I did the pieces of the armour and the boots myself in Zbrush and Hexagon,
the hair is the "SOTO's Flat Top for Genesis" available at the sharecg site.
lazlong,
Thanks. The hair is just what I need for Red Hulk and Colossus. Any chance you might be offering the rest of the clothes for sale or make them available on ShareCG?
Have you seen Joe Quick's Banded Body Suit (I think that's the name). It's perfect for Colossus' metal look.
I´m afraid the armour is not posable :-) i exported the model with the pose and build it around it.
lazlong,
Thanks anyways. It's still a great render!
What settings did you use to make your Colossus?
thanks to Rduda for sharing the great helmet prop
That has to be Loki. Great job. Even looks like Tom Hiddleston.
I used Diogo skin with the Adonis face morph and about 60% Norwegian full face.
Scarlet Witch outfit does have a few faults but nothing that can't be over come.
For the DAZ users I suggest the Dynamic cape http://www.daz3d.com/dynamic-cape
I did cheat when it came to the outfit and used my procedure for no poke through when I enhanced the 'Witch's' chest.
(this is where I get to pimp my tutorial. http://pdsmith.deviantart.com/gallery/)
All in all I think it was a great suit.

After the recent cancellation of Legion of Super-Heroes (after a particularly dark storyline, alternate universe or not) I needed to do something fun with 'em, something that reminded me of their beginnings, where anything was possible and the future -- retro as it was -- seemed bright.
Here's the whole gang, circa Adventure Comics #300, hanging out at Moonshine's, where they serve the best Galaxy Burgers, Cosmic Fries and Milky Way Shakes in the known universe. Costumes still need a little tweaking, but it was sure fun doing it.

The Legion got axed?? WHAT? GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Very cute toon Legion there. Totally adorkable! lol
I think it's traditional to axe the Legion every couple years at this point. :P
Aren't they essentially being replaced with the Justice League 3000 title? That to me, aside from seeming like a really bad idea, was kind of crappy, because they basically gave a big FU to Kevin Maguire. It was a thing about a month ago, they canned his first issue and he didn't find out he was off the book until it was announced to the public. Classy, DC. Classy.
Giant Purple Gorillas!
Comic staple of my misspent youth. :lol:
Mark Waid was also pissed beyond reason because of this ax. From what I read it's not like the old days where there was a true collaboration it's all corporate decisions. What they say goes. DC is just another big business run wrong by folks that don't know what the hell they are doing.
Not so much replacing the Legion as just adding another Justice League. ;)
With so many alternate universes at DC (it looks like maybe it's more than 52 again) it's easy to brush off the last one as inconsequential, but that leads to readers considering all of them of little consequence.
I also felt sorry for Kevin; he really delivered on that last Legion issue, though. You have to wonder how much better sales might have been if he'd been with Legion longer.

I totally agree! Scott Kolins was NOT a good choice at all.
And yet, with all these bad decisions happening in DC, it's amazing the New 52 line of comics is still managing to sell. How bad do things need to get before they finally get it in their heads this isn't working and reboot things back to where they were?
Lady Loki
In an alternate universe, Loki managed to trick Odin in transforming Thor into a woman.
Now it seems to be Loki's turn. ;)
Good job. :)

Loki got trapped in the body of Sif at one point when Thor was rebooted (around the time of Secret Invasion). It was odd, but quirky. Too bad it ended too soon.
Actually, if you get into the Eddas, the origin story of Odin's horse Sleipnir is rather curious, and Loki is a prime suspect.
Promo pic I made as part of character profiles for my superhero comic Servant. Built with Genesis and kitbashed most of the costume, except the body suit is just second skin (couldn't get the right feel of superskintight fabric, so I just created a texture and gave it a displacement and bump map so that it looks like spandex and not body paint).
Not only that, from what I've read they can't even call it 52 considering they only like have 45 comics right now in that circle. 7 short and they cancel 4 of them in a month's time. STUPID!
As much as I don't like a lot of the New 52, they won't ever reboot things to where they were, not unless DiDio was dead and cold. They wouldn't even do it then, for fear of alienating the people who like the New 52.
According to rumors, WB was seriously thinking of shutting down DC as a company and farming out the brands. How true that is, I have no idea, but DiDio defenders say that he prevented that from happening with the New 52. If so, good for him I guess, but he's certainly alienated me, there are now only three DC titles I follow, and I was always a "DC guy". I guess maybe the cure is worse than the disease?
I think the person who had it right was Darwyn Cooke, he said several years ago, that comics are now made for 45 year old men, and they aren't even really trying to attract young readers. That's no path for long term success. He said there should be no such thing as a Superman story that wasn't suitable for all ages, because Superman was always the book you could hand a kid.

Considering the age that they're being written for, I guess I'm finally too old to be reading comics. I love the superhero genre, but I'm not spending more money on the hobby. I'd rather just focus on getting my own stories written. Maybe nobody else will ever read them, but I know they won't get rebooted every two years, either.

That's a good way to look at it, I'd say. You're in good company, because as The Maxx said, "The stories in my head are almost always better." :-)

Yes, they are. And once I learn how to make my own clothes for my DAZ figures, I'll be able to do some illustrations for the stories. I won't have to worry about a book switching artists in mid-stream.

Yeah, and they alienated the people who loved the previous continuity. Now they won't reboot out of fear from those who like it? Sorry, that's not very good logic to me. And no, I'm not calling your logic flawed, I'm calling DC's logic flawed because they are the ones that made this decision and have this fear.
I don't follow any of the DC titles. DC isn't getting my money. I just keep up with the news, hoping against hope the New 52 will end.
