar Wilde references these days. I'd praise you for plain speaking, but a man who can call a spade a spade should be forced to use one.

Thanks JJ, though I have no idea what you're talking about. ;)
Spyder, maybe some day, but not any time soon. :)
Apropos of nothing, anyone working on any of those 70s designs or some of their own?
I "might" do something 70s flavoured...if I can ever get my comp running again.
As for missing Tiobe...yeah, I miss him quite a bit too. Course, there are quite a few blokes and blokettes that I've worked with here that I miss. Guess that's what I get for hanging around too long.
:ph34r: I actually started a "Freedom Force" Rally FX, but time is just a bit on the limited side lately.

Awesome guys! :D I'm going to put a list up.
DJ, I'm just glad we don't have to miss you as well!
Wow, I am really out of practice.
Here is Bullet 2000. After years of using Super Speed provided by Energy X, Bullet has been reduced to a formless, Sentient, Energy, and has been forced to reside in one of Microwave's old Armors. His body no longer as fast as his mind, he has become borderline psychotic as he can no longer outrun the world around him.
(http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa49/Cyber_Burn_33/Bullet_2000_V01_zpsxgicq06s.jpg) (http://s199.photobucket.com/user/Cyber_Burn_33/media/Bullet_2000_V01_zpsxgicq06s.jpg.html)
This Skin uses Mr Pantz' Microwave BaseSkin, and pieces from Bullet and Microwave.
Looking good, CB and this is a very interesting, and a little disturbing backstory, it sounds like a perfect 90's take on Bullet.
BTW, where I can find this Microwave base? I have and idea about old MW for this challenge and it could be very useful.
I think it's going to end up at The FF Museum.
Until then, check your PM's. :D
(https://i.imgur.com/xCu6QGi.jpg)
Disco '70s Alchemiss. This is still kind of a work in progress, but you get the idea.
Ohh, very disco, very Dazzler, I like it!
Haha, great idea for a "seventified" Alche-miss, Daglob!
I took the design of another magic user's 1970s costume. Still a few things to do.
(https://i.imgur.com/JiNlXER.jpg)
This isn't quite an update to the '70s, this is an update of an old character to a modern mesh. Here we have Alchemiss Gren, basically Grenadier's Scarlet Witch with Tommy's Alchemiss hair and a few pieces from other Grenadier meshes.
How would some of the original characters look on a newer mesh? Anyone else want to try their hand?
Ohh, that's fantastic DG. Great work man!

Great idea and a nice work with her costume, DG.
Not sure I'm happy with him so far, but he's still got quite a ways to go before being finished. I still need to Alpha Enable the Goggles, and try to adjust the Particle Emitters and Streaks to see if they'll show the Black colors, and I'm thinking that the Belt may be a bit wide.
And don't get me started with everything I need to fix on the Skin. :banghead:

Me too.
Bullet looks GREAT, though.
Do you have a copy of Human Torch Black from FXForce? There may be a copy in your mail box... ;)
And, if it's the way you want to go, I can probably cut the helmet off the original mesh with Blender...
Cool stuff with the Grenadier based Alchemiss'.
And CB that Bullet is coming along nicely.
I really like what you guys were doing here.
I hadn't seen your bullet :doh: and I was working on him, luckily yours is an updated version whilst mine is just his usual look on a skope of flashwest269.

Shoulders were a nightmare but a bit of trial and error got them to a place I was happy with. The emblem is hand-drawn and uses about 6 layers I think. With a few touch ups here and there.
If everyone did an updated Bullet, that would mean that we have more bullets to play with. If ANYONE wants to do a character that has already been done-don't let that stop you. This is for fun, and I like both CB's and Deanjo's Bullets. I would have done him on a VX mesh, if I wasn't working on Disco Alchimiss and Pouchtastic Minuteman. Be like intersecting storm fronts-you aren't stealing someone's thunder, you are both basking in it (to really mix some metaphors).
This is NOT my work.

It's Minuteman TM by Texas Jack. Does anyone know of another updated version of the original meshes?
Vlandar has a pair of Microwave Meshes with Armor.
AA did a skope of Iron Ox.
AA also did a revamped Blackbird, and Macrowave, the female Microwave. Ink made a Sky King mesh, too. And was it Yellow Lantern that made the Belle of Vichy mesh?
Not an update persay but I made Sea Urchin on her sea horse as per the graphic that was in the game. Not sure how I'm going to approach the challenge yet. Not 70's though, I'm no good at making designs for that era. Thinking maybe of tackling a FF3 or Ultimate design though.

I believe Bobby69 has an updated Bullet Mesh, and an updated Microwave Mesh. Possibly Mentor as well.
There's also a VX Bullet Hex floating around by Flash_22798.
As for my Bullet Skope pictured above, I kinda went a little bit crazy on it, adding a few things here and there, and adjusting the Skin a bit. I'll try to post an updated pic soon.

Sorry for the double post, but I think I have my updated Rally FX finished (FFvt3R only, sorry). Would anyone be interested in trying it out, see if it's acceptable, or letting me know if I need to make any changes?
wow, Deanjo, I love the design on that MinuteMan Modern.
And BG, I'd love to play that mod :thumbup:
This still have some Irrational textures, but here's an updated bad guy:

Nicely done WB! :thumbup:
Looking good WB!
New member, probably won't be much involved. Loved this game to death. Recently working on a reskin of a board game to Super Heroes: very much in the Freedom Force mold (I've even used several of their characters). Not skins, just art, but here are some of those heroes I might have created:
CRUSHMORE
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4189/34300332182_afb303c1ba_n.jpg)
RIVETEER
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4190/34329487171_992a4a089f_n.jpg)
DEATH RIDE
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4171/34329498691_eeff6c817c_n.jpg)
Must...Have...Death Ride!!! :thumbup:
if we can get a German soldier on Tommy's motorcycle and you put the particle emitters on it...
Those all look pretty amazing!!
When i get home next week ill see what I can do for Death Ride!
Those are all great! I think Crushmore just made my day. :thumbup:

Looking back, it's not a German, just a "German" helmet. Gets even easier...
Crushmore has me in tears! :lol: :lol: :lol:
A fan of AoE3? :P
Great work on Pan, WB! He looks fantastic.
Welcome to the community Sam-XD! I LOVE those character concepts! Are those Rob Waters pieces? Where did you find them?
I agree with the rest of the gang, Crushmore is one of my new favorite things! Seeing him raises the questions: can he change shape to capture the powers of the other faces on Rushmore or are there several more of him running around out there? :lol:

If he can, the Lincoln one would have axes for hands and have a liking towards slaying certain undead :P
Those are very cool, Sam-2XD! Death Ride in particular.

LOL! He does have sort of a Ben Grimm look. :-)
Excellent character visuals, Sam-XD. Fair warning, though:
Crushmore is likely to be a CW teen superpowered/romance/drama series set in South Dakota soon enough. They are running low on ideas... ;-p
Here is the updated evolution of The Bullet. Starting in the 1980's, where his Energy X begins to over power him, through the 2000's where the Energy x has completely devoured his physical form, requiring him to wear a Containment Suit at all times. There are three Skopes, with each Skope having variant Skins (But the Skins still need some touching up).

Awesome! Loving the 90's Bullet suit.
Cool stuff CB! I really like the 80s design, and the 90s one is neat too especially the floating armour bits.
It's great to see you making skins again, Cyber :thumbup:
Well, here is Minuteman '95.
(https://i.imgur.com/6q6Ukfu.jpg)
He has the original Minuteman's face. I intended to put stars on his shoulder belts, but they did weird things when I did that. Haven't given up yet.
Ohh, I really love that, CB! I love the concept, and I love all three skins. I think 1990s Bullet is my favorite. He's got a great look. :D
Haha, DG, that's perfect. Only he needs yet more pouches! :D
I've been mulling over a 1970s Minuteman. I see him taking a few cues from the Spirit of 76. Keep the tri-corner hat and mask. Add a cape. The rest of his costume would be a puffy shirt open to the low chest and a wide collar, a patriotic medallion (not sure exactly what should be on it but it would be powered, probably protective and take the place of his bracers), bell bottom plum smugglers for the pants. The Minuteman staff would be transparent. Of course, he would need side burns and maybe a Fu Manchu mustache.
If I can make the time I will take a stab at this mesh. Trying my hand at 1970s Law and Order currently.

Everything looks great in this thread. I'm excited for those unreleased Freedom Force designs.

It feels good to be Skinning again as well. I'm hoping to get at least one of my "Minute Man" Skopes finished and Skinned tonight, or my "Tombstone". Either way, I'd be happy, but I don't know if that will happen (Especially since I started Skoping Cyborgs to compliment Daglob's Cyborg Army).

I can't wait to see it! Tombstone is one of my fav's in :ffvstr: :wub:

And tonight didn't quite go as planned. Hopefully after finals are finished this week, I'll be able to take some time to get some work done on these.
School first, silly stuff later.
We can wait.

Brings up a good point. What are we going to do with all of these?
Alright..back in biz for me with the comp so hopefully by the end of the week or next week...depends on how well I get accustomed to the new mouse and keyboard....I'll have the 70s Man-Bot together...
Edit:...or some other character seeing as I can't find all the pieces I had set aside to make M-B for some reason. I'll do something though...
Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting a future version of Man-Bot:
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4187/34576506676_e1060fcae3_o.png)
"Sorry, I have to do this."
Sometime after the events of :ffvstr:, Man-Bot gains more control of his powers, allowing him to wear this lighter alternative despite his ever-increasing reserves of energy x.
Credit to Courtnall6 for the beard and the hair (from his Aquaman skins).
Whew! Haven't done a skin in a while. Felt good.
That looks neat. And slightly scary.
And this appears to be Zuludelta's modern version of Minuteman. Not sure when I got it (says it was at NPI), but here he is.
(https://i.imgur.com/y90hymN.jpg)
Ouflah, I like it! The beard is an especially cool addition, really gives Manbot a different look.
Daglob that's a really nice design Zulu put together. However it doesn't really bring to mind Minute Man for me. Makes me think more of an adult Liberty Lad ala Nightwing.
Throw a tri-corner hat on him. 😁

:rolleyes:
Ouflah, that's really cool! Great concept and really nice design! Is that on one of the effects meshes? Having energy streaming off of him would be perfect!
DG, neat! What a great discover. :D
If he was on Kenn X's Flame On Action Human torch scopes, he would emit energy only during certain actions.
Thanks guys! :D
Cool Minuteman!
Well right now he's on just the NoCapeMan mesh, but I agree it would be pretty cool if he was radiating energy.
Lovely work, guys! really enjoying the different sensibilities displayed here.
BTW, Zulu's MM reminds me of another updated MM which was indeed supposed to be Nick Craft (Liberty Lad) rather than Frank Stiles.
There is an Ultimate Minuteman on a Deathstroke mesh.
Still a work in progress, but:

Hah! I like it! It's a simpler change but I think it's really fitting.
Ooh, nice. I love the duel-wielding. :thumbup:
Yeah, I love the two staves. That's a really neat idea, CB!
Thanks guys, I still want to re-skin everything, but my limited abilities have prevented me from doing so (Especially on the Staff). :banghead:
He looks great, it's a nice concept, CB!
(https://i.imgur.com/FlG2ljb.jpg)
Crosspost.
That's nice, :thumbup:
I'm not even finished with the Base Skin yet. :banghead:
(https://i.imgur.com/VxkRJLp.jpg)
So, the Glow texture was the wrong size, and changing that "fixed" the skin. This is Male Cape Midboots with the mask from Alchemiss. I tried to get the hair from Male Hair Bangs, but neither Nifscope nor Blender will load it.
Any ideas?
Not off the top of my head, but if you want to send it my way, I'd be glad to take a look at it for you.
(And if you want to hit me with a few reminders of anything else that I may have promised you, that would help as well :P )
Quote from: Cyber Burn on May 28, 2017, 11:02:32 PM
Not off the top of my head...
You don't have hairbangs?
Nah, once I started receding, I just had everything shaved off. :P
Besides, in the California Desert, the Wind just kept blowing my hair everywhere. I had to get rid of the Bangs.
Further proof, if needed, that environment shapes us. Here, in the Great White North(tm), I need long hair and a thick beard, for protection against the Cold(tm), man-eating mosquitos and man-eating (our wildlife lacks imagination, alas) bears. In that last case, however, it should be noted that the protection doesn't come from the thickness of the hairy coating, but from being able to pass off as one of their own.
Heh. You know they say there's no way to grow nor stop hair from growing and it's one case were I think that's misinformation to sell a billion dollar industry and the reason was living in the mountains. First off we know for fact hair can stop growing. Pour some acid on your head and see if your hair grows back. But in the mountains my hair grew fast and out of control. Later I thought about and tried an experiment were I rubbed crushed ice on my head daily. Sure enough my hair grew long fast to compensate for the cold. Hence people who saw me a year later could only conclude I must have extensions since it shouldn't be possible to grow hair that fast.
Anyways sorry about my delayed release. Fixing two pcs for people, a printer and a door so my time is a bit consumed. Computress should be done by next weekend.
(https://i.imgur.com/2Gf0yLg.jpg)
Thanks to Cyber Burn, Alche-Mister here now has bangs.
Still a very early WIP:
Microwave in the 70's.
(http://i1126.photobucket.com/albums/l610/JohnJr_FF/Microwave%20wip_zpssxefdcmp.jpg)
That's impressive.
Haha, Alcheman/Alchemister looks great, DG! That costume looks rather different on a dude. :lol:
Wow JJ! I'm already loving 70s Microwave! He's looking great!
Yeah, but blame Glitch Girl.
Quote from: daglob on June 04, 2017, 07:54:47 PM

I absolutely agree. I really can't wait to see him when he's finished.
Here's Minute Man 2000, still very much a WIP:
(http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa49/Cyber_Burn_33/Minute%20Man%202000s%20V3_zps7ddki800.jpg) (http://s199.photobucket.com/user/Cyber_Burn_33/media/Minute%20Man%202000s%20V3_zps7ddki800.jpg.html)
A very big "
Thank You!" to Daglob for Skinning the Staff for me, the Gold is a perfect contrast to the Red, and there is no way that I could have done that on my own.
Really looking forward to the final version, CB! With the colour I'm getting a Red Coat vibe (that's what Griffon's British MM skin was called, wasn't it?)
While I had originally thought about really differentiating between them, in the end, I decided stick more to how Irrational had done there Minute Man (The Standard Blue, Red, Green, and Nightmare). I just happened to start with the Red, since I'm wearing a Red Shirt today. :P
DG and CB,
Amazing work with Alche-Mister and Minuteman 2000's, this topic just gets better and better.
I'm really liking all of these, you guys.
The staves on Minuteman look fantastic! So nice and clean, and yet, they still look like they could deliver a powerful "THWACK!"
I'm really enjoying the android design for Microwave. Such a good evolution of the character and he's still immediately recognizable.
Alche-mister gave me a good laugh (in a good way!). Imagine him turning into Entropy :lol:
Since I'm the one who made the challenge, I've decided to extend the deadline to December 31st. I don't think I'll get much of an argument.
Meanwhile there's this:
(https://i.imgur.com/MguRO74.jpg)
It was done for Valandar's Crimson Dynamo by Tortuga.
I can live with that.
Almost finished with Minute Man, just have the Portraits left to do. And I'm adding a few extra Skins...Just because.
i see this anniversary thing just now, ha! really nice idea Daglob! i really like many of the characters here, the nazi-verse characters of the Jester are absolutely interesting, also because they suggest the idea that they have fought versus the "Ally troopers" that maybe could have their own heroes...or in this case villains? ;).
Also i like the work of the Daglob on "Bullets", the skins of Windblown, and the minuteman of Ouflah, but again there is so much nice material here.
In regard of my series, "Destinies" and "Corruption" i have already bored this forum here http://freedomreborn.net/forums/index.php?topic=58096.30 but for who want the long story short, basicaly the idea was to create a plot for a possible sequel, a freedom force 3, or a 2.5 mod :),
from one side we have "destinies" characters, the freedom force of the future, i mean their future around the start of the 80's, this are the good guys. On the other side there are the "Corruption" characters, the bad guys, they are from an alternate reality(all is explained better on that aforementioned post...i hope).
So the whole story start when the Destinies guys find themselves trapped in the Corruption reality, they must fight their way out advancing in the regions dominated by the Various "Corrupted heroes"each one has their own tugs and perils. All the characters i have done at this point are already downloadable here, (oh exept the valiant volunteers i think i release them in a pack with all the troopers) http://epimethee.webfactional.com/ff/naitvalis/ i really don't think is necesary i re-post all the pictures.
However i want thank again whoever have show interest in this .
Ok, here we have our Standard Blue Minute Man, our Red Variant, our Green Alternate, and our Special Grey Costume.
(http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa49/Cyber_Burn_33/Minute%20Man%202000s%20V4_zpslz5knt6h.jpg) (http://s199.photobucket.com/user/Cyber_Burn_33/media/Minute%20Man%202000s%20V4_zpslz5knt6h.jpg.html)
However, not previewed, are the Nightmare Version of Minute Man, and the Hidden Mystery Skin. :ph34r:
Again, a very big THANK YOU! to Daglob for the beautiful battle Staffs.
Very nice CB. I might like the green one best.
Quote from: Podmark on June 11, 2017, 05:57:36 PM
Very nice CB. I might like the green one best.
Thanks Pod, the Green and Grey were originally going to be switched, but I just couldn't get the Green one to look right. Then again, the design in general didn't quite come out the way it looked in my head. :P
Now that's a tough act to follow...
(https://i.imgur.com/eBJ1DXQ.jpg)
Managed to get most of the stars right. For some reason, the pouch on the right calf doesn't show in CTool.
Amazing work with the Minutemen, guys.
I 'm almost finished with 70's Microwave and I should be able to release him in the next days.

Coming along nicely. I quite like the blue padding.
You've really nailed the 70s feel with this Microwave, John. Kudos!

Lousy Photobucket! Can't see anything! :banghead:
Yeah, Photobucket has decided to do away with free accounts. That is not what they say, but it is what they mean. A lot of people are apparently deciding that the ad revenue on a free account is not worth it. After the way Photobucket has been treating their free accounts the past few months, I don't see any reason to want a paid account. How long before they decide that the lowest-level paid account they offer isn't worth the trouble?
A Photobucket account with 3rd party hosting (so I can post pics) is $40.00 a month, $400.00 a year...

That's why I'm changing most of my stuff over to Imugr right now...
Though oddly enough I have yet to see my stuff get that Update pic slapped on them and I've had a free account with Photobucket for ages...interesting...
I've had one for ten years (they said so when I cancelled it). They are probably taking each account by name or date you created the account. Or some other criteria. :)

Hmmm...had mine for more than ten years for sure....pushing fifteen or twenty by now....interesting. Maybe it has to do with how much one has in their account...I often go in and delete out old pics in one fell swoop...who knows....still moving over to imugr...and look, I even got a new avatar space holder thingie....
Thanks for the kind words, guys. I'm glad you liked Microwave.
Microwave in the 70's is now available for download in my Yahoo Group, I hope you find him useful. And I wish to say I huge "Thank you!" to Daglob for starting this topic, it's a great way to celebrate the anniversary and I'm glad I could contribute.
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/cavernadosilencio/info
I love the completed Microwave! Great work JJ!
Neat Minuteman, DG, feels very 90s/2000s.
Well folks, can people send me their 70s offerings? You can send them to bentongrey @ yahoo.com. I've got JJ's Microwave, but I know there are others I haven't gotten.
I've never seen a skin for this Bobby69 mesh. Until now...
(http://i.imgur.com/CHnQVpq.jpg)
Still working out some things: I believe the hands may be uncovered; it looks like there are loose sleeves.
Oh man, that's cool!
What mesh is that?
Bulletnew69. I'm not sure where it is these days; maybe one of the Freedom Force Yahoo Groups. https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Bobby69meshes6/files
I've thought about making a challenge within the challenge, and see how may different skins for this mesh we can get.
Any takers?
Actually, if I have any time, I was looking at his "Male_Microwave69" Mesh. :)
This is still going on. I haven't done much lately, but I've been sick.
Oh man... Too bad a bunch of pic links in this thread are out. I absolutely love FF redesigns.
I actually was working on a completely revamped FF universe before I stopped skinning forever.
A younger group, Teen Titans-esque. Liberty Lad was the leader. Deja-Vu was a time hopping, wisecracking good guy. Tombstone was electric Ghost Rider/Evel Knievel/Elvis, and Alche-Miss was his pinup witch girlfriend.
I can't remember them all. I ought to dig them up. Oh! The Ant was a psychic queen ant who controlled a ton of other ants to form the body of an ant person that would also turn into a giant ant made up of all the smaller ants.
Anyhow, these are cool! I hope to see more!
And get well soon!
Found my preview pic of Minute Man, though there were still one or two Skins not shown here. And When I get a chance, I'll try and post the Bullet Pics too.

I really like that blue Minuteman. The way the "M" also looks like the straps in the original costume is really neat.
I've replaced my pictures lost when Photobucket decided to hold them for ransom.
(https://i.imgur.com/NWZAGHf.jpg)
I mentioned this, then didn't post a pic. This is Ultimate Minute Man, hex by RedBlackDeath, skin by Robert.
I know, I kind of took the summer off, but we've only got three months left.
Oh wow, thank you daglob!
I loved going back through this thread! These are all so cool.
EDIT:
I forgot to write, those Multiple Minute Men above my post, with their super pale skin, to me looked like a series of Minutebots. Especially the green one.
Interesting!
Wow, that's fancy! I love the detail and texturing.

Thanks Ouflah. Funny thing is, the "M" turned out far different from what I had originally wanted. I actually ended up having to improvise a little (A whole Lot). Plus, I wanted the color schemes to match the original concept, but the Green didn't work out, which is why I went with Gray. I still wanted to do something with Green though, which is what you see now.

Work In Progress: Man O'War in the Freedom Force Cinematic Universe.
The picture quality is not great, but any guesses as to who I cast (photoskinned) as FF's curmudgeonly aquatic hero (No, not Connery, though that is who I would cast for an animated movie, if I had my way)?
Very nice Doc, kind of looks like me after a few days of not shaving. :P
Here's the Evolution of Bullet, plus each Skope has Alternate Skins as well.

Microwave Mk7... I have no idea who did this.
I'm really enjoying looking at your cool interpretations, guys!
And Dag, thanks for posting these old skins. I had never seen the two Microwaves.
I did the Freedom Forcers as Lanterns.
(https://i.imgur.com/QVnifdu.jpg)
Any other ideas for other color lanterns?
Huh, I kinda figured Minute Man as a Green Lantern. Definitely agree with the others, though!
I'm kind of unsure what El Diablo or Man-Bot would get. Heck, I'm not even sure what most of the villains would get. Lord Dominion would def get a Yellow Ring, though :P
Is Super Collider as a Red Lantern a little too obvious?

It seemed like Bullet would be the obvious choice for a Green Lantern, him being a pilot and all. I considered that Minuteman could be a Blue Lantern, but he has a staff; probably the only Indigo Lantern who uses his staff as a weapon...
Man-Bull as a Red Lantern?
El Diablo would get a red ring, Dominion probably an orange, Man-bot...hmm...maybe a blue or perhaps a rare white.
Kind of off subject, since this has nothing to do with Lanterns. But I had made a Rally FX for the Anniversary Challenge quite a while ago, but had never done anything with it. So, on that note, if anyone is interested, it's now available to anyone who is interested.

Though I should mention that it is FFvt3R exclusive.

Great work with the thugs, CB!
This is something I'm working for a joint project with Benton.
The Forcedroid, FF's answer to the Amazo/Super Adaptoid trope.
Who created him? And why?
Stay tuned to the answers ;)

Oh man I already love it. It's got all my gears turning thinking about who and what this means for the ff's :thumbup:

That is so COOL! I don't know why that concept has never come to me before, but that is really neat!
And a joint project with Benton, you say? Do I smell PCTales?
Oh man, that's so awesome. I always liked the Super Adaptoid-- it's awesome to see a Freedom Force villain like that. :thumbup:
Thanks, guys. I'm glad you liked the "Forcedroid". And I need to thanks Daglob for sending me Bullet's helmet, I wouldn't be able do to it without his help.
Y'know,if you gave him Manbot feet...

... He would look great. But he have only the powers/accessories of Minuteman, El Diablo and Bullet.
At least for now ...

Here is another modern Bullet I picked up someplace. It doesn't have a readme, so I can't give proper credits for this interesting take on updating the character.
Proof that Bullet is one of the more popular of the original meshes:
(https://i.imgur.com/QWoUbgQ.jpg)
Skins by Ink, Da Glob, Tortuga, Atomic Robot, Alberik, Doug Knous, Dave Harlan, and others (bet Atticboy did Cobra Bullet).
And, frankly, I don't know where these came from:
(https://i.imgur.com/IsOBa3x.jpg)
CHIBI FORCE!
Wow! Didn't know Bullet was that popular :o
And Chibi Force is fantastic! Hahahaha
Didn't JJ do an awesome job on our Forcedroid? I love the design he came up with. Simple, but perfectly fitting and pretty much instantly recognizable. His instincts were right on here.
DG, I LOVE all of those Bullets! That is a great image, and I also had no idea there were that many versions! Man, that makes me want to do a multidimensional Bullet story, or a 'Batmen of all nations' type tale. I can see it now...
(https://i.imgur.com/9lj2glC.jpg)
There seem to be a few Supercolliders
(https://i.imgur.com/gdHaovx.jpg)
But Microwave may be the most popular of them all.
Wow, those are great! I especially get a kick out of the Microwave Supercollider.

I absolutely love all of these compilations you are doing of the freedom force skins, DG!
Its hard to believe how much content has been made for this game sometimes.
(https://i.imgur.com/XyNhjrX.jpg)
What is amazing to me is the creativity and imagination that the early players had when turning out some of the characters, like Thor, Iron Man, Batwoman, and Power Girl for meshes that were not intended for these characters. They made them work until a dedicated mesh came along.
We worked with what we had...just like the skinning jackets on male_basic because we had no jacket meshes...
(https://i.imgur.com/UkoBZxc.jpg)
(https://i.imgur.com/yLnJyN3.jpg)
Amazing number of variations on those characters!
That Mini-Me Manbot cracks me up. And, who knew how well Microwave's studies at the Tony Stark School of Design would turn out? ;-)
(https://i.imgur.com/Eiw2gbn.jpg)
(https://i.imgur.com/vW1Bghu.jpg)
Lessee... who's left? Iron Ox only has a couple of skins (since he is really Male Heavy), and there are Shadow and The Ant... one or two for Timemaster, and Deja Vu as an AIM agent...
(https://i.imgur.com/uCIe0h6.jpg)
(https://i.imgur.com/OW8iZpN.jpg)
Having trouble with Shadow; some of the skins are bleached out. I'll work on it.
(https://i.imgur.com/UmUQDb0.jpg)
It's really crazy seeing all these different skins that were done on the original meshes. Skinners back then were very creative. I wouldn't trade then for now with our highly skoped accurate meshes but it's fun to look back.
Quote from: daglob on October 20, 2017, 04:45:52 PM

Liberty Lad? Were there alternates for Mentor, or did I miss them?
These are a hoot and a half to look at. :-)
You must have missed Mentor; he's back a ways.

Elvises and Dirty Harry...
As I said, all this creativity and ingenuity is impressive. While I included some of my skins, this is a salute to those who came before. As someone else said, we stand on their shoulders.
Wait...people stand on my shoulders?!? No wonder my back hurts!
I've always had so much respect for our Community's Content Creators, but this really just ups that respect to a whole new level. But on that note, there are a lot of those that don't look familiar, I don't recognize them, so I might be putting in some Requests when things calm down.
Beware!!! Ego trip!!! - What's really cool, is actually seeing a few of my own Skins mixed in there. How awesome is that.
@ John Jr. - ForceDroid looks awesome, I can't wait to see what you and Benton are cooking up.
@ DJ - If you want us off your shoulders, then put the Vodka away, and get off the ground. :P

Oh man, I love you pulling these out of the woodwork.
I used to use the irrational meshes a lot, back in the day. Actually, I spot a few of mine in these pics.
A bunch of random civilians and thugs and stuff. Admittedly lots were just recolours and changing the face a bit.
(Did a really poor one on Red Oktober, that I'm only mentioning because you haven't posted her yet... http://sjhftac.comicgenesis.com/freedom/baba.html)
Some of these are so creative though, wow! Look at that Phantasm cartoon skin!
EDIT:
Whoa, spotted this Blackjack (plus) one.
http://sjhftac.comicgenesis.com/freedom/photon.html
Irrational had dope meshes.
I wasn't really planning to post the FFv3R variants; in a way, any of these will go on the appropriate 3R mesh, and there were so many dedicated meshes by the time 3R premiered that few new skins were done for the built-in FFv3R meshes... Then again, I did post Detourneme's Oconnor/Tombstone scope... I dunno, it would include the version of Marvel's Leader for the Blitzkrieg mesh... Maybe.
I've been hoping to see a little more participation.
Heheh. There are a few other ffv3r reskins, but i guess the community had built up enough to make custom meshes by then. No need to reskin the irrational meshes. Although the Barbara Eden Green Genie skin was pretty great!
I looked through the built-ins for FFv3R and decided to go ahead and post the reskins for them. Besides Barbara Eden there are the ones by Unkoman (3 at last count), and a couple of others. I was only going to do the heroes, but I find several for the crooks (Timemaster and Blitzkreig, for instance). And this is about celebrating Freedom Force, so I really have no reason not to.
wow, that's a lot of variants!
Thanks for sharing daglob, I really enjoyed seeing them, I' didn't know that the original meshes had so many alternate skins done.
What's really interesting is how many of the Rorschach ones used the same mask faces I used on an animated version when FFVTTR came out....so weird...
Something a little bit different:

The one with the Pistol was a quickie and was only meant to be a Template for For Nazis using single-handed weapons, which was why I didn't release him.
I was looking at the one with the Thompson.
(https://i.imgur.com/WYbah7M.jpg)
This one has Afghan Ant's revision of Iron Ox.
(https://i.imgur.com/FQZIZxS.jpg)
It's true, there was less need to use defaults after 3R came out, but I'm glad you are posting them!
There are some really cool ones I've never seen before! Tricolour! I remember now that I thought she had a very cool mesh.
What's that weird red faced Blitzkrieg? That's so familiar.
...wait, did I skin that? What is that from?
It's an alien scientist skinned by some guy called Unkoman...
(https://i.imgur.com/YhU4Juu.jpg)
What is really funny is that not a single one of my skins over the years that weren't direct reimages of FF charactes were ever on FF's character meshes. I always used the male_basic, cape, female, ect ones that came with the game. Weird...
(https://i.imgur.com/j9jLv1X.jpg)
(https://i.imgur.com/kka1Wp7.jpg)
I see many I'll be requesting (once I double-check which ones I do have). I'll just be patient until it looks like they've all been shown.
Well, I thought I had posted all the reskins, but while checking out the Yahoo Groups I may have come upon some more. I'll have to check and get back on that.
I think this is all:
(https://i.imgur.com/L6wTbWc.jpg)
If you have something I've missed, please post a picture of it.
I didn't post Nait's Corruption meshes; you should just go and get them so you can enjoy them yourself.
Great finds, Daglob!

Forcedroid 2.0?
I think he's good this way, DG, thanks.
I'll probably play a little with the skin and release him as an alternate Forcedroid (since the one I'll be using with Benton can only have the powers/costumes of Minuteman, Diablo and Bullet). Maybe I'll give him blue skin and swimming keyframes too :)
We have only two months to finish up whatever we do.
Of course, like any other challenge, if you have something ready a little beyond the deadline, post it so we can enjoy it.
Oh... I once did an unimpressive Subterrestrial recolour.
http://sjhftac.comicgenesis.com/freedom/core.html
It is very boring.
As well as an original skin meant to be a leader of the SubTs, in the vein of Hulk foe Tyrannus.
http://sjhftac.comicgenesis.com/freedom/subterraneo.html
Does that count?
I think I've done a few other really bad skins on some of those meshes. I know I once did a weird Joker on the "Frank Stiles" mesh, but, hopefully, those are all lost to time now.
EDIT:
Oops, I guess there's a Poison Ivy, too.
http://sjhftac.comicgenesis.com/freedom/poisonivy.html
I've been working on something else, but I've got your work Unko (and a couple of others) and they will get posted soon.
I have that Poison Ivy on my hard drive. I don't know why she didn't get posted.

Man, that is nice. :thumbup:
A bit of a blend between Microwave and Man-Bot. Still very much a WIP.

That is pretty good. Should be really interesting when you are finished.

This is to inaugurate the Freedom Force 15th Anniversary Challenge.
There are many possibilities:
Redesign the original Freedom Force or Freedom Force vs. The Third Reich characters. One of my favorite meshes is Yellow Lantern & IPS's Rogue 1960s, so re-do the FF as though they had been active in the 1940s, 1950s, 1970s. 1980s, 1990s, or the present day. If you can figure out a way to fit them into 1930s pulps, go for it (fighting Cthulhu in the 1920s?)! Naitvalis is doing a "corrupted" version of the Freedom Force; why not take a theme and re-do as many of the characters as you can? Science fiction, heroic fantasy, planetary romance, medieval knights, Earth-3, magic universe, DC or Marvel Cinematic Universe, CW-verse, vampire-verse, 2099, 3000 AD... anything you can imagine. Or... what if you had been working for Irrational Games fifteen years ago, how would you have designed the FF characters? What other characters might you have created instead?
(https://i.imgur.com/0LTKWxF.jpg)
Alchemiss E3
You might create an anniversary SFX, like a Freedom Force Rally, or make a "lost" level for either of the two games, or a Danger Room Map, or anything. There is a character called "Freedom Forcer", and little as been done with him... got any ideas? Last 4th of July I did my avatar (and Deadpool) in a Freedom Force themed costume, lets see what yours looks like done up the same way. With the time limit, maybe those who can't skin can get up with those who do, and collaborate on something.
(https://i.imgur.com/xdUoLl3.jpg)
Forcerpool
The FF Museum's posting Glitch Girls gender swapped Freedom Force members reminds me that the newer members in FFv3R were never given the same treatment.
Then (as Benton points out) you could do one of the Freedom Force III characters.
(https://i.imgur.com/YauMscV.jpg)
Manbot2 3000
As usual, there are few rules:
Post a picture of your work here so we can look at it, or post your work someplace we can get it, and bask in the approval... Even if you don't participate, stop by and comment. If you have ideas, mention them; you may inspire someone else.
Deadline on this one will be June 30th. I'm tempted to make it December 31st, and if I got enough feedback on it, I might yet. This is a special challenge, not like the holiday challenges I usually make, and we ought to do it up big.
Have fun; there is no point in doing this if you don't. Maybe learn a little something too, or try something new. We come around here because of our passion for the game, and our love for the community. We can learn new techniques, learn new skills, learn about each other (and ourselves, I hope). That is a lot of expect, and a lot to receive, from a silly game.
Oh yes, and free booze for DJ.
do these meshes exist?
1. Alchemiss Effects ------------------ http://www.alexff.com/skinmesh_search.php?name=Alchemiss+Effects&Button1=Go%21
2. Deadpool Muscular Updated ----- http://web.archive.org/web/20060113125344/http://newpowerinc.com/paradoxpages/paradoxmain.htm
3. Man-Bot2 3000 ------------------- I think this was by Bearded, but I don't remember if it was publicly released or not.
(On a side note, did I ever finish Skoping the Particle Emitters on this one for you Daglob? And was there something else I was supposed to do?)
(https://i.imgur.com/YjCIvXF.jpg)
I KNEW there was a Doc Doom around here someplace. The reason Machine Man is in there is because so far as I can remember, it is the only skin done for FFv3R's Nocapeman.
The emitters on MB3K work great. I wish I did know who did him 'cuz I would like to release him.
Not sure if we're going for completeness in skins for the built-in meshes, but I found a few that daglob didn't have included.

I hadn't gotten to those yet (the rest of Mr. Mechanical/Flamebot), and now I don't have to. ;) I'm not sure I have the kid reading Mad Magazine...
And I'm pretty sure I have the guy with the Shemp hairstyle. Wonder how I missed him?
You *should* have the Madboy, as well as Sweater boy, as they were both in the first Civilians pack that Unko put out. It also had the workaholic male civilian, which you had in your montage pic.
And the thug in question is the Uncredible Duke. I can't remember if that skin lived at EF or FXForce.
I believe that I have a handful of Re-Skins (and maybe a couple of Skopes as well) that I don't think I ever previewed or released. I'll have to double check on that.
Ugh...even that Arcade on the MR Mechanical robot I did for Prem looks horrid nowadays....AAAAAAHHHH!! You dredging up all my ugly skins...:P

That's because I don't seem to have them.
Anyone who does have the skins, please send them to me. I'll give you my e-mail address if you wish.
Neros, I'd be glad to, but I'm having computer trouble and can't look at the screen for more than a few minutes without getting a headache. I was intending to get some together for Panther Gun as well, but everything on my monitor is twice as wide and half as tall as it's supposed to be and slightly out of focus as well. What I'm thinking of doing is posting them on Mediafire and post a link
here at FR when I do. Probably not in the next few days, but hopefully soon. I'm getting my laptop fixed up to use, but I'll still have to go through the desktop to find the skins.
More by Flash_22798. Freedom Force 2.0:
(https://i.imgur.com/XxOm3lK.jpg)
Don't have them either.
Hmm... a Magneto-like Mentor looks like the perfect material for the Nightmare Freedom Force.
I'd like all of them, but I'm a content hoarder.
I actually found the Pics here: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Data_Back_Up_Part_1/photos/photostream
But, I'm sure the Files are on a Disk somewhere.
Interesting take. Liberty Lad's big head looking exactly like Minute Man's is creepin' me out though. Ha ha ha.
I loooooove all those Mr. Mechanicals. So awesome.
Fun Fact: Both those kids were based on outfits I actually owned and wore as a kid.
So, one month left. Get creative and show us the products of your imagination :D.
So, I'm working on this but it's almost half way through the month and I'm going realllly slow. Relearning everything, and the skins aren't up to snuff yet. I haven't done this sort of photoshop work in a long as heck time.
On the other hand, I'm pretty excited about finally getting some of these designs done.
So here's a glance at a not quite finished, redesigned Alchemiss. Tombstone is also on his way. I may or may not do more, but these two are getting released for sure.
Spoiler
(https://i.imgur.com/zKjNSRr.jpg)

It's good to see Alchemiss with some Halloween-themed colors in her costume, Jacqueline O'Lantern style. :)
Great design, Unko! A very creative take on Alchemiss
I really like it, but is she missing a mouth?
Ha ha, that's why it's unfinished. Haven't done the mouth, hat, and some shading here and there. Looking for one more piece to hex too...
Glad you like, thank you, thank you.
PS: Who is Jacqueline O'Lantern? Like the name. Hoping for a pumpkin themed Jackie O.
Sorry it took me so long, but I had a ton of issues with Yahoo.

C'mon, people... anybody else? Time keeps on slippin'...
Freedom Force's back up Soldiers (also known as more cannonfodder). The Extras aren't mine, and this is far from finished. The design is based off an old Firestorm Skin that I wanted to see updated.

Closer to the design I pictured, but I may still switch out the Mesh.

I have a copy of that old Freedom Forcer skin, and your update looks good. Why not have both? Minor but obvious differences could make telling rank easy.

Thanks Unko! :D
Here's Firestorm's Skin, his Skin with the Belt added, and then my Skin for comparison. The Freedom Forcer Skin has always been one of my favorite Skins, so while I did want to update it, I still wanted to give it it's own identity.
(https://i.imgur.com/Gqxteju.jpg)
I meant both versions you did. I like the version with the shield.
With the finished extras.

Great work with all of the Freedom Forcers, CB. The shield guy is specially good.
Awesome work, Cyber!
Those guys look great! :thumbup:
C'mon guys and gals, we're almost to the deadline.
I had forgotten I had this one. I think I had originally made this Skin for Bearded, but I really liked it, so I decided to add it to my Cannonfodder collection. I just don't think I ever previewed it before. On a side note though, the extras on this are from Daglob's (phantom_mp) Skin located at Alex's Freedom Fortress.
(https://i.imgur.com/Hnk3hhF.jpg)
I really like that skin, the jlu base works really well. I need to use that base for more things I think.
Thanks, DeanJo. If I remember correctly, I may have modified the Base Skin slightly, I'll look through my files to check, and if I did, I'd be glad to send it your way.
I stumbled across this by accident, but really liked them, and figured they could kind of fit in here. They were found here: https://doornik1142.deviantart.com/art/Minute-Man-1-217767687

I like that, look at all those decoys (what the troops on your side should be called instead of cannon fodder.)
Nah, this would be more of a "Clean Up" Squad, than they would be "Decoys". I'm hoping to finish the actual "Decoy" troops up sometime this weekend. :lol:
Amazing work, CB! Just imagine this guys fighting an army of Deja clones on the Rumble Room.
Not quite finished, but the decoys...I mean the cannononfodder...I mean the initial strike force, is here:

Can't wait to download these guys, Cyber!
They look so cool! :thumbup:
Well, my back immobilized me for awhile so I didn't get finished with some stuff.

This is a scope for the 1930s version of Minuteman. I also had an idea for an old west version on The Vigilante mesh.
Ah well, maybe another time.
Oooo, pulp FF.
Love where you are going with that.
Exactly my sentiment!
Do we keep working? Real Life has run a lot of us through the wringer... so maybe just extend it indefinitely....
I would be cool with this "challenge" thread just going forever.
I swear I will eventually post more.
Personally, I see no problem with keeping it going and just renaming it the "Freedom Force Challenge", or something to that effect.
Yes forever seems reasonable, I know when time permits I want to do some more things.
So?
Something I've been messing with on and off for quite a while now in between everything life's been throwing at me. Major thanks to Detourne_Me for the base Skope. Still a heavy work in progress though.

Looks really promising, CB!
Looking good! I always like seeing this design art become reality.
That is great!
Thanks, guys, there's still a lot of rust that needs to get shaken off before this is even remotely finished.
I love that, CB! I've always loved that design, and you're doing a great job bringing it to life. What a pleasant surprise to see this!
DG, cool! A 30s, Shadow-esq Minute Man, what a neat idea!
it's been a long time i didn't come here... :ph34r:
Are you guys working on a FFIII ?? :thumbup: :wub:

Have any of these been released i am loving looking through this thread.
Those have all been released; they represent years of being a content hog. At one point I considered putting them in groups on Medifire, but I've been having problems.

It is still my intention to post most of these on Medifire. I just need the time and inclination.

I didn't see these up on Mediafire yet or am I missing something?
They aren't up yet. The Juggernaut-looking things are by Texas Jack, and may be at one of his Yahoo Groups. The Nazi/Hydra/Red Skull skins are in one of my Yahoo Groups:
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/characterobscura2minionsandmisc/
... along with the Spaceman Eyebrow mesh they are on. The two women are by Afghan Ant:

I'll have to check on Speedboy. I had thought that he and a version of Bucky were in those posts.

Unfortunately, nothing on any of the three TexasJack groups that I could find. Oh well. Appreciate the info none the less. :thumbup:
I apologize: the two battlesuits may have been by RedBlackDeath. I've checked his Yahoo Group and they aren't there.
I just ran into this mesh while going thru my backups, it is by TJ.

These are amazing. Does anyone have any of them?
are these available somewhere?
Which ones?
As pictured, most of these were collected from various sources by daglob over several years. Whether any of them are currently available is another question. I don't think he ever got the collections up on Mediafire like he wanted to. Some of the answers to where some are/were are in the posts (some are in Afghan Ant's page on HeroForce, for example -- but you better hurry, it's on catwho's site).
I suggest you narrow down what you're looking for and ask for a few at a time specifically, maybe all on the same mesh per request. You might get lucky & someone will recognize what you're asking for, and either has it or knows where it is currently. I've got quite a few of some of these (civilians & thugs, for example), and few or none of others (Eve & Order are ones I've got maybe one or two for).
I'm really after the Corruption versions of freedom force members, the lantern skins for ff characters were pretty tempting, and the Manbot with the floating hands were what really lept out at me, I believe I have the Thorder skin
