thx dt i was gonna change the tat and make it more like a biker chick tat but never got around to it since i changed the bod ;)

[_BB_]

I like the phoenix tattoo on her arm, nice touch

[batboy99]

red x:(
but on the other hand,i apologize and i wont be posting no more manips

[PhoenixRisen]

^
lol i thought it was ok _BB_ but i thought something more "real" might look better but thx a lot :D

[Le Diable Blanc]

ahem, what exactly are you trying to say about my hairdo? :o

Nuttin' :oldrazz:

people are just randomly posting head swaps and horrible diamond effects.

*giggles*

[Neto Magnus]

just to change the topic here's an unfinished concept i did for the aoa competition...i used angie's tomb raider bod but thought it wasn't aoa enough and too tomb raidery!! :D
http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i169/PhoenixRisen7/Jean_new_smallcopy.jpg

that's really great PR!:wow: maybe if you gave her longer pants it'll defect from Tomb Raider.

[PhoenixRisen]

^
thx neto actually i ended up liking her better in callistos getup cuz it was more aoa/punky--but i used the same look, that one is just for fun!!

[Nadino]

i agree PhoenixRisen...though the past 2 or 3 pages are nothing but honestly mediocre crap... where people are just randomly posting head swaps and horrible diamond effects... what happened to all the good manipers?

:csad: my Emma was in those pages........

[Neto Magnus]

yea i know what you mean. it's still great though

[batboy99]

:csad: my Emma was in those pages........your emma was great

[Neto Magnus]

Here's an Emma I'm working on :woot:
http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u164/Nadino_2007/Anna_As_Emma5b.jpg

:csad: my Emma was in those pages........

that actually looks good. I didn't see it before cuz of all the other posts.

[Nadino]

Thank you Batboy, at least a couple people liked it. :)

[batboy99]

loved,not liked,loved

does anyone know some screencap sites(beside screencap paradise)?

[Nadino]

I'd rather see work-in-progresses (with moderation of course) than a dead thread though :(

[PhoenixRisen]

i love that emma i think anna would really appreciate/enjoy it as a tribute :)

[batboy99]

if she was still alive and got an acting coach,she porbably woulda been a good emma

[Nadino]

Aww thanks PR, it means a lot :woot:
Great AoA Jean btw :up:

[spideyboy_1111]

:csad: my Emma was in those pages........

your emma is ok.... not liking the anna nicole smith looking model... and the diamond effect... is ok.. but when will people learn that diamonds only look like that when cut... and her body isnt a cut diamond

[spideyboy_1111]

if she was still alive and got an acting coach,she porbably woulda been a good emma

my soul just died.... Anna Nicole would be the worst emma EVER... maybe if she got a speech coach and learned how to not talk like a baby or a uneducated ditz...

[batboy99]

your emma is ok.... not liking the anna nicole smith looking model... and the diamond effect... is ok.. but when will people learn that diamonds only look like that when cut... and her body isnt a cut diamond
its hard to find a pic of a non cut diamond,and if anna had gotten a vocal and acting coach i think she might have done alright
also,im not saying this in a negative tone/attitude but why dont you ever post a manip?id like to see your work

[spideyboy_1111]

its hard to find a pic of a non cut diamond,and if anna had gotten a vocal and acting coach i think she might have done alright

no... if im not mistaken she didn't even get a highschool education... she's a horrible actress... and quite probably the biggest ditz ever to exist on earth.... no no no no no. and non cut dimonds are rock... its not about finding a pic to substitute for a texture.... it's about doing effects, mixing them etc... to make it not appear that way. plastic wrap, used the right way is a good example of this, essentially she should look like she's made of sparkly glass...

[Nadino]

your emma is ok.... not liking the anna nicole smith looking model... and the diamond effect... is ok.. but when will people learn that diamonds only look like that when cut... and her body isnt a cut diamond

It's funny that you said that, I didn't use a cut Diamond or "Diamond texture" for that matter at all.

[batboy99]

i get what you mean,damn gimp doesnt have plastic wrap :cmad:

[spideyboy_1111]

and find a way to get photoshop for free... its not hard to find it online

[spideyboy_1111]

It's funny that you said that, I didn't use a cut Diamond or "Diamond texture" for that matter at all.

well either way it looks similar to it.. which was my point... she actually looks more like cement in your pic

[Nadino]

Oops, I wasn't trying to go for that look :huh:

[batboy99]

and find a way to get photoshop for free... its not hard to find it online
well,i dont have lime wire or anything(i had it before but it gave my comp viruses)and ive already done a free trial,i rather stick with gimp instead of getting a new program and having to learn that

[Storm Within]

Ah hem. No, Paris Hilton is. :D:D :p

[batboy99]

that i agree on
i would much rather have a brunette or a black person playing emma instead of hilton lol
actually,if that were to happen,dont bring emma at all lol

[Storm Within]

Ditto. :p

[spideyboy_1111]

Ah hem. No, Paris Hilton is. :D:D :p

no... sadly i think paris could win a question or 2 in jeopardy over anna.. :(

[batboy99]

obviously,annas dead lol jk,but im refering to them as emma frost

paris hilton could play a hooker that sees logan and tries to get him to have sex with her,than he stabs her........actually,that stabing part is a good idea lol

[Storm Within]

Actually she probably would, I'll just say they are..equal..:whatever: :p

[Le Diable Blanc]

no... sadly i think paris could win a question or 2 in jeopardy over anna.. :(

Yup agreed. Paris sounds like she's faking her dumbness sometimes, whereas Anna was a real ditz.

[spideyboy_1111]

well,i dont have lime wire or anything(i had it before but it gave my comp viruses)and ive already done a free trial,i rather stick with gimp instead of getting a new program and having to learn that

well least photoshop would be an investment... no ones uses gimp..

[punk_joey]

why are people bashing batboys work? i swear everyone has the right to post there work here. i mean if you don't like it, fare enough, but you don't have to be so crude about it.
BatBoy don't listen to them, you have the same right they do so keep posting your work.:woot:

[batboy99]

well im fine with what i got for now
but thanks for trying to help spideyboy
and thanks punk_joey

the hilton name and the late Anna Nicole name should NEVER be spoken near a marvel movie anyway

I'm not bashing batboy's work. I'm trying to help him. It's someone else I'm 'bashing'.

no neto wasnt bashing me,he was trying to help

[Nadino]

Who cares? I mean really. Even if Paris is used in a manip or Anna in another one - its just that - a manip! I didn't know that we had to cast our models to people that 'might appear in an x-movie' its pointless to bash these celebrities. Take into consideration the work that goes into making these. If you make them then you know, if not then try making one. The manips are more than just a face, its colors, techniques, blends, cuts, layers, sources, the actual manipulation going on, etc. Like you have done already - comment on those aspects instead of a celebrities IQ :woot:

im gonna have to disagree on only this,its paris hilton,i know it isnt important about the casting for manips,its just......its paris hilton *shudders* id rather someone use spears or even nicole ritche lol
if it is someone else,it doesnt matter,but when its paris......oh....dear.....lord lol

i was never saying you couldnt use them in a manip... why? would be your own personal buisness.. but i was saying they should never set foot near a movie... use who ever you want for a manip but lol dont be shocked when people say its a bad casting choice

hmm it's interesting. but still looks off.

[spideyboy_1111]

^ya, im not digging ninja kick rogue... and its obviously a dark pic to help it "blend in" but makes it hard to see some parts... juggs legs need blended in.. you can see a white line around them... and rogue just looks odd... a punching/flying thing is more of a rogue style

http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/elwoodc/Copy-of-stormlightning.jpg

the eyes look ok but i think the problem is that you used a low res pic of Storm

[flavio_lebeau]

okay guys, thanks for the advice. Actually, it would be way easier if I simply made it to day. Guess that's what happens when I try to fit it into the movie scene...

[batboy99]

i like it,but i think maybe day or even in the evening would look better instead of night

[gap5ewl]

the eyes look ok but i think the problem is that you used a low res pic of Storm

yeah i think that's what it is here's a smaller version of it:

and the original hair:

[Deep Thinkin'!]

Alright... I've spent I'm not sure how many hours on this pic... but I don't know what to add to it. :dry:
It was hard to transform because the original pic was extremely... to put it nicely, ordinary.

[batboy99]

haha the boy george guy :p lol
nice manip though

[batboy99]

well,this is probably the last emma manip(or manip overall)that i will post in a while
http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f111/batboy99/X-Men/emmasig3-1.jpg
i think it came out good,same body as I used for the other one,just flipped and with a different head.the hair came out good imo seeing as it was she was brunette in the original pic

I'm just really, really confused. :huh:

[batboy99]

whats there to be confused about?
its my vision of bryan singers emma :)
but if youre refuring to what i did to the manip,it was pretty easy,made sigourneys hair blonde,switched the head and tried to match up the skin tone

[Storm Within]

but if youre refuring to what i did to the manip,it was pretty easy,made sigourneys hair blonde,switched the head and tried to match up the skin tone

maybe because...... i dunno.. she looks nothing like emma? and is only wearing a white outfit?

[batboy99]

well shes not gonna wear the regular emma outfit,and im not gonna put her in the x-uniform

why do you always complain about my manips?Why dont you ever post your work?not saying this in a negative way,i just want to see your work
but do you honestly think singer would give emma this costume?
http://www.silverbulletcomicbooks.com/good/images/0309/emma03.jpg
IMO,she looks more mature in a suit or even a fur coat

this is why its probably the last emma manip or manip overall that i post

[XMENfreaq]

this was requested by someone(i forgot who) and im not sure what its still missing but comments are appreciated...it took me a while to do this...and credit to (i forgot again sorry!) whoever made the head i used for the manip

Nothing personal against anyone, but I'm starting to miss the times where Phoenix and Rogue were the most maniped characters...

Well they are still the people I manip the most.
But I am very busy with some projects at the moment lol.

I will post one soon tough :D

nice job,my only critique is her pupils,they seem weird,but nice job non the less

[flavio_lebeau]

What I mean is: when someone starts manipping Storm, evryone manips Storm, when someone starts manipping Emma, it's always Emma, when one person makes Blob, everyone makes Blob. That does get a bit boring after some time...

[batboy99]

i think im the one who started manipping emma than everyone did it lol
i get what you mean though

[Le Diable Blanc]

At least my Psylocke was original in that way ;)

[MaleRogue]

And the one I am working on since 2 days will be original to :D

[batboy99]

majik,where did you get the body for emma,ive been trying to look for one because i dont want to use the x-uniform,but so far,I havent found anything good

[batboy99]

awww,please :( or pm it to me,it doesnt even have to be those clothes,it could be any i just need some good ones

[Le Diable Blanc]

Pretty cool Majik! :up:

[batboy99]

whos that girl with the gun?domino?

[batboy99]

oh ok
so shes an x-men now?i had an idea almost like that where she gets her powers back(preferably without scales)and becomes a x-man after magneto betrayed her

[MaleRogue]

http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w144/Merdin/MystiqueKurtRogue.jpg

Here is a new manip of mine.
I need to work on the morphing, but I am open for suggestions :)
So if anyone has ideas let me know

It is more like Rogue walks in the Danger room with Kurt than suddenly he shapeshiftes into Mystique ( cause it is Mystique lol ) Rogue is shocked because of that Mystique is in the Mansion, and shocked about the resemblens between Kurt and Mystique

[batboy99]

the 2 bodies(kurt and mystique) are too close together,spread them out a bit and it will look good

[MaleRogue]

Thanks on the advice.
I will certainly do that and will look how that looks and later post it.
Thank you very much

[batboy99]

no problem

[MaleRogue]

http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w144/Merdin/KurtRogueMyscopy.jpg

Okay here it is batboy

I hope this is what you meant.

Thanks for the advice,

yeah thats it,not sure about the black line though,it should almost blend together

No chance of that happening, its a prequel movie

WOW! thats amazing! you have a lot of talent! I love Storm and Rogue and Cyclops! ;)

[ThE_PhOeNiX]

the phoenix,how did you get stormshair to look so good,i could never get it to look good white

First I used the paint brush tool and used the color white with an opacity of about 20 perfect on hard mix and went over her hair like 2 times. Then I used the saturation tool to turn it into a gray scale and then i used the pin light tool with the white color to go over it a couple of times until it was that way. I used Image ready by the way.

[mierde]

^ your avvie is so hypnotising...

[ShaZam612]

Now I know that technically this is not an x-men manip. However, his mother is Scarlet Witch, so it kinda counts right? Plus I used a Cyclops Body and some Pheonix parts for most of it! and I knew more people would see this in here lol...

whoa!probably the best x-man manip yet!:up:,if i may ask,who did you use and can you post the original body?(i know the arms arent like that...at least i think so)

[britrogue]

Excellent Nate manip!

[ShaZam612]

I added Hulkling in the background...I made a seperate Hulkling manip but since I couldn't do it to make him look all green and stuff (without it looking really bad) I just added him to the Wiccan pic.

Also, Awesome Nate Manip. Who's the actor/model?

[Ultimate Movie-Man]

Colouring this line art started off really well IMO, but then it started to get a little tedious in the early hours of the morning about a week ago and my hearts just not in it anymore so here we go.

The drawing is fantastic...but it looks like it's from MAD Magazine...no offence...I love MAD it's just reminded me of that

[Vilya]

Thanks guys! i think he can play a young Nate, the actor is Logan Bartholomew. The original is an angel body batboy, yep the hands were moved :)

Apparently its from a comic that came out just before X-Men 1. I wasnt aware that there was a comic but then again, i was relatively new to the whole X-Men thing when X1 came out, i only watched the cartoon as a kid :O

[batboy99]

wel,it was included in the card game,atleast it did when i got it

btw,shazam,who did you use for hulkling and Wiccan?
is wiccan drake bell?whos hulkling?

[Le Diable Blanc]

I think Hulkling is that kid from the 4400. The healer. I'd have to check IMDb to find his real name.

edit: Patrick Flueger http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1005514/

Okay I improved what batboy and PR said to me and I think it looks much better now.

Thanks for the advice you guys :D

thanks,ok i dont really know who those 2 characters are
isnt hulkling from the young avengers or something like that
and who is the other character?

[La_She-Beast]

He's like the "Thor" of Young Avengers

[batboy99]

oh!ok cool thanks :)

[Le Diable Blanc]

Wiccan is the Scarlet Witch and Vision's son, he's a spellcaster.
Hulkling is a shapeshifter and a metamorph.

[batboy99]

oh cool,thanks,i dont follow young avengers so i dont know anything lol

[Le Diable Blanc]

I just know the basics, I don't know all the details :P

[batboy99]

lol,ive heard it isnt a very good comic series but i may check it out

[ShaZam612]

Yeah it's Drake and Patrick...also Young Avengers is VERY good. Where did you hear that it wasnt? It's linda cool though because it's hinted at in the first few issues that Hulkling and Wiccan (then called Asgardian) were in a relationship...then they hit you with it and its full out in the open kinda thing. It's kinda great in a way.

[batboy99]

what?i dont get it,theyre gay at the beggining then end up not being gay??

[spark627]

no, they are gay and a couple

[batboy99]

You've got a good eye for detail :) that little patch of hair took a lot of effort lol. The body is angel's and the actor is ......

Logan Batholomew, he's a promising actor.

Elisha Cuthbert. I liked how my first one with her turned out so much that I've decided to try and use her as my primary Rogue actress.

I actually used a few actresses. It's obviously Halle's body. I think her gloves are so like Cartoon Rogue's, that hse makes a good body to use for Rogue. It's Elisha's face and white fringe, and Michelle Rodriguez's hair.

more than nicely, Amazing! One of the best costume manips.

Congrats!! Would be nice if that was Mei.

[batboy99]

theres hardley any pics of mei anyways,plus,she wasnt even that great as psylocke

[ravana]

Thanks for the comments... as ever.

I don't usually dissect my stuff... ruins my mystique... (No pun intended.) but anyway...

- I don't know why but Psylocke is always caucasian in my head... Maybe cos she's one of the few British kickass superheroines and i'm just familiar with seeing her drawn in a 'not terribly Asian looking' sort of way.

As for Mei, nothing against her... surely she's lovely. But I'll be whipped and dragged through salt before I'll accept that abomination of a character was Psylocke (in any incarnation).

[xmenfilesfan05]

Plus...if anybody thinks something would look better as someone else...make your own manipulation of it...you certainly take the fun away from a manipulation when you say it could be better as someone else...

Amen to that.

love the psylocke manip! I also wish she had her original British body (while still being a ninja). There aren't many British X-Men.

It's much larger than this... and it didn't come out in the best resolution and I'm trying to figure out the reasoning behind it... either way. Here is another Phoenix Manip.

Exactly, Especially since his Scarlet Witch was basically mine with a different head. No hard feelings though.

I'm just going to address this once and be done with it. I don't do manipulations, I don't have the capabilities, meaning the software or abilities, as well as the money to purchase said software and use it. I also really don't have the desire to, considering there are much more talented people on here and I would instantly want to match their levels. Practice makes perfect and all of that. But I write stories and I draw every once and a while and I throw those out on here when I deem appropriate. True, I don't contribute to this thread, but that doesn't make my opinion any less valuable than anyone elses. Do don't have to be an "artist" to have the eye for "art". I would hardly call putting eye-shadow on, recoloring the bathing suit of a model, on six different photos of the same photoshoot, a valuable contribution of an Emma manipulation. It's nice to see the originality of people on this thread, but also it's painful to see what results from that. An onslaught of p*ss-poor manipulations directly related to an amazing, original manipulation. Like the great Scarlett Witch manip, closely followed by two almost exact copies...hardly original. I understand that some people are trying their best and trying to learn, but when an attitude like quoted above comes up, I hardly have sympathy for that. Thank you to all of the talented artists who contribute and put up with the conveyor belt of manipulations as well as the b*tching of members like me. I just want you to know I appreciate and value the work you do and share with us.

True, I don't contribute to this thread, but that doesn't make my opinion any less valuable than anyone elses. Do don't have to be an "artist" to have the eye for "art". I would hardly call putting eye-shadow on, recoloring the bathing suit of a model, on six different photos of the same photoshoot, a valuable contribution of an Emma manipulation. It's nice to see the originality of people on this thread, but also it's painful to see what results from that. An onslaught of p*ss-poor manipulations directly related to an amazing, original manipulation. Like the great Scarlett Witch manip, closely followed by two almost exact copies...hardly original. I understand that some people are trying their best and trying to learn, but when an attitude like quoted above comes up, I hardly have sympathy for that. Thank you to all of the talented artists who contribute and put up with the conveyor belt of manipulations as well as the b*tching of members like me. I just want you to know I appreciate and value the work you do and share with us.
well i respect your opinion than and thanks for the bolded part:yay:

I really like this one. I think the thing that looks off is that the head sintone doesn't match the skintone on the hands.
