Requesting some originals

Gremlin · January 30, 2009, 07:06:46 PM

So, I've been kicking around an idea for a mod for awhile, and I've finally decided to get off my lazy butt and do it. It features all original characters, however, and my skinning skills are rather terrible. If someone would like to help me get this off the ground, I'd love your help. These aren't all of them, and the designs here are more like guidelines. If you have your own ideas, go nuts.

~~Empath~~ Unkoman
The Gadgeteer
Speedstress
Patriotman
~~Stingman~~ Billdamn

I really like these designs, very clean. I hope someone takes these up.

billdamn22 · January 31, 2009, 03:37:35 AM

I really like these designs. How quickly are you looking to get these? If you aren't in a huge rush, I may be able to whip these out in a month or so. Possibly sooner. Lemme know.

Gremlin · January 31, 2009, 04:26:28 AM

No rush at all, friend! It'll take awhile to do the characters and code and such. I can just use stand ins for all that.

I can definantly skope partiot man as I have similar design for Agent American, any idea what mesh you would like him on

Gremlin · January 31, 2009, 04:37:07 AM

No clue. Haha. Possibly a Taskmaster. Something with clothing and a wide variety of melee options. Maybe with a hair piece, too?

EDIT: Can everyone see these images clearly? They look really blurry to me.

tommyboy · January 31, 2009, 01:01:04 PM

I can see them.
Some nice designs.
Were I not quite so lazy and over-committed, I's volunteer to mesh one or two of these, and throw in a poor mans skin, too.
But I just can't see how I could do it anytime soon...

Gremlin · February 04, 2009, 11:08:26 PM

I threw on a new design for Sensory. LP threw me a fantastic skin of another character, Powerhouse, and I realized their costumes had too much in common. So...here he is. He's got a face and mask now, too.

Sensory Redesign

Sweet! Thanks!

Gravitron's a little chubby (I was pointed towards Unko Man's avatar mesh; it's perfect), Empath is pretty scrawny, and Patriotman is about male_muscular. Everyone else is basic.

BentonGrey · February 05, 2009, 05:51:22 PM

Good luck getting these skinned Grem! They are nice, iconic designs, and I'm looking forward to the adventure itself.

UnkoMan · February 05, 2009, 11:03:02 PM

My avatar uses Ren's Earth 2 Superman. I envisioned Unko being slightly hefty, and I think it's got a great look. Mine is even skoped onto male_basic keys.

I see you are using that basic design for Patriotman. I think I was probably looking at some of Ren's captain americas when I came up with it, but if you can skope it with something else that is cool too.

I, also, like these designs. What character creator is that? ALSO, have you thought of maybe not giving Sensory facial features for real? I mean, maybe his sense are beyond the need for any. Just a thought. No face guys always look cool, I think.

I might do Empath. Why? Because he has no body so I can just do whatever... Ho ho ho.

Thanks! I used the Fábrica de Heróis, which used to be the Timm hero maker but was turned into a more generic, versatile format with an English interface (click the US flag, you silly Canuck!) Well, he definitely needs a face underneath (rather extensive secret identity planned out), but I think a Question-style mask would work really well for him.

Is it wrong to be excited that people are fighting over these?

Vertex · February 06, 2009, 03:41:53 AM

I love that Fabrica de herois.. it's so much better than hero machine in my opinion.. now if only I knew how to save what I make.

Gremlin · February 06, 2009, 03:44:14 AM

Printscreen.

Wow, this red/blue chick is great LP !

laughing paradox · February 08, 2009, 03:10:50 PM

Thanks! I'm particularly proud of that design myself.

Gremlin · February 08, 2009, 08:50:15 PM

I really like the way her face and hair turned out from the first ones you showed me. They look awesome, LP. Thanks!

In case anyone was wondering, these guys are Powerhouse and Freezer Burn.

billdamn22 · February 12, 2009, 10:24:54 PM

You managed to sneak some more up, I see. I will definitely do Alloy.

Stingman is just about complete. Just need to do some minor details and the wings. Should show him tonight.

BentonGrey · February 12, 2009, 11:37:49 PM

Cool stuff LP! I REALLY like Freezer burn. She turned out really nicely.

Haha. Yeah, a couple. I haven't posted them because I'm not 100% certain on the designs,.I feel that many characters of this new batch lack punch. They seem a little generic and I'm not sure why. And I have a lightning-based hero that completely eludes me. I can't design him without it looking really boring.

If anyone wants to give them a shot, go nuts, just help me figure out how to make them more dynamic!

Velocity
Velocity's back (ish)
~~Sol~~ Vamp
Ashensoul
Lynx
Jean Poole
The Mystery

ALSO. That's great! Can't wait to see him!

billdamn22 · February 13, 2009, 03:23:39 AM

OK.

Here's what I got...

That is SPECTACULAR! I love it! Thank you!

Wow! Stingman is great! i love insect themed heroes!

jtharris86 · February 13, 2009, 02:31:31 PM

Im lost in words. Great job!!!

UnkoMan · February 25, 2009, 12:55:33 AM

And another...

Gremlin · February 25, 2009, 03:22:04 AM

Awesome skin, Unko! Thanks a million!

And you've really helped me define the character with that look, so thanks for that, too. Haha.

billdamn22 · March 01, 2009, 04:03:37 AM

Blah.....blah....blah.....Here's another one.....
