Blkcasanova247

The short hair is a lot better. :thumbup:

House Quake

Can never have enough spandex clad cannon fodder.

Carravaggio

I agree, HQ.
And on that note:


An update of a much older skin that I am have been unhappy with for a while.
More cannon fodder and Nazis on the way :)

YoungHeros


Carravaggio

Yeah i made a few stylistic and colour changes to him but kept the overall look quite similar. It wasn't a bad design, just executed less than spectacularly.
another bad guy in progress:

Carravaggio

Another WIP:


These last four bad guys all exist on the same mesh, making for a range of random supervillain encounters.

Yeah I remember that guy, and I must say this version looks much better.
As I recall the old version had basically the same colors, but this time u put them to better use, good job!

Deaths Jester

Ohhh....NPI revamps...nice work, Car.  Makes me want to go back and revamp my old villians.  If only NPI was coming back.....

One thing though on Radiance that bothers me is the costume "wrinkles"/ribbing on the neck...they stand out just a tad too much.  Might I suggest ye tone down the highlighting a bit maybe.  Other than that I cannae wait to see what comes about.

Good point I'll have a look at that.

:P Yeah...if only... :thumbup:

UnkoMan

Eh? Do they? I'll have to get that one from you. (Not just for the sweet skins.)

Maybe once school is done I'll go on a mindless minion rampage. I love skinning those types of guys.

Figure Fan

I love these latest skins, Carr!

I like the bald-headed version of Gravija, and Radiance looks incredible. I absolutely love the colors and designs.

I look forward to seeing more of the "G" guy and the fin-headed guy. LOL. Their names escape me..

HumanTon

These are great--I loves me originals!

And yeah some minions to go with them would be great, too.

These guys ARE the minions! :)
Baron Zemo never went anywhere without the MOE, and these guys fill that same role, powerful, but not too ambitious, they are the perfect muscle for hire bad guys that the mastermind throws at your hero in waves.
I have a heap more in mind, so keep an eye out for them.


EDIT: Yes, Youngheros, Gravija takes his name from the Final Fantasy spell of the same name.

Carravaggio

Feryl, the claw poppin', cussin', spittin', brawlin', regenerating man-beast!
I'm going for a kinda goofy ex pro wrestler look here, nobody would get about in spandex yellow shorty shorts and bare legs...except this guy :D
he'll have some form of ears or additional mask piece to draw focus to his head and make his outfit seem more animal-like.



these bad guys are pretty easy to put together, i hope to knock a dozen or so over eventually :)

EDIT:
Quick update

Blkcasanova247

:lol: That's just plain awesome! I love that skin so far.

Nice though it seems ye have a bit of overlapping on the mask...probably something ye can fix in 'Skope.

Dr.Volt

Holy smokes!  I'm likin' this latest string of baddies, Carr.  I especially like your claw-poppin man beast!  Nice work as always!

NomadX

Your original>Wolverine....m i rite?  :P

UnkoMan

That tiny bit of overlap is actually not a very big problem. If you just skin them both the same colour, they should match up alright. Not 100%, but good enough that nobody'd be able to tell.

That's pretty hilarious looking, Car.

BentonGrey

I'm loving these villain designs Car, very clean lined and straight forward.  By the way, clean out your inbox man!  Ha, I was going to send this to you in a PM, but I can't, sooooo:

I've finally gotten around to adding Prometheus into the DCUG, and I was just looking over the old post about his herofile.  I see that you've got a few set up, and if you still have them at hand, I was wondering if you might be willing to email them to me?  I like the idea of your set-up, and it'd save me some time.  Thanks man!

P.S. Did you ever get around to finishing Barry?

YoungHeros

By the way... are you going to do the same thing with The Golden Age Guys? :o

Xenolith

You body of work is very impressive.  This latest guy though, wow!  That really works.   :)

Carravaggio

BG: I don't have those old Prometheus files anymore, sorry. Was i working on Barry? I thought it was Ray and Carter. I suppose I can manage a Barry as well. I'll get them out to you soon...

YH: Maybe, if I get time, but it'll be a low priority.

NomadX: I sure hope not! If that guy can take Wolverine he'd be invincible, considering how overpowered wolverine is these days. :D

As for the clipping on Feryl's mask, i figure I'll just alpha out his forehead so it stops conflicting with the mask.

Thanks for the comments, all. I do take all comments and criticisms under serious advisement, even if I don't respond to them. Each one helps me make better skins.


Dr Cerebro, malicious mind controller!
Unfortunately due to his choice of keyframes, the not-so-good doctor is unable to reside on the shared mesh that houses the previous quartet of crims. Need to reskin the helmet, its currently using AA's Cerebro skin.

CrashmanX

wow dude very very nice i like the stuff that ive seen

BentonGrey

Ohh, I like that design.  I really like the little Pyro-esq things on his hands.  I think you should make those little boxes on his belt match those on his hands though...or maybe not.  I suppose it's a question of matching the hands or matching the helmet...

Ack!  You're right, it was Ray and Carter!  Sorry man, I'm retarded.  If you WANT to do Barry though, I certainly won't complain! :thumbup:

UnkoMan

Yes! I LOVE this design. The helmet is so sweet...  The purple is awesome. This is a guy I want to fight.

I agree that his side squares should match his hand squares, though. In all honesty, I probably wouldn't bother even matching his belt to his helmet. I'd try it all as the darker purple first. If you are going to make it just a tiny splash of silver, why not make it super prominent that there is only a bit of silver. His eyebrows and light skin tone make it alright.

I also don't quite dig the logo. It's got the problem most of the CoX logos have (actually I think it is really close to one) and that is that it looks like generic clip art rather than a super villain logo. And really, most super villains don't even have logos. It's more of a hero thing. Especially when it comes to chump villains whose sole purpose is constant defeat.

Now... it CAN work, but I think it has to be something a bit more distinct than just gears.

So geez, I make it sound like I don't even like the skin anymore, but I do. Probably my fave of the villains, actually. And I just love seeing them. These guys are fillin' me with joy.

catastrophe

Its an amazing skin Carravagio, probably the best of the villains...im really amazed how well you skin.

BUT(yes theres a but), im not really feeling his eyebrows. I think they look a little big, but that doesnt even affect the skins awesomekillerpowercoolness. Awesome work Carr, cant wait for the finished team!

Blkcasanova247

He's lookin hot...lookin' damn hot! :thumbup: Great skin Carr.

Deaths Jester

To steal Cardmaster's quote:  "SAH-WEET!"

Realy nice work on the face, mate, though I do hope that once ye decide on a full time helmet for him ye're going to do some shadow work on it too...right?  *Nudge Nudge*
