I couldn't get what I wanted out of the suit, to not have a mouth and nostrils, so I went for the default sexy look I've seen a lot of superheroines in the comics.

I still have some issues to work through that I tried to hide. Of course if you look, you will see them.

I am happy so far. What's the verdict?

A couple of notes on the suit:

1. There are no shoes or boots by design. I thought about it for a second and decided that I really didn't want them there. Same for gloves and a cape. I tried to keep the suit looking like something she would have made, as her character isn't a millioinaire like our boy there.

2. I am leaning toward putting a lense on the mask, a la Spiderman, but I am not sure if I really want to hide those eyes.

Edit: One more thing, the texture and colors I used are not final. I haven't exported the UV maps and started on them yet. I will start that when I get the model done.

rokket rocks ! (again)

Lookin' good ...

I agree ... don't hide the eyes, eyes can be very expressive and add to an image.

She looks really GOOD!! rokket.  

Thanks guys. She is looking really good. I have to do some work on the shorts, as they are the only piece that I am having trouble with. I need to extrude the legs because they have a lot of poke-through.

I will work on this and post some more pics later.

I like the color of her costume, but I think I want it to glow a bit. Have to work on that.

They get away with hiding the eyes in movies because they use a combination of dialog, music and body language. That is a harder thing to accomplish if you are doing consumer based CGI, no matter how good you get at using it. So, no, I won't hide her eyes behind lenses.

I tried to create the lenses in Wings and hit a road block anyhow. I need to figure out how to curve the mesh to make it concave. Maybe I will do that for subsequent characters, using older Poser models that don't have all the emotion morphs in them. Still have to create one more villain for my story, so I will look into it then.

In Wings3d ... They're called "magnets." :biggrin:

Yeah... I am still learning how to use everything in the program. I have been getting really lucky so far with things.

I was thinking to just cut down a sphere, but I then I would have to shape it, and that will be a battle. I will get back in the program tomorrow and see what I can come up with.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I don't think I ever told you, but I find your tutorials entertaining and informative. You are going a great service on here to those of us who still consider ourselves 'newbies' even after almost 2 years.

I would cut the mask away from her lower face.  don't worry, no one will recognize her anyway.

Love esther

I don't know, I kind of like it like that...

I thought about doing just a mask around the eyes, but this one stuck with me after I rendered it. I was hooked after I did the close up of her face.

I will do another mask and see how it looks later on. Right now I am working on a suit for James, which is giving me problems due to his mesh. It separates when I extrude it.

you could call him "the extrudor" and that can be his power.

Ha ha! I already have a name for him... But for now it's a secret. His powers and suit are part of a plot twist. I am going back to the drawing board with him tomorrow.

Yes, twisting.  Another good power.

I will be working on the new mask today. I have to figure out how to use magnets in Wings to do the costume for James, so I will work on the mask instead. Hopefully I will have a render to post by the end of the day.

You were right. She looks awesome. I'll post a render later.

Looking forward to seeing this.

I have the render finished, so I am going to post in awhile. I am rendering it now. I had a render with BB's VSS, and it turned out not quite what I was looking for. I will post in about 30 minutes.

Of course, the texture is a temp thing. I don't really like it as is.

OK, talking it over with someone who's opinion I trust, I am going to add gauntlets to his costume. I will start on them this evening and have something up as soon as I get them done.

I am also going to work on changing the texture of the suit to something I do like.

Looks really good!

I think the gauntlets are a good idea. 

And I really like the smaller mask better. 

The smaller mask does look really nice. I think the pose has a lot to do with it, but yeah, I like her like that. I will be working on two different sets of gloves. Small ones like Green Lightning and the gauntlets. Post them later today.

Yes, I like Blaze like that much better. I would put some sort of edging, displacement, thickness around the edge of the mask.  And some sort of fire pic on her costume somewhere too.

Love esther

That will come later. As I stated when I posted the pics originally, she only has a temporary texture on her suit. I got it UV mapped yesterday and I started painting. I am going to stick with the color, but I am planning on superimposing a red and yellow flame on her leggings.
