Afghan Ant Artistic Advances: 12-07-2008 Atomik Backwards

So I was rereading some old comics and got inspired to skin Psylocke and Revanche. Revanche is one of my personal favorite characters and when the whole Psylocke/Revanche storyline started I was really hoping Revanche turned out to be the real Betsy. I love Ninja Psylocke but I really miss the British version a lot. I especially hate what has been done with her more recently, the whole super-telekinetic, lack of telepathy, uber heroine is really boring. Anyway, they will probably be a duo pack and Psylocke will come with a psychic knife fx.

Very nice. I don't think I even have a skin for Revanche.

Woot, very nice, AA. I love me some psylocke/revanche action even though that story isn't one of my favorites...like...at all. Also, I wish the things you just said were true about current psylocke after her return. Other than having "TEKE THAT CAN SHATTER MOUNTAINS..." --which is just a battle cry as far as I'm concerned as she barely uses it and gets her butt kicked way too often-- she's barely uber and only uses her powers to shield and fly lately. I think you confused her with Claremont's Sage...who's the uber heroine with recently regained telepathy. Don't worry, it's an easy mistake to make. :P

[miguelyanke]

YAAAAAAAAAA!! AT LEAST!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

I've ever loved Revache, and i don't know why, nobody did a special mesh for her... and now you did her ^.^LOVE U!!!!!! :wub: :wub:


Aboyut PSylocke... it could be great to see her into her Captain britain costume ^¬^

[Blkcasanova247]

Sweet! :thumbup:

[AfghanAnt]

Prev, I hated it too but like you I wished that when she returned she would return in her British body. I mean why would her brother bring her back only and not restore her to the woman he knew?

Miguel, I don't think I will be doing the Captain Britain version of Psylocke but I may actually do Ultimate Captain Britain sometime in the future.

Anyway, I did some new stuff today because 1) I was playing as a character and realized I need to reskin her and 2) because these are designs and characters I really love:

[spoiler][/spoiler]
Right to Left: Superman Blue, Captain Marvel II (I wanted to finish off the whole Captain Marvel thing and she is from New Orleans), and Strange Visitor.

Strange Visitor has always interested me until the whole Kismet revelation so I generally ignore it. I thought she was spunky and really smart and had a connection to Superman that allowed her to wear the "S" and not make it look bad (the current Supergirl is just a terrible character...).

Wonderfull Captain Marvel II

[Blkcasanova247]

You know...I've always hated the Red and Blue Superman...and I especially disliked "Strange Visitor"....but I gotta say those are excellent skins. And I got a special place in my heart for Ms. Rambeau..nice work! :thumbup:

[darkknight92]

AA,
Your work is truly awesome. Thanks!!!!!!

I can't wait to try 'em out......

[AfghanAnt]

I'm glad you guys like it them.

Here is something I did tonight because of a Coipel drawn Red Hulk promo. I am really looking forward to Red Hulk fighting Thor.

[spoiler][/spoiler]

I actually thought about doing green and blue Hulk but for now just red.

[Podmark]

Very cool skins AA. Keep up the great work.

[Blkcasanova247]

Wow...another character that I don't like that you done a really kick arse skin for. :P Excellent work my friend! :thumbup: The only critique that I have for it is that I think the abs are too small and the nipples are slightly too big. ;)

[Previsionary]

I think I agree about the nips...In fact, I never want to see Hulk nipples again! Just seeing them in your preview image sparks horrible images of him growing angrier and angrier and those things getting harder and pointier. I want you to know that these are not pleasant images and I may need tons of therapy now. Thanks a lot. :P

Otherwise, a very good skin. I assume his identity still hasn't been revealed since I can't bring myself to read that book...*sticks with incredible herc*

I agree with you on the abs but nay I say on the nipples! Red Hulk's nipples will crush you!

He's drawn with equally large nipples in the comic and you are correct his identity has not be revealed and I really don't like the comic so much as I wanted to do a Hulk that hasn't been done and I loved cover art.

:D :P

All great work as usual AA...although...I'm not sold on your Red Hulk. He doesn't looked nearly "ripped" enough...especially his pecs.

Mcguinness can better explain methinks...

Lol, I know. He has muscles on his muscles. I don't even understand how anatomy like that works.

Eoughhh T_T... this kind of men make me ill T_T

[spoiler][/spoiler]

TT_TTtoo much muscles for me T_T


About the skin... i thought it could looks more irreal (as the image Courtnall6 showed) with over-muscles and more intense red... anyway, purfect work

Proper muscular anotomy goes out the window when dealing with 7ft red rampaging monsters!  :D

[UnkoMan]

Welp, he certainly is red. Boy I don't keep up with modern comics enough... I've heard mention of this red Hulk but haven't read anything he was in. And then you mentioned blue Hulk? Is that somebody too? Yeeesh.

Yeah, there was in fact a Blue Hulk but to be fair it was Hulk with Captain Universe's powers. With that said you won't believe who is the new Blue Abomination...I was shocked and really sad Loeb added even more confusion to this beloved sidekick's history.

Anywho, I added a lot more muscles and even did a palette swap and reskin of the face for normal Hulk.
[spoiler][/spoiler]

[herodad1]

excellent work.a new hulk to fight the soon(i hope) released thing.

[Podmark]

Looks much better. Green Hulk looks cool too.

I just read a quick synopsis on this Blue Abomination and ugh, I really don't like Loeb's writing.

[Jakew]

Great colours, hair and musculature ... and I'm not even particularly fussed on Red Hulk as a character.

Yet again something from AA I can't wait to use in-game....

[miguelyanke]

MORE  MUSCLES! MORE MUSCLES! MORE MUSCLES!!! MORE  MUSCLES! MORE MUSCLES! MORE MUSCLES!!! MORE  MUSCLES! MORE MUSCLES! MORE MUSCLES!!! MORE  MUSCLES! MORE MUSCLES! MORE MUSCLES!!! MORE  MUSCLES! MORE MUSCLES! MORE MUSCLES!!! ^¬^


I think it's good but HULK SHOULD HAVE AN EXTREME muscular figure http://www.pcimagenetwork.com/muscle/muscle13.jpg and i think the arms could be improved ^.~

-Edit: sorry, i did it again-

[UnkoMan]

Blue Abomination now? Sheesh, that guy gets into all sorts of crazy hijinks. (I just took a wild guess at who it was and wikipedia confirmed it.) Seriously though, ugh.

On the other hand, he does LOOK cool... maybe Red Hulk needs somebody to fight? Eh? Eh?

[spoiler][/spoiler]
I updated my Thor_Coipel and I'd like to give a big thanks to Blackcassnova247 for the skope and YellowLantern for the new Thor helmet. I got bored remembered that I liked Thor-El and skinned him as well. For those of you unfamiliar Thor-El is a character that showed up in the Unlimited Access series and was Thor and Superman fused together.

Thor_Coipel is available at HF but Thor-El is still on my harddrive right now.

[Podmark]

Both look great AA.

[Courtnall6]

I have to say AA that Coipel Thor skin is an awesome piece of work! You made me like the costume a tiny bit more. :P

Thor-El ain't too shabby either :cool:
