Howdy guys, just reposting my requests for a couple different skins/meshes.  I've released voicepacks for both R'as Al Ghul and Harvey Bullock.  Poor Harvey is just going to have to sit idle because there isn't a skin or mesh for him.  One of the memebers here posted that he had a male_heavy_coat_hat_guns, and if anyone was interested in skinning him, he would send it to them.  Here are the obligatory images:

I'm looking for something fairly close to his animated apperance.

Also, although there is that great R'as Al Ghul mesh by Ink, I've been wanting to see one with a more dignified apperance for 'ol R'as.  I have been thinking, and it seems like (since Ink has allowed Nifskoping of his meshes) we could take the hair or head off of his mesh, and combine it with a TV_lite that had the kind of robes and sword we wanted.  Either his suit or shirt would be fine by me.  Once again, here are some pics:

There's also the first request I put in, for Blue Beetles seminal mode of transportation, Bug.

Howdy again, just thought I'd add another vp related request.  There are a couple of great Aquaman skins and meshes, but I haven't seen any of him in the armor that he dons periodically.  If someone might be willing to skin him, (I suspect that it shouldn't be too hard to work something out from a TV) I'd very much appeciate it.  As usual, here are the pics:

In some of the scans, it's not entirely clear, but the helmet is supposed to look like a dragon's head.  I don't particularly care if all the spins on the back are do-able or not, just the general shape of the armor and helmet matter to me. 

In a similar vein, has anyone thought about doing Alex Ross's version of the Bat armor?  I'm sure that a facsimile would be work-able on Tommy's KC_Batman_TV.  Pics:

Well, a kindly skinner has offered to take a crack at R'as and Harvey, so if that fellow who had the male_heavy variant might either post here, or send me a PM, I'll give you my email addy and pass it on to the skinner.

BentonGrey

Howdy guys, still looking for that male_heavy variant with the coat, hat, and guns.  Also, I have a question for the community.  Does anyone know if any swimmer keys exist that also accomadate a melee weapon?  I'm thinking trident here.  Let me know if they do, I'd like for Ocean Master to be able to look all....swimmy...as well as Aquaman.  On a similar note, I never got an answer about female_longhair compatible swimmer keys before the old posts were taken down.  If they exist, I'd be able to employ JKCarrier's excellent skin of Mera along with the others.

BentonGrey

Well, no word on those things yet, but I have ANOTHER question ^_^.  I am trying to round out my DCU material, and I was looking for Captain Atom.  Renegade made an EXCELLENT one, but it's not available on his site.  I'm not really sure where else to look.  Can anyone point me in the right direction, or perhaps send it to me?  Thanks guys!

:EDIT:  Someone has offered to send this to me, so that just leaves....well...a good deal ^_^  , but we're moving in the right direction!

Just in case anyone else is looking for Captain Atom, Courtnall6 has made a pack with 3 skins, available here:

detourne_me

for Harvey Bullock i've been using Paradox's The Chief at New Power Inc.

BentonGrey

Thanks guys!  Especially thanks to DM, that guy will work admirably as a place-holder, and this mesh is just about right, I think.  It'll be perfect if we can nifscope a fedora onto it.

UnkoMan

That was the mesh I was talking about before, if I recall. And there is a version with a fedora out there somewhere, but I had no luck in finding it. There's also a version with a male_basic head, but that's not what you want for Bullock.

As for keyframes, I've never seen swimmer for female long hair, however... I've heard talk you can transfer keyframes with nifskope somehow? Might want to ask about that, if you haven't already.

BentonGrey

Thanks for the response Unko.  I'll keep this thread going for a while, and hopefully someone with the fedora-wearing mesh will see it.  As far as the transfering keyframes, I will deffinetly have to check that out.  Maybe that might work for the trident-types as well.  Thanks again!

BentonGrey

Okay, I've got an update.  G-no PMed me with the location of the male_trenchcoat_hat mesh, so Harvey's mesh is taken care of!  Thanks again man! 

On another note, I'm still filling in gaps in my DC collection, and I'm looking for a Merlyn the Archer skin/mesh.  I am somewhat sure I've seen this fellow before.  Here's a pic to jog some memories.

FLASH_22798

I haven't seen a skin or mesh for him before, but I think it's more than doable with the tv meshes.   Between Hawkeye, Thunderer of Quard, and Quicksilver's hair, someone should be able to NifSkope it together.

i KNOW there's a Merlyn out there, hexed off the vxarcher base, because i had it (lost in a hard drive crash.)

i guarantee somebody out there has one, and btw, it looks great. i'm still trying to recover some of the stuff i've lost, while incorporating some of the new stuff coming out. i might hunt around for that one myself.

ElijahSnowFan

that was far too easy! the Merlyn's in Tap43's gammapatrol site -- i was just there a couple of days ago, getting his Doctor Light hex/skin!

it's under vx_archer_Merlyn, at this link: http://www.gammapatrol.com/files/TAP43/

BentonGrey

Thanks guys!  Man, TAP43 made all kinds of DCU second stringers.  Awesome!

BentonGrey

Hey guys, while the boards were down, someone previewed a really good looking Mad hatter hex/mesh, and I can't remember who it was for the life of me.  Does anyone else remember this?  Any idea if it's getting close to completion?

:EDIT: On another note, I'm having some trouble finding some appropriate kf's and such.  Can anyone point me in the direction of Loki_classic, for Kssaint's Shatterfist hex.

BentonGrey

Okay, nevermind that, I found him by looking through my yahoo groups ^_^

Still no ideas on who was working on the Hatter?

UnkoMan

I know the one you are talking about, but I just can't recall...
The answer will most likely be super obvious, once you find out.

BentonGrey

Ha, these kinds of things usually are....

On the note of the keyframes for loki_classic, KS has kindly agreed to email them to me. 

:EDIT: Well, it wasn't NEARLY as simple as I had thought.  Apparently Detourne_me released a pack of different nifskoped character nifs, for anyone to skin.  I don't believe the offer has been taken up yet.  See the thread here:

http://newpowerinc.com/original_freedom/viewtopic.php?t=1629&highlight=hatter

I'm officially requesting a skin for this excellent mesh.

kssaints

Guess Who? I have downloaded them and will be seeing what I can do with them as well. But for anyone who is wanting to skin them. Please do. I twill take some off my appley loaded plate. The one I am really looking forward to doing is the new Ragdoll. Anyway just thought I'd drop in and let you know someone is watching. I believe there were some interets by a few others. I think one person offered to do Scandal Savage.
Kssaints

BentonGrey

Haha, I really shouldn't be surprised.  You're the man KS, thanks again.  It seems I can't post a request without you filling it! :D

kssaints

Just in the skinning mood lately my friend.

BentonGrey

On second thought, are there any meshes/skins for Per Degaton that include guns or swords?  I have a nice hex by J_foam, but he's unarmed.  Thanks guys!

On a similar note, are there any skins for the classic Major Disaster on the TM_majordisaster hex?

BentonGrey

Still looking for Per Degaton and Major Disaster, but I have a couple more DC things to  see about.  First up, the unlikely one.  I have a great skin of Darkseid's master assasin, Kanto, but he doesn't really have a mesh that suits him.  I was wondering if something might be hexable from a TV or a TM.  Here is the boy in question:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanto_%28comics%29
http://www.batman-superman.com/superman/cmp/kanto.html
http://www.supermanartists.comics.org/silverage/Kanto-MMiracle07.JPG

I suggest TM, as I have a kitbashed version of that skin on a TM hex at the moment, and although it provides him with a sword and a pistol, he is missing his trademark hat.

Second, and simpler by far, I am working on putting together the henchmen for all of the Bat villains in my little project, and I have gotten to Two Face.  I remember an episode where he had a gang of big guys dressed in black and white shirts and pants.  This 'Two-Ton Gang' would make good muscle for harvey, and a very simple skin for any good samaritan.  I am using the Goon mesh, available on the Master Mesh list, I believe, and since it comes with a guy in a white shirt, all I really need is black.  Thanks!

FLASH_22798

Tommyboy has a Per Degaton at his site. Not sure if he's armed or not though.   But if not, he can easily be converted over to one that is.

BentonGrey

Hey Flash, I downloaded that mesh, and it does not have weapons.  I hexed them on to it, but I can't find a skin (or a part of a skin) that will cover them.  Thanks for the response!

FLASH_22798

I'll go ahead and download the mesh and see what I can do.   If nothing else, I'll swith the mesh to a new one with weapon keys.

UnkoMan

Black and white shirt/pants?

I could easily change the colours on that Dinosaur skin I did for Liberty Bay. What are you looking for, exactly? Like, black pants, white shirt, black hat, and then the reverse?

BentonGrey

Actually, they had black pants, shirt, hat, and then their counterparts had white pants, shirt, hat.  But the mixed might look better.  Thanks for offering to do this, Unko.

Flash, thank you as well!

kssaints

Hey Bent Harvey has finally got underway. I'll preview hime soon.
