    Nice!

    I just started creating the same character. I started with Joe Quick's Body Suit for V4 and Creature Wings Expansion pack. How did you get Jan to look so good? Did you create the chest texture yourself or is it available somewhere.

    I used the V4 bodysuit and gloves. I made the texture myself in Photoshop. I used Tequila hair and 50% Petite proportion from the S4 morphs.

    I did the texture in black and white, applied a gold metal shader to the whole bodysuit, then used the texture as a mask on all the settings so it would be matte but leave the gold areas shiny. I also used it as a bump & displacement.

    I'm happy to share if you'd like it.

    I made a texture mask for the gloves (V4 Bodysuit expansion) to give her gold palms. The boots are from Courageous, with all the straps and buckles hidden.

    Thanks Tim, I just got them. The work you have done on this is amazing, I am going to have to sit and play with this this morning and make a wasp image of my own! Thank you so much for the share on this!

    Progress made! with a lot of help and luck! Helmet by me, Hands Claymore set, and the rest a freind gave me permission to conform to M4. I'm re doing the gauntlets and I'm working out the pants & boots armor now.

    Yep... that beats my old school mish-mosh I did... I just used pre-bought stuff but the morph of Joker's face is mine and select morphs for Bats are too.

    P.S.: Thanks to JoeQuick for the Bat symbol.

    A work in progress of the Avengers. I'm beginning to realize that I have group shots of the X-Men,JLA, Green Lanterns, Young Avengers, Young Justice and now the Avengers - all works in progress. Maybe I should finish one of them before moving on to something else equally distracting ...

    Nice!

    Did you make the textures for Captain Marvel and Hawkeye?

    Are they using the M4 bodysuit?

    Hawkeye is a custom texture for the M4 bodysuit, soon to available along with Iron Fist and Wonder Man on my ShareCG page. Captain Marvel is wearing the Shapeshifter bodysuit which if I'm not mistaken comes with the texture included. If not I get that on ShareCG but can't really remember.

    Good news! One of the group here as been kind enough to lend a hand to conform my bat suit. But I keep making tweaks, so I've sent him a smoother version that I hope will work. Here are some images:

    Not sure if this really counts as rendering a superhero. It's more of a DAZ manip I did for one of my friends. First time ever putting DAZ models in the same space with a real person. I think it turned out okay. Sorta early Mortal Kombaty.

    Isi paid Hal to make him a Judge costume.
    Don't know if it was an exclusive thing.

    I was starting make some Dredd props and I was seeing if anyone was interested in free stuff as I got them built. The badge above I can put any name in (hopefully not to large).

    No noticeable cracked bends so far. Looks almost like a prototype for the actual movie. Pretty good, I say. :coolsmile:

    It works, but maybe a little too shiny, which is fine for the Burton armors.

    However, the Nolan armors were more rubbery and the sheen was less pronounced:
