I started messing around with James today. Wait, that came out all wrong....

I got this idea, so let's see if I can finish it...

If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.

I am not sure right now. I was hoping one of the guesses would give me a good idea...

He is definitely going to be the Dark Knight, I just have to finish him. I only have some really good temp textures (procedural) on there. The hard part is going to be making the chest emblem. I don't want to mess with displacement maps, so I am going to see if I can model it...

Depends on the timeframe for DC:

Actually, there is a Catman (and he's even from DC Comics).  Nice work.

 

Aw....someone beat me to it! LOL. Teaches me to reply before I finish reading the thread. :D

Cat-Man, huh? Maybe I should rework his cowl.... 😊

I once saw a really nice batman insignia on the front of his chest which was made from displacement mapping.  it would probably be more work to model it.  YOu should give displacement a shot.

Love esther

Well, there is a "Wildcat", kind of a minor character who gets revived from time to time. In fact, the great Russ Heath did a miniseries of a Batman title some years back featuring Wildcat and Catwoman! Great illustrations as ever.

I THINK Alex Toth did a Wildcat run but could be mistaken about that.  That character was IIRC a former boxer who became a superhero and also occasional villain, depending on your POV. AND, there might be a Catman I don't know about.

usually B/C-atman has no clue where he's heading either. That's what the sign on the clouds is for, I guess. Perhaps his cars knows. Or just add in some penguins and see what happens.

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.

visit www.aRtBeeWeb.nl (works) or Missing Manuals (tutorials & reviews) - both need an update though

That would be interesting. I read the first issues when he came out years ago. Gave the Batman a run for his money.

JoeQuick has created several chest emblems and has them available @ sharecg.com.

Yeah, but I kinda want to do this one on my own. I am trying to learn how to model so I can create my own stuff.

The cape is done. I don't know if I am happy with it, but it's alright for now.

The utility belt and boots are next...

I did this one ages ago.  All the details are displacement.  As yet, still unfinished.  Click for larger size.

That looks amazing Sam. I am going for more of a Michael Keaton type suit. I got ahead of myself and added the BLLE belt for Ryan and photoshopped the logo on him. I will be making my own belt and logo soon enough.

Thanks, chaps.  Should I ever finish it, Ill post it in Freestuff.

Rokket - nice work but the cowl looks a little odd and, IMO, the cape needs a scalloped edge.

I got the cowl too big for his head, but it's because of his damn ears. I am going to rework that cape. I didn't even think to do anything to the edges, plus I want to attach it to the cowl instead of draping his shoulders, like the comic book version. I am going to start from scratch and do it all as a single mesh. 

I thought about doing the '66 version of the suit, but I don't think I can do that in Wings. Plus James is too muscular to look right in THAT suit.

SamTherapy ( ) posted Sat, 07 July 2012 at 2:25 PM

You need a morph to shrink the ears down to nothing so they fit inside a regular looking cowl.  Also, the top of it needs to be flatter, there's not so much of a dome shape as you have there.  

Also, I could be wrong - it's ages since I saw the Keaton movies - but I don't think the face opening has the little pointy bits you have on your version.

Ah, yeah. I took another look, and it doesn't have those. I found a GREAT pic of it. I am going to use that for the v.2.0 suit...

SamTherapy ( ) posted Sat, 07 July 2012 at 3:05 PM

That one is either the Kilmer suit, complete with stupid moulded nipples, or the first Clooney version.  I think it's the Kilmer version.

IMO, the best of all those was the Batman Returns version.  Looked like armour, rather than moulded muscles and they got the logo right.

Yep, you were right, Sam. It was Kilmer's suit.

Here is the cowl from Batman Returns...
