Captain America.... 2/6

[murs47]

I'm kind of glad the previous one got screwed up in the blackout. I like this one a lot more. Still needs a few more minor details before release.

*stares in awe*

Looks really nice. Maybe you should try adding some knee pads if you'd like. I am sure one of our resident skopers wouldn't mind helping you with it.

[Podmark]

Looking very nice Murs. I like the new touches. I'd go with a slightly brighter blue maybe.

[UnkoMan]

I actually like the duller blue. It makes this skin look more realistic, as opposed to the cartoony feel of the previous one. The highlighting on the red is a lot nicer, too. It's got more depth, too. I've gotta say... this is actually quite an improvement on an already good skin.

The only bother bothering me is the mask going over the bottom of the nose. That's a little odd, and a simple fix. But yeah, great work yet again, and in such a small amount of time.

I like this blue a bit more as well. I feel it matches the same hue of blue juancho used in the micro.
I see what you're saying about the nose thing, shouldn't be a problem to fix.

One more thing: Thanks a bunch for hexing off the gloves and boots for me!  :thumbup:

[Outcast]

This new one definitely looks more like Cap. Now that i can see his eyes. :P

Though I'm not sure with the padded (kevlar?) design on the upper part of his costume. It looks good sometimes, but at times I think it seems to be too light? Can't really say for sure. :unsure:

Maybe you could try a different pattern? Like what was suggested earlier by bats, "honey comb"? I dunno. :unsure: (not really a good at skinning)

But i know you haven't finished making the final touches. So...so far so good.

I'm pretty sure it's gonna look more awesome once your finished with it murs. :thumbup:

[GhostMachine]

I only see one thing wrong with the re-design:

If its supposed to be Steve Rogers, his eyes should be blue, not brown. Otherwise....  :thumbup:

I'll give the honey-comb pattern a whirl on the 2nd version of Juancho's re-design whenever I get to it.
The final touches I need to add aren't anything major, so what you see, is pretty much what you get.
I took the liberty of excluding the stars that go the shoulder because of warping issues.

:lol:

It's Bucky. :P

[Previsionary]

That looks pretty spiffy, Murs and Juancho. My only problem with it? It's bucky and not the real captain america...Jeff Mace. I'll allow you time to fix this error. (jokes...jokes)  ;)

[AfghanAnt]

I really love the color work on the skin and your Bucky/Cap America is great!

:mellow:...thought the stars on the shoulders looked ok though....

Sometimes i like the bright blue color. Kinda has that comic appeal. ^_^....other times the realistic color of the other one... :wacko:.. :doh: it's difficult to choose.

[GGiant]

Oh, you removed the stars on the shoulders, it doesn't look too different with juancho's design but I'd still stick to one with stars on shoulders.

[Lunarman]

Wow, the one on the left is much better. I have to say the realistic colour dramatically improves the skin. And i think the shoulder stars were a bit confusing.

Well done, massive improvement!

[Klauser]

Hey Murs!!

I've been watching this thread with great interest.  Your translation of juancho's design is a thing of beauty.

I prefer the brighter blue color scheme on the right (above) - the colors really pop out at you, and would probably look better in-game. 

The subdued blue looks more like an "ultimized" version of the skin - it looks good as well, but it's not as close to juancho's design.

Any chance you could release both?

Thanks!!

[The Pwime]

where'd the eye-lenses go?  :P

[Blitzgott]

Both look great. I like the dark blue better, myself. Also, I think you should keep the stars on the shoulders. I wouldn't mind if you removed the stars on the knees, though. I don't like them very much. I like the strands on the boots, but I think you should remove those white details on the gloves. Also, I think eye-lenses look better for this skin than actual eyes.

I'd love to release the first version for those that prefer it, but it doesn't exist anymore. :(

He got contacts. :P

If I might make a suggestion as far as the stars... rather then removing them entirely, you might have more luck making them smaller and moving them further up the arm so that the center coincides with the jut on the mesh.

I've tried that, and a few other things. But, none of my experiments looked appealing. For the time being I'm just going to leave them off.
