Obscure Heroes

[daglob]

I'm not sure that's Mysta on the cover of Planet Comics, since that's not the outfit she wears inside, but I know full well that that makes no difference whatsover. I think that may be the 1940s-50s version of Conan's Miraj cover girl from the 1970s. She gets in a lot of troube on those covers. However, I have a Superwoman skin for a vxfemale mesh that won't take more than a few minutes to turn into that outfit (need to see if they have hexable collars...).

Might be Jack Kirby art on The Black Owl... he did some work on the strip. The backgrounds don't look like it though, an the knees aren't knobby enough. Hmm.

I think Major Victory looks great love that collar and cape  :rickbm

The Green Lama and Electrawoman and Dynagirl Here is some facts on the Green Lama  College student Jethro Dumont spends 10 years in Tibet studying the secrets of meditation and returns with mystical powers. He now returns to Park Avenue and New York City to combat crime, evil doers and international enemies and with a magical Tibetan chant, he is transformed into the Green Lama. :rickbm

[Panther_Gunn]

I'm positive that Electrawoman & Dynagirl have been skinned, but I can't recall where I saw them.  I checked Vigilante's site (the most likely), but he doesn't have them.

[GhostMachine]

Panther, I think someone at GPL did them.

[kssaints]

Actually I did Green Lama. I believe he is in my first Yahoo group. He was one of my first skins.

[JKCarrier]

I'm positive that Electrawoman & Dynagirl have been skinned

I was the culprit on that one. They're here:

(Note that these are really old, and kind of crappy.  :unsure: )

[Green Hornet]

Thanks for the links for the Green Lama Electrawoman and Dynagirl :rickbm

[Green Hornet]

Here are some new old ones Skyman, Rocketman, Blue Bolt  :rickbm

Hey there All,
I have a quick question. I have my Avenger skin and hex ready I think. But I have looked at many picks and never seen him with a holster ot sheath. Should I add them or leave them off of the Taskmaster hex I have done of Avenger.

[UnkoMan]

I know I've seen Skyman somewhere...

And who is that guy in the yellow? Is that Rocketman? I could skin that in a minute, considering I've been saving the bases I colour now, so I've already got a yellow and a red. I have no idea what his rockets look like though, but whatever. Hmm, guess I'd need to do the girl, too, but that wouldn't take too long. Man, those are simple costumes.

[The Pwime]

okay, so we've got a Green Lama skin...I can check that off my list.

Did anyone ever skin a Green Llama, though?

None of the pictures I've ever seen show a holster or sheath either. I'd say leave them off, but if you do leave them on, I'd suggest you color them either a very dark brown or black, so they look like leather.

That's because they were strapped to his legs under his pants. They were named Mike and Ike, and i can't remember which is which. The knife was something like a Magnum throwing knife I once saw (no crosspiece-hollow handle), and the gun was curved to fit his calf. There was no trigger-guard, and the cylinder was probably no bigger than the gun itself (held four .22 rounds). Since these things don't really exist, I'd go with making the sheath/holster show. However, if you can play with the animations and have him reach down to his ankle to draw his weapons...

If you do give him a holster and sheath, I have to dissagree with Ghostmachine's perfectly logical suggestion as to color. The Avenger was all about gray, like Doc savage was all about bronze, and The Shadow was all about sneaking around in black. Ike and Mike were blued and stainless steel, however, since they were artifacts from Benson's life before he became The Avenger.

Let me retract part of that-black would probably do fine.

[kssaints]

Hey there folks. The Avenger will be uploaded to one of my groups this weekend. I am also almost done with a Yank and Doodle skin. Just need to do a hex for them. Hey guys and girls. Just a quick update to let you all knbow I missed getting them uploaded this weekend. But will try and get it done in the next few days.

[Green Hornet]

new additions to the obscure here is the Golden age version and an updated version Airman  :rickbm

[daglob]

If I can figure out how to get the cock-comb thing off one of the bad guys in the new Pulp Fiction mod and on a Taskmaster mesh, I may be able to do Blue Bolt. We have male alpha and male alpha collar, it's too bad we don't have male alpha fin or a version of male alpha with a fin that can be changed. I have wanted to do Blue Bolt, but haven't because of the fin issue.

Also: there is a Fu Manchu look-alike (and a LOT of monions) in the new Pulp Fiction mod.

[kssaints]

Hey folks,
The Avenger and Yank & Doodle are now uploaded in my 10th Yahoo group. I am also working on Arrow and the Inferior 5. I also think I'll tackle Airman. Any how Here's alook at Yank & Doodle. I hope they are OK.

[daglob]

Hey! I just found Airman and The Arrow at http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/Copper_Wire/files/Centaur/. Haven't looked at them yet, but the other Copper Age skins I have are quite nice.

[Green Hornet]

Kssaints yank and Doodle are excellent you do fantastic work. Daglob I checked out the site you mentioned and downloaded everything there Thanks haven't checked out what they look like yet.  I also downloaded the nifscope haven't had the time to use it yet thought.  I have been experimenting with trying to make a Green Hornet skin for the Grenadier Beetleman Mesh.  Here are a few more obscure Heroes Mango, Twister, Ultra the multi alien. 

[daglob]

Ultra, the Multi-Alien.

I am working on a mesh for him on Male Alpha. I have been for some time. I'm trying to get the electric leg to look right, but haven't yet. I don't know enough Niftscoping yet to add half a head of hair and an ankle wing.

I wish Texas Jack had done this one before he quit.

I have seen reference to a Male Twirling mesh or somesuch. Anyone know if itreally exists, or will th Human Top attribute stand in for that. Neet to try that out.

[BatWing]

whoa that dude  reminds me of darn it 4got his name

[kssaints]

I used tommyboy's speedboy_ttvlite.

IIRC, the keyframes from the Whirlwind69 mesh will work with most Male Basic meshes:
