My next guy which ill post in a few has been a large work in progress. Everytime I think im happy I find something to nit pick about. Im extremely happy the way the body turned out but the head/face is still iffy too me but theres only so much I can do with what we have so please bear with me until I am possibly able to alter him. Or if anyone see’s this and comes up with a new head/face please feel free to present it if you dont mind me adapting it.

Anyways here is my newest hero Golem

I can give that a try in a few hours. Any particular shape? Round or more square and jagged? Any particular features you want to be incorporated? or just show you what I come up with?
By the way he looks good, though I wonder two things one how would he look with open feet instead of boots and two would you mind if alongside the head I tried my hand at the character?

I see no need for the censoring, but not being a mod, if indeed one was involved?, a simple fix would be to place some minor scaling(as in scales) over those areas; simple, elegant, and effective without losing your original design.

half moon insignia. I learnt a long time ago it makes for a quick application and good ring.

I’ve still got them backed up on my computer, photobucket, and disc. I was in the works of updating them, just been slow about doing much , intentionally slowed down on the designs to flesh some of my characters out, and then find myself sidetracked.

Another great creation. Seems your military/mercenary esque style characters are my favorites.

I hope you don’t mind, but I gave your self portrait a try. Not an expert by any means, just a couple of suggestions, the mouth could be moved to the left a bit, and the hair on that same side placed under the head to give more of a turned illusion

I did take liberties, but I actually tried to keep the base elements the same. I used the leg wraps, same colored shoes and pants, black top (same). Single shoulder pad on left side, hooded head, holding blade underhanded, incorporate shadow. So though he is definitely different, he’s definitely inspired by the original. I love the look of zypping, but after completing a character’s design, I usually don’t feel like it. Whether you use the design for Nir or draw inspiration for a different character, he’s yours now.

Glad you like it, friend. Text uploaded to (character) post

BTW, a quick challenge: see if you can do a redesign on Nir Nallah, I personally don’t love it that much. And the best one will star on my group shot!

I’ll upload the text later if you like it

Neutron’s style is unique to say the least. I really like how the star was worked into the outfit

I know Jeff has these on the Blog, but this will keep you from having to go through 70+ pages. There’s alot more work here than I thought too, luckily I didn’t know that when I started or I wouldn’t have.

Anyways, while compiling, like our friend Harlequin, these brought back some fond memories. My first contest was #3 I, Robot; and then continuing without an honorable mention through the next two, I somehow was lucky enough to win #6 Animalia; since then it’s been hit and miss, with me finally picking up my second win in #34 Adventure.

I think if there was an award for most times you’ve almost won a contest I would be the semi-proud owner. Going out on a limb I think that I almost had #15 Knights to Remember, but was beat out by a better design in the form of a celtic vampire; According to Jeff I was among the top 6 in #16 Progression; “I have to admit, I was really close to picking the Yank & Reb one.” stated Jeff in #33 Twins; In the top 5 of #46 Holy Moley; Almost got him banned from the library with my #48 The Circus is in Town entrant; Though it did poorly in the poll, was included among the top 6 in #61 Aries; Once again in the top 6 in #67 Two Great Tastes; Advanced from top 3 to top 2 in #71 In the Cards; and finally in Son of Son of Friday Night Fights was bested by a great machinist and our friend DiCicatriz.

I’ve quickly come to learn the important thing about these contests is to have fun and not put so much focus on winning. The enjoyment is creating and sharing among this great community of people, the ability to bring your imagination to life, to finally get your ideas into a visual concept and my favorite part about them is the challenge they present in creating something new, usually something I wouldn’t tackle on my own.

For anyone interested in this thread, I updated the Norseman with all the info

[GuyGenesis]

Thanks for the update HK.

Has anybody ever read any of the 24 issue run of Amalgam Comics that were made by DC and Marvel?

I never read any of them myself, I have seen some of the monstrosities they came up with though, Dark Claw anyone? Getting the opportunity to mix wolverine and batman and you come up with Dark Claw? really? That’s why I started this thread surely some of the talented people on here can do better, but remember descriptions only, no pics allowed due to potential copyright issue(s).
