Chilly, she's beautiful!!! I'm extremely impressed over the job you did. Thank you so much for fulfilling my fantasies!

HELP AGAIN!!!!

I'm currently signed up for the What If fiction challenge. I would like a picture to go along with my story. I don't mind if it's comic art, 3D, or a manip.


I know what I want done. I'm just capable of doing it myself.


Can someone help me?

Of course we will help you VL!

You need a Firestar pic, obviously, but what specifically?

If I can't help I'm sure someone else can.

I appreciate the offer, Chilly!

Here's what I need:

1. short hair, longer in the front, sort of framing her face
2. tight black pants... doesn't matter if there are holes or pockets
3. long sleeve black shirt
4. a bullet black vest
5. black fingerless gloves
6. a fresh scar over her right eye
7. Wolverine's blades coming out of each hand


I'm posting a picture of Razor in the comic art gallery. I was looking at her when I described Firestar in my story.

If anyone's up to it, take any liberties you'd like. I just need the blades and the scar.

THANK YOU TO ANYONE WHO CONSIDERS!!!!

Dear VampireLover,

Did my version of Firestar grab you at all? I didn't know that much about the character, and there are several costumes so I went with the version I thought best.
From the references I had (some of them were yours) it looked like the mask thingy was just sort of painted on, rather than a covering. Is it correct?

Chief-O

Must have missed it. Where can I find it?

She doesn't need a mask.

It's in the HM gallery. "Vampy-Spidey-Star".

Oops. I see you've found it.

What is a bullet vest? Is it a bulletproof vest? Or a vest with lots of little loops for holding bullets? (sorry, I searched for it, but can't find anything definite)

The hairstyle is a bit of a problem, I did find one good model, but the photo is poor quality. If you find a photo you like chuck it my way (any hair colour except black should do and I can change it to redhead)

Something like this http://home.earthlink.net/~tylermcdowell/VL.jpg
http://home.earthlink.net/~tylermcdowell/VL2.jpg? I just threw these together, but I think I could make them better or change things.

T, those were great. The second one's smile is a bit creepy. But that's close to what I have in mind.


I did mean bulletproof. I need to proofread more, huh?

I know there needs to be a scar over the right eye. The vest I need to figure out. Could you give me an idea what you would like changed to make the figure closer? It might help everybody even if I can't get it down.

I describe the vest as being form fitting, like a second skin. Maybe like the ones they wore in the second Charlie's Angels movie. I'm not too strict on the outfit because it's not a permanent thing in the story. She's wearing a tight black bodysuit with the vest over it and knee high black boots.

Anyone who is willing to do this picture for me can take liberties with the costume.

The important things are the blades. So long as that's there she could either be:

1. long hair and no scar
2. short hair and scar

She gets the scar in the story. If it's easier to give her long hair due to base pictures or render programs, that's fine by me.

T, I like what I can see in your first image. All I would change with what you have so far is making the top not shiny. I really do like it, especially the pose. Does that help?

Real quick renders just to give an idea.

I don't know anything about render, so I don't know if this is possible, but can the vest be less bulky? I also need the scar coming over her eye. The link below is sort of a reference of what I need.

Am I making this hard? I'm sorry if I am. I really appreciate the effort and hard work you're putting into this.

Not hard. Be easier to talk in person, but one makes due. You want a scar that crosses the eye from brow to cheek. Older type BulletProof vests tend to be very bulky and heavy as hell.

There is a police style flak that I could test to see how it works. I will download it tonight.

Meanwhile how about something like a tactile vest? In a superworld it could be made of some super material that is light but strong.

For the scar, one, two, or three is possible. Straight or jagged and placed where you want.

In 3D, we use models that simulate real object, people, and things. Think of them as computer "dolls". We dress, shape, and pose them. Then we put simulated lights and cameras that light the models and "take" pictures of them. At some point we render the picture or animation and that is when the computer does billions on billions of calculation that makes shadows, reflections, and surfaces of all the models.

So far the renders I have done for you have been quick ones that take 5-10 minutes to do. For final renders, it can take 2-8 hours.

Hey VL, is this what you are looking for? http://heromorph.com/heromorph2/modules/myalbum4/photo.php?lid=2199 I am going to assume that her origin would be similar to the real Logan so I used that for the background, I went with a shorter cut that framed the face that would be the most practical for her attitude, I don't think she would be the most feminine creature out there Hope you like it.

T, I like this last one the best. The vest and scars are perfect.


MC, That's a bitch with real attitude. I knew I needed to tweak the story more. Thanks for doing that! It's a great image to go along with the story... or future ones. I really like this idea.

If there are any changes you would like let me know; a particular pose, a setting, or something that needs to be in the picture. I can do several if you need. Then I will start the rendering.

I love what I see, T!!!
