DJ's stuff - Chinook revisioned

Podmark · September 20, 2007, 08:35:36 AM

That tankman is amazing. Excellent work DJ!

Tomato · September 20, 2007, 08:38:08 AM

This my friend, is what happens when pure awesomeness is consolidated in a skin. I love how you took the Ultimate Iron Man pieces, but used them in a way that wasn't completely obvious. That's not really easy with Character-specific meshes, but you pulled it off nicely.

Fusion · September 21, 2007, 02:43:34 AM

Excellent work on the skope and skin :thumbup: . However "Der Panzermenschlich" is total gobbledigook. I suggest either "Panzermann" (Tankman) or "Der menschliche Panzer" (The human tank).

Revenant · September 21, 2007, 01:55:51 PM

That Panzer man is a masterwork! Great job, it's so realistic, and good call on not using a refl layer.

Carravaggio · September 21, 2007, 08:16:33 PM

dude...dude.

Seriously that is the best skin ever! what a great design, i wasn't sure what to expect from the nazi in a can, but whatever it was i never imagined anything that good.
You really have outdone you self, m'man, i am suitably impressed and in awe!
What are the parts from, Ultimate Ironman and Superboy Prime?
Loving the grimy version as well, great idea to do them both. Man this collaboration is far exceeding my expectations and hopes, again, fantastic stuff, DJ!

C4 · September 22, 2007, 01:13:09 AM

The walking tank is really something. Great work.

Haljack · September 22, 2007, 04:57:36 AM

Really great stuff, love the metal texture looks very tank like.

HumanTon · September 23, 2007, 07:49:24 AM

This is amazing stuff! When are you going to release it?

Thanks, mon ami. I spent a long time staring at the wireframes of the Ultimate Iron Man pieces, trying to find a way to get them to work and I'm happy they came out liek they did.

Eeep....looks like my limited German knowledge failed me...well, seeinga s that is the case then I know dub this character...Panzermann. Thanks, Fusion for the correction.

Thanks, Rev. I was worried at first that without the refl layer it would look to bland but it seems my gut feeling was incorrect!

If ye think this is the best yet Car, just wait until ye see what else I have up my sleeve. And don't worry...ye weren't the only one who wasn't sure what to expect from the nazi in a can...I spent weeks trying to think something up and get the stuff to fit together right. As for the parts...the body (male_muscular) and the silver tubing is from the Superboy Prime mesh and the feet, lower arms, pelvis and lower legs are from Ultimate Ironman.....other than the helmet (which is from the MACH I mesh) the rest is from the Iron_Man_Mk21 mesh.

I'll probably release this one, along with all the previous Nazis, once Car and myself finish up our list of archetypes. I gotta talk to Car about how we're going to release them (on one site or on seperate sites, ect) but when we do release them, we'll make sure to tell everyone where to find them.

Panzermann is a true masterpiece, and incredibly original. I have a new favorite among this fantastic Nazi bunch.

Arilou Laleelay · September 27, 2007, 05:07:37 PM

As I stated before on these forums, I love exoskeletons and robotic meshes/skins and Panzermann looks awesome. Geistesblitz is great too, I like the name as well. Great job Deaths Jester :)

Deaths Jester · October 09, 2007, 08:33:45 AM

Meet our spellcaster of the group...der Zauberer (The Magician)

360

And becasue the face doesn't show the above pics don't show the true depth and detail of the face...

Upclose and personal

I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YoungHeros · October 09, 2007, 08:45:50 AM

i love it!! :thumbup:

Carravaggio · October 09, 2007, 09:05:47 AM

The magic symbols down one arm look great. Brilliant stuff Dj, as usual :) its lil things like the rim of the hat reflecting, the detail on the belt buckle and the crispness of the pouches and pockets that give your stuff that extra WOW factor.
Like i said via PM you went in a COMPLETELY different direction with him than i was thinking, but it works perfectly. He looks ancient, powerful and arrogant and that pic of him 'casting a spell' says it all. i can well imagine in his way this guy could be the most powerful and dangerous of all the (as yet still unnamed) team.

yell0w_lantern · October 09, 2007, 09:11:50 AM

Nice hat.

Ummm..actually those symbols down that one arm are actually a sleeve patch that some Nazi troops wore: means he's been a Nazi Party Member Prior to January 30, 1933. As for the rest of the uniform's bits...the awards on his chest are as follows (order as they appear from left to right): Medal for Length of Military Service, Entry into Sudetenland, Prussian Life-Saving Medal and the Silesian Eagle ('19-'20 Fighting vs Poland). The cuff title might be the closest to being considered magical because it's the cuff title of the SS Lieberstante Adolf Hitler division which started off being the Fuhrer's bodyguards whcih were the most dangerous and best trained guys in the group. Course that's all just history...but ye are right about this guy being perhaps the most dangerous and powerful member of the team.

detourne_me · October 09, 2007, 09:46:14 AM

such a great looking skin. it's gonna be a shame when i fry him with the human torch, then wash him out with namor! ^_^

Outcast · October 09, 2007, 09:57:33 AM

Great design on the new nazi spellcaster! :cool:

He is intimidating and has that commanding presence.

There can be no doubt, he is the best choice to be the leader of the group.

If you add in a cape, he kinda reminds me of M. Bison from the video game Street Fighter 2. :thumbup: Nice!

AfghanAnt · October 09, 2007, 10:56:03 AM

I love the idea and execution but have you thought of adding a magical belt buckle or something to show his connection to the occult more clearly?

ubergreendragon · October 09, 2007, 08:31:37 PM

As always your stuff looks great DJ :thumbup: Wish i knew how to skin cuz i had an idea i wanted to throw out there mabye you can run with the idea...
some sort of Nazi robot using the Sentinels mesh.

I originally had thought about adding an amulet to him but it really doesn't fit the character's background real well..though I am considering adding a floating book to him like Style did with the Doc Strange 'Skope.

Carravaggio · October 12, 2007, 08:56:14 AM

Aw man you gotta do the book thing, for real. That would look mad :D

BatWing · October 18, 2007, 04:06:19 PM

whoa dude!
great work on the wrinkles man!

BentonGrey · December 02, 2007, 12:16:00 PM

Hey DJ, where can we get our hands on this awesomely evil Nazi team? I would love to use some of these guys in the DCUG!

crocodamon · December 02, 2007, 07:01:29 PM

Zauberer rules

Deaths Jester · February 21, 2008, 02:35:58 PM

And I return with the underwater portion of this Nazi fun...Meer Tuefel!!!

YoungHeros · February 21, 2008, 02:49:22 PM

That's quite a come back :o

The_Baroness · February 21, 2008, 02:58:32 PM

:O ok.. sh is evil... i know... but... oh my... I'm in love.... :O

BentonGrey · February 21, 2008, 04:19:59 PM

Ohh wow! That's a great design DJ! I love the scales and arm blades! Now I've DEFINITELY got to use these guys in an Aquaman story....I can see it now, she could be a captured Atlantian who's been brainwashed and genetically modified (or descended from one). Either way, I definitely want to get my hands on these skins and skopes DJ!
