Some great stuff AA, as ever.
The blog is pretty good too.
Glad to see you still have the skinning/skoping bug, but don't understand how you can keep getting better...

Thanks, Tommyboy. Also like every skoper, without you guys I wouldn't be able to do any of this. You help me make my ideas come to life.

Nice...love the specs that you added.

I had the same idea, but I wanted to use the baggy pant from the luke cage meshv5 I think. But It looks it look great and like it was said before the glasses are a nice touch.

I really got to echo this statement. Skoping is the ultimate skinning tool.

Very, very true.

I'm really digging the customized faces here AA, the details show alot of love for characters. Beautiful.

My favorite of the SuperFamily members, Conner Kent!

Don't mean to be the voice of negativity here but in my opinion the highlights on the t-shirt are too strong giving it an almost PVC effect. Apart from that well done.

really like your skins in particular the face looks very super family

Really awesome work AA.

[Blkcasanova247]

You've got a knack for "banging" out these families. Now I'm wondering if there's a certain "fantastic" family coming down the road.

Congratulations on your new blog site AA. The cartoon face of Lex Luthor and Superman looks really great by the way.

In your blog, there's a picture of this new Superwoman? Could it be possible that you are interested/planning to make a skin for her sometime in the future?

Yes, I'm planning on skinning her soon. I just need to finish the Eradicator.

[daglob]

It's a good thing you retired, otherwise you'd be working yourself to death.

[Blkcasanova247]

Holy cow! Another character that I hate that you've done a fantastic skin four!

[darkknight92]

Nice work (as usual). So do you give lessons?

[Podmark]

I made some Eradicator comments on your blog. Very happy to see this skin.

[Podmark]

AA clear out your PMs.

Done. Sorry peeps. I always forget to delete messages.

[cryonic2099]

I actually like Eradicator (more in his Reign of the Supermen costume though)....glad to see he's getting your special attention.

[murs47]

I'm really looking forward to this one, I've always liked that design for Eradicator.

[Cyber Burn]

I can't believe that i've never seen this version of the Eradicator before. You always put so much heart into your skins. Beautiful.

Nice to know this new Superwoman will be getting the AA treatment.

I've never seen that costume of Eradicator either, but i like it as well.

[AfghanAnt]

So, I've almost finished the Eradicator and I skoped Superwoman this weekend. I guess I am looking for feedback/advice on what to do about Eradicator's cloak. Skinning it is just not panning out the way I planned. So could any of your guys out there give me some suggestion for a new cloak.

Hmmm.....maybe a jacket or shirt and alpha out the bits that you don't want? Ren's Firebrand or Syns Wolverine TJplus.....alpha out say the sleeves and right up under the chest? Maybe give that a whirl.

Ah, I see what you are saying and that is a good idea. I'm actually talking about the bottom part of the cloak. I just can not make heads or tails on tommyboy's cloak.

[Blkcasanova247]

Then maybe...use Jik's xcom ethereal mesh?

[Podmark]

Way back when I was thinking of doing this design I thought alpha-ing out parts of Gni's trench coat might work.

[Blkcasanova247]

Yeah...that could work too.

[AfghanAnt]

Great idea, Pod.
