    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.

    Then you're doing better than I am with my novels -- I shudder to think how many times I've rebooted them. Although I get to call it "editing".

    I'm slowly 'editing' what I had written. I had finished it back when I was still with the Evil One (the ex-wife); after we moved back here to PA, she needed something to do while I was at work, so she offered to type up my hand-written epic. The problem is, she kept getting ideas for additional characters and storylines, and I went from a finished novel to a half-finished one. When we split up, she gave me the characters she had created, and I'm working two of them into the story, hence there is a tiny bit of re-booting to go along with the editing. Below is one of the characters she created. The uniform isn't exactly what the character had, but it's close enough for now.

    Here's a quick render I did before my 32-bit version of DAZ Studio gave up on me. It uses TargetView's Chris II figure with some of the his accessories.

    Made a Mouser, my first stab at a mechanical figure. Tried to keep it low poly so that tons of them could be in a scene. It wound up around 7000 polygons. I still want to go back and add some dent morphs.

    Very neat.
    If you sell it, I will buy.

    Hello everyone,

    I remember reading in this thread a while back that someone was looking for a Mystique texture similar to the one she has in the X-Men movies. Has anyone had any luck finding a texture like that somewhere, and if so could you please post the link? I have had no luck finding one so far.

    Thanks for any help and replies.

    No said texture was found. But someone, I forgot who, created their own and gave instructions on how to do it. I'd give you those instructions, but if I remember right, they were on the old forum and I wouldn't know where to look for it. Sorry.

    Does anyone know where a mask like the red haired guy is wearing for sale? preferably for M4 or M5/Genesis.

    It's a fairly straightforward style, open mouth, ears and top and covering the neck.

    Maybe you could do a trans map on a 2nd skin head... I've done something similar before.

    The Supersuit can do that...

    I wish, but it's not quite what I'm looking for. I want the kind that is straight across the forehead and then all the way around the head. Like Booster Gold, but with the ears exposed and the eye mask integrated.

    The Nadino Mask might work, as well.

    Downside here is if you don't already have either, as Joe's put both the Mach 2 and the Mask "in the vault." Though I believe he's been known to make arrangements regarding some of his older stuff, on a case-by-case basis.

    The Supersuit can be transmapped to achieve the look you want.

    I can't find a preset that matches that. just the one already posted.

    I like it, rduda - very Rocketeer-ish. Good work. :)

    that would be great. Ideally 'd like it for M4 because it gives me a little more versatility, but beggars can't be choosers

    I haven't used M4 in years now. This was built for Genesis. IF that works then I'll go ahead and create the little package.

    I like this... I get kind of a Rocketeer-meets-Iron Giant vibe from it.

    Haven't seen it mentioned here yet, but TerryMcG put up another outfit a few days ago... his first M4 concoction, I believe. I threw this together pretty quickly... haven't really spent any time fiddling with the materials for DS...

    I'm happy to test it for you and help with textures, if you'd like. I'll pm you my e-mail address.

    I'm uploading the full SuperSuit Set right now to my server. I'll have it available via my freebie page over in the Freepozitory a little later. It's about a 70Mb download. Contains 4 pairs of gloves, Mask, Cape, Supersuit, 2 pairs of shorts, two pairs of boots and a morphing Superlogo. I'm releasing it AS IS. There are some very basic textures that's included. Everything is properly organized. I have it under People> Genesis> !!Heroes> RAMWorks. There are allot of morphs for the cape and allot of fit morphs for the Supersuit but mostly for my Bruno shapes that I released a couple of weeks ago now.
