KB - Taking another shot

[Kitt Basher]

Tom Strong inspired me to take another shot at this skinning gig.  I know I'm not the best artist here, but I have fun with it when I get the chance to spend some time on them.  So here are the two I am working on right now.

Tom Strong (Request).  He should be ready for DL tonight.

And if you haven't seen G'daybloke's Amalgam of USAgent & Red Star ... go HERE now.

My attempt at honoring that awesome design ...

That Tom Strong is a really nice skin, KB.  You've got some good details on him, like that hair on his forearms.  Very good.  The new one is coming along well too!

wow that tomstrong is really great! :thumbup:

Yay, Tom Strong! He's looking cool, but I think he's got a bit of widow's peak action. The hairline goes back a bit too far. Other than that things aren looking pretty good. The actual hair texture is nice.

USSRgent is a good start, too. To be honest... he looks just about done. You'll need some refl and shadow around the mask (and probably wherever red covers grey), but still...

Thanks Benton.  I tried adding the goggles too, but it looked pretty crappy so I removed them.

Thanks Unko ... I have to say, hair is the worst thing to skin ... doesn't help that I have very little IRL.  This is the first time I have been happy with the hair I have done.    It may go back a bit far, but it looked like Tom might want to start buying Rogaine in the Ref pics I used.  Still, thanks for the inputs ... they are greatly appreciated.

Yeah USSRgent was pretty close ... just a few tweaks ... was planning to use refl but the mesh doesn't have refl for the main body (may still switch).

You can use NifSkope to toss in refl and glow layers. And you can hex in a shield AND alpha- enable it, so he has a neat energy shield, whick I think was in the original designs.
